Seth was in the staff lounge. He was waiting for Hunter to walk in with Shane and Shawn. Two or three cops to come and arrest him. No one walked in other than teachers who worked here. Dean walked over and quickly sat down.
"Hey, Rena told me what happened. So? Its safe to say he didn't hit you.", Dean said.
"He just yelled about how wrong this is. He forbid us from seeing each other. If we do he's going to call the cops on me.", Seth said sadly.
Dean shook his head.
"Wrong? I know a few people who would think that what he's doing is wrong.", Dean said.
"You know about his relationship?", Seth asked.
"You forget, I'm dating his daughter too", Dean said smirking.
Seth chuckled. Dean would be damned if that man tried to take away his girl. No one was keeping him from Serena, ever. Roman walked in with Randy.
"What's with the faces?", Randy asked.
"The kid's parents found out about them", Dean said.
"What happened? Did they call the cops on you?", Roman asked.
"No, but I can't see Sabrina anymore", Seth said sadly.
He couldn't keep talking about this. He stood.
"I need some air. I'll see you guys around", he said.
Once he was gone, Dean filled them in. Randy couldn't imagine his life without his girl and was thankful they never got caught. Roman hoped for the same reaction from Chance. No cops. Besides, Nala was almost eighteen and graduating. No one would stop him from reclaiming his girl and kids.
"So how's Mark?", Dean asked.
"On edge, but I think that has more to do with Alana being home and worried that those guys will come back and hurt her.", Roman said.
The guys understood.
"I'll take him lunch today. Seeing my face might help him feel better", Randy said.
"Nope. That will make things way worse. As soon as you walked through the door my stomach started hurting", Dean said.
Randy and Roman laughed.
Sabrina stayed in bed all day. Her aunt Michelle walked in.
"Hey, how are you?", she asked.
"Like my heart has been ripped out", Sabrina said.
"Just give your dad time to process this. You have to admit Brina, it's not right. Student teacher relationships are wrong.", she said.
"So is your relationship with my dad. Besides, it's not like I'm twelve. I'm almost eighteen", Sabrina said.
Michelle nodded.
"And it's because of that, that I understand. He was risking a lot by being with you. Your mom and I convinced your dad not to report him. Like I said, just give him some time", she said.
Sabrina nodded.
They had asked for all the senior teachers to report for an after school meeting.
"How much do you want to bet it's about that field trip.", Dean mumbled.
The school usually held four trips for the seniors. This was their last one before graduation.
"The National WWII Museum will be the last senior trip. Scheduled for next week. Tomorrow you will hand out the slips", Hunter said.
Everyone nodded.
"When do we hand them out?", Glen asked.
"First period", Hunter said.
"How are we dividing the students?", Randy asked.
"It will be mixed. We'll make up the list later", Hunter said.
Everyone stood once the meeting was over.
"Do you know who's making the list?", Roman asked his friends on the way to their cars.
"I heard Alexa was doing it", Dean said.
Roman nodded. He hoped he got Nala in his group.
Mark was catching up on parent teacher conferences over the phone. Discussing catch up assignments their kids could do. When it came to calling Kaye's brother, he had nothing bad to say about her.
"I'm glad she's doing good", Kris had said.
"If you don't mind my asking. Kathan is really knowledgeable when it comes to history, but she acts like she hates it.", Mark said.
"Yeah, that's thanks to my mom", he said.
Mark didn't want to ask what he meant by that. If Kris wanted to keep talking he would listen.
"See, my dad had all kinds of books on history. Kathan and I loved going through them and reading them. After he died, my mom wanted everything that reminded her of him out of our house. So she burned the books", Kris said.
"Oh wow", Mark said.
"Yeah. Our mom wasn't a good person.", Kris said.
"Well, you've raised her right. She's a great person and a wonderful student. You've done your job Kris", Mark said.
"I know. I just feel like if I stop, she's going to spiral out of control", Kris said.
He sounded frantic to Mark.
"Kris, are you ok?", Mark asked.
"Yeah. If we're done I have to go", Kris said.
"We're done", Mark said.
He took a mental note to talk to Kaye about it the next time they spoke.
Kathan was picking something up to make dinner before her brother got home. Walking passed an aisle, she stopped. Walking back towards it. She noticed Elisa was reading a box. She walked closer.
"Elisa", Kaye said.
Her sister in law jumped and placed her hand against her heart.
"Kathan. You scared me", she said.
"What are you doing?", Kaye asked.
She noticed the box Elisa had put back. A pregnancy test.
"No point in hiding it right", she said.
"You think you might be?", Kaye asked.
"I don't know Kaye, and what do you care. According to you and your brother, I'm a liar and a cheater right", Elisa said, grabbing the box and walking away.
"I'm sorry", Kaye said, making Elisa stop.
"Your brother's not. If he was he wouldn't be all over that other woman. Mickie", Elisa said.
