9:00AM
Tony, Michelle, Gael and Paula waited outside the interview room while Milo was in getting interviewed.
They sat along a wooden bench, all of them wiping their sweaty hands down their clothes.
"Anyone want anything to drink?" Tony asked, standing up to go get some.
Paula and Gael shook their heads while Michelle stood up, saying "I'll come with you."
They both walked along the brightly corridor, a soft breeze blowing in from the open window, something in which they both needed to cool down.
They stopped at a drinks machine and Tony slipped in 2 coins. Out popped a bottle of Coke.
"Coke?" Michelle said bluntly.
"Keeps me awake and alive. Let me guess what you're going to choose, a bottle of water?"
Michelle smiled at Tony's comment and slipped in 2 coins into the drinks machine. Out popped a bottle of Diet Coke.
Tony grinned as Michelle twisted the cap and drank a sip of her drink.
"Helps keep me slim," she smiled and started walking back towards the interview room, Tony just behind.
Milo came out just as they arrived back.
"How was it? What were the questions like?" Michelle asked eagerly.
"Yeah, they were alright. Pretty simple to be honest. Easier than I thought it would be," he smugly replied.
He walked away with almost a swagger, the 4 remaining interviewees jealous.
A woman appeared a few minutes later and asked for Michelle Dessler.
"Here we go," she said as she left her drink on the bench and stepped inside the room.
"You'll do great," Tony shouted at her as she looked back and the doors closed.
Michelle clenched her fingers tightly together in a lock as she made her way forward to the seat in front of a chestnut desk with a man sitting behind it.
The man was in 30s roughly and wore a blue suit.
"Miss Michelle Dessler is that correct?" the man asked.
Michelle nodded and replied, "Yes sir."
"Good. My name's George Mason, I'm currently the director of CTU which stands for Counter Terrorist Unit which I'm sure you knew but anyway, moving on. There are a number of positions available just now. I believe you have prepared for one of those positions so may I ask which one?"
"Well Mr Mason, sir, I've prepared for the position of Chief of Staff."
"Really? Well Miss Dessler I hope you realise that it is a big responsibility and you will have to make many tough decisions, including those that affect peoples lives."
Michelle took a deep breath and nodded.
"I understand sir, and I'm willing to put others before myself and hopefully make the right decisions to help make this country a better place,"
George nodded after he had heard her impressive speech.
"Well, I'll get the questionnaire for you,"
9:10AM
Jack entered the library and looked around for Christopher and Teri, wanting to make sure nothing happened between them.
He was sick of being second choice, not to mention Christopher was a bully and would treat Teri like dirt like he did with the rest of the girls he had dated.
"Oh my god! Look!" Jamey squealed.
Chloe looked up from her screen to see what Jamey was pointing at.
"What you pointing at?"
"It's Jack Bauer! He's just come into the library and I'm a state."
Jamey started to play around with her hair and looked into the computer screen for a reflection.
"And…There's more important things than Jack, Jamey," Chloe moaned at her.
"Right, yeah, whatever," Jamey replied while getting up and walking over to Jack.
"Hey, don't see you in here much," she flirted.
"No, don't normally come here. Have you seen Christopher or the new girl Teri anywhere?"
"Nope sorry, but I'm just as fun," Jamey giggled back.
"Right, I'm sure you are. I got to go, talk to you later,"
Jack quickly made his way out of the library before he was pounced on.
"Dayuuum he's fine," Jamey said to herself.
She walked back over to the desk and took a suck through her straw of her iced drink.
"If only," Jamey sighed.
"Yeah if only," Chloe also said as she tried her best to complete the Suduko on her screen.
9:15
Audrey scribbled down the notes as she looked through her books for the next class. She was thrown out of the book world as the door to her dorm was knocked.
"Hey, come in," she shouted out.
Kate Warner opened up and peered round the door.
"Hey, you nearly ready? We gotta fit in a quick practise before the game today," she told Audrey who had completely switched off and continued writing down her notes.
