It's been a couple of weeks since I went on my first date with Kim. She was great. She made me laugh, for once I was happy. I've been seeing her almost everyday. To top off having the perfect girlfriend I had the best job. The kids respected me and I respected them, everything was perfect. I even got my own apartment.

I successfully was able to avoid Miley in the hallways and at lunch. I shouldn't do this, Miley was a great person and everything. I was just scared my old feelings would come back. I still felt something but not as strong as before. Kim was slowly replacing those feelings and I hope she continued too.

I was quite bored, I had a free period 7th. For some reason I had to stay that period, I wasn't allowed to go home. Most days I graded papers, but today I had nothing to do. I decided to check my yahoo email. I logged on and 2 unread messages popped up. The first one was spam, I deleted it. The next one I noticed was from Kim, I clicked it open.

Lilly,

Last night was amazing. Call me when you get it out, I got the rest of the day off. I love you so much (:

With love,

Kim

I felt my cheeks burn at this. I wasn't one for talking about things like that. I wasn't good at being corny or anything. I usually kept my emotions to myself. Luckily Kim knew this, she thought it was cute. I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a knock at the door. I quickly logged out and turned around. I yelled a come in. I was surprised to see Miley standing at my door.

"Hey Lilly." She said nervously. She didn't look me in the eye. She was instead looking at her feet while biting on her bottom lip. My eyes traveled from her face to her hand. Her engagement ring was still there, not that I was expecting it not to be.

"Hey what brings you here?" I asked.

"Well I do work here…but I was going to ask you something. I'm now the varsity basketball coach, and I'm looking for an assistant coach to help me out. Would you be interested?" She asked.

"I'm not sure, I've been busy lately." I said obviously lying. Ever since I came here it's been awkward with her around. Not too mention how bitchy she has been acting.

"I'm sorry." She said with tears in her eyes. "I've been treating you horrible ever since you came here. The truth is after you left I became something I'm not. I don't want to be an uptight principal anymore. I miss teaching kids, helping them. Now all I do is suspend people and get them in trouble."

"I'm sorry Miley, I really am." I said truthfully.

"Yeah I resigned from being principal, luckily there's an open spot for a math teacher here." She said quietly. I started to really think if I should help coach. I really did miss playing, coaching was the next best thing.

"I'll be honored to assist you in coaching." I said smiling. "I do miss being around basketball." She smiled at this.

"Are you sure you want to? I don't want to force you into it." She said turning serious again.

"Miles chill. You need to relax and stop being serious all the time." I said playfully.

"You're going to need to help me with that." She said smiling. Was she flirting?

"Well someone has to." I said playing along. It's true she was uptight. Years ago she wore clothes she should be wearing. Now she was dressed in a type of business suite and her hair was in a tight bun. She even had glasses now. I heard the bell rang.

"Well I must get going I have to meet someone." I said quickly. I cursed myself for saying that.

"Oh who a boyfriend? Girlfriend?" She asked suddenly interested. I felt my face turn red. I started to gather the stuff I would need to bring home.

"Um a girlfriend. Her name is Kim." I said while getting my coat out of the closet.

"Oh well good for you." She said. She didn't look to happy but I brushed it off. I was hoping she seemed jealous. She probably didn't even care.

"First lesson on loosening up is to get some new clothes." I said joking. She laughed at this.

"I'll work on it." She said smiling.


On the way home I called Kim. I told her I got a coaching job, she seemed happy for me. I came home to find Jackson lying on the couch. He was living with me for a bit. He sat up when I closed the door.

"Hey Lilly. Good news I found a cheap place to live in." He said.

"You know you can stay with me as long as you need to. I don't mind it." I said putting my keys down on the kitchen table.

"Well I think it's time you have your own privacy. You and Kim weren't quite quiet last night." Jackson said trying not to laugh. I felt my cheeks turn red. "Sorry Lils, I know you're kind of touchy when it comes to that. Anyways how was your day?"

"Pretty good actually. I got an assistant coaching job at the school." I said glad that he changed the subject. "Miley, the new varsity coach, asked me, she was my old teacher."

"That's great!" He said smiling. I sort of felt guilty for never telling him about Miley and me. Maybe I should tell him.

"Jackson, can I tell you something." I asked. He nodded. I sat down across from him. "Promise not to hate me?"

"Lilly I could never hate you. You've been the best friend I could ask for." He said sounding serious.

"Okay well…iusetohaveathingwithmileywheniwasherstudent."I said quickly.

"What?" He asked scratching his head.

"I use to be in love with Miley Stewart my teacher, and she liked me too. We had a thing my senior year." I said not making eye contact. I heard Jackson laugh. "What?"

"That's kinda hot." Jackson said laughing.

Boys.
