A week later Amanda sat in Harry's class with Marty working on a worksheet.
They weren't really doing the project and were ignoring it well they
discussed their plans for the weekend to go out clubbing. Harry sat there
watching the two of them, he felt frustrated but he wasn't sure over what,
if it was the fact they weren't doing their work or Amanda was going out to
have fun and let loose and he wasn't going to be there.
"Can we all just do our work?"asked Harry sternly. Amanda looked up and seen the stressed looked on Harry's face, ever since they had gotten back into school he hadn't looked okay, he looked distracted by something. 'Well it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why? I think New Year's Ever may of just had a little bit of a role in why he's so crumby' thought Amanda to herself.
"We're doing our work Mr.Senate,"said Karen.
"No you're all not,"snapped Harry. The students just looked quietly as Harry ran his hand over his face then stood up.
"Just do your work I'll be back,"said Harry as he got up and left the class.
"Fuck what crawled up his ass and died,"said Miranda as Amanda and Marty turned around to them.
"Maybe it's just sexual frustration,"said Karen smirking. Amanda glared at her as Miranda sat dumbfounded as Marty snickered.
"What?"asked Miranda.
"Nothing,"said Amanda quickly as she turned around.
"Sure,"said Marty turning around with her.
"C'mon fuck tell me,"said Miranda whining.
"Karrie shut your mouth,"said Amanda. Miranda sat back huffing as the others continued with their work. Amanda looked at the door thoughtful as she wondered what Harry's problem was, 'I'll come talk to him after school' thought Amanda pushing it to the back of her mind.
"Oh my god,"blurted out Miranda suddenly. Amanda and Marty along with a few other students turned to see Miranda wide eyed with a gaping mouth. Amanda had an alert look on her face as she looked at Miranda.
"You,"said Miranda as her mouth formed into a smile. Karen started smiling as Marty was trying to figure out what was going on. Amanda stood up and grabbed Miranda's arm pulling her up as well. Karen joined them as Amanda pulled and lead Miranda to the bathroom who was smiling and laughing. The class looked at them like they were crazy, once out of the class room and up the stairs they ran into Harry who was coming back.
"Where are you going?"asked Harry.
"Bathroom,"said Amanda through gritted teeth.
"Girl stuff Mr.Senate, girl stuff,"said Karen as Amanda pushed open the door to the bathroom and dragged Miranda's in.
Once the three girls were inside Amanda let go of Miranda then went by each of the stalls kicking in the door to see if they were alone, when she came to the last one she flipped the lock on the bathroom door so no one could come in
"What do you think you know?"asked Amanda.
"You and Senate?"asked Miranda raising an eyebrow.
"Me and Harry what?"asked Amanda.
"Ah, so it's Harry now,"said Miranda.
"No, but what do you think you know,"said Amanda.
"You and Harry,"said Miranda using a lovey dovey voice when saying 'Harry',"Did a little bed romping."
"No,"said Amanda stepping back.
"Her and Harry just got a little freaky New Years Eve,"said Karen.
"Oh my god really?"asked Miranda smiling.
"It was nothing,"said Amanda looking away.
"You can't tell anyone,"said Karen.
"I know, shit I knew I shouldn't have gone away with Andy for the holidays,"said Miranda,"I miss everything." Amanda stuck out her tongue at her.
"So what went on?"asked Miranda.
"I'll call you tonight about it,"said Amanda,"Promise."
"So who knows?"asked Miranda.
"Us and Marty,"said Karen.
"All right back to class,"said Amanda checking herself in the mirror.
"And loverboy,"mocked Miranda. Amanda threw her a scowl in the mirror then pulled down her V-Neck shirt showing more cleavage, she brushed her hair back then followed the two other girls out. They walked across the hallway and down the stairs back to the class where they could Harry yelling inside.
"Shit, don't make a fuss, head down and straight to the desk,"said Miranda before she opened the door. The girls quickly filed in as Harry looked over at them, he fell silent as they walked back to their desks. Amanda slightly tripped over her bag as she kept her head down, she grabbed her desk and stopped herself from going down. Flushing red she slipped into her desk and sat down heavily, as her bottom hit the seat the back legs of the chair gave out sending the desk and chair along with Amanda to the floor. Amanda sat stunned as the desk sat on a slant with her on the floor. The class was silent as they looked at what happened.
"Aje, I told you no fuss,"said Miranda before laughing. Amanda was now bright red as she shook her head laughing. Marty got up and helpped her to her feet as Harry walked over to them.
"Christ how much do you weigh?"asked Marty laughing along with others in the class.
"Shut up,"muttered Amanda.
"You okay girly?"asked Karen.
"Fine,"said Amanda rubbing her bum slightly as a dull pain flowed through it from the fall.
"The back legs gave out,"said Harry inspecting the desk.
"We figured that one,"said Amanda sarcastically.
"Girl I gotta take you to to the gym,"said Karen.
"Really,"said Amanda quietly.
"There's not more desks,"said Marty looking around.
"Mr.Senate, you mind if I just leave early. There's only twenty minutes left,"said Amanda quietly. Harry looked at her sensing her embrassment nodded, Amanda picked up her bag and her books up off the floor. She nodded bye to Marty, Karen and Miranda then left the room well people were still snickering. Once out of the class she went up to her father's office, as she walked into the office she was greeted by Lousia.
"Lousia, is my dad in?"asked Amanda.
"No, why are you out of class?"asked Lousia.
"Broke a desk,"said Amanda quietly.
