This is my first fic so bare with me :D

It is set in Series 3 and is about the growing relationship between Rcahel and Eddie. However, there is a twist it's about Rachel's jealously of the friendship Eddie and Jasmine share.

Part One

Today was Friday Rachel normally loved Friday's as it gave her the oppurtunity to relax all weekend and try and forget about the increasing pile of paperwork that was sprawled across her desk,unfortunatley today the staff were throwing a suprise birthday party for Steph Haydock.

This meant that Rachel had to attend as afterall she was the head of Waterloo Road. Normally Rachel would be excited about the prospect of spending time outside of school with a certian deputy of her's however, more and more recently her deputy has been spending time with Jasmine Koreshi.

Rachel know's that eddie is just being a good friend to jasmine after all that happened with Michela White yet it does not help to reduce the amount of jealousy that rises within her everytime he seems them having a coffee together or sat in the staffroom laughing along with eachother.

Rachel looked up for her current position of her desk and saw that there was only fifteen minutes left of school before the bell would sound for the weekend, She let a sigh out as she leaned back into her chair and thought about what she could wear to the party tonight. She was soo deep in thought that she did

not hear the sound of her office door opening and the shuffle of feet as they made their way throught the threshold of her office.

"Hey Rach" Eddie said as he smiled down at Rachel

"Oh Eddie hi I didn't hear you come in " Rachel replied as she slowly lifted her head to be greeted by the site of her deputy

"Sorry I should ahve knocked" he said whilst smiling apologetically

"Don't be daft Eddie, I should have been paying more attention" she laughed nervosuly, all Rcahel could think about was the effect Eddie was having on her by simply standing in her office, Her eyes roamed his appearance as usual he was waering dark blue jeans his scrufft adidas trainers and a casual shirt that was untucked and crumpled.

Eddie noticed the way Rachel's eyes were looking him up and down but he thought nothing of it

"So you ready to get out of here? We have a long night of drinking and bad karaoke ahead of us" he said playfully

"Yeah sure I just have to shut my laptop down and grab my bag, and don't remind me of the night ahead I am already dreading it" she replied with a hint of sadness to her voice

"Oh I forgot my coat, i will just nip back to my room I will see you at the front door" Eddie stated as he was half running out of Rachel's office and towards his classroom

Rachel quickly and quietly collected the rest of her belongings from her office and grabbed her keys and made her way to the entrance of the school relieved that this week was over and ready to get home and start getting ready for the night ahead.

Just as Rachel approached the main doors she could she eddie stood with his back to her and he was smiling and laughing along, As soon as she saw his smile her heart starting beating rapidly and she couldn't help but smile too

She was just about to announce her presence when she rounded the corner and saw that it was in fact Jasmine that was having this effect on Eddie, they were talking away about something and then Rachel felt the jealousy rise within her

Jasmine then leaned up and pecked Eddie on the cheek and waved goodbye as she walked out onto the carpark shouting

"see you tonight Eddie,I need a drink after this week" as she walked away

Eddie waved back and turned around to see Rachel standing behind him with an expression on her face he hadn't seen before, was that jealously he thought
