This was the first time I came to fully know his name, Derek Watson, it was almost going home time and Mr Marshall the art teacher left home work on the board for us to do but that evening he was rushing to go home ,so he write off the home work and as he was about to put the exercise book in the bag pack Mr Marshall called him, for what am not sure only he can say.
After the conversion he rush to get is bag and ran straight through the door and forgot that he never did take up the book off the desk, right there I wanted to say something but I was afraid to embarrass my self twice for one day, you see when the class first started Mr Marshall told everyone to get a ruler but Derek didn't have one so he ask Mr Marshall permission to go outside to ask one of his friends for one but no luck so all he have to do was just sit and wait for someone to finish so they can lend him.
I said to my self this is the big chance so I won't blow it this time, Mr Marshall said that if know work showed to him today there will be no grade, so that mean a big flat zero .I did start mine but not yet finish and time was running out , I could see the fretting on is face.
I left my work and walk over to him not sure of the first word to say and that was embarrassing to me.Derek !I shout out too loud everyone stop what they were doing and all eye's was on me, whiled some students was laughing.
Mr Marshall rise is voice saying Karen find your seat and everyone else shut up! The room was silent again and all eye's was now back to the books that was a releave for me a bit but I hands him the ruler and went back straight to my seat without saying a word.
How hurt I was only I alone can tell you but just to see a smile on is face that was enough for me to say I will be alright;it was not mush minutes left but a least he never got a zero and I never get my full grade but still I got a past.
I watch him working with the little time he have left just to get a grade, even tho I wanted him to look at me just once he never did cause he was busy working but still I understand. Looking at him is my favourite thing to go but when the both of us eye's interlock it feels like paradise.
