Chapter 2 Mr. Boy
Hey! This is the second chapter and I haven't got any reviews! Please do, I'm dying to know what you think! I don't own any of the sky high characters you recognize
"Mr. Boy?" stuttered Robyn and dropped the tomatoes again.
"Miss Quatermain! What a pleasure. And I… I expect that this is your mother?" he said and looked at Robyn's mom with great blue eyes.
"Eh… Yes this is my mom, we where just…" she started in an attempt to leave. Meeting your teacher at the mall is bad enough but when he gives your mother a look of admiration is worse than being in hell! When Robyn was a little girl she had thought that teachers were robots that could be switched on and off before and after school. But when she got older she began to understand that teachers were normal people that had to sleep, pay bills and in this case shop…
"Please call me Cristina." Her mom cut her off and reached out her hand towards the small man, she wasn't much taller than him but still…
"Nice to meet you Cristina. I'm your daughter's teacher, well I'm not her teacher since she's a hero and all but I'm a teacher at her school…" said Mr. Boy stupidly. "I'm all American boy, but most known as Mr. Boy."
"A teacher? What subject do you teach?"
"I teach the side-kick class…" he said a low voice. Cristina smiled and said excitedly.
"I was a side-kick!"
"Really?" said Mr. Boy sounding impressed. Robyn saw that his eyes checked her hand before he spoke again, as to see if she was wearing a wedding ring.
"Eh, you wouldn't care for a coffee would you?" he stuttered which was too much for Robyn.
"Mom we have to get home to…"
"Love to! Robyn, you don't mind paying do you?" said Cristina and left after handing Robyn 20 dollars. Robyn glared after them with a forced calm expression than she stoked off towards the cashier's stand to pay. On her way she smashed in to a boy standing by the vegetables picking out apples.
"Wow there big feller!" he said and helped Robyn to stand. It was Robyn's best friend Garrett Samuels that always treated her like a boy which Robyn really didn't mind; she got enough girly treatment from Kate.
"Garrett!" she said a little relieved to meet a person she could talk to about her dilemma. "Look." She said and grabbed his neck and turned it in the right direction.
"Is that your mom and Mr. Boy? Together?" he said and made a little laugh. I assured him that it was far from funny before I let go of his neck. He rubbed it and removed some of his brown hair from his face. Garrett was a very handsome boy with dark eyebrows and a broad jaw. He had a rather small nose and hazel eyes which made him look even more attractive. Robyn had never thought about him in that way and she was sure she was the only one. Any girl at sky high would kill to spend a day with him which made Robyn hated among many of the girls at Shy High.
"It's kinda, cute." He said, trying to keep his face straight.
"If you hadn't been as tall as you are I would have slapped the back of your head right now." She said and poked him in the chest with one finger.
"Robyn, haven't you always complained about the fact that your mother never dated?" asked Garrett.
"Yeah but I wouldn't have if I knew that she would fall for the most tragic man ever made."
"Don't worry. The whole thing will be over before you can say cookie, wait and see." He comforted and walked away.
"Garrett is right." She told her self almost expecting to see her mother standing outside waiting for her. But she didn't, and Robyn had to teleport home with two full bags of groceries.
