A/N: Wow! I am soooo sorry for this long and overdue update. I had hit writers block and I had a lot of personal/life things going on but somebody put my story on their alert thingy so I felt I owed it to you guys to continue.
Disclaimer: I own nothing
Emmett was sitting in his new classroom preparing for his first class. He couldn't keep his mind on the task at hand though. His thoughts kept going back to his favorite blonde student. Unable to focus anymore on his lesson plan, Emmett sank into a chair and put his head in his hands. He was hoping that an answer to their situation would magically appear.
Elle made sure that Bruiser had everything he would need for the day before heading towards her first class of the day. She was hoping that whoever took over for Professor Callahan would not judge her on her looks. She was tired of being a "Marilyn". She wanted to get to class a little early to try to make herself look more like a "Jackie".
If Emmett believed in signs or anything like that this would have been one. He heard the door to the classroom open and he looked up. He was shocked to come face to face with the girl who he cant stop thinking about. Elle and Emmett just stared at each other. Elle knew she should apologize but couldn't get the words out.
Emmett stood up and took a step towards Elle. He did not want to have to pine for her and wonder what might have been. He was just about to open his mouth and say that he was an idiot the night before. Then him and Elle broke eye contact as Warner walked into the room.
"Well well well. I am not surprised to find you two in here." Warner said as he made his way to his usual seat. "Elle, are you done playing Barbie with Emmett yet?"
"Mr. Huntington, that's Professor Forrest to you." Emmett said, voicing his authority. Elle smiled at Emmett. Even though she was angry at him she was still proud of him.
"Professor? You? You have to be kidding me!" Warner exclaimed.
"Im not and if you don't want to get thrown out of class you might want to show me some respect." Emmett glared at Warner as the rest of the class started to file into the room and into their seats. Elle for once loved having a seat in the front.
"Class, I am going to be taking over for Professor Callahan. Don't worry though. I handled must of his lesson plans and made his tests so we will just continue where we left off last class." Emmett smiled to the class.
Throughout the entire class Elle couldn't contain her smile. Warner on the other hand sulked in the back. Vivian and Enid sat in front now with Elle and kept glancing at each other confused as to what was up with Elle. She was never this happy during class.
At the end of class everybody made their way out of the room. Elle though slowly packed up her things so she could be alone with Emmett. Once everybody was gone, Emmett shut the door and turned to get his stuff and smiled shyly when he saw Elle.
"So, what did you think? Don't spare my feelings. I sucked didn't I?" Emmett asked as he walked to grab his bag.
"Actually Professor, I was very impressed with todays lesson plan. Though I think I may need some extra help with some of the material." She smiled at Emmett.
Emmett laughed. "Well im always available for my students." Emmett wa;ked towards Elle. "Elle…" HE quietly spoke. "About the other day…"
"Emmett." Elle cut him off. "Its my fault. I was confused and upset and said things I didn't mean."
"No, its my fault. I shouldn't of just left. Its just that when I see Warner…I…I cant help but wonder how you could possible pick me."
"Emmett, you believed in me when nobody else did. You convinced me I was good enough. The question is, why wouldn't I choose you?" Elle smiled at him, taking his hand.
"Well…When you put it that way." Emmett smiled at her and pulled her in for a hug. "Now, Little Miss Woods Comma Elle, would you like to get some lunch with me?"
"Why of course Professor." Elle giggled as Emmett led her out of the room and towards their favorite pizza place.
As they walked they were unaware that somebody had seen them. More specifically, had seen a College Professor and his student holding hands. This person planned to use this knowledge and to make sure their was proof, took a picture with the use of a camera phone.
Emmett and Elle were enjoying a nice lunch full of teasing and joking when Emmett's cell rang. Still laughing he answered it.
"Hello?…Hey mom!….I kno….I know…I know!…Sorry….Yes I did…I would have to ask…I cant just assume mom…I will ask now can you hold on?…Ok." Emmett covered his phone and looked at Elle who smirking a little after listening to Emmett's side of the conversation. "Elle, my mother would like you to come with me to her birthday party this weekend. You don't have to if you don't want to though."
"Emmett, of course I will go!" Elle smiled. "You know I love a good party!" Then her smile quickly fell. "What if your mom doesn't like me? Omigod, she's gonna hate me! Im stealing her baby boy from her!"
"Elle, she will love you, relax." Emmett smiled before putting his phone back to his ear. "Mom, she said yes…At 3?…Ok…I wont be late….See you then…Love you too." Emmett said before hanging up.
Elle smiled at him. "You are just so adorable. The relationship you have with your mom is so cute." She gushed.
"It's nothing. She's my mom." Emmett shrugged it off.
"Still, its very cute." She repeated still smiling.
After lunch Elle and Emmett said goodbye and each headed off towards a classroom. They made plans to see each other for a study session in Elle's dorm as usual. Both of them were blissfully happy now that they had made up and were able to have a nice, normal relationship.
A/N: Ok so we all know something is coming but who took the picture? What is the person going to do with it? Muah ha haaaa
