ISABELLE


    Luna was a little shaken but she visibly rxed when I stood up for her. That is all that she needed. Someone on her side who said enough is enough. Figures that Alex Saxon is on the boys side. Never mind that the boy tormented this girl. No, he’s one of the boys. It’s like that boys will be boys crap that people have peddled for years. Doesn’t he realize that crap doesn’t fly anymore.


    The next morning I am more than happy to let things go. As long as Alex Saxon stays on his own side of the hall. I promised to pick up Luna this morning because she was a little worried that Kyle would meet her at school this morning. I am not sure how we are going to handle this going forward. I don’t know if I will be there next school year, most likely not because of the assholes in charge.


    When Luna and I get to ss she takes a seat and starts going through something on herptop. I don’t have much to set up since mostly it is all discussion. I did find a few visuals to help with the two questions we are going to be discussing today.


    I am setting up myputer to show the visuals on the board when my ssroom door opens. I look over to see Alex Saxon. I really don’t have the patience for him this morning. “What could you possibly want?”


    He looks a little irritated but he presses on. “I came here because of Luna. I didn’t know what Kyle had done. I sat him down and talked to him about it. He would like to apologize today after school.”


    Luna starts shaking her head. “I don’t want to be alone with him.”


    He starts shaking his head. “You won’t be. I’ll be there, also if you would like Ms. Wright can be there too.”


    Luna gets quiet. It takes a few minutes of thought before she looks at me. “Will you be there?”


    “Yeah, of course I will be there. If you really want to hear him out then I will be there the whole time.”


    She looks over at Alex Saxon. “I will meet him here after ss. I want to be here. I’m morefortable with Ms. Wright.”


    Alex Saxon seems a little upset by that. Like it offends him that she isn’tfortable with him. “I understand. I hope that you can also understand that in the future you can alsoe to me with these problems. You shouldn’t have had to deal with this on your own. You should have spoken to a teacher. I’m sorry you didn’t feel safe.”


    I heave a sigh of relief. At least he got that much. I would have had to kill him if he med her.


    Luna gets a little shyer. “He said no one would believe me.”


    “I would have. I hope you can see that in the future.” He states.


    He turns back to me. “Sound alright to you Kindergarten teacher?”


    “Sounds like the Kindergarten teacher solved a problem that you didn’t even know existed.” I fold my arms over my chest to show that I am none too thrilled with him. Not that he really cares what I think about him.


    “Yeah, well, I would have figured it out. I didn’t really need your help.” He counters.


    “Why are you still here?” I spit out. He is just getting on my nerves.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.


    “You know what, I have no idea.” He turns and leaves the room.


    I turn back to Luna who is smirking. “What is that look for?”


    She smiles more. “I think he likes you.”


    “I don’t think so.” I shake my head, getting back to the task at hand. “I think he just doesn’t want me here.”


    She shrugs. “I still think that he likes you. But what do I know?”
