Present day

I woke up to the sound of the alarm. Urgh why was I having that dream again? I quickly got up and took a shower. Ten years since I've been back to that school and I said I'd never go again yet here we are, me employed there. Dr. Chinatsu, new chemistry and biology teacher at the number one private school in the country. Who would have thought huh? Me a teacher? When I told my mom that's what I wanted to do teach she nearly feinted. Her dream was for me to become a model once I finally grew into my body.

In France while working with my mother on her fashion projects her assistants began teaching me how to take care of myself. Soon my matted hair became a glossy mane and how to properly use make up. Not only that but I finally hatched from my ugly duckling shell. I grew taller, larger in all the right areas, and a spotless complexion. I was finally pretty and I liked it. I finished high school in France then to America for college and here we are now. I'll teach this year in high school as a trial run for an actual job at Cambridge. I still can't believe I basically got a job there.

I got out and got dressed, a simple gray skirt and white button up shirt. But the way it hugged my curves was just perfect. I kept my hair down and put my glasses on before heading out the door. That was the one thing I kept of my old look, my glasses. Some say I look like a 'sexy librarian' I think? Whatever. I quickly got on my bike then I was off. The school was just down the street from my new apartment. I parked my bike then looked up at the building. Home sweet home I guess. " Hello there," a voice said. I turned and saw an attractive brown haired man with sweptback hair and hazel eyes. Not my type. " Nice bike you have there. My friend had one just like it."

" I like a bit of fresh air in the morning," I said stonily then began walking away but the man quickly caught up to me.

" Are you new here?"

" Isn't it obvious?"

" Let me show you around then."

" I used to go to school here I don't need your help."

" Oh really? Because I went to school here too and-"

" That's great now if you'll excuse me I need to go my class," I said pushing past some kids. I heard a chuckle as I went up the stairs. I felt the stares of wonder but I ignored them. I found the chemistry lab room and opened the door. The room immediately silenced when I came in. Whether it was good or bad I'll never know. " My name is Dr. Watanabe, the new chemistry and biology teacher. I also know French and English literature if you ever need any help in that. I suppose you are my homeroom class yes?" I asked and the class nodded in response. I reached into my bag and pulled out my lab coat putting it on and adjusting my glasses. " Let's do attendance then hm?" I asked.

Renji Abarai?

Ulquiorra Cifer?

Nnoitra Gilga?

Szayel Granz?

Orihime Inoue?

Uryu Ishida?

Kira Izuru?

Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez?

Rukia Kuchiki?

Ichigo Kurosaki?

Hisagi Shuhei?

And everyone was present. They better be it's the first day of school. " Ok then I guess just relax until class starts," I said.

I began setting up my desk with teacherly belongings. " Hey teach!" a voice rang out. I looked up and saw the one called Grimmjow. " So why do we call you doctor? You know any medicine?" he asked sarcastically and a few of his buddies cackled.

" A person who has earned a masters in their degree is referred to as a doctor," I said.

" So you're a master teacher?" he asked sarcastically yet again.

" I have a masters in a chemistry and biology with a minor in English literature. In my field that's impressive," I said smartly. I'm not going to let some punk take me down.

" If you're so impressive what are you doing here?"

" I only just graduated from school. The job I applied for asked that I gain a year of experience before coming to work with them."

" Which is?"

" Cambridge University," I said with a smirk. His smirk was gone and some quiet muttering began. Now everyone began talking again and I finished organizing my desk. Then who should come in but the teacher from earlier. He sauntered over and began leaning on my desk. " Can I help you?" I asked.

" Just wanted to make sure you found your room," he said.

I motioned across the room then said, " Does it look like I found it?"

He chuckled and nodded. I began typing on my laptop but he just stood there staring at me. " Is there a problem?" I asked.

" What could you be possibly typing on the first day of school?"

" A syllabus. Don't you have a homeroom to watch?"

" They can take care of themselves. Normally the teachers take attendance and grab a coffee from the lounge. Want to come?"

" And leave kids unsupervised in a room full of chemicals. No thanks," I said. I continued typing but he wouldn't leave. " What now?"

" Do I know you?"

I turned at that one and looked him in the eye. He was looking me over in all the wrong ways. " I just got back to Japan this week. I moved to France ten years ago then to America and finally back home. No, I suspect we don't know each other. Now I'm asking you kindly to please leave me to my work," I said.

He smirked but held up his hands defensively. " Very well then. I'll see you at the staff meeting today," he said with a wave before leaving. I sighed and went back to my work but then paused.

" Ichigo right?" I asked the kid closest to me.

" Ya," he said turning away from his conversation with his friends.

" What is that teachers name?" I asked.

" That's professor Aizen, English literature. You two will probably get along given that you like English."

" Ha I doubt that," I mumbled. The bell finally rang and kids scurried to their next class. Free period for me first period now I can catch up on that syllabus. There was a gentle knock on the door however and I turned to see a blonde man.

" Hiya I'm professor Urahara head of the chemistry department and the other chemistry teacher. Just thought I'd stop by to welcome you," he said.

I smiled and stood up. He seemed nice not a molester like that other guy. " I'm Dr. Watanabe but you can just call me Chinatsu," I said standing up and holding out my hand.

" Then you can call me Kisuke," he said shaking my hand.

" Nice to meet you Kisuke," I said genuinely nice. Now this guy was more my type. I can't help it I'm still into nerds. He looked around the room smiling.

" This was my room last year before I was promoted to head of the department. I liked it because it had a perfect view of the school yard," Kisuke said moving to the window. I looked outside with him and saw some of the kids were in P.E. The teacher was a woman with purple hair and very enthusiastic while leading the kids around. And Kisuke was staring right at her. Oh so that's how it is.

" What's the teacher's name?" I asked.

" Yoruichi," Urahara said dreamily.

" How long have you liked her?"

" Since-" he began but realized what he was about to say. I smiled and he blushed a little. " Well we're just friends right now. Who knows maybe someday she'll see me as something more."

" Good luck with that then," I said. The bell for second period rang. " Well nice to meet you Kisuke but it's time for class."

" Have fun," Kisuke said with a wave before leaving. After he opened the door a small stream of students came in, a few from my homeroom class as well.

" I know a few of you have already met me but my name is Dr. Watanabe and I'll be teaching your Chemistry class. Has everyone here taken introduction to chemistry?" I asked. They all nodded or raised their hands in agreement. " Excellent then we can get right to it," I said then began writing on the board and talking. About halfway through class I turned to see Grimmjow fast asleep and snoring. The class looked where I was looking and I heard a few chuckle.

" You gonna wake 'im up?" Nnoitra asked.

" Of course," I said then picked up a book and walked over to his table. I raised the book up then slammed it on the desk make Grimmjow shriek and the students laugh.

" You crazy woman?" Grimmjow asked panting.

" Possibly. Now stand up," I said and he complied. I pulled his chair away and stuck it in the back corner.

" Aw come on!" he hissed. I turned back to him for a moment.

" Tuck your shirt in, fix your tie, and pull up your pants. There's a reason we have a uniform," I said sternly before going back to the front. And there were no other problems the rest of class. Next period I had AP Chemistry with a few seniors and Szayel surprisingly. This class actually enjoyed chemistry so it was fun to teach. Then I had an introduction to biology class before lunch. I decided to skip lunch today, not too hungry and went to my old haunting grounds, the library.

Sorry had to cut the chapter off it was getting really long. Don't worry posting the other half right now.
