The rest of the class was silent. He cleared his throat and walked toward the board. The rest of the class period was awkward. Every glare they made just made it even more embarrassing. After class Leah stayed behind hoping to talk to Jack. "Hey, um so Jack". She said walking over to him slowly. He cleared his throat. "Um here it's actually Mr.Salmon". He said trying to avoid contact. He kept looking at a stack of papers in his hand. "Oh sorry it's just I can't lie". Leah took a long pause. He notice the pause, and set the paper down, and looked up towards her. She continued. "I really, really like you but you're my teacher and". Before she could finish he cuts in. "And your my student and your only sixteen". He said starting her straight in the eye.
"I'm so sorry I didn't tell you my age I just". She paused feeling a tug in her throat. "I just wanted something in that specific moment not knowing anything about you, shit I didn't even know your name". She felt a tear coming, but tried to keep it in. He covered her hand with his like a blanket. He squeezed her hand gently letting her know it's okay. "I'm-I'm so sorry". She said running out leaving him alone in that room. She ran to the bathroom crying her makeup smeared. Looking in the mirror she saw a sad girl who's life was ruined just cause of one person...her own father. She dried her tears and left. As she got out she was startled by the sight of her mom on the other side of the hall. She quickly turned herself around back into the bathroom. Who knows what her mom would say if she saw her out of class. She had her back against the wall. She slowly turned her head to see what her mom was doing. She was walking out. Her hair perfectly still. Her diamond earrings shook back and forth. Her heals clanking against the hardwood floor.Phew. She then walked back to class. Next class was Science. As she got to the door the professor was there about to close the door when..."Wait,wait,wait." She yelled causing him to stop. He then opened the door. "Next time come on time Miss.Anderson". He said letting her inside. She didn't say anything but nodded once towards him. Then she walked in. Sitting by the window was Colton Smith the worlds biggest jerk. Or at least that's what she thought, but the other girls were all over him. I mean who just goes up to a girl and says hey wanna hang before he even knows their name. Especially since all he wanted was to hook up. She was a virgin, she had past boyfriends who were about to make that step with her but it never happened. The one time she thought it actually was gonna happen, she woke up the next morning with a sore neck, no pants, and still a virgin. Yeah they didn't even do anything. But yet now she has a big problem English teacher+Attraction=A whole ton of crap that is about to happen. She tried not to think about it. Colton kept licking his lips while checking her out. She rolled her eyes and walked away. In the middle of the room was the popular girls. Uh yeah, HELL NO AM I GONNA SIT WITH FUCKING GOSSIP PARTY. She thought. Turning to the corner to see Greg. She strutted past everyone. They all stared her down like dogs about to pounce on their pray. She left everyone even Greg in shock when she plopped right on the seat next to Greg. She hears whispers, but just ignores it. One of the mean girls lean over to her and whisper in her ear. "Uh you do know who he is right". "Uh yeah". At that comment all the mean girls are left shook. "Um why are you sitting with him then". Leah rolls her eyes. "SHUT THE FUCK UP". She snarls loudly. The girls jaw drops to the floor. She gets full of rage her face turning red. The teacher walks over. "Um excuse me girls is there a problem". He asks. The mean girl grins evilly at her before turning back to the teacher. Fake tears fall out of her eyes. "Yes she-she called me a fucking whore, and told me to go die for no reason". She said dramatically. You know she actually looked believable too bad she couldn't become an actor cause she only know how to play one role the insane fucking b***h! Leah thought. "Is that true Leah". Asked the teacher. "Yes yes it is". Said another mean girl. "Did I ask you?" His voice got loud. She was speechless. She shook her head softly to the right and to the left. "Now what exactly happened here." He asked her again. "I um—." Just as she was about to explain the announcer came on. It was loud. "Leah Anderson report to the office Leah Anderson report to the office". Just then she gets up. "I have to go". The class falls silent. Greg is in the corner face buried in his hands trying to avoid eye contact with the teacher. Leah walks to the office as she gets to the office she see's Jack or Mr.Salmon at this point she had no idea what to call him. "Thank you Mrs.Lambert you may go now." He says gesturing her towards the door. She leaves. Leah feels goosebumps even though nothing has happened yet. "I really want to finish what we started at the coffee shop before we passed out." He said moving closer. He rests his hands on the arm rest looking her in the eye lips almost touching. The good thing about the office room is there is no windows. "What did you tell the teachers we are doing in here." He chuckled then takes a step back releasing his grin to the chair. "Oh I told them I was gonna discuss detention for you for acting up or something like that." She looks at him. "Wait so you didn't call me down her to do anything." He chuckles. "No don't you get it I get you for a 4 hour detention". His smirk is scandalous but not the bad kind the sexy kind. You can see it in his eyes he wants to seduce her. She gives him the same look back.
