"This is our English department. As you can see some teachers have been made redundant due to cuts. Results haven't been effec--"

"Percentage currently passing English?" The man interupted with an unamused expression.

Kirstie sighed and tried to remember the exact number.

"67%." She replied faking another smile.

He nodded slowly and lifted his nose higher. As if he wasn't already ten foot taller than Kirstie anyway.

Luckily all the kids in the class were behaving, a few even had their hands up. Kirstie silently thanked the sky and breathed deep.

"I wish to see mathematics." He demanded, over exaggerating all the sounds in each word.

Kirstie smiled.

Scott was always good to show off- hard working, meets deadlines, overall a great teacher.

"Right this way. Perhaps we can meet the head of department too?" She suggested.

He nodded once and followed her down the hall.

"Is this illegal?" Mitch shouted with his head out the window.

"Who knows?" Avi replied, his head outside the opposite window.

They were brushing their teeth in the backseat of Scott's car. Scott didn't want them to spit all over his nice seats though so he made them do it out the car window.

"We're officially late." Scott muttered as he read the time.

He tapped the steering wheel impatiently and Mitch and Avi returned their heads to inside the car.

"It shouldn't take more than five minutes." Avi commented wiping some toothpaste from his cheek.

Mitch quickly applied some concealer and swallowed some painkillers after throwing the toothbrush back into his bag.

"We can just sneak in, Kirstie won't mind." Scott said to reassure himself. It worked a little but not enough.

That one piece of hair just wouldn't stay so Mitch got out his emergency hair spray from the bag.

He lifted it and pressed down on the top. Suddenly the whole backseat was covered with a cloud of misty spray.

Avi started to cough and choke which made Mitch laugh.

"You're trying to kill me!" He shouted after the hair spray cloud dispirited.

Mitch laughed and threw the can at him. Avi caught it and threw it back.

They repeated this laughing and joking until Scott pulled up at the gates of the school.

"Stop flirting and get out." Scott said loudly making both men stop and blush.

Scott parked the car and the three of them collected their things and made their way towards the entrance.

They used their passes and snuck into the back door. Scott waved at them silently and made his way up the stair well.

"Percentage currently passing mathematics?" The inspector asked as they walked towards the math corridor.

Kirstie's heels clicked along the floors and she was sure you could actually hear the cogs turning in her brain.

He would know if she lied right? Whatever.

"71%." She lied, praying he wouldn't notice.

He didn't reply, only followed Kirstie towards the rooms.

Scott took two, sometimes three, steps at a time. He pushed the doors open and saw his class waiting outside.

"You know if the teacher doesn't turn up in like ten minutes or something we can leave." He heard one say as he approached them.

He apologised and opened his door letting them filter in slowly.

Just then he heard some repetitive clicks that sounded like footsteps. Scott turned around and in the distance he saw Kirstie walking towards him with an extremely tall man behind her.

He quickly pushed the last few students into the room and clapped his hands.

"Ok, some guy is about to come in with the principle. You have to be good, pretend we've been here from the beginning, books out, go!"

It was times like this when Scott was glad his kids liked him. They actually didn't want anything bad to happen to him because, even though he was a math teacher, they liked him.

Everyone got their books out and wrote the date as Scott turned on the projector. It was still on yesterday's lesson so it would do.

Just as he threw his bag down behind his desk, his door opened.

"Mr.Hoying." Kirstie greeted with a smile.

He was breathing very heavily but tried to hide it as he shook her hand.

The class scribbled down whatever was on the board and kept quiet. Scott looked over at them and smiled.

Thank god.

"Sorry we're late." Avi mumbled as they unlocked the door.

Mitch stood next to Avi as the students entered the room. They didn't seem to care, probably happy for the ten minute break they'd just had outside the room.

"What's this lesson about?" Avi whispered leaning into Mitch's side.

With a giggle, Mitch shrugged and pushed back against him. He had no idea what the lesson was about or what grade they were even in. His mind wasn't really working yet.

Avi walked into the room and announced. "Continue from last lesson."

When they all started working Avi smiled proudly.

"Last night was fun." Mitch said quietly, hating to admit that he enjoyed Avi's company.

Avi blushed a little but turned his head so Mitch couldn't see. "Yeah. I should come more often."

Mitch, being the filthy minded person he was, laughed obnoxiously with his hand over his mouth.

It took a few seconds to understand why Mitch was laughing but eventually Avi rolled his eyes.

Mitch soon recovered and continued the conversation. "It was fun. This month's going really fast, oh my god."

Avi flattened the hair on the sides of his head and replied. "I know, it's the 20th already."

"The next thing you know, it's gonna be 2018 and I've got a husband." Mitch said comically.

They both laughed which made a few students turn and look at them.

"You wanna get married?" Avi asked quietly so they wouldn't get so much attention.

"I guess? Just need to find the perfect man." He teased. "What about you, Abbie?"

Avi gave him a look for using that nickname. "I hate you."

He leant his chin on his hand and continued. "I wanna have loads of kids and a cat and a wife/husband."

"Wife/husband." Mitch repeated.

"I wanna live in the woods or the mountains and teach my kids how to climb." Avi said going to that happy place in his mind where he has a family.

He saw a scene of two little boys running around being chased by their little sister. They all had red cheeks and freckles on their noses, the two boys had yet black hair but the girl had brown.

They'd run around Avi and try and hide from each other whilst laughing uncontrollably. He heard his name in the distance and turned to see his husband waiting for him in the kitchen. He left the kids and started to walk over to him.

As he got closer he realised who it was.

"Mitch?"
