Chapter 1: Kent
It was a typical day at school with Lizzie, Gordo and Miranda. Kate was mean to them, as usual. As Ethan walked by, Lizzie and Miranda glared at him lovingly, as they do everyday. Class was normal too. Except for 5th period.
Miranda: I wonder who our new English teacher is.
Gordo: Maybe he's famous! Or maybe he's a former director!
Lizzie: Or maybe she's a cosmetologist who knows what to wear on bad days. Which are my terrible fashion days.
They all got to 5th period class. Kate and her posse along side of Ethan entered class as well.
Kate: Then every single day must be a bad day for you.
Kate and her posse laughed at the supposed joke. Ethan didn't laugh. He didn't get it.
Ethan: Kate, Kate, Kate. You shouldn't be raggin' on Lizzie, Miranda and Gordo like this. It ain't right.
Lizzie, Miranda and Gordo where shocked at what Ethan had said. Kate and her posse went to their seats, followed by Ethan as well as the 3 amigos.
Lizzie: Maybe our teacher's cool.
Miranda: Yeah. Kinda like Mr. Dig.
Gordo: Or maybe...
A man wearing casual clothes came in.
Lizzie and Miranda: He's a cutie!(((
The girls in the classroom gasped as the teacher walked into the room and hung up his coat. He looked like a mix of Brad Pitt and George Clooney. His hair was brown with little blonde highlights, his eyes where bluish-green and he looked like he was about 25 or 27 years old.
Teacher: Hello. My name is Kent. I'm your new English teacher. And yes, you can call me Kent.
The girls applauded and the boys smiled happily.
Kent: I am what people call a "cool" teacher. I'm cool with whatever you do and whatever you say. You don't have to raise your hand but you do have to wait until I'm finished talking.
The class listened to him with interest. As they where loving what he was saying.
A boy in the back row, Behind Lizzie, was chewing gum and popped a loud bubble while the Kent was talking. Kent, of course, heard it. The boy didn't notice because he was listening to his CD player and playing a gameboy.
Kent walked to the boy's seat. Lizzie was nervous. She didn't know what to do but sit there and hope Kent would notice her. Kent tapped the boy on his shoulder. The boy took off his CD player and looked at the teacher. The teacher didn't look angry nor upset.
Boy: umm...sorry. I didn't know you came in the classroom.
Kent: It's ok. I'll explain everything to you tomorrow, but until then, you can listen to my speech and then you can listen to your CD player at the end of class. Is that cool?
Boy: Yeah! Hey you're pretty cool. Are you sure you're our teacher?
Kent: Yup, I am. What's your name, dude?
Boy: Nate. Nate Cohen.
Kent: Ok. Listen up in my class ok Nate?
Nate: Ok.
Kent went on with his speech and gave the class 10 minutes before class ended for free time.
The 5th period bell had rung and class was over. The kids didn't hurry to go to next period. Kent had an idea.
Kent: Ok. You guys, I want these people to stay here so that I can talk to them.
The girls were holding their breath in hoping that they would be called.
Kent: Kate Sanders, Ethan Craft, Miranda Sanchez, David Gordon, Larry Tudgeman and Lizzie McGuire.
The 6 kids sat in their seats and waited curiously to see what Kent had wanted.
The rest of the girls groaned because they wanted to stay with Kent. The rest of the boys, however, gave props to Kent for being so cool.
