Yeah hello guys! I'm being a bit weird and writing this, when I'm meant to be updating my other story, but writing blocks a bitch I guess.
If you like where I'm going with this, please review! I'd like to know whether to continue with this.
The story is basically set around Jess fisher with quite a bit of Chris mead ;) All the fanfiction I've read of the two of then have consisted of him either leaving her, not loving her or being horrible. So give this a shot maybe?;)
FOUR YEARS AGO.
Christopher Mead was stressed. There was no doubt about it, he was most definetly stressed. His class of Year 12's were busy doing coursework, and the silence was perfect. He looked around the classroom, taking a silent register. Ronan Burley, here. Vicki MacDonald, here. Jess Fisher. His pencil hovered over her name. Absent. That was strange. He was sure he had seen her this morning.
He got up and slowly walked over to Vicki, making sure not to disturb the silence.
" Vicki, where is Jess?" He said quietly. Vicki shrugged her shoulders. " She's with Mrs Fisher, I think sir." He nodded, and walked back to his desk. A million thoughts were roaming through his head. It had only been yesterday when he had told Karen about the one night stand at the beginning of term. She had not taken it well. His career was on the line here. He rolled his shoulders back, as there was a sharp knock on the door. He turned to see Karen enter, looking rather anxious and frustrated. She made a bee line for him. He bit his lip.
" Mr Mead, I'm afraid the reason Jessica is not in your class, or in any other class for that matter, is that she wishes to be taken out of Waterloo road. And I have agreed." She stated. Chris was shocked. " Why?" He stuttered. Karen looked him in the eyes. " Your a good teacher, Chris. A very good one. And a good man. So, I have taken the situation into account and your job is safe, don't worry, but even after explaining this to Jess, there is another situation, much deeper than this. She is adamant that she will continue her schooling at home. I'm sorry." And with that, Karen walked swiftly out of the room. Chris numbly sat down on his chair, and started taking the register again. Not before putting a line through Jess's name.
PRESENT DAY.
Jess Fisher looked up fearfully at the big old building she had left four years ago. She took shaky steps towards the entrance. She was wearing a large trench coat, a scarf, and a pair of sunglasses. She didn't want to be recognised. Not yet. Her breath quickened as she slid in through the door, and made her way to the staff room. Some pupils were scattered around the corridor, all wearing the red and golden ties. She smiled. She remembered when she was one of them.
When she reached the staffroom, she gingerly opened the door, making her entrance as quiet as possible. Tom Clarkson, was already sitting in the staffroom, reading a paper, along with Grantly Budgen, but the other two women she didn't recognise. She took of her large coat, hanging it up on a peg, when a voice spoke behind her. " Um, excuse me?" She turned to see Tom standing there, one eyebrow raised. " Oh hello." She spoke up. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw most of the staff flood in and sit down, all looking at her.
She removed her sunglasses, and stuck out her hand.
" I'm Jessica Fisher, the new chemistry teacher." Tom smiled warmly and took her hand. " Jess.."
A nervous cough came from her right hand side, and she turned to see a figure she hoped she wouldn't see again. " Jessica Fisher." He breathed nervously, making his way towards her. She gave him a nervous smile.
She thought he had left? Why is he here? Oh my god, this is a disaster. What if he finds out? He can't find out, I've kept it under my thumb for four years, it's not getting out now.
Jess stuck out her hand awkwardly.
" Mr Mead. How nice it is to see you again."
As her hand made contact with his. It sent a shiver up her spine.
She sighed inwardly.
It was going to be a very long year at Waterloo road, she thought, still looking at Chris, as he had yet to break eye contact with her.
