The student in wish I learned to be named Addison (Addy) Reed answered with a smile, completely ignoring my question. I let out a tired sigh as I held my shoulder, "Are you stiff, Ms. Principal?" I heard her say with a grin.
I just looked at her confused, she stuck out one finger making a circular motion, obviously wanting me to turn around. I raised my eyebrow at this, "What are you trying to do Addison?" I said as I did what she wanted.
Hearing shuffling and a thud I knew that she had climbed inside my office window, "You know there is a door for a reason, right?" Feeling both her hands on my shoulders two times as she controlled me to my seat.
"You are the kind of principal to lock your door. What happens if a fire breaks out?" I said as I started to slowly massage her shoulders, feeling her stiffen a bit but then letting loose made me smile.
"Fire? I heard that these walls were fireproof and you just want it to be open so you can sneak off from classes. I have heard a lot about you, Ms. Reed", I heard Ms. Hall say as I lightly touched the nape of her neck with my cold fingers, making her shiver. 'Sweet spot?'.
"The walls might be fireproof but is your flesh made of the same materials? I hope that you only heard the best things about me." Lowering my eyes, I started to go down with my fingers to where her shoulder area would end.
"That's dark but true nonetheless, I will keep that in mind the next time I lock the door, well if you mean the best as in burning the previous maths teacher's car, trashing a student's locker, and then sleeping with his mom?"
I looked up as Addison took a drag from the cigarette that she was holding between her slender lips as she let out a burst of heartfelt laughter, I could tell that she enjoyed our conversation as she let out a satisfied sigh. "Well, you don't seem too stiff now, Ms. Hall?" She looked at me curiously, obviously wanting to know my name already.
"Caroline," I told her, she repeated my name to herself with a thoughtful tone. Hearing a knocking on the door, I let the person on the other side wait as I unlocked the door.
It was the maths teacher Dario Alinsky, "Hello Principal Hall. Here is the paper that you requested from the maths department earlier" he said to me as he handed me a stack of papers. He gazed inside and saw Addison standing in my office with her cigarette uninterested as she looked at the bookshelf.
Knowing that he saw her I said that I ran into her while she was going to the toilet and asked her to come to me. He smiled nodding and left, I closed and locked the door again.
Letting out a sigh, I turned around to see Addison sitting on my desk, staring at me. "What are you looking at?", "Do you know if other people will be in the detention hall beside us two?" I walked to my desk and took a seat.
"Well no one is problematic enough to be in trouble on the week of the ball night, Besides you of course" she nodded. She stood up and put the cigarette out and threw it at the now open window and said she has to go back to class and for me not to miss her too badly or she would feel sad.
Rolling my eyes at her as she left my office 'Who would miss you?...'