"What? No, he wouldn't", Kathan said.
"Kaye, he's your brother, I don't want to say anything bad about him to you", Elisa said.
"I'll find out Elisa, and if he is I'm setting him straight. He shouldn't be doing that", Kathan said.
Elisa nodded.
"I'm going to tell him", Kathan said.
"Good. He should know", Elisa said.
"Will you be there? I know, everything I said to hurt you, but I need you there", Kaye said.
Elisa smiled and nodded.
"When?", Elisa asked.
"Saturday. I'm making a dinner. Kris won't know he's coming till dinner time", Kaye said.
Elisa nodded.
"I'll be there", she said.
Kaye smiled and nodded. She didn't like seeing her brother and sister in law separated.
"How's your brother?", Elisa asked.
She knew that if no one reminded him to take his meds, he would skip them and act like it didn't matter. He got so bad when he forgot.
"I don't think he's taking his meds. He looks lost and exhausted", Kaye said.
Elisa sighed.
"Make him take his meds tonight and then tomorrow morning hand him the next one. Make sure he takes it. Your brother can be very stubborn sometimes", Elisa said.
Kaye smiled and nodded.
"When are you coming home?", Kaye asked.
Elisa lifted the box.
"If I am, as soon as possible. I just need space to think. Everything he said to me hurt. Its not like Kris", Elisa said.
"Ok", Kathan said.
Elisa left and Kathan looked at the boxes in front of her. It wouldn't hurt to be sure. She grabbed one.
Mark arrived at school the next day. The bruises on his face were still visible if you were looking for them.
"Hey, how are you feeling?", Hunter asked.
"Like hell, but I'm good", Mark said.
Hunter nodded.
"Can't really see any damage", Hunter said.
Mark nodded. He handed Mark slips for the field trip next week.
"Hand them out first period", Hunter said.
Mark nodded.
Scott looked over his hand. The cuts were healing and still a bit red.
"Why didn't you just kill him?", Ruvé asked.
"We were in public. The man is never alone. What did you want me to do? Kill him in front of his kid?", he asked.
"Yes. My client would get full custody of her, he would be dead and away from Kathan", she yelled.
"Have you gone to talk to your kids?", he asked.
"If she saw you, then they both know I'm back. She'll tell him, she tells him everything. I just want to give them space to wrap their heads around the fact that I'm back", Ruvé said.
Scott nodded.
"And FYI, your son looks like shit. He kinda reminds me of a sad person.", Scott said.
"That's not funny. He has depression", she said.
"Well, he looks sick", Scott said.
He needed her. He needed his mother. No matter how much of an asshole he was to her. He was still her child.
Walking out of Mr. Ambrose's class wishing she had brought extra panties. That man didn't know it, but every little thing reminded her of everything they did in the bedroom. Then he would get closer to her and lick his lips before smirking, making her squeeze her thighs together. His hand would slip and touch her, his breathing in her ear, making her want to moan out.
She was brought out of her thoughts when someone grabbed her arm, pulling her back. It took her a few seconds before she realized it was Zack Ryder. His friends waiting a few feet away for him.
"So prom", he said.
"I'm going with my girls, sorry", she said, about to walk away.
He grabbed her again and laughed softly.
"You can't go with your girls, you have to take a date and I'm taking you", he said.
Jason Jordan walked over, putting his arm over his friend's shoulder.
"You'll have a great time with her. If she's anything like her slut sister, she'll spread her legs easily. Just tell her she's pretty", Jason said.
They both laughed. She slapped Jason hard, almost knocking him down.
"Don't you ever talk about my sister like that you asshole.", Serena yelled.
He grabbed Serena by her arms, shaking her just a bit. He was pulled off of her. Mr. Ambrose between them. A security came over and stopped by them. Luke and Erick.
"Just because you found out who your daddy is, doesn't mean you can grab women like that. Besides, if anyone around here is a slut, you might want to look at your mom.", Dean said.
Jason was fuming. Dean smirked.
"Ask her about me, fuck, I might be your daddy too", Dean said smug.
Jason was going to hit Dean, but was grabbed by the security.
"That bitch slapped me", Jason yelled.
"Yeah, sure", Erick said.
They took Jason to the office. Dean looked at his friends.
"Get to class, now", Dean ordered.
They quickly made their way there. Dean looked at Serena.
"You ok sweetheart?", he asked.
He wanted to hold her, but stopped himself. If anyone saw, they would report it.
"I'm fine", she said.
He nodded.
"Let's get you to the office, they'll want to ask you what happened", he said.
She nodded and followed him.
"Thank you for helping me", she said.
"Your my girl, I take care of what's mine", Dean said.
She smiled and blushed. Their arms brushed.
"I wanted to beat the shit out of him when he touched you", Dean said.
"I'm glad you didn't. You would have gotten it worse because of who his dad is. I doubt he's getting in trouble now", Serena said.
"Let's hope he does", Dean said.
