A/N: Hey everybody…its like 12:30 and I was triggered by a very sudden flashback at the mention of what happened this year…

Kate Todd, woke up the next morning… she'd had another nightmare last night…

FLASHBACK

"Hey Kate, wanna come over to my house this afternoon?" Kate's friend Lizzy called from across the Hall

"Yeah, If you'll help me with some Pre-Algebra…this stuff is sooo boring!" Kate called back.

40 mins Later

"You ready?" Lizzy asked as she came up behind Kate who was putting the rest of her stuff in her locker.

"Heck yes I am, lets go!" She said racing her friend out of the school, and around the corner, where her and Lizzy's houses were. The ran into Kate's house to tell her mom that she was going to go play when her mother called her in from the kitchen.

Even without the Secret Service training she would get in the future, Kate knew something was terribly wrong…her mother was in tears, and the newspaper was in one hand. Her mom never read the papers.

"Mom, I swear I really didn't do it this tim-" Kate started.

"Caitlin, dear, do you know Anna Mcphearson?" her mom asked using a tissue to wipe her red eyes.

"Yeah, shes a real-" once again she was cut off by her mother.

"Your Pre Algebra teacher Mr. Gordon, tried to lure her to a hotel 2 days ago." Her mother said tears starting to flow again.

"What? Why? Mr. Gordon, may have some moody times, but he's usually pretty nice!" Kate asked confusion and shock eminent on her face.

"It says he was involved with child pornography—do you know-"

"Yes mom, I know what porn is, continue," Kate said brusquely, wanting reasons…

"He was found by a police officer, when the girl never showed up, and had called the police. He had condoms, and a video recorder."

"Wow, that's reallllllllllly unexpected," Kate said. 'I wonder if Lizzy knows?' she thought, Lizzy had gone next door to get the food, and make-up ready.

"Caitlin, I'm sorry…did he ever--?" Kate's mother asked worriedly, looking over her daughter with fearful eyes.

"No, mom sick!" Kate cried.

END FLASHBACK

Kate looked over at Ari, who was sitting up, wondering what was wrong.

"What's wrong Love?" he asked as a tear slid down her cheek…

"Nothing, just Bete Noire…" she said staring into space… biting her tongue…

'It didn't even happen to me…It didn't happen…' She though as she tried to push it out of her mind… Ari brushed her tear away kissing her cheek and holding her, while she sobbed into his shoulder.

Its amazing, the things that the human brain will retain over time… this is based on a true story, with my teacher…I was just like Kate, confused and upset… and it still bothers me to this day…please be careful you you talk to…it could have been you…RNR…
