Lorraine's P.O.V

So we arrive at school… on time and Nikki pulls up next to my car and we both jump up and rush to the staffroom. Today of all days we have a staff meeting that Michael called. With it being our last day I suppose its just a warning to watch out for students there had been a few incidents with drugs this past few weeks we figured it was Fergal Doherty but now he has left and they're still in circulation we have to be on the lookout for other possible dealers.

"Nice of you two to join us this morning" Michaels voice goes through me sometimes, I feel like telling him to give it a rest but I just continue on.

I walked over to make coffee and Nikki joined me. We were whispering in the corner and I burst out laughing, ofcourse the whole work forces attention was now directed at us and Michael coughed.

"something you would like to share with the rest of us ladies?" Fuck Michael can be a right prick when he wants to be, one things for sure he still treats me like a troubled teenage kid!

"no Michael nothing to share, just discussing … stuff" Lorraine takes it up a notch, all eyes still on us, she grabs my bum and I jump and shriek and of course eveyone's attention is on us now

"for god sake Lorraine what is up with you this morning your acting like a student, not a member of staff!" I look at Nikki in a scowling manner and turn to address Michael

"sorry dodgy ankle I fell yesterday and these heels aren't exactly helping any, and im not acting childish, you just need to lighten up Michael!" His face just says it all, he's usually the one telling me to lighten up. Today's different though ive Nikki by my side and im feeling a little adventurous.

"well are you going to continue the meeting or are you all just going to gawk at me all morning?"

Michael directed his gaze back at the rest of the staff "right s be on the look out any weird conversations, weird behavior any sign what-so-ever report back to me we need to find the dealer and sort this all out before it gets serious."

I turn to finish making my coffee and Nikki is laughing at me "what so funny?" She looked at me with that gleam in her eye "you just now, dodgy ankle? Last time I checked your ankle was at the bottom of your leg!" I hit her playfully on the arm "well it was the first thing came to mind, what was I meant to say sorry Lorraine just grabbed my ass, yeah it would have went down a storm!" Nikki burst out laughing

"your right, it just had to be done though I couldn't help it" she continued to giggle "don't worry il get you back for that! and on another note meetings over, shouldn't you be getting to class?"

Everyone else had left the staffroom, there was just me and Nikki left.

"Nope free period, the students in the PRU refuse to do work on the last day of term anyway so il be stuck watching movies all day knowing them lot!"

"Well saying you have free period how about we chill here for a while, no one's about may as well, that's if you don't have any work to do?"

Lorraine took a drink out of her mug "I actually have a few e-mails to send but you welcome to keep me company in the office? Toms got classes all day so he won't be dropping in at any point"

Spending first period with Nikki was nice just hanging out talking, it didn't take her long to send out e-mails and we spent most of the time chatting just general chat. Then she had to return to classes. I really wish she didn't have to but I suppose I should let her go before she's late for class?

"okay you better go before your late, the kids will be causing havoc if you not there when they get round" she looks s pleased as I do at the idea of getting back to reality "yeah suppose I should or I could say im not felling too good and get one of the other teacher to cover me for a class or two"

Nikki leans in and kisses me; god I've missed this even though it's only been an hour since we last kissed. It doesn't seem forced, I feel so calm and at peace in her arms which are comfortably rapped around my waist and mine around her neck.

I regrettably break off from the kiss "no you better get back to the PRU someone will figure something's going on if you're feeling sick and I'm nowhere to be seen, it would be something I would like to try and explain!"

Lorraine smiles and I know right away she's going to have some sort of smart ass reply or something really cheesy to say "im sure I could think of a few excuses" I laugh "yeah im sure you could but you've got 5 minutes before your class starts so you better get a move on!" she looks at me with those beautiful brown eyes and now I cant help myself I just have to kiss her again

The kiss deepens and begins to heat up, I run my hands down her back and I lift her shirt out of her trousers, I can feel her smile so I take it up a notch and I put my hand up her shirt and run it over her toned stomach. I can feel her moving in closer her hands now in my hair. Stepping it up again I move my hand up her shirt and I grab one of her breasts, I can feel her smile getting even bigger and a breathy laugh. I know she's getting really into it she's moving her hands down my back and they're place firmly on my ass.

I break off the kiss and move to grab my mug I walk towards the door but shes still standing there in shock "right Miss Boston, tidy yourself up you've got a class to be teaching in less than two minutes" I wink at her and leave.

Nikki's P.O.V

Fucking can't believe she just done that. God she really does know how to get me all worked up. I just know this is payback for this morning. I won't at all be able to concentrate today just thinking about how amazing she is, she's still a cow for leaving me standing there after what she did but none the less words cant describe how much I have fallen for this women.

I tuck my shirt back in and fix my hair back into its usual shape. Just as im about to leave my phone goes off in my pocket

Lorraine mobile

Told you Id get you back for your little stunt this morning, enjoy teaching xx

I cannot believe her, I bet she's feeling pretty smug right now but mark my words two can play at that game so it's well and truly on.

