MARAS POV
I was standing outside my classroom looking through my purse for the keys. "Ugh! Where are they?" I yelled, very agitated. "Looking for these?" said a playful voice behind me. "Jerome!" I yelled and turned around "where did you find them?" I asked, thank goodness he brought my keys. "At the apartment, on the counter… again" Said Jerome not surprised. Yeah I kind of have a habit of leaving my keys on the counter. I kissed him for about 2 seconds and hesitantly pulled away. "What am I, chopped liver?" I heard Eddie say with a smirk on his face. "Sorry, Eddie. Good to see you!" I said and hugged him. "I'm here for my keys" Eddie said, when I noticed he still had his bags with him. "Oh. I'm so sorry, I don't have your keys, Joy does."
JOYS POV
"Martin!" I yelled. I have to say I am getting a little frustrated, at how these kids never clean there room. I honestly feel ten times worse for Trudy. Martin came walking in with a smirk and that made me even more irritated "what are you smiling for?" I asked him. "Ms. Jaffray, her boyfriend Jerry, and the new caretaker, Eddie are here to see you" he said and then walked away "now you get back in here and you clean this room!" I said but he didn't come back "NOW!" I yelled so loud the entire school most likely heard it. Martin came back in with a solemn look and started cleaning. When I got back to the main hall, Mara, Jerome and Eddie were standing there waiting. "Eddie, I'm so sorry. I didn't know you were here." I apologized. Eddie just stood there smiling. I tossed him the ring of keys and I followed him upstairs.
