the teacher: all grown up

Did she get the job or not?

I wait for Jane still scrolling through my Instagram and making sure to like some pictures, when Jane came through the door. "Right so are you ready for the interview?".

"Yeah I think so". I say putting my phone down and looking straight at Jane." So Rose I believe you just finished your a-levels in teaching".

She starts asking questions about how I'm going to teach and what ways I'm going to change in my classroom. I start paying less and less attention more and more, when she talks, because it's just reminding me of being a kid again.

I start to stare out the window and look at the view when I notice a face staring at me from outside. Omg its that face the face from my dreams, the face, the face that I can see in my mirror, the person who probably sent that text message to me. I can't help but watch him walk around the playground the way his hair slowly blows in the wind and his eyes sparkle in the sunlight. Omg what am I saying this can't be happening, I just remembered that the man's name is Luke, Mr Luke Hemmings the teacher I fell in love with, the guy who I told I loved, the guy who told me he loved me too, the guy who I kissed, the guy who's a pedo the guy who kissed a 16 year old when he was like 24 himself.

Oh no, I knew I shouldn't have came back.

"Right Rose I am happy to say you have got the job and you can start next week".

"Thank you". I say and I leave the room and the school and start to walk home, when all of a sudden "Rose! Rose! Wait!"called a voice from the distance.
