Surprises in Class
Today was the first day of Theresa's senior year at Harmony University. Checking her schedule, she saw that her first class this morning was Economy, Law, and Society. While she didn't need the class for her fashion degree, Theresa signed up for it in hopes that it would give her some insight as to how a business would be run.
Finding her class, she quickly went in and took a seat in the front row. Looking around, she realized no one was there yet, and saw that she was still early. "Oh, well, that gives me a chance to read." Taking out her journal, Theresa looked at her entries from her summer vacation.
Entry 1: Meeting Ethan. I still can't believe that happened. Ethan is such a sweet guy, it's amazing that we just met at the beach, and all this chemistry occurred between us.
Smiling, Theresa sighs as she wishes she could see Ethan again. One day, girl, one day.
Not paying attention to the other students coming into the room, Theresa reads on in her journal.
Entry 2: Our "first" date: We went mini golfing tonight, along with Whit and Fox. I never realized how sexy competiveness could be in a man. Ethan and I had so much fun trying to out win each other.
Glancing at the time, Theresa realized her class would begin soon, and started closing her journal to the line: I only wish I could see Ethan again, and see if what we had this summer could continue…
Hearing the classroom door close, Theresa quickly put her journal away in her bag, and retrieved her pen and notebook.
"Good morning, class" A deep voice said, as the door closed to the classroom.
Here goes nothing! Theresa thought to herself, as she began to write in her notebook the date, and class period.
Coming up in front of the room, Ethan quickly scans the room, noticing some people falling asleep in the back row. Scanning the front row, Ethan's eyes do a double take when they run over a slim woman with tan skin writing in her notebook. Stop it, Ethan, Theresa is not here! He thought to himself as he retrieved his things from his briefcase.
"I hope you're all ready to begin our semester fresh. I hope that this course will help you to understand how our economy and law system have an impact on the society we live in. Before we get into further discussion, I want to take roll to start familiarizing myself with each of you."
Starting to call roll, Ethan glances up every now and then to meet the faces of his students. When he gets to the letter L, he glances at the name, and then does a double take. Lopez-Fitzgerald, Theresa. No, it can't be! I must be dreaming! Giving his mind a mental shake, Ethan re-reads the last name, and then tentavely calls it out. "Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald?"
That voice…why does that sound so familiar? My mind must be playing tricks on me…Raising her hand, Theresa sighs, "here". Looking up, her face lights on fire when she stares into the surprised look of the man who starred in her dreams all summer long…
"Ethan?"
