Hope you enjoy reading


Sue had been staring blankly at the Waterloo road sign for about a minute now. Was she really cut out for this job? So far, she'd irritated the students and failed to teach them anything. She could tell that, when her back was turned, pupils muttered about her.

This made her feel even more insecure. However when she confided this with Simon, he merely dismissed her concerns and said that she'd eventually get the hang of it all. But Sue really didn't think she would. For one thing she'd never visited a school with such outspoken pupils. Usually, they just kept their heads down but in Waterloo road it was a totally different story- Barry Barry was a perfect example. She was considering just not turning up for the first period; it wouldn't make any different to the student's education. Sadly though, Simon approached her just outside her classroom which meant she had no choice but to carry on as usual so that Simon wouldn't get suspicious.

'You okay?' asked Simon in a much softer voice than Sue had expected. She nodded. She daren't speak as her throat was too dry. She tried to crack a smile but it ended up looking much more like a grimace.
'You know you can just come to me if there are any problems whatsoever,' he whispered. Sue really did manage a smile this time. The fact that someone didn't hate her for struggling as a teacher was very comforting.

Her next class included Kevin and Dynasty which worried Sue as she half expected them to start rowing like they normally did during lessons. She found that she kept forgetting what she was supposed to be saying in midsentence and stuttered much more than usual, causing an outbreak of muttering among the students. To her relief though, Dynasty didn't look like she was in the mood to talk to anyone which ruled out the possibility of an argument.

At lunch, Sue sat on her own and stared at her food. She wasn't hungry. She felt that if she swallowed one thing she'd sick it back up.

It didn't take long for Sue to finish the scrap of food that she managed to eat and leave the canteen at a quick pace. In the corridor, she found herself accidentally colliding with Princess. Sue let out a high-pitched squeak of surprise as Princess scowled at her, 'watch where you are going!'
As Princess trotted away, Sue distinctly noticed that Princess was occupying herself in buttoning her top up, a very unsatisfied expression on her face.

Frowning, Sue turned the corner to see Kevin walking, hands in his pockets, looking equally as grumpy.

'Are you alright, Kevin?' Inquired Sue, her brow furrowed.
Kevin glared at her as though she'd said something insulting, 'none of your business.'
'Kevin,' sighed Sue, putting her hands on her hips, 'I am a friend to all pupils you know you can tell me.'
'Okay,' snapped Kevin, eyes narrowing, 'I was just going to have sex with someone in the cupboard but then had second thoughts about it so I decided to stop. Happy you asked now.'
Sue gulped. Well that had NOT been the answer she'd expected.

She bit her lip as Kevin walked past her, making sure he trod on her foot hard as he did so. Sue watched him go. Had he been truthful.

She wondered whether there was a rule against having sex in a school cupboard and made a mental note to ask Simon before she realised that he'd never take her seriously and would probably break down laughing.

Sue didn't know whether to tell someone. She didn't want to snitch on someone though…

She wondered who it had been with Kevin. Perhaps Lisa Brown, she'd been quite distracted.

Then Sue gasped, looking horror struck. Had it been Princess.

Sue stuck her tongue out in disgust as though she was tasting something terribly bitter.

'What's the face for?' Chuckled Simon as he approached his fiancée in the corridor. Sue hesitated.
'Nothing,' she said eventually, 'nothing at all really.'