"Yeah, I'll be right there, I just got to finish these notes for my next class,"
Kate rolled her eyes. "Always working away Audrey, never come out and play. Well hurry up, we need as much time as we can get so that the routine is perfect."
"Ok Kate, I'll be right there,"
"Time is ticking Audrey,"
Audrey suddenly burst out with "KATE, just shut up. I said I'd be right there so just wait patiently,"
Kate was taken aback and immediately stayed quiet.
"I'm sorry, I just need to finish these notes for next period," Audrey said more calmingly.
Kate nodded and left the room.
Audrey began to feel bad and quickly wrote down one more sentence. She packed her books up and grabbed her cheerleader outfit, running out of her dorm to catch up with Kate.
Jack turned the corner just as she did and a collision occurred, causing her to drop all of her books.
"Dammit, sorry," Jack said while bending down to help her pick up her notes.
"It's ok," she replied quietly, suddenly going bright red.
Jack handed over her books and then made a quick get away.
Kate had seen this and walked over.
"You should really get over the Oh my god we used to date and now things are awkward stage, it's so dull and makes things much worse when things like that happen," she commented.
"Thanks for the advice Kate but me and Jack get along fine now,"
They began to walk to the gym to begin practice when Audrey gave a quick glance around as Jack made his way out into the grounds.
9:20
Jack looked around the grounds; still no sight of Henderson or Teri. He was about to go back in when a voice called out, "Mr Bauer,"
He turned to face Mr Polar, standing with a collection of papers under his arm.
"I believe you have an essay for me?"
Jack nodded, "Yes, I'll get it into you first thing tomorrow Mr Polar,"
"That would be nice since every other student has managed to get there's in on the due date. You don't have to be here Jack, no ones made you come and if you're not keeping up with the work I can easily make you leave in a click,"
Jack gulped and nodded more thoroughly now, thinking about having to write a whole essay that night amoung other things.
"I know sir, so sorry, just had a lot to do over the past few weeks, nearly finished though," he lied.
Mr Polar narrowed his eyes then continued his journey back to his classroom. As he arrived in his class, he found a woman in a grey suit standing there.
"Can I help you?" he asked, placing his notes and papers on his desk.
"Hello, my name is Melanie Myers, Nina's mother; I need to speak to you about her grades?"
At this point, Melanie brought out a silenced pistol and fired a shot into Mr Polar's head. Blood splattered on his white board and on his notes. Melanie wiped the board and burned his papers.
A man dressed as a janitor then entered the classroom to help her carry his body away.
"Hurry, we need to move fast," she told him.
They quickly stuck him into a bin and the man took him out of the classroom and made his way out of the school.
Melanie Myers took out a set of papers and set them down, ready to teach the class that entered next.
9:30
"Hey Jack," Nina called out, smoke drifting up from her pouted lips.
"Nina, have you seen Henderson today?"
She shook her head and took another draw of her cigarette.
"Ok, thanks," Jack said while trying to get away.
"Wait, I maybe did,"
Jack knew this was going to happen and turned to face her.
"Yeah, whereabouts?"
"I need something from you first," she said, her eyes glazed over as she sat relaxed on the school stairs.
Jack walked over to her.
"What do you need?" he asked.
She stood up and walked closer to him, there noses nearly touching.
"A kiss," she whispered.
Jack backed off and made his way down the stairs.
"Aw come on Jack, be just like old times," she called out after him.
"Put that cigarette out immediately Nina!" a voice came from behind her.
Mrs Bando stood looking at Nina sharply with her black rimmed glasses hanging off the end of her pointed tip nose.
"Yes Mrs Bando, right away," Nina groaned, stubbing it out.
Mrs Bando looked on in horror as Nina strolled along the corridor to her next class, turning and giving her a wink as she entered the classrom.
9:35
Michelle stepped out of the interview room to be greeted by Tony.
