AN: Wow! It looks our this story is starting to come along very well :) Great to see my fans having fun with this new fanfiction. I hope you enjoy the new chapter. Your devoted author - Itachi Black

Elsa's head was spinning as if she was falling into a dark abyss. She didn't know what to think at the moment Jack's elder sister had left. She felt dumbfounded, but the young man standing across appeared more stupefied -no, that was an inadequate word to use- Jack looked incredulous by the situation and fury burned deeply in his eyes. Now that his older sister was gone, he was glaring at her from the other side of the room.

(10 minutes ago...)

Jack shouted loudly, "I don't want her here! Why do I need to live with the likes of her?"

Elsa raised her voice, but it wasn't as loud as Jack's, as she argued, "This is my student! I can't live with him!"

He turned to her and said, "I don't want to live with you."

They turned to Emma, who looked surprised by this situation, and she sternly said, "Jack, don't raise your voice at me and Missus Elsa, you have signed the contract."

Jack paced around the room, looking occasionally from her sister to his new teacher, as he huffed about. He knew that he had to calm down. But this was unbelievable. It was insane.

Emma calmly said, "Missus Elsa, you told me that you recently moved to this country and how you have been living with your friend so far. You spent most of your money while moving to this country. You've been paying small amounts of bill to your friend. You also told your friend that you would be moving out soon and thus invested your money to a company to move your belongings. Additionally, you just paid up cash to reserve this place. It is safe to assume that you are short on cash. Then here is the contract you just signed and it clearly states that you will be paying half the expense of the rent for a minimum of a year. By this contract, you don't necessarily need to live here, but you must pay half the rent fee for the next twelve months."

Jack was now sitting defeated on the couch with his hand covering his face. Meanwhile, Elsa was shocked at the gentle and professional smile on the woman's face. From the sofa, he snapped, "Why did you have to do this to me?!"

His elder sister scowled and argued, "You are supposed to be a high school student, brother. But you barely go to school because you are too busy juggling three to four jobs. And that is physically breaking you down."

He scoffed, "I technically don't need to school. I already completed everything that needed to be done and I refuse to get any help from our parents or our relatives. It's none of their business."

Emma sighed at her defiant brother and said, "Look, I am just trying my best to help you out as your older sister. That's my responsibility."

Jack held his tongue as he observed his older sister, who was wearing a pained expression, then he gritted his teeth. He said nothing more. Then he lied on the couch and closed his eyes. Meanwhile Emma left the house while saying, "I am only doing this for you because I love you Jack."

In an authoritative tone, Elsa demanded, "How could you think that it is alright for you to say that school isn't important for you? Your sister was just worried about you!"

The young man bared his teeth and said, "Elsa, don't act like you know my sister. She is my sister and I know damn well that she cares about me as much as I care about her. So don't butt in."

Elsa's jaw pried open by the boy's flair of temper and pride. He was much more different than the polite young man she met at the bar. He was much more different than the meek student at school. This was a side she had never seen. And he dared to call her by her first name!

She said, "I apologize for offending you. Perhaps I crossed the line."

She felt stunned as Jack barked, "You definitely crossed the line."

She maintained her composure as the adult and said, "And I apologize again. But you do not have the right to call me by my first name."

A sneer surfaced on his face and he confidently marched towards her. He stood before her and smirked as he said, "You may have the authority over me on school grounds, but off-school grounds, we are equal on the same ground. But now you are on my territory, I am now your tenant and I am the landlord as my sister clearly pointed out. So I do have the right to call you by your first name."

The audacity of this arrogant boy! She could feel herself simmering, but there was some kind of an odd truth in his words. Most students wouldn't dare to talk in this manner towards their teacher, but it was clear that Jack Overland was very different than the others. His voice rang in the room powerfully. He stood confidently without flinching. He was evidently used to working and going against adults.

Jack continued, "We clearly have no choice but to live together now. So here are my basic rules. One: never go into my room. I may have to share my house with you, but my bedroom is my sole territory that you are not allowed to intrude. Two: don't touch my instruments. Three: don't make a mess in this house. I cannot stand a messy lifestyle."

Then he went towards a bedroom door, presumably his bedroom, and glanced back before going inside. He added, "Oh yeah. And don't you dare go off telling other people that we live together. I would never be able to live with that."

Next thing she knew, the bedroom door clicked behind his back. Once again, she could feel the room spinning around her. Her student basically said the words that she wanted to say before shutting the door behind.

She growled, "The audacity of that boy!"
