They'll be more Rhis in the next chapter! x
A week had passed and Eddie was in his element working as Executive Head, he had visited the other three schools but none of them had that feeling of home like Waterloo Road.
* *
As he walked through the receptionists area to Rachel's office he could have sworn he had just saw something that he really wished he didn't Rachel kissing someone he decided to stand next to the door and listen to what was going on.
"Mr Lawson what are you doing?" Joyce asked a little concerned for his welfare
"Who's in there?"
"Miss Mason and Mr Mead"
"Oww, and remember its Eddie" He smiled
* *
"Chris are you ok, you've been acting a bit weird lately?" Rachel asked concerned.
Had she done something?
"Yeah I'm fine, well um you know last week when you found out Eddie was the Executive umm..."
'O god where is this heading' Rachel thought to herself as he paused
"Well Steph told everyone about last year"
"And" Rachel started cursing Steph in her mind
"Well it sounded like you and Eddie were really in you know ... well liked each other" Chris said awkwardly
"Chris I'm not being funny but where is this heading"
"Do you still love him?"
...
KNOCK! KNOCK!
Knowing Rachel like Eddie did, she probably would be very grateful to him for getting her out of that sticky situation.
Or was it a sticky situation for her?
"Alryt Chris" he smiled walking into the office as Chris walked out
"Yeah mate"
"What was that all about?"
"Ow nothing don't worry, was there something you wanted Eddie?"
"Charmin"
"You know i didn't mean it like that"
"Yeah there was something i wanted, just your approval on a party for the 10s and 11s just so they can relax a bit coz of their exams, you know"
"Are you organising it?"
"Certainly am"
"Be my guest then"
"With the help of you, Chris and Kim though" Eddie added cheekily as he walked out of her office before she could answer
* *
"Hey you alryt?" Chris smiled as he walked towards Rachel standing at her car
"Hey yeah I'm fine, you?"
"Good, look about earlier I'm sorry if i made you feel awkward"
"Don't worry about it its fine" Rachel smiled
"I was wondering tonight do you fancy going out for a meal"
"Yeah why not"
"Ok good is about 7 alryt?"
"Perfect" Rachel grinned as Chris returned the gesture
"Cya then" Chris walked off to his car
As she watched Chris drive off she realised she had forgot her laptop
"Oh for god sake"
She walked through the corridors only hearing the sound of her heels clicking along the floor and finally reaching her office she quickly grabbed the laptop and started to speed walk to her car as she wanted to look nice for tonight when something that sounded like laughter caught her attention, it was coming from the PE hall so she thought she best go and check.
As she walked into the PE hall, no one was there then she saw the light coming from the room which had the boxing ring in.
As she stood by the door it was clear who was in there Eddie Lawson and Bolton Smiley
What the hell are they doing still here?

"Miss Haydock can i nick Smiley"
"The pleasures all yours" Steph smiled
"What av i dun know" Bolton sighed
"Nothing just thought we'd have a little chat"
"Why are going in ere sir?"
"Put the gloves on then" Eddie said chucking Bolton a pair of boxing gloves, then took his blazer and tie off unbuttoning some the buttons on his shirt then placing then the gloves on
"Ready"
"Sir you know I'll chin ya"
"Try it" Eddie laughed

"Your quite good ain't ya sir"
"Used to be a boxer back in the day it was passion just like you"
"Na sir i don't think it's for me anymore dats why I'm concentratin on ma lyrics init"
"Look Smiley i don't think you should give up boxing just because of what happened last year with Rob, you should keep at your dream that's where i messed up my foster dad and trainer pushed me so hard that i ended up giving up but it's the worst thing i could have ever done looking back now"
"Yea"
"Mmm, you've got potential in the boxing industry mate"
"Ya think" Bolton smiled
"I know"
"Cheers sir, cya tomorrow yea" Bolton shook his hand
"Yea sir" Eddie smiled
"Miss" Bolton nodded as he seen her
Rachel smiled then walked into the room
"Hey you alryt?" Eddie grinned
"Quite a speech you gave their"
"Na i just don't wanna see him make the same mistake i did"
"I never knew you used to be a boxer"
"You never asked"
"Mm i guess"
"So how come your still here?" Eddie asked curiously
"Forgot my laptop" Rachel said holding it up "Then i heard laughing in here so i thought I'd better come and have a look"
"O right"
"You gunna walk to your car now?"
"Yeah hang on let me put this stuff away first"
Rachel leant against the doorframe holding her laptop close to her chest as she watched him put the stuff away then placing his blazer on
"Ready?"
"Yep"
"Come on then" Eddie smiled as he turnt the light off watching Rachel smile at him
"What?"
"I dunno you look kinda handsome in a suit"
"I look good in anything" Eddie laughed
