Teacher's Pet pt 1
Reba Hart was sitting on the couch in her living room when her oldest daughter Cheyenne walked into the front door slamming her stuff down on the floor and stomping on it. "Honey, what's wrong?" Reba asked a bit shocked by Cheyenne's actions. "My stupid biology teacher is failing me and I don't understand why. I turned everything in that he wanted but yet I'm still failing." She told her mother still very upset about it. "Are you sure, I mean, he wouldn't fail you for no reason would he?" Reba was puzzled, she was a sub once after all and she didn't think that teachers could do that. "Mom, don't take his side. You're supposed to be on mine." Cheyenne said sad that her mother would take a person's side that she didn't even know anything about over her own daughter. "I'm not, I never would do that, I'm just saying. Would you like for me to talk to him for you?" she asked hoping that it would make her feel better. "Yes, that would be great, thanks mom." She said giving Reba a kiss on the cheek then walking out of the house.
The next morning Reba went downstairs and seen Kyra eating at the table. "Good Morning Mom, you're up quite early." Stated Kyra watching her mother put sugar in her coffee. "I know, I'm still sleepy." Reba said with a big yawn. "Why are you up so early anyway?" Kyra asked her mom. I mean if she was that tired why didn't she just stay in bed. "I have to go talk to Cheyenne's biology teacher today. I'm so not looking forward to it." She said with a little laugh. Why on earth did she agree to do it? "Oh way to go hot stuff. Her bio teacher is very hot. If he wasn't old I would so date him."Kyra stated giving her mom wink. Reba rolled her eyes at the old part and also gave her a weird look. Hmm why did she think they were going to date? Maybe she knew something that she didn't.
Reba finished breakfast with Kyra and then went to her room to get dressed. Since she was going as Cheyenne's mother she decided that she would wear a pair of black pants and a blue dress shirt. It looked good without making her look to 'slutty'. Why did she even care if it was slutty I mean she was just going to talk to a teacher. Man it felt like she was picking out an outfit for high school all over again and it totally stunk.
Going downstairs Reba seen Cheyenne who was fixing to walk up the stairs but stopped when she seen her. "Hi Cheyenne, looking for me?" she asked her daughter with a sly smile. Cheyenne walked over to the couch to sit, Reba followed. "Yeah, kind of sort of was, well ok yeah I was. Have you talked to my teacher yet?" Cheyenne asked because she really needed to pass that class. "Not yet, what's his name by the way, so I don't look like a total idiot not knowing who I'm going to see? Asked Reba remembering that she didn't know who it was. Wow what a bad time that would have been. "His name is Lance Blakely, biology, room 250." Cheyenne said making sure that her mother knew everything."Oh and he's on the second floor so I wouldn't wear heels if I were you cause man that will hurt your feet, I'm speaking from experience here."Cheyenne added even though she saw that Reba was wearing black boots. "Thanks, know I know."Reba stated rolling her eyes and getting her purse so that she could get her car keys out. "So Mom, what are you going to say to him?" Cheyenne wondered, she remembered when Reba went to talk to the principal for Kyra, it didn't go so well, but hoped it would go better with her. "I'm going to ask him why you're failing, and if there is anything you can do to bring it up." Replied Reba, if she stuck to her plan she would be out in a flash then she would be able to go home and take a nap. Man how she wanted to sleep right know. Cheyenne just shook her head in acceptance and let her mother go.
Reba pulled into Cheyenne's school, it was still quite early and she remembered how teachers didn't get there until close to the bell (this might not be true for all schools but that's how it is at mine. One of my teachers waited 15 minutes after the bell rang to finally come to class. Ok sorry about that just wanted to say.) She sat in her car thinking about what to say. I mean she knew what she was going to say she just wanted to make sure that she would be prepared for anything that he might say. Would she be prepared for everything though?
Finally after about thirty minutes of sitting in her car Reba decided that she should go in no matter what. It was her daughter's grade after all and she would do anything for her kids to have a better life. She walked in and asked the woman at the counter if she would need an appointment and the lady said just go ahead and goes because it was his conference time anyway so he wouldn't mind. Reba walked upstairs to room 250 as Cheyenne had said. She opened the door to find a handsome young looking teacher sitting at the desk. "Ma'am may I help you" asked Mr. Blakely seeing Reba walk in with a confused look on her face. "Uh yes, I'm Reba Hart, Cheyenne Montgomery's mother, she has told me that she was failing this class and didn't know why. Is there any way you can tell me please?" Reba replied still a bit nervous. Why on earth did she agree to do this? Oh right for Cheyenne, Reba thought to herself. "Oh ok, let me see here." He said while looking on his computer, wondering the same thing. "I'm sorry but I don't see anything that she is missing. She's passing; at least that's what my computer says." Mr. Blakely stated after looking at his computer. "Hmm I wonder why she would make me come her if she knew she wasn't failing. Wow this is very fishy." Reba said still would a confused look on her face.
Reba still had no clue as to why Cheyenne would do that but she soon realized why. "Wow Cheyenne did you no justice when she told me what you looked like." Lance said looking at Reba with a huge smile on his face. Reba immediately became suspicious. "What exactly did she tell you about me?" she asked immediately realizing what Cheyenne had done. "She said that you were pretty, but man your freaking gorgeous. She also said that you were single by the way are you really? Cause that's very hard to believe." He said giving Reba an innocent smile cause after all he didn't do anything wrong. "Yes I am, why do you ask?" Reba said curious as to why he asked and why Cheyenne even told him. "Well I was wondering if you would like to go on a date with me. Say Friday night at 8. What do you say?" Lance asked giving Reba a sweet smile hoping that she would say yes. "Sure sounds good. You do know that Cheyenne was trying to set us up together right?" Reba replied man she was going to kill Cheyenne when she got home for sure. There went her nap."Looks like it worked" He said with a small laugh. Reba said good bye and left. While driving all Reba could think about was why Cheyenne would do that. Make her drive all that way just to find out that she was passing. But hey she got a date so I guess it was worth it in the end. What else did Cheyenne have up her sleeve? If only she knew because she was in for a big surprise.
