Ageless Souls (Student/Teacher Romance)

The morning came to wake me up from the little sleep that I had had. And the first thing I woke up to see was the drawing of me. It was different, but I loved it all the same. The clock read 6:45 AM and I went to get ready by taking a shower, once out I headed to my closet looking for something unique to wear. Something that said, “I love Art”. There was a noise like hissing, damn it! Xavier was mad at me; I must’ve forgotten to feed him.

“Xavi forgive me I was tired yesterday, I had a long day! And today is just going to be longer.” Then he started wagging his tail in his cage, attention whore. I love you too! Ok back to the tedious decision of what clothes to wear. I went for a black v-neck t-shirt with a black jacket, dark blue semi-holey jeans and some black Chuck Taylors. It was pretty blatant my love for black, will what can I say everything goes with black. Now the time read 7:07am, lucky or what?  

Now this girl was going to get me mad, I didn't like being late for most things. I was going to have to call her. “Yeah Alexis…eh hello? Where the hell is you!”

“I’m going to turn on your road right now! We have time no worries, I know how you are.” I closed the phone; I decided to walk out to the main road. I waited and then about 30 seconds later like she promised there she was.

“Alexis my car, I’m driving.”

“Gosh if you want to get there on time just get in.” I listened to her but I got annoyed because I didn't get my way. I turned on my radio and tuned to my favorite station, and my favorite song just started Here comes the Sun by the Beatles, the oldies according to me were the best. Nowadays music fails. Just as the next song started we pulled up James Island Charter High School. The last year to walk the halls of this place, I’m random I should have been feeling this yesterday not the second day. She park and handed me my keys, I reached in the back for my messenger bag.

Looks like it’s time to repeats the familiar steps of yesterday, with the first problem of the day math. It went by pretty fast but not fast enough! I think I just gain the entire lost math from the summer with that one class. But at least I could sleep it off next class; just as I figured more powerpoints which were for all the newbie’s. I laid my head down for 5 minutes when my name is called.

“Rhiannon, I’d expect this from any of the other new people but not from you and you want me to make you senior editor.”

“Don't have a cow; I know this like the bottom of my shoe.” Then I put my head back down when it only felt like minutes had passed the bell rang, time for drama.

This class period we had more actual work, it was a monologue to be performed and in the audience they each held a giant cue card with the emotion we were expected to perform it in. I knew the first one it was elation. But then about a minute in it was switched to gratification, but almost suddenly it was anguish. I only had two minutes left with the way I timed myself. The last emotion was lustfulness and when I was looking to the door, there was Chase. Chase Murray.

The last line I said and finished with smirk directed to Chase, and he raised an eyebrow and just smiled back.

“Well done Rhia, I haven’t seen composure like that in a while and may I add the way you ended was splendiferous. Ok whose next? Why Kai I really want to see how you do.”

And he did go, he started out good and then someone give bashful which he executed perfectly then it got to wrath which was convincing and to end it with a bang it the emotion was unrequited love. It was so believable I stood up and was applauding. This went on with the rest of the class members and when the last girl was up with her last emotion, which was tearful anguish, she got all emotional and commanded tears. Then the bell released us from the wholesome fun we were having.

Chase was still at the door, he was the captain of varsity swimming and water polo; not that I went to the games just that in yearbook I would happen to see his picture.

“Hey Rhiannon, right? What’s up?”

“Just heading to English, care to walk with me?”

“Actually we have the same English, Mr. Yokolov.”                       

Whoa I normally notice these things, “Really? Oh I’m sorry I usually notice these things then let’s go.”