"Well, how'd it go?" he asked eagerly.
She smiled and replied, "Perfect,"
Tony smiled as well and shook her hand.
"Thought I'd do the professional thing," he said.
Michelle took his head and kissed him on the cheek.
"What's the point, no need to be professional all the time,"
There was a glint of danger in Michelle's eyes which made Tony's heart nearly burst through his skin and shirt and smack her in the face.
"You hear about David and Sherry's party tonight?" Tony asked.
"Yeah, I'm hoping to go," she replied.
Tony looked on as Gael was called in next.
"Cool, I'll see you there then,"
"Well, I'll see you at the game this afternoon if your still playing?" Michelle asked.
"Yeah, I'll be playing, meet you after for a drink?"
"That would be nice,"
Michelle walked down the corridor proudly, grinning as she knew Tony was watching her every move.
9:40
Christopher sat back in the chair of the common room along with the other older students of the college.
He thought about little Teri and how she pined for him.
This made him laugh.
"What you so happy about?" asked Karen Hayes as she sat on the lap of her new boyfriend, Bill.
"Nothing, just a beautiful day to be alive," he replied.
Karen and Bill looked at each other and laughed, with Bill commenting, "In other words, he's had a few drinks,"
"Shut up you two. Can't I be in love as well?"
"With who exactly?"
"The new girl, Teri something,"
Karen laughed. "Love? You don't even know her second name,"
"Right, but what I do know is she's perfect for me,"
"You mean perfect for getting back at Jack?" Bill said.
Henderson stood up and made his way to the door, turning back and saying, "Why get back at Jack? He'll soon be out of this school anyway,"
He smiled and left, leaving Bill and Karen to look at each other.
"Fancy a snog," Bill said jokingly.
"Never thought you'd ask," Karen replied, both of them laughing and kissing at the same time, both a little drunk themselves.
9:50
Jack looked at the clock in the café and was about to make his way to class when his eye caught Teri, sitting eating an apple and reading a book.
"Hey, Teri," he said while sitting down on the chair across from her.
"Hey, Jock is it?"
"It's Jack but I like Jock," he lied.
Teri smiled and then closed her book, keeping her page with her finger.
"So what can I do for you?" she asked, making Jack want to say something rude.
"Well just wanted a chat before my next class. What you got?"
"Well my next class is at 11:00 and it's P.E,"
Jack cursed inside and wished he'd taken P.E, knowing Henderson no doubt took it.
"Yeah, you should join the cheerleading squad, your fit enough for it," Jack said while blushing.
Teri also blushed slightly and moved uncomfortably in her seat.
"Oh, Chris," she called over to Henderson who had just entered the café.
"Oh yeah, Chrissy boy," Jack whispered under his breath.
"Hey, Teri. How you doing Jack?" he asked while sitting down next to Teri.
"Not a lot Chris, you?"
"Not a lot, just relaxing until P.E,"
"Dammit," Jack thought, trying not to show it.
"Hey Chris, I need to go get some things ready actually, I'll meet you here in half an hour, yeah?" Teri said.
"Yeah, I'll be here," he said back.
Teri stood up and put her book into her bag, sliding a tissue in to keep her place.
"See you later Jock," she said while walking off.
Henderson grinned and sat back in his chair.
"She's certainly a beuaty isn't she Jack?" Henderson asked smugly.
"Yeah, a real diamond in the rough. She's the diamond and you're the rough, why are you doing this to me, first you took Audrey away and now you've dumped her and moved onto someone younger, what is it with you?"
"What can I say, the girls all love me and I love them straight back,"
He stood up and walked round to where Jack was sitting, bending down and whispering into his ear, "Get used to it, Jock,"
Jack nearly punched him there and then but restrained himself.
Henderson left the café laughing and left Jack angry.
Jack glanced up at the clock which read 10:00AM.
"Dammit," he said while smacking his head down on the table.
10:00AM
