Professor Hollywood

Chapter 2: Major Trouble

A/N: Alexander on top ->

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"-ex, -lex, ALEX!"

I shoot up and grab my ears in pain.

"WHAT THE FUCK NATALYA" glaring over at her I almost slap her for yelling in my ears a second time today.

She sits on the floor with an innocent look on her face and grabs my hand. I glare at her then look out the window. Why is it so light outside already? I immediately whip out my phone and jump from the couch.

"WHY DIDNT YOU WAKE ME UP EARLIER I HAVE A CLASS TO TEACH IN 10 MINUETS!"
I shoot up from the couch and shake Nat off of me. I hurriedly grab my computer and lesson plans. Slipping on my shoes while running out the door, I call my assistant and tell him to let the class know I'll be running late and to stay put. This day doesn't look good.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"And that concludes today's lesson, remember to turn in your essays by 12 tonight or I'm failing all of you."

I hear a chorus of groans in reply and rumbles as the students put their supplies away. I grab my laptop and notebook and head to my office. No one really comes into my office after classes and I'm hoping no one will toda-

"Professor? I made some cookies the other day and I thought I'd give some to you because you're my favorite teacher on campus."

I reluctantly look over to see a couple girls by my door who pushed one of their friends into my office. I sigh deeply while resting my head in my hand.

"Thank you, however as a professor I'm not allowed to have affiliations with any of my students."

Disappointed the girls walk out of my office comforting their one friend. I feel bad for turning away gifts but ever since the university found out about "Natalya" they put restrictions on me. I'm not even allowed to accept teacher appreciation gifts anymore, even if they have nothing to do with bribery to meet Nat.

Reluctantly I get up from my chair and close my office door. I sit down on my small sofa, grabbing one of the many mounds of paperwork and start the hell that I've been avoiding all week.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Right while I was in the middle of my paperwork, I get a very annoying phone call from the chancellor. She says she wants a meeting with all the English professors in half an hour in her office.

I groan after hanging up the phone, grabbing my computer and briefcase. Knowing her, we'll have a long lecture about how she wants to shut down the English department. She can't however, because as much as no one takes the English major in this science-based school, it's a requirement for students to take English.

Walking up to the room of pointless lectures greeting my fellow teachers, everyone has the same look. The temptation to flee back to our caves and continue our overdue work, but we press on into the office of lectures for hours.

You can definitely tell that this office belongs to the chancellor. Rules hung up all over the walls, trophies in a case by the door, and a big desk with her name on it. We all take seats around the small round table in the middle of the room in front of her desk.

Ms. Lauri, or loudmouth as us teachers call her, turns around in her chair as we finish sitting down and glares at us. She stayed silent tapping her fingers on the desk and moving her glare from one of us to the other.

"So why did you call us together Ms. Lauri?"
One of the teachers speak up with slight annoyance in his voice.

Loudmouth glares at him, then clears her throat.
"I've called the English department here today to talk about some 'issues' we've been having with classes being too full, specifically ONE class."
She looks over to me as she says One class.
Oh, dear GOD not again...
~~
We spent the rest of the three hours of lectures having Loudmouth telling us off about how useless our major is and how annoying my class is being overflowed with students wanting to take it.

We're finally released around 8 pm. Everyone bolted out of that office faster than you could say Shakespeare. As for me, Loudmouth wanted to lecture me longer than she already did.

" Mr. Westcott, I have some business to talk to you about."

I groan slightly and shut the office door I was about to walk out of.
"Of course, Ms. Lauri what can I do for you?"
So much attitude is in my voice, but She can't sense a nice complement from a rude one if it smacked her in the face.

"You're having too many requests to join your class" She states.

"It's not my fault people want to take my classes what am I supposed to do about it?"

"I'm going to have you take on another general course."

"That'd make me have 7 classes in total Ms. Lauri! I can't prepare for that many classes in one night! 6 is nearly impossible but 7 I can't do!" Angry and annoyed that she keeps making me take more classes than is humanly possible I raise my voice.

"If you cannot then quit or I'm going to fire you." Loudmouth says As-a-matter of fact like.

Defeated I reluctantly agree and sulk back to my classroom.

(I've never been to college, so I don't know how the classes work so sorry if it isn't "correct", but this is my story so HA! Jk I love you all 😚)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Slamming my briefcase on my desk I scratch my head vigorously in frustration.

"DAMN IT!" I scream and slam my hands on my desk.

She's after me I just know it. She just wants me to quit because she knows if she fires me a hoard of students and parents will be on her ass.

If she can get me to quit then she could shut down most of the English departments and just have it up for generals, then the collage will go back to being a science-based university.

I slide down in my chair and grab some of my lesson plans I made for my two other general English classes. I could probably get away with using most of these again, however that's not my style. One of the reasons students take my classes, other than this stupid face and Natalya, is because I never teach the same lecture twice. Now I might have to break that perk because of Loudmouth. Fantastic.

I shuffle through my past lectures and find a couple I could reteach, putting them to the side I work on my actual lectures and upcoming exams.

"I LIKE BIG BUTTS AND I CANNOT LIE"

"FUCK!" I grab my phone and reject the call. Nat must've changed my ringtone... again.
I look at who was calling and big surprise it's the one and only...

"I LIKE BIG BU-"

"What do you want?"

Giggling comes from the other end of the line.
"Do you like the new ringtone I set?"

I roll my eyes in annoyance, "Don't touch my phone Nat, especially my ringtones it's obnoxious and childish. Now what did you want?"

"You're no fun! But why aren't you home yet?! I have to leave for Paris in two hours and you need to drive me."

"I don't need to drive you anywhere, besides your manager always picks you up anyway." I look at the time. 12:40 am, great.

"I told him not to pick me up so you have no choice!"

"Natalya you piece of SH-"

She hung up, fan-fucking-tastic. I shove my papers into my briefcase and head out.

What do you guys think of Natalya? Is she being a jerk to Alexander or just a girlfriend wanting attention??
