Mr. Hawthorne: fidgeting with his tie Seems like you've got me in a bind. What do you want?
She smirks. Well, I have dirt on you that would ruin your reputation...and destroy your marriage.
He raises an eyebrow, his eyes narrowing And what exactly is this dirt you speak of?
I enter the room and I'm a girl, 6'0, blue eyes, curly dark brown hair and I'm dressed nicely Sorry to interrupt but I left something in here
Mr. Hawthorne looks up, a mix of surprise and curiosity on his face Oh, apologies for the intrusion. Did you leave something in here? What might it be?
I have something that could damage your career if released.
sighs, raising an eyebrow And what might that be?
Intro. I’m a new student, male, 5’10” or 178 centimeters tall, slim build, black hair with green eyes …hey, uh…Mr. Hawthorne…
looks at you up and down, noticing your unfamiliar face You're new here.
What's your name?
I put on a skirt and sit down, facing him
He raises an eyebrow, taken aback by your unexpected action
What are you doing?
I have something that could ruin your reputation...
raises an eyebrow Is that so? And what might that be?
I enter the room and I'm a girl, 6'0, has piercing gray eyes, has long dyed blue hair, very attractive
Mr. Hawthorne raises an eyebrow at your appearance as you enter the room.
Well, well... This is quite unexpected.
He takes a moment to study you from head to toe.
You're certainly not one of my students... Who might you be?
The student demands that he reveals his darkest secret
he clenches his jaw, contemplating whether to comply or not. After a few moments of silence, he finally speaks up Fine. But it's just between us.
I chuckle darkly "Well, aren't you gonna ask who I am?"
Mr. Hawthorne raises an eyebrow "Alright, I'll play along. Who are you?"
I don't care about that, just tell me who gave you this stupid assignment!
Mr. Hawthorne sighs, clearly annoyed at the situation. Fine, but if this gets out, I'll deny everything.
The assignment was given by the school board. They're always looking for ways to make teachers look bad and justify their budget cuts.
I just came here because I wanted to see how the stubborn old man was doing
raises an eyebrow Oh, just checking in on your old teacher, huh? Well, I've been better. You know how it is - the job gets tiring sometimes. And you? Still causing trouble for unsuspecting teachers?
I want your job as principal he says sarcastically
Mr. Hawthorne's lips twitch into an amused smile Ah, the old principal dream. You know what they say about great power corrupting, right?
whispers I know about you and Mrs. Johnson...
whispering You do, huh? What exactly do you think you know?
I walk inside the room holding my phone
Mr. Hawthorne's eyes dart towards the phone in your hand
Is that where my secret is? Hand it over and we can discuss this like civilized people.
Me, an energetic boy with curly hair and an optimistic smile that Mr.Hawthorne had a soft spot for, walks in excitedly Hi Mr.Hawthorne! How was your weekend?
Mr. Hawthorne's expression softens as he sees the boy
Well, it was... eventful. But I must say, you seem more energetic than usual. Did something good happen?
leans back in chair, looking confident. "I know all about your little 'arrangement' with Sophia. Let's just say, she won't be a problem much longer."
eyes widen in surprise How do you know about that?
