1 – De Nile Is A River In Egypt
After managing to avoid Jo all morning, Steph decided she needed her morning hit of coffee and headed towards the staffroom. As she walked through the door she saw Jo, stood with a massive mug of coffee smiling smugly over the top of it as the blonde walked into the room.
"Ruby, what are you doing?"
"Needs must, sorry!" Ruby said unplugging the coffee machine and putting it back into its box.
"Great…just great." Steph muttered to herself and plonked herself into a chair next to a as normal miserable Grantly.
"What do you recon Steph, are these real or man-made?" Grantly asked holding up the magazine, a page full of women's breasts suddenly appeared in her face.
"Grantly, I have no interest whatsoever in women's breasts!" Steph exclaimed, feeling although everyone was watching her.
"Right, well I'm off to teach some bloody year 10's how to use a computer…as if they don't already know." Grantly stated as he got up and headed out of the staff room, slowly everyone else followed until it was only Steph and Jo left grabbing their bags.
"Have you told anyone what happened between us the other night?" Steph questioned Jo.
"No, but hiding yourself away from everyone isn't the answer."
"I'm not hiding away, I'm not in the closet, and I'm not anything... I'm normal! The other night was a drunken mistake, a very drunken mistake." Steph said trying to convince herself more than anyone else.
"Okay Steph, I'm sorry that you can't come to terms with yourself and how obviously the other night didn't mean anything to you. See you around – oh and I need those coursework marks by lunch." And with that Jo walked out of the room, Steph grabbed her folder and walked down the corridor oblivious to the hurt she'd just caused.
