The English Teacher

Part three

Betty's POV

I was tossing and turning all night. I mean Yea, I fell asleep, but like very late at night. There was only one thing on my mind. Nope! Scratch that. One person on my mind. And that is-- "Betty get down here your gonna be late!" My mom yelled. "Ugh!" I got up and got changed. I grabbed my phone and went downstairs. "Betty, did you sleep through your alarm?" My mom asked. I shrugged. "Yea, I guess." I said. She sighed. "Come on your not walking today. You don't have time." I rolled my eyes. "Fine. Let's go." I sighed.

When I got to school I was late. But only a little late. I got to class and everyone was looking at me. I was only five minutes late. I went and sat by Kevin. "Why are you late?" He immediately asked in whisper. "I slept through my alarm." I whispered to him. "Oh." "What are we doing?" I asked him. "Nothing really. Just some book report that we need to do." He said. "Already!?" I whisper-yelled"I know." He said and rolled his eyes.

Okay, if I thought school was boring before I was wrong. Or at least with this class. This makes it so much better. Well it's not the class. It's the teacher, but of course it is. I'm not meaning that in a rude way at all. I can't mean it like that, no. I just can't take my eyes off of her. I mean I do also see her look at me. Whenever she does that I look away and act like I'm working; when there's nothing on my paper because I'm to busy looking at her. I let out a small sigh. "You good? You haven't written anything down." Kevin whipsered to me. I looked at him and nodded a bit. "You sure?" "Yea, I'm fine." I whispered. "Are you two okay?" We both looked up and saw Miss. Lodge. "Uhh umm." Is all I could manage to say. "Yea, we're okay." Kevin said. She looked from Kevin to me. "Okay." She said and walked off. Once again everyone was looking at me, but also Kevin. I looked back down at my blank paper.

The bell rung and I could never have been so happy and sad all at the same time. I quickly made my way put of there and honestly I have no idea why. I just feel like I need to get out.

I walked into the student's lounge and found Cheryl and Toni sitting next to each other. I sat across from them. "Oh cousin. You seem stressed." Cheryl said. I looked at her. "No, I'm good." I told her. "But..." She looked up and stopped. I turned and saw Kevin. "What?" He asked and sta down next to me. I just looked from him to Cheryl and Toni. They all looked at me. "I'll be right back." I said and left.

Veronica's POV

One particular student was late. I wonder who. I had noticed that Elizabeth Cooper hadn't shown up yet. She came in five minutes late. I'm pretty sure I was the first to look at her. She immediately walked over to her seat. My eyes involuntary followed her. I quickly looked down. A few seconds later I look back over at her and saw her and her friends talking. I found out his name is Kevin Keller. I didn't really mind them talking cause they weren't disrupting the class so it was fine.

Not to long after that they were talking again. Okay. I walked over to them. "Are you two okay?" I asked. They both looked at me. "Uhh umm." Is all blondie could say. I tried not to laugh right there. "Yea, we're okay." The boy said. "Okay." I said and walked off. I sat down at the desk and looked back up at them. I can't even begin to imagine if I didn't get her in my class. I can't believe I'm thinking this shit for so many reasons.

1) Because she's a student and that's not okay.

2) Because she's probably not even gay. Which would suck

3) If she does like me back it wouldn't be able to work.

And that's just the beginning. I'll keep naming things just not all at once.

The bell rung and I hated it. I just wanted to keep looking at her beautiful face. I can't keep thinking this shit. It's wrong. I'm pretty sure even thinking about it is wrong. But to say the truth... I don't care. I wish things could happen I really do, but it just can't.
