Nicki was just about sick of scout and barry interupting her lessons.
After one stressful lesson, she walked out quickly, unable to bear it anymore.
As she stormed home, Tom saw her. He was slightly concerned.
What was up with her then?
He decided to visit her house that night.
When Nicki opened the door to see him, she looked surprised, 'what is it?'
'I just wanted to see if you are okay...'
'I'm fine.' Assured Nicki.
Nevertheless she still let him inside. She went upstairs and sat on her bed, breathing slowly.
'What's wrong...' asked Tom.
'I know it sounds dumb but...' sighed Nicki, 'i feel so useless. Barry and scout hate me. They make that clear by disrupting my lessons. i have so many papers to mark. I keep receiving these weird phone calls too... what is the point of me?'
'You are the best teacher in that school,' murmured Tom, standing up in front of her. He stroked her cheek, 'if you weren't here, I'd be nothing.'
Nicki looked up, gulping and, quickly, pulled tom forwards and leaned back with him on the bed, kissing him lovingly.
Tom was surprised but glad at the same time as he began to respond to the kiss
