Robin had just finished unpacking the last of her boxes. She sat down in the old wooden chair behind her new desk and surveyed her new domain. She was pleased, excited, nervous and even a little scared. This was her first official teaching job. As she looked around the room she began to imagine the seniors at Grim Woods High School engaging in discussions and building a foundation in which to create mouth watering deserts. She couldn't wait for her first lesson, she had been preparing it since she was in college two years ago and in less than 48 hours she would fulfill her lifelong dream.
'I did it... I did it!! Grandma would be so proud of me,' she thought. Her grandmother was her inspiration to begin not only cooking but to become a teacher as well. She was also a teacher at Grim Woods High School more than 50 years ago. The Riderhood name has been iconic there since the school opened in the 1920's. There have been four generations of Riderhood woman molding young minds here and Robin was proud to carry on that legacy. Robin cleaned up her things and headed for home. She just couldn't wait till Monday!

Monday morning arrived and Robin awoke bright and early. It was 5:30am. She jumped out of bed as the alarm clock chimed, reset it and headed to the closet to grab her workout gear. At 26 years old, Robin was in top shape and she intended to keep it that way. Her 5'9" petite frame was easy to keep tone with a light workout at home and a quick jog around the neighborhood.
Returning home she showered and dressed in her favorite outfit, a bright red skirt that stopped just a few inches above the knee. Red was her favorite color, in fact she wore it so much that her college friends nicknamed her 'Red!' A pure white silk blouse and black stockings finished it off. Robin loved to wear heels with a skirt, but with the 14 hour day ahead of her she opted for a comfy pair of tennis shoes. Sitting down in front of the mirror, she brushed her long blonde hair and wrapped it up into a ponytail, securing it with a beautiful gold and diamond pin she inherited from her grandmother.

The drive was uneventful and Robin arrived at Grim Woods High School just after 7:00am. That gave her almost an hour to get ready for her first day. Entering the office Robin was greeted by the admin staff of ladies as she headed to the copy machine to print out her recipes for the days lecture.
"Robin?" a voice called from behind. Robin turned around and saw Gracie Mapin, the head of the Culinary Arts program.
"Hi Mrs. Mapin," Robin replied cheerfully, "Just getting my first recipes together for class today. I'm starting them off easy with chocolate brownies!"
"Hmmm... brownies are my favorite treat. Please save me one!" Gracie said licking her lips. "Oh and Robin, I'm only 36 years old... please call me Gracie, you'll make me feel old otherwise. Did you workout today?"
"Yep, actually ran 3 miles today. I had a ton of energy this morning. I think I might have been trying to run out the nerves." Robin replied with a little giggle.
"Well, keep it up you look great!" Gracie said, "I think I will hit the pool after class for a few laps. Don't forget my brownie!" she said with a slightly seductive smile. As Gracie walked away, Robin couldn't help but survey the short red-haired beauty. She was only 5'6" maybe 110lbs, large maybe store bought breasts and sexy curves leading to a cute little rear. She reminded Robin of her stage mate at the Tycoon's Gentlemen's Club she worked at while putting herself through school. As Robins mind pictured Gracie in a swimsuit, she felt a soft warm breeze across the back of her neck. Turning around she was inches from Principal Wolfe.
"Good morning Robin, excited for your first day?" Brad Wolfe asked.
"Oh yes! I was just finishing up some copies for my lecture. Thank you again for the opportunity Principal Wolfe."
"Please Robin, my friends call me Big Brad, I think of all the teachers here as friends. Don't you agree?" the large man stated. Brad was a monster of a man, 6'4" and 230 pounds of muscle. Big Brad Wolfe was a retired NFL linebacker who earned his higher education degree while playing for the Detroit Lions in the 1990's. His career was cut short by a knee injury but that didn't keep him from the gym twice a day. He placed a high priority on fitness in his personal life, among his staff, and with the students as well. Brad often held contests at the school giving away prizes to students who worked hard to stay in shape.
"Of course we're friends Principal... err Big Brad, sorry," Robin replied with a smile but feeling a little uncomfortable. There was something about the way he looked at her. She knew the look... 4 years dancing at a topless club you see the look in every man's eyes every day. She'd learned to hate that look. But this was her dream job so she put her irritation aside and was pleasant to her new boss.
"Well gotta run Big Brad, I still need to prep the room. Have a great day!" Robin beamed as she sprinted from the room. Walking down the massive halls she exchanged smiles and 'good mornings' to the other teachers as they too headed into their classrooms.

Mrs. Lang stepped into the hall stopping Robin, "Hi Robin! Gracie told me we would be neighbors, I'm Rebecca Lang, but my friends call me Becky. I just wanted to say welcome to Grim Woods!"
"Oh, thank you Becky. It's nice to meet you. Gracie told me you are the go-to girl if I need anything." Robin said, "She said you've got connections!"
"Yep, I'm your girl." Becky replied with a heart-warming smile, "I've been here for 5 years... half way to tenure and I've been involved in a lot of departments here as well as a number of parent teacher organizations and after school activities. If there is something you need I can get it or tell you where to find it yourself." Becky continued in a more serious tone, "and there is one thing I tell all the new girls here at Grim Woods. Be careful around Brad. He has a bit of a history of sexual harassment towards the ladies, especially ones that look like you."
"And what exactly does that mean Mrs. Lang!" Robin barked back.
"Sweetheart, relax," Becky replied placing a hand on Robin's hip and pulling her closer to her. "What I mean is that you are a very attractive girl and Big Brad has a thing for cutie little things like you. He is very touchy-feely and I know his history, just be careful is all. I'm sorry if I offended you."
Robin felt a little spark when Becky touched her hip and it threw her off guard. "Uh... ok, thanks for the heads up Becky." She stammered as she broke free from Becky's touch. Shaking off the experience, Robin went to her classroom and prepped for class to begin.
