Disclaimer:Don't own, didn't happen. I sorta based Professor Nelson on Professor Snape from Harry Potter, just to give it an edge of character. Funny too, she's also the Chemistry teacher.

Anne walked into Chemistry class the next day, Professor Nelson standing by her desk. She was a tall, pale woman with dark red hair and olive green eyes. She always had her hair tied tight in a bun on the back of her head, with the black framed spectacles on the ridge of her long, pointed nose. Professor Nelson was indeed a mean, strict teacher, whose only purpose in life was to make her student's life in schol horrible. Anne didn't mind her much, just did what she was told, and did it hastily.

She sat down next to Chase, who looked handsome in his school uniform, like a model from a magazine. It was said Anne was one of the luckiest girls in the class, since she sat next to the equally cute and equally sweet new boy in school. Chase was like Anne in some ways. He worked hard, fast, and didn't like other people slowing him down.

"Hey Anne", Chase said as she set her bag down next to her.

"Hi Chase, how are you?", she asked politely.

"Fine. Hey, I noticed you were dancing with Reid at the bar a few nights ago. Something goin' on between you two?" he asked with a smirk.

"Kind of. We just like spending time together", Anne said turning to him.

Professor Nelson soon called for everyone's attention. "Alright class, good morning", she said.

They class said in unison "Good morning Professor Nelson".

"Today, we will be discussing how to make ice. You and you partner will have exactly an hour and a half to complete the following instructions", she flipped the board over, which revealed a page number, "on page 394." Everyone turned to the said page, "BEGIN!" she said and soon everyone began getting to work.

Chase then continued their conversation. "You would never think a girl like you, and a boy like him would ever date", he said getting out the needed bottles and chemicals.

"What does that mean?", Anne asked watching him, and began filling the containers with certain chemicals.

"Well, most couples date for only one reason" he said helping her out.

"They love eachother?" Anne guessed.

"No, because they're compatiable. A guy like Reid, rough around the edges, does things his own way, doesn't listen to others very well, and a slacker, would want someone who is somewhat the same. Not a good, hardworking, determined, independent, girl like you. You deserve someone who would give you the essentials of life", he said turning on the burning and placing a container on its flame.

"Essentials? Like what exactly?" Anne asked, feeling a little angered by his way of thinking.

"Oh, like someone who doesn't have a criminal record, does well in school, works hard for things, has plently of money for you both, and has a real future ahead of him", he said leaning agianst the table.

"Someone like you?" she asked, picking up what he was saying.

"Maybe close to. Anne, do you seriously think that Reid loves you? I mean, I've heard from people that he's not exactly the trustworthy type. His last girlfriend, Stacy, you might have heard of her said-" he stopped to begin sturring two chemicals together, "said that he cheated on her twice when they were going out".

"Well...Maybe she was wrong!", Anne told him, placing the chemical on the burner into the mixture.

"She wasn't. Another girl he dated said the same thing. Come on Anne, the guy doesn't seem right for you", Chase said.

"Well, I'll think about it" she said and returned to work.

The entire day she thought about Reid in a whole different way. He never told her about those girls, and she did remember Aaron mentioning that Stacy girl the night Reid took her to Nikki's. Why would he not mention he was a serial cheater?

Later on...

Reid had invited Anne to go to the movies with him, but she declined, but said they could hang out at his house later, and she'd walk. When he hung up his cell phone he thought 'When has she evr turned me down? Does she love me?...Maybe she really does have other stuff going on' he shrugged his shoulders and took a ride with Tyler back to Nikki's. It was crowded as usual, and there were plenty of pretty girls around, but Reid had no interest in them. He wanted to be with Anne, but she was busy. He and Tyler sat down at a table where Caleb and Pogue were, and they all talked about other things. Then Daphne, a regular waitress, walked by there table. Daphne was hot for a 16-year-old, Ried actually made it with her once, but that was with Stacy. He wasn't gonna make the same mistake twice.

"Hi guys...Hi Reid", Daphne said blinking her large brown eyes at him.

"Hey Daphne", he said and turned away.

"You guys want anything to drink?", she asked pulling out a notepad.

The guys ordered drinks, and waited for her to come back. When Reid took the first sip of his Coke, something happened. He felt a little dizzy. Drunk almost. Everything was spinning...and Daphne was looking pretty damn good.

A few hours later

Anne walked up the stairs to Reid's bedroom. She had brought her books so she could tutor him for Literary class. His mother, Aggie, had let her in, so they weren't alone. Anne reached his bedroom door and knocked softly, when he didn't anser, she opened it. There laid Reid, in his bed with the cover covering half of his body from the waste down. Next to his laid a pretty red haired girl, who was obviously naked under the sheets. Anne felt tears run down her cheeks.

Reid shook himself awake, and spotted Anne. "Anne..." he looked down at the girl next to him, "I'm...This isn't what it...Baby, listen to me" he said.

Anne didn't wanna hear it. The girl suddenlt woke up, she looked up at Reid without noticing Anne, "hey baby, sleep well?" she asked. Then noticed Anne. "Oh, you must be Anne.." she gave a smirk, "book worm girl".

"I can't believe you would...Oh my God...Chase was right about you all along...I should have know some stupid book couldn't really bring too people who are totally different together...I was so stupid", Anne said tears welling in her eyes. She wanted to slap him, but didn't, she walked out of his room.

"Anne! Wait, I can explain!", Reid rushed to pull on his clothes and ran for her, but it was too late. She was gone...forever.

A/N: It only gets better...Hahahahahaha!