"What?"asked Lousia.
"I sat down in my desk in Mr.Senate's class and the back legs gave out and I broke the desk,"said Amanda walking over to her desk. Lousia smiled and held back laughter as she looked up at Amanda who bit her lip.
"Don't worry nobody will remember it tomorrow,"said Lousia.
"I know,"sighed Amanda leaning against the desk,"It's just, I don't know. It's not the greatest feeling in the world when you break a chair you're sitting in, that's what fat cows do."
"AJ, you're not a cow. It's a mystery to most, people would love to have a body like yours,"said Lousia.
"Yeah, it's just, it's embrassing,"said Amanda.
"I know,"said Lousia.
"Kay, well I'm going to go wait in my Dad's office,"said Amanda.
"Sure,"said Lousia nodding as Amanda walked over to Scott's office. Amanda walked in and dropped her bag on the chair then left her binder with it. She walked around looked carefully at the degrees her father had on the hall and achivements he had. Walking behind the desk she spotted a picture on the desk, it was of her on her fourth or fifth birthday, she was at her party all dressed in a frilly pink dress and a childish smile was painted on her face. Amanda picked up the picture and sat down in his chair, silently she looked back at the picture. Memories of those days flooded her mind, how the fact her parents couldn't keep a normal relationship meant nothing to her and the fact that Scott was never around never phased her, to her Daddy was just too busy to be around and it didn't mean anything. Sighing Amanda set the picture back on the desk, 'I'm 18 and I think life is complicated, it's just going to get worse' thought Amanda as she stared off into space. She was broken from her train of thought when the door to the office opened. Looking up she seen Scott walking in.
"Lousia said you were in here, are you in trouble?"asked Scott.
"No, Mr.Senate let me out of class early,"said Amanda quietly as she got up.
"Why?"asked Scott as he walked around and sat in the seat Amanda had just been in.
"I broke a desk,"said Amanda smiling slightly as she took a seat across from him.
"You what?"asked Scott.
"I sat down in my desk and the back legs of my desk gave out,"said Amanda.
"Are you okay?"asked Scott.
"Fine, fine, just a little embrassed,"said Amanda.

Around a quater to three Amanda slowly made her way down the stairs to 'the dungeon', she had made a pit stop in the bathroom to check her make up and such then made her way to the stairs. Once at the bottom she looked in the window of the door and seen Harry gathering up papers from his desk so it was obvious he was getting ready to leave. Taking a deep breath she put her hand on the doorknob and turned it. Quietly she walked in as Harry looked up at her, she shut the door behind her and walked over to his desk silently.
"Are you okay?"asked Harry quietly as he looked up at her.
"Yeah I'm fine,"said Amanda nodding. Harry nodded as well.
"Are you okay?"inquired Amanda.
"Yeah,"said Harry. Amanda could tell from his tone and facial expression he wasn't, he was just lying for the sake of conversation.
"You don't seem it,"said Amanda as she walked over to his side of the desk,"You seem weird."
"Weird?"asked Harry cocking an eyebrow.
"Like you're not here, like something is troubling you,"said Amanda.
"Well would you like the life problems in alphabetically order or in seriousness?"asked Harry sarcastically. Amanda breathed deeply.
"Is it us? What happened between us?"asked Amanda. Harry sat back, 'of course it is,' he thought,'it's that every minute I can't stop thinking of you, and as much as I regret doing what we did I regret not doing more.'
"That's a number one contender,"said Harry.
"What was so bad about it?"asked Amanda. Harry breathed deeply, he knew this conversation was coming, there was no doubting it but he didn't want to have it because he knew what he had to do and he didn't want to do it.
"Well the whole student teacher thing might be a reason,"said Harry.
"What does that have to do with anything?"asked Amanda.
"That has everything to do with it,"said Harry getting up. He turned and walked away from her and from behind the desk.
"You are my student, christ, you're the vice-principal's daughter,"said Harry,"We can't do this, it's not morally right, fuck it's not even legally right."
"Screw that,"said Amanda staring at him,"Fuck it all, you said you I had a hold."
"I was drinking,"said Harry quickly immediately regretting his words.
"You don't say shit like that, then, at that time, when the deed has been done and just cut it up to drinking,"said Amanda loudly obviously offended by Harry's response,"And trust me Harry you can't fucking deny there wasn't something there before New Years."
"Don't yell,"said Harry calmly,"I know, and I, I, I have to have some self control here, you and me can't happen. I am your teacher, if we did and anyone found out I would loose my job."
"Then nobody will find out,"said Amanda.
"They allready have and to make matters worse one of those people is another one of my students,"said Harry stressfully,"I'm all ready walking on thin ice. We can't risk this."
"So all you're worried about is your job?"asked Amanda softly.
"It's not that, you're going to take shit in this too,"said Harry,"This isn't right and we can't do this."
"That's where you're wrong Harry it is right and we can,"said Amanda walking out from behind his desk and over to him, she stopped about a foot away from him,"But the impression I'm getting from you is your just too damn scared and immature to do what your heart tells you and that is not my problem. So Harry when you decide to grow up and get some balls you know where I am." With that Amanda turned on her heel and briskfully walked out of the classroom.
"Can we all just do our work?"asked Harry sternly. Amanda looked up and seen the stressed looked on Harry's face, ever since they had gotten back into school he hadn't looked okay, he looked distracted by something. 'Well it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out why? I think New Year's Ever may of just had a little bit of a role in why he's so crumby' thought Amanda to herself.
