My November Rain

chapter 2: Running A Little Late

"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up," I murmured under my breath. It was nearing 11:00 a.m. and that meant it was almost time for 3rd period! Mmmmm almost time to see Mr. Welch! Oh i couldn't believe how incredibly handsome he is! Hopefully the seats in the front would be empty, so maybe i could get a good seat. 

"Miss Chambers? Excuse me miss Chambers," Mrs. Applegate stared at me as she got my attention. 

"Yes?"

Slowly taking a step towards my desk and narrowing her eyes Mrs Applegate snapped, "When you come back to your senses I would like it if you would pay attention while I am discussing your class syllabus."

I lowered my gaze away from the ever so bitchy teacher and shook my head. Did she really have to call me out in front of everyone?

Mrs. Applegate is my 2nd period Physical Science teacher and she was a complete and total tight ass! Maybe it had something to do with the fact that her husband had left her over the summer, but who would blame him for leaving? Her snippy little attitude was enough to drive any man away! With one look you would never guess that she was so mean. She was of average height for a woman in her thirties, and honestly she could pass for a woman in her mid twenties. She had short cropped hair, and i must say short hair on a woman never really looks nice, but with her slim frame and her high cheek bones she could pull off the short hair very easily. 

Hallelujah, I thought to myself as the bell rung signaling the end of this horribly dreadful class!

"Miss Chambers I do expect you to pay better attention in my class from now on. You would not want to get detention now would you?" Mrs Applegate had a slight smirk on her face as she snapped at me again. 

I secretly wanted to beat this woman in the face! I mean who was she to be acting like this towards me? I zone out just a little and she wants to jump all over my ass! 

I looked Mrs. Applegate in the eyes and the words felt like fire rolling off my tongue, "Yes ma'am Mrs. Applegate." 

Assuming she had heard my sarcastic tone I turned and headed out of the class, but not before hearing the little chuckle that came from Mrs. Applegate's mouth. This seemed to deepen my hate for this women, but i pushed all of that aside as i walked to my next class. My 3rd period Calculus class where Mr. Handsome, oh Mr. Welch would be waiting. 

I walked down the hallway as quickly as i could towards my locker. I wanted to make sure that I got everything i needed for class. I fiddled with my locker, and after wasting about two minutes trying to open it I realized that nothing of mine was in my locker, because my things were in Mr. Welch's class. How in the hell had i forgotten that i could not get my locker open this morning and had stored my things in Mr. Welch's class? 

"Son of a bit-," I quickly cut myself off as i saw Mrs. Applegate heading my way.

I didn't want to draw anymore unwanted attention to myself, so i ducked my head and walked slowly past the devil herself toward my next class. As I passed Mrs. Applegate i quickly picked up my pace. I think i only had about a minute until the bell was to ring. Just as the though passed my mind the bell rang over head and now this meant i was late to Mr. welch's Calculus class. Damn the last thing i wanted to do was be late! I had already made an idiot out of myself this morning with the whole locker thing, and now he was going to think that I was a lazy student who shows up to class whenever she feels like it. 

As I approached the classroom i noticed the door was shut. Not thinking that the door would be locked I tried to open the door and walk into the classroom. Ha big mistake! the door was locked and I ended up running into the door full force and smacking my head against the glass window in the middle of the door. Dizzily i backed away from the door and knocked. I saw Mr. Welch approching the door while trying to rid his face of a smile. clearly he had laughed as my idiot self ran into the door. Squeezing the bridge of my nose i tried to compose myself as the door opened. 

"Ah Miss Chambers if i remember correctly." 

"y y yes sir," i weakly said as I tried rubbing the pain away in my forehead. 

Mr. Welch looked at me for a second with a concerned look on his face now. "Are you ok Miss Chambers?" 

I tried my best to steady my voice as a lump in my throat formed. "I am fine," i said as a low sob escaped my voice. 

I fought back the lump in my throat and finally won, but not before one tear made its way from the corner of my eye and down my cheek. Absolutely wonderful! I made an ass out of myself this morning, and now i was crying. Of course i have Mrs. Applegate to thank for this. She was the one who had completely broken my mood today! She was the one who had to snap at me for practically nothing. Normally i would be totally fine with everything that had just happened, but right now i just felt like falling to the floor and sobbing.

A small chuckle escaped Mr. Welch's mouth. "Miss Chambers it is quite alright. Today is the first day and i will let your slight tardiness slide for today, but please do not make it a habit or it could land you in detention with me. 

Quickly composing myself I looked Mr. Welch in the eyes and nodded my head. I looked away before breathlessly saying, "Sorry."

"Go grab your things. They are still under my desk, and please make your way to your seat."

I felt like his eyes were boring into me and i felt the all too familiar flush creep up to my cheeks. i shook my head quickly, and moved passed Mr. welch as quickly as i could. Walking over through the classroom to grab my things i heard small snickers and laughs coming from the other students. this deepened my blush and i tried to hide my face. After i got my things i noticed that the only seat in the classroom was the front and center one. Wonderful! I actually wanted that seat earlier, but after all of the events of the day I was hoping to catch a seat in the back! I slowly took the seat and tried to think on the bright side. At least i was going to have something good to look at for an hour and fifteen minutes!
