Flashback
"Hey Hayl... Oh... I'm so sorry I didn't mean to interrupt. You guys continue, I can just come back later."
"No look, Tommy I didn't mean to... it just sort of... happened and I am so sorry..." "Give it a rest ok Hayley it doesn't matter whether you wanted to hurt me or not. You did ok? Now just...just let me go and by all means continue. I'm sure Ethan wants to. Enjoy."
"Dr. O... I...Hayley is right...um... it just kinda happened. Nobody wanted it to and if you could..." Ethan began but Tommy cut him off saying "Save it, ok Ethan."
Tommy stormed off.
End Flashback
Tommy had spent the entire night replaying yesterday evening's events over and over again in his head. He was still processing.
He honestly didn't understand why Hayley had cheated on him. He thought he was a good boyfriend. A couple of other girls he had dated had said he was an amazing boyfriend but he had never, ever come close to feeling the things, he did when he was with Hayley then with anyone else.
He had believed they could last that maybe they would be the real deal. Yesterday evening's events obviously proved him wrong.
He hauled himself out of bed, took a shower, made a coffee (which only reminded him of Hayley), grabbed his quiz for the kids and got into his jeep.
The entire way to school he was thinking about Hayley and going over every minuscule detail about their relationship.
He didn't really know what he was searching for, perhaps just some indication that Hayley had showed that would suggest she was unhappy with their relationship.
By the time this project proved unsuccessful he had reached the school. He grabbed the tests and walked to class.
When he reached, he allowed himself a tiny smile. While his mind had been occupied with Hayley he had, unintentionally reached early to class.
He waited while the students all slowly trickled in. He noticed Kira coming in, she was looking worried about something. He made a mental note to ask her what it was later on.
When everybody had arrived he said," Well I have a surprise for you guys. It's a pop quiz."
The entire class groaned. "Don't worry guys, it's not that bad. I'm confident that all of you will pass...hopefully," he added at the end of the sentence.
He passed the papers and watched as everyone started filling in the answers. His eyes were particularly drawn towards Kira.
He had no idea why but he caught himself thinking, "Man she is so beautiful." He mentally slapped himself.
He shouldn't be thinking about her this way. He was her teacher and she was her student. A very good looking student. Arghh! There it was again.
It was illegal think like that."But in just a little while it won't be because she's going to turn eighteen and graduate. Then you'll be free to be with her." Man, where was all this coming from?
He decided after school he desperately needed a drink.
