Chapter 2. The 'Wonder' of paperwork and class

Damn, damn, damn, damn!

It had been a week since I had been in the staff department of the academy and yet I still wasn't finished with all the legalities and paperwork. I barely had time to furnish half my apartment…so on top of having my official first day, I had to bring more work with me, and with only three days left to file everything. Out of all of the chaos there was only one upside. William could no longer breathe down my neck. I wasn't surprised to find students running down the hall trying to find their classes on time, what I was surprised to find, was all of the brats in my class sitting in their desks when I walked through the door.

I slid in the desk and dropped all of the crap in my arms on top of the fake wood. My eyes scanned the room, right there, in the front row, I found a mini me. I just knew looking at the petite brunette with the sharp clothes and notebook already out that she was going to be my shadow. Her pigtails were adorable though I had to give her points for that.

"Sir, I realize you must be exhausted; however, we need the syllabus for class."

God, that high pitched voice! It would drive an angel to insanity. It really wasn't her fault, but right then I couldn't take my own day let alone her.

"Miss..."

"Windour, Sir, Amelia Windour." She provided.

"I must be honest with you and the rest of the class, I haven't had time to write one up yet. I assume that each of you has been given a list of books for all of your classes by the student administration. For now just read the first couple of chapters and I will have the syllabus drawn up by the end of the week. I was just thrown into this position and as such, I am less prepared than you are." Many of the students cringed at my speech.

I scanned the class, the half who didn't flinch were already zoning out, even I could tell that…maybe this teaching thing would be easier than I first thought. If I could already tell which ones were brain dead then the rest couldn't be too hard. However, there, in the back of the class, my eyes stopped.

He was gorgeous, a little young, and not my usual fancy, but there was a beautiful blond cherub sitting in the last row. I don't mean he looked like an angel. I mean he actually was an angel, I could sense his aura . His purity radiated the room, what was someone like HIM doing HERE? His hair was long, tied in the back, and his bangs were brushed to the side, clear bluish green eyes lazily stared in my direction, even though I could tell he was ignoring me.

"Sir?"

Damn, there was that annoying brat again.

"Yes, Miss Windour?" I replied.

"Are we going to be quizzed on our reading today?"

It was a reasonable question, I had to admit that much.

"Yes," I decided on a whim. "Chapters one through four, the quiz will be Wednesday."

At least now I had a starting point, and they had something to do. I had just barely had time to glance at my own schedule although I did notice this morning that my next period was free. Yes! All I had to do was wait an hour, and find out that blond's name.

Author's Note: Ok! Chapter 2 up. Hope everyone enjoys, wanted to get up what I could while I could, can't say when I'll update again cause right now my internet access is sketchy. But, I'll do what I can.
