It was a new term at waterloo road and already new kids have arrived called the Barry's. Michael sat in his office reading over what happened in their previous school and why they got kicked out. All he could do was sign to himself and pray to god they wasn't going to be trouble because he didn't need the stress as he is going through a difficult time with his father dying and he getting the blame for murdering him.

Meeting the Barry's mother was quite imitating and was glad when she left as he just wanted time to think over last night advents as him and Chrissie was bonding over people not seeing them for who they are because what have they done and not understanding why they did it.

The day before

Michael: I am interrupting?

Christine: No, no I was just going through some lesson plans

Michael: I feel like going for a walk, fancy coming with me

Christine: yeh

The trip on the beach didn't feel really it was like he was dreaming he can even say the exact conversation they had

The beach

Michael: As far as some people know I am guilty of murder, may as well be

Christine: they knew they could never make a case that speaks for its self

Michael: Yeh but it's my chance to clear my name, it might yet affect the school

Christine: They school wouldn't even be there if it wasn't for you Michael, well you and Lorraine's Million, no waterloo road will shows its worth and the pupils' that it turns out that's all that matters and if you want to talk about what it's like for people to talk badly about you, I'm your women

Michael: yeh but you're taken the opportunity to put it right

Christine: I'm giving it a go, look Audrey suggest that I draw up a list of names to apologise to

Michael: What she thinks you're American or What

Christine: (laughs) yeh, you don't have that chance do you, to close it out

Michael: Watch this

Christine: I understand

Michael: I know

Christine: you know one of the things I have learnt In my recovery, that it is so Important to confront your emotions, it sounds heavy but it is true, so don't be afraid to cry

Micheal: I'm not crying, its the salt in the sea air I have always had a reaction, your disspointed

Christine: no

Michael: yeh you are your disappointed

Christine: what do you think I am American, whatever it is I got some tissues in here somewhere?

Michael: wooh what are they

Christine: my lesson plans

Michael: How good is your memory?

Christine: rubbish

Michael: no I am going in

Christine: no, no you cant

Michael: how can I call myself a super head, if i don't even try, if the lesson plans are gone then what else is there

Christine: there is some over there, be carful

Michael: ahaha I got them

Christine: well done just another 12 to go

Michael: its freezing it's so cold, I got them

Then Michael could remember hearing this wonderful laugh she let out as he was soaking wet from falling in

Then he was brought back from his thoughts when this strange object hit him on the side of his head, he soon realised that they must have been knocking for ages but all he could think about was her , he quickly looked up to see Christine standing there. He thought to himself how beautiful she looked and all the memories were coming back to him.

Michael: Hi and what can I do for you?

Christine: I just want to say if you need anyone to talk to you know where I am, as I do understand what you're going through

Michael: thanks Christine means a lot

And with that she went and it got Michael thinking that why is he feeling so nervous when she was talking to him, what is this new feeling he has towards her?