I knew you were up to something! Its okay your not getting away with it, you should quit while you ahead cause this could last a very long time! Xx

I put my phone away as I approach the PRU and ofcourse im late and they're all there waiting on me

"aiya Miss what has you so late? You look a bit flustered" of course Barry would have something to say

"right Barry cool it, it's the last day of term behave for just one day at least!" of course innocent wee Barry never does anything wrong

"aye aye captian, was just saying you look a bit .. flustered, that's all just stating the obvious nothing wrong with that is there?" I really feel like slapping him, I cant be that flustered that its noticeable? Yeah im sure there's a massive smile on my face, why wouldn't there be?

"no im sure theres not Barry but if you worried about your school work as much as you are stating the obvious you would be flying! So keep you mouth zipped and just mind your own" Sarky little shit, I need to be careful around him especially when im texting Lorraine or talking to her. Its like he knows something, but there's no way in hell he could know anything.

This day is actually dragging it feels like it should be the end of the day but its not even break time. The class has been really quiet today they haven't talked much, I should just let them watch movies all the time if I thought it would keep them quiet.

Eventually the bell rings for break but I decide to sit in the class I couldn't be bothered standing in the staffroom taking to the other teachers, hearing about Christine trip to paris that's coming up, how exciting!

I pull out my phone and go to text Lorraine when I hear a voice

"texting ya girlfriend are ya miss?"

"Barry its break time you should be outside not sitting in here" im not going to lie he scared the life clean out of me there thought everyone was away

"how is Miss Donnegan? Didn't see her about this morning" I play it dumb to find out everything he knows

"Miss Donnegan? I don't know how she is haven't really spoke to her this morning" he looks at me and smiles

"not what ive heard, I heard you two came in together this morning, late. And you seemed really … close was the word used." I am starting to get angry, how does he know all this, only the teachers were around this morning when we came in, I don't want to give everything away. So … I dig a little further to see where he heard this from

"and where would you have 'heard' this Barry? Because I have to tell you, your sources aren't very reliable!" I smile, mainly to show I have nothing to hide but with Barry you have to be one step ahead be that bit more cunning

"that's not what Miss Mulgrew has in mind! She reckons theres something going on between you and Miss Donnegan. You both came in late… together, you both seemed closer than you were last week and according to Miss Christine Mulgrew your fucking the boss!" oh his smug litte face, im temped to hit him a dig, wipe that stupid little grin of his fucking face.

I laugh… nervously. I didn't think anyone would pick up on it but I have to play it off as stupid rumors, Lorraine isnt ready for this to all come out like this she's only really coming to terms with actually being gay! "Barry you know its wrong to spread rumors and it was wrong for Miss Mulgrew to start any sort of rumor of that sort, she's possibly got the wrong end of the stick and I will talk to her about it now if you don't mind it's still break time and Im going to get some coffee, you've for 10 minutes left of break go outside and enjoy it!"

I rush to the staff room to find Lorraine talking to Michael and Christine speaking to Tom. As soon as I walk In a few of the teachers are looking at me I hear a few whispers and they all seem to be directed at me, and im not just being paranoid the whole room went quiet, then this litte whisper from Audrey "Christine I see what you mean I never picked up on it before you said" Christine shakes her head and all eyes are now on me, how many more people has she told!, Lorraine needs to know but I can exactly pull her out of the staffroom to talk so I walk out and into the closest classroom and I ring her

Lorraine we need to talk make your excuses and get out of there, im in the cooler

Why whats up?

Just come here I will explain to you, I promise you now this is important you need to hear this

Okay give me 1 minute

I hang up and hope to high hell that Lorraine doesn't flip out I need to help her keep her cool.

Lorraine's P.O.V

I hang up the phone and I excuse myself from Michaels company. I hope Nikki's okay, she didn't seem herself .

I walk to the cooler which is only a few meters away and Nikki's sitting at the desk phone in hand, looking rather worried so I walk in and I begin to talk

"hey babe whats up is everything okay? You seem a bit on edge" I move closer to her to hug her but she pulls away and walks away

"Barry seems to think he knows everything about us. According to certain sources, im fucking the boss"

"wait! Barry? Where did he hear that, his sources at a little wrong but still?" I laugh a little bit I still think it's weird that we aren't even properly going out and there's already stupid rumors

"yeah his source was way out of line and had no right to spread our business" Nikki seems more irritated than I am at the moment and im guessing she knows who his source was

"right so I suppose you know who his source is, who was it then? His buddy Steve – O!" im making light of the whole situation but Nikki's at breaking point she's doesn't seem to be getting the jokes

"your funny Lorraine but where you not the one that wanted to keep this a secret last night? You didn't want anyone here knowing you business? Yeah well that lasted long because Christine has it in her mind that we are sleeping together and the students have heard her spreading rumors and it seems to be catching on pretty quickly, he's somehow known from 2nd period when I got to the room he was dropping hints. Look if your willing to just let this drop then so am I but Christine needs to be sat down and told she cant say what she wants without have any evidence to back it up, its going to have spread by the end of break so I reckon we call Christine in with Michael and sort this all out, there's no other way, we can play this morning of as being friendly, Michael needs to know nothing, but Christine needs put in her place!"

I guess she's right in a way, Christine mouthing off in front of students wasn't a smooth move, I don't mind everyone knowing its not like im ashamed to be with Nikki. Christine does tend to have a bit of a mouth on her, I know i … we are going to get a tough time from the staff and students but at the end of the day we are both adults and she makes me very happy. If they don't like that im more than happy to start handing out people's p45's!
