That Girl Should Be Me

*Lauren’s POV*
(Later in the day)

It was finally lunch time and I was so happy I didn’t have to be cooped up in another classroom. I made my way into the lunch room and spotted Jake, Brooke, and Jason all seated at a table together.

“Hey baby”, Jake said as I sat down next to him and he kissed me on the cheek. “How has your day been so far?”

“Pretty good my teachers are all really easy going and laid back and the classes themselves don’t sound like they are going to be too difficult”, I said as I start eating my sandwich.

“That’s good”, he says as he turns to Jason and starts talking to him about the upcoming football game Friday night.

I started looking around the lunch room to see if I recognized anyone in our lunch period. That’s when I first saw him. His curly brown hair, his light blue button up, khaki pants, and his perfect smile with his dimple showing. Who was this guy? Was he a new student? A new teacher? I had no idea who he was but I was suddenly really interested in finding out.

“Laur did you hear?” Brooke says nudging me in the side.

“Hello earth to Lauren”, I turn and look at Brooke who is trying to find out what I had previously been staring at.

“What sorry I was looking at the lunch menu board. What were you saying?” I asked.

“Did you hear about our new English teacher Mr. Styles?” she said.

“No. I haven’t. Why is he some old creep that hates his job?” I asked rolling my eyes waiting to hear what she had to say.

“NO! Mr. Styles is our new English teacher and the gossip going around school today is he is REALLY hot and single”, she said emphasizing the word really.

“Brooke you have a boyfriend!” I say as I slap her arm.

“Hey! That doesn’t mean I want in his pants! I’m just telling you what I have heard from all the other girls in our grade today geesh!”

“Well I guess I will have to take a look for myself later when we go to his class. For now the only guy that I think is hot is my boyfriend”, I say as I turn and look at Jake. Jason and Jake started listening once me and Brooke started getting louder with our conversation.

“And that is why I love you”, Jake said as he kissed my cheek multiple times before he kissed my lips. I started laughing when I heard Brooke and Jason making gaging noises.

“Hey you guys do it all the time so shut it”, I said as I smiled at Jake and then continued to eat my lunch.

*Few Periods Later*

“Aren’t you excited to find out who this Mr. Styles is?” Brooke says as we head to our last class of the day which is English.

“I mean he is just our teacher Brooke. I have a boyfriend and so do you! Why are you crushing so hard on a man that is our teacher? That is wrong on so many levels”, I say as we walk into the room and take our seats near the back. The bell rings and in walks the man I laid eyes on earlier.

“Good afternoon class. My name is Mr. Styles and I am going to be your English teacher this year.”

I stared at the angelic figure standing at the front of the room. He started talking more, but I was too concentrated on observing Mr. Styles that it startled me when Brooke started shaking me and pointing towards him.

“And what is your name Miss.?” He asked as he stared deeply in my eyes. I started blushing as I slowly stood up.

“Lauren. Lauren Shepard”, I said feeling caught off guard and slightly embarrassed for staring at him and not paying attention.

“Well Lauren it’s very nice to meet you, but maybe you should start paying a little more attention”, he said and winked at me. Suddenly a couple Jocks started laughing and the laughter spread throughout the class.I was utterly embarrassed that the whole class saw me staring at Mr. Styles.

“Okay that’s enough. Quiet down everyone. This class will consist of lots of creative writing, essays, and plays. Every day I will expect everyone to come in with a journal and write about a prompt. You will have 15 minutes to complete it each day”, Mr. Styles went on.

I sat back in my seat, my nerves finally calming from the embarrassing episode that took place between me and Mr. Styles. Mr. Styles then continued to talk about himself, more about the class, and what other materials we would need. I was so infatuated by him. I couldn’t get over how cute his British accent was and how his dimple would appear when he laughed really hard or smiled really big. He was adorable.

Brooke passed me a note and I opened it to read ‘I told you he was hot. You even got a wink! Have you noticed him staring at you ever since?’

I wrote back in the note ‘He is really hot and no I haven’t noticed that? Is it obvious that he is?’ I folded the note back up and went to pass it back to Brooke when I noticed a dark shadow hang over me. It was Mr. Styles standing in front of me with his hand stuck out.

“What do we have here?” he asks looking between Brooke and I. I handed him the note and he walked back up to the front of the room and took a seat at his desk. He opened up the note and started smirking.

“Miss. Shepard I would like to see you after class please”, Mr. Styles said as he looked at me in the back of the room. I looked over at Brooke confused as to why I was the only one getting in trouble when we were both passing the note. The bell finally rang and I walked up to his desk. This was going to be interesting.
