Jack's and Elizabeth's love story

CHAPTER XVI | MEET PETER AND...

ELIZABETH'S POV
    That day the sun was shining brighter than ever. There was only good news, at least for me. Two days had already gone from the day of the operation. It was 6AM and I felt like I had slept a whole day. I woke up with a smile on my face, and started thinking about how wonderful my life was. I turned my head to see Jack by my side, holding me and in his deepest dream. Even though I was very comfortable, I stood up and walked silently to Peter's crib. I saw our beautiful baby sleeping peacefully, until I left the room and he started crying. I went inside his room for the second time in 10 seconds. I was holding him when I felt Jack's hands holding my waist. We let everything stay like that for some time, and I could see him watching happily our baby son.
-I can't believe this is my life. Everything is perfect Elizabeth. I don't know what I did to deserve such a beautiful kind and perfect wife, and a precious little son- Jack said with a smile from one ear to the other one.
- I love you Jack.
-I love you more Elizabeth- he said before kissing me.
-Even though I would love to stay here with you, I have to make breakfast, get Peter ready to meet the children, get dressed, and a lot more other things.
-No problem, I will make breakfast- he said trying to convince me to stay longer.
-Thank you for trying, but we don't have the best experiences with you cooking- I said after I let out a soft giggle.
-Well, I can get Peter ready
-That's a very good idea, thank you Jack.
    I kissed him and then left the room.
    Like usual, I cooked some eggs and bacon, and then poured some orange juice in two glasses. Then Jack went down the stairs, and very fast, sat down on the chair.
-It smells delicious
-Thank you- I said- I don't think I'm going to be able to teach if the kids meet Peter.
-Don't worry Elizabeth, you always find a way. But it's true, it's going to be hard having such a beautiful baby around-he said, and that made us both to smile- If you want I can pick him up.
-Oh, that would be perfect, but isn't that a problem?
-It's never a problem if you or our son are involved.
    Once we finished breakfast we did everything we had to do and then went to school. We arrived and I kissed Jack goodbye, left Peter inside, and then rang the bell. Everyone started saying hello and went inside, and stayed silent, which was suspicious, because they never did. Of course I turned around and saw all the students in a circle around Peter. I went to the circle and said
-Meet Peter
    For five seconds everyone was quiet staring at him, but suddenly Anna's voice broke the silence, and once someone starts talking, everyone does. They were for 3 minutes exclaiming how beautiful, cute and tiny he was. During that 3 minutes I decided to go and close the door, but before I could close it I saw a little boy with his mother running towards the school.
-Is this the school?- the woman said tired of running
-Yes, I'm Miss Thornton- I said
-I'm Sophie and this is my son George.
-Nice to meet you- I said- Hi George, do you want to come in?- I asked, but he hid behind her mother's leg
-Go George, it's okay. Goodbye Miss Thornton, thank you.
-Goodbye.
    He was a very little boy that had blonde hair and blue eyes. I stand in front of my desk and said:
-Okay children, go to your seats- I said in a loud voice- I want you to welcome George.
-Welcome George- They all said in the same tone.
-George, you can seat there, in the front- I said, and then he nodded and went straight to his seat.
-Okay today we will start with literature- I announced, but of course everyone started complaining.
    After 15 minutes Peter started crying, and I started wondering where Jack was, but in that same second Jack went in the school to pick up Peter.
    Some minutes passed and it was already time for recess so I said, like always
-Time for recess, you, may go outside- I shouted while ringing the cowbell.
    Everyone went running outside, but George stayed inside, looking down to his feet.
-George, come here- I said, and he came to me, still looking down.
-It's your first day, and they are always hard, so don't worry if you don't make new friends. Why don't we talk for a while and get to know each other?
-Okay- he said very softly.
-How old are you?
-Five, but in one week I'm turning six- he said and finally lifted his chin
-Wow, are you excited?
-Yes- he answered with a very big smile.
-And do you know how to read?
-I'm not so good at it, but I do.
-Wow, that is good for such a young boy- I said surprised- And do you know how to add or substract?
-Sub what?- he said confused
-Substract-I said laughing- we can stay after school and I will teach you, okay?
-Okay
-We'll see if your mother agrees too. If you want you may go outside- I told him
-Goodbye
-Goodbye George
    First I thought he was shy, but he really wasn't, actually, we had had a conversation in which it seemed like we had known each other for years. Then I decided to go outside and see how everything was going, and I saw him sitting far away from the other children, lying on the floor, watching the clouds go through the sky. Then I had an idea, I told Opal and Cody to go to talk to him. I chose Opal because she is cheerful, generous and almost his age, and I chose Cody because he was kind, peaceful, and a boy, like him. After I talked to them I saw them running to the place where George was. I went closer to see how it was going.
-Hi I'm Opal and this is my friend Brownie, and he is a very good bear.- she said excited, as always
-Hello, I'm Cody- he said stretching his hand- Do you know how to play baseball?
-No.
-Great, I can teach you!- he said excited
    George looked at me to see if it was right, and of course I told him to go:
-Okay-he said
-Great, Opal you can come too if you want- he said smiling.
-Only if Brownie can go.
- Why not?
-Thank you Cody.
    The three of them went to together to play for a while, until recess was over. When everyone went inside George came to me and said:
-Can I sit next to Cody and Opal?- he said with a soft voice
-Yes, you may, actually, It's time to change everyone's seats- I said loudly.
    At that moment I saw everyone hugging their partners like it was the last time they would see them, which always made me laugh. Once I assigned everyone a seat we continued with the class.
