The Music Professor

Back In

When we arrive at the football field, you could tell Nicky was utterly nervous. She was shaking slightly and chewing on her bottom lip a lot.

We walk up to the Coach, who's gathering the footballs into a net but he's yet to notice us.

"L-Louis." Nicky finally stutters out, her voice cracking. Louis whips his head around and the smile that was on his face quickly disappears.

"Nic, what's the matter?" He asks, placing a hand on her shoulder.

"Can we all go to the locker room to talk? It's not...safe out here." She tells him. He gives her a puzzled look but nods so we all walk to the locker room.

Once inside, Louis turns to her.

"Now tell me, babe."

"I...got kicked out of college today." She says slowly, trying to keep her composure.

"What?" He breathes then glances to Harry and I. "This...This can't be true."

"It is, mate." Harry speaks up. "She took a situation into her own hands. She told the head mistress that she was fooling with a teacher to protect J.R. from getting expelled."

"Why was-"

"Those three awful girls from my high school had evidence that J.R. and the Professor were fooling around. They were gonna use it against her." Nicky interrupts the Coach. "I couldn't let the school come between them."

"What's gonna happen to you though, love?" He asks. "I...don't want to lose you." He grasps her hands in his, rubbing her knuckles with his thumbs.

"I'm not sure what's gonna happen." She says. "If this gets out, I probably won't get into another college. I'll have to move back home...they'll probably hate me for messing around with a teacher and kick me out of the house." Silent tears roll down her cheeks and she sniffles slightly. "Oh God, what am I gonna do?" Sobs start escaping her lips so Louis wraps his arms around her protectively, petting her head a bit. There are tears in his eyes that are threatening to escape. God, this is so sad.

"We can't let this happen." I mutter to Harry. "Nicky should be here, not at home where no one cares about her."

"What're you gonna do?" He whispers.

"I'm going to talk to the head mistress. You have your friend hack into the twat's phones and delete whatever evidence they have."

-

I arrive in the head mistress's office, dragging Nicky in with me who's still crying slightly.

"Miss Anders, Miss Thompson. How may I assist you two?"

"You can't expel Nicky, Head Mistress." I exclaim. "She deserves to be here more than anyone."

"Why shouldn't I expel Miss Thompson? She's been sneaking around with a teacher on my campus. I won't have that at my school." She tells me.

"You don't understand. She lied to you about all of that." I explain. "She was trying to protect me."

"So you're the one messing around with a teacher?"

"No, no." I say. "Patty, Maddie, and Charlotte claimed they had evidence that I was the one sneaking around with a teacher so that I would be harsh and rude to Nicky. They really don't like her but I don't understand why."

"How do you know this?" She questions.

"They're absolutely awful to her. You can even ask Professor Styles. They were mean to her in front of him a few times." I tell her. She raises an eyebrow at me but picks up her phone and dials a number. She talks for a bit then hangs up and glances back to us.

"It seems as if what you say about the three girls are correct." She says. "Nonetheless, I'll need to get them in here to see if they do or do not have evidence." I just nod and she picks up her phone again.

The door opens after about 15 minutes and in walks Patty, Maddie, and Charlotte.

"Phones, please." The head mistress calls, holding out her hand. Each girl gives her their phone and she goes through each individual one then gives them back.

"Why did you go through our phones?" Patty whines.

"To see if you had any evidence against Miss Anders. But you don't, so you're free to go."

"What?!" Charlotte screams. "We do have evidence against her! She's fooling around with the Music Professor!"

"Do not scream." Head Mistress demands. "You don't have any evidence. There's nothing on your phone that is evidence to that. You girls can leave." Charlotte screams then storms out and the other girls follow her quickly.

"What does this mean for me, Head Mistress?" Nicky inquires, wiping tears from her cheeks.

"I'll reinstate the scholarships you've received and put you back into all of your classes. You're officially back in, Miss Thompson." She explains. "But please, let's not have any of this nonsense happen again."

"Thank you so much." Nicky smiles then we both exit quickly. She stops me once outside of the building and gives me a massive hug. "Thank you too, Jennifer. You got me back in so thank you so much."

"I should be the one thanking you. You're the one who put me first instead of you, getting expelled just so I could stay here. You're the best." I squeeze her then we both pull away from each other.

"Let's go tell the guys." She says. I nod so we jog back to the locker room where Harry and the Coach are waiting.

"So?" Louis says expectantly, holding his hands out away from him a bit.

"I'm back in." Nicky tells them happily, a big grin forming on her face. The Coach smiles widely and scoops her up into a giant hug.

"So you did it, huh?" Harry chuckles. "I'm glad that you got Miss Thompson back in. You two make really great friends for each other."

"Thanks, Harry." I smile. "I'm glad that I got her back in because her and Louis were made for each other."

"How can you tell?"

"Just look at the way they look at each other." I say, gesturing to them. "They're eyes always gleam or sparkle when they see each other. Plus, they're both excellent football players and they're sassy as well."

"That's the same as you and I, yeah?" He questions. "I mean, we look at each other as they do. And I'd say that the way that they look at each other is in a very.....loving way."

"Loving way?" I ask. "Are you trying to say something?"

"I'm just very ecstatic that you aren't going anywhere, darling." He grabs my hand with his index finger and thumb, tilting my mouth to his as he connects our lips together. "I hope that you don't ever have to be away from me, Jennifer Rose."
