What The Hell?

    After I finished off in Mr. Docketts' office, I went back out into the hall to see if Camilla had stuck around. After looking up and down the hall a couple of times, I could tell she was nowhere to be found. I started walking back to my classroom and I must have looked pissed because my best friend Bo Bennett runs into my shoulder and says, "Who pissed in your cheerios this morning man?"

I stared at him for what felt like an eternity but it was really only a minute or two before I said, "No one just having a bad morning and I'm hoping my day will start looking up this afternoon."

"Alright man, if you say so. Listen Jackson and I were talking about stopping by the bar tonight to hunt some tail, you gonna be there?"

I thought for a long moment before saying, "Yeah should be there after I handle an important matter and stop by the ranch to check on everything."

Bo looked at me confused when I said an important matter since we tell each other everything and I haven't told him a damn thing about Camilla, not that it is any of his business. I must have been thinking too hard because Bo got that look on his face like he does when something or someone is bothering him.
"Everything alright man?"

"Yes dude lighten up, it's nothing I can't handle."

"Okay well I gotta get back to my classroom, let me know if it's something you can't handle."

"Okay man, thanks for the support."
                        ....................................

I started fidgeting in the chair at my desk, knowing that next period Camilla would walk through that door and I would get to nonchalantly stare at her while trying to teach. When the bell rang I got up and opened the door to stand by it so I could keep an eye on these asshole kids in the halls. When the second bell rang announcing class was to begin and there was no sign of Camilla I got worried, but then I remembered the little stunt she tried to pull this morning and I'm instantly pissed. She will be punished for this I told myself as I shut the door and turned toward my class.

"Okay class today we will be working on-"

    I got caught off when the door swung open and no other than the infuriating woman on my mind walks through. My face must be beat red but it only gets worse when Liam Masterson walks in behind her and they both look guilty as hell. Now I don't know what to say but I know Camilla can feel my eyes boring into her skull. They both start heading to their seats and sit down before I start talking again.

    "Like I was saying before I got rudely interrupted, you all are going to be reading the same book but individually and doing all the work that is given to you. The book you all will be reading is Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. Now before anyone starts moaning and groaning, I'd like to remind you that this AP Lit and you all knew what your were signing up for."

    After I handed out the books and the first homework assignment I went back to my desk and sat down. I kept staring at her and I know she could feel it because she would look up every now and then and stare at me. She looked up again just as the bell rang.

    "Ms. Pierson if you could hang back a minute or two that would be wonderful. Have a great rest of the day everyone."
