After retrieving her many bags from the boot of the car,she walked towards an awaiting Eddie,in his usual stance. Shoulders hunched and his hands in his light blue jeans pockets,his pale blue shirt untucked and his jacket open,briefcase leaning against his leg. "Ready for a day of unwelcome events?" As gloomy and depressing as his question was, Rachel couldn't help but laugh at the not so enthusiastic voice which greeted her,"bring it on." Eddie shook his head,Rachel found the challenges of the day exciting and a rush of adrenaline would always run through her body. They walked through the hustle and bustle of the full corridors,towards the sanctuary of Rachel's office.
Once inside the cosy yellowish office,Rachel placed her bags on the floor and started up her laptop, before making herself and Eddie a cup of steaming hot coffee,"we've got a new teacher starting today. So could you do the staff briefing, whilst I run him through procedures?" Rachel handed him his mug of white coffee and Eddie thanked her with a smile,"ye, of course. Anything urgent?"
"Nope nothing urgent. Just the usual,"she replied before she took a tester sip of her coffee and deciding wether or not it was cool enough to drink. "Ok, no problem then. What's this new teacher teaching?" Curiosity got the better of him. Well, it was either that or his anger. "Science,LEA appointed him," Rachel answered his question whilst shrugging her shoulders and sat down behind her wooden desk to begin her paperwork. Eddie left five minutes later and made his way towards 'gossip central' otherwise known as the staff room,with a cheeky but beaming smile plastered on his face.
That's another thing, when Eddie saw Rachel in the morning it put a smile on his face,no matter of the mood he or she was in. Just her presence was enough to make him beam and feel comforted and the staff were sure to pick up on that. Especially a Miss Stephanie Haydock who has an unhealthy obsession for gossip and scheme making. Mainly for the head and deputy of the school.
