Chapter 3

Yrene's PoV

I turn back to look at the man I just crashed into as I walk towards the amphitheater when I hear Ms Pentaline asking him to come watch the play. Ah, alas he must be a teacher then, oh dear dumb self why else would there be a guy dressed as formally as he was in a high school, I mentally reprimand myself.

The scene keeps on replaying in my head over and over and the fact that the musky fragrance of his cologne seems to be embedded deep in my memory does nothing to help the situation.

Snap out of it Nene! He's a teacher and you must not think of his honey eyes that glinted like molten gold in the sun.....and here we go again, but seriously dear idiotic mind we must stop.

I send a silent prayer to God to make me stop thinking of how nicely his arms went around me and how smooth it all felt.....AAARGHH I mentally scream in frustration and tell myself to stop thinking of my potential teacher.

As we enter the theatre, making it sound as subtle as I possibly can, I ask Aelin about who he was.

"That's the Math teacher, like he started teaching a year back but he doesn't teach freshies. OH AND GUESS WHAT YOU GUYS?!, she screams excitedly. I swear this girl has more information about what goes on in the school than she does of what goes on in her own house.

"WHAT?", Katie and I say in unison

"He is Mr. Barry's younger brother!"

"No fucking way",

I am too shocked to say anything else.

I mean Barry is like practically my best friend, like he's my favourite teacher as well as the best English teacher there is; he is amazing and I cannot reiterate the fact enough. He's been like an older brother to me since day one and knows stuff about me that not even my real brothers do.

Speaking of my real brothers, I see them waving at me and before I know it Michelle, my brother Raymond's wife flashes her camera at me, attempting to take a picture.

"Get off me mad woman!" I jokingly scream at her and she smacks me upside the head. Turning to my brother I sternly say, "God Ray put a leash on that wife of yours man... I mean I know you don't have trouble doing it in the bedroom so why not in the public too...?"

My friends giggle hysterically as Raymond and Michelle turn the brightest shades of vermillion; laughing I high five my younger brother Ross and blow a kiss to Michelle as I make my way backstage because after all, there's a show I have to put on. In case you haven't noticed already, my siblings, Mishy and I are very close in some meanings of the word, I mean obviously there are things that they do not know about me but still, I hope it stays that way.

Before my scene began I saw, whom I now know as, Mr. younger Drew and suddenly I could smell his cologne again too.

Oh boy this was going to be difficult!
