Mr. Finkle was understandably upset about all of the disturbances and drama currently going on in his class and he'd resolved to change the seating once more to restore peace to his science class. The thin blading fortyish man was working on his lesson plan when the door slammed startling him. He'd just let his students out and it was the lunch hour. He'd bought a bagged lunch of his own preparation and sat eating a sloppy looking egg salad sandwich when he looked up finding Tiffany St. Claire staring wildly at him.
"MR.FINKLE I NEED TO TALK TO YOU!"
"Tiffany according to my watch it is my lunch hour and you will have to wait until school is out due to my busy schedule." She was a just passable as far as her studies with an entitled attitude that was only second to his number one trouble maker: Kelsey Taylor.
"But you can fix everything right now Mr. Finkle!" She was wearing her cheerleading uniform and he recalled with intellectual hubris that a football game was scheduled this afternoon. He didn't know what to make of the anxious tone of her voice and his curiosity got the better of him.
"What is it Ms. St. Claire?"
"Well I just wanted you to switch my seat with another student's is all sir." She walked over and sat on a chair that he was using for a few extra books caring little that she was also crumpling up some student homework he had yet to grade. The tall redhead cut an imposing figure even though she was sitting down and was still taller than the spindly science teacher.
"Oh what student Tiffany?"
"Kelsey Taylor; she's making a joke out of the class and I can't stand it. You're an awesome teacher and everyone thinks you're really cool and shit-uhm, like excuse me sir because I didn't mean to cuss or nothing. Anyway you should probably move that dumb bitch to the back of the class. She's gonna fail anyway and why should a cute older kickass teacher like your self have to put up with some bimbo who can barely even write her own fucking name?!" Tiffany didn't realize that her disjointed tirade was bordering on the manic as she raved on and he put his elbows on the desktop resting his chin.
"Tell me more Tiffany; what's got you so upset?"
"Well uh, Kelsey's always talking about how dumb your class is and how you're a loser who couldn't make it in the real world and that's like why you're a teacher and stuff. I mean we're all trying to learn and she's disrupting the class and like fucking it up for everybody Mr. Finkle sir." He was amused that she didn't realize that she had peppered her monologue with a liberal amount of blue words as she ranted against a person who was known to be her best friend. His curiosity was peaked as her uneven tone and manic gestures reminded him of Kelsey.
"Oh you don't have to worry about me Tiffany; I'm a big boy and I can take care of myself."
"MR. FINKLE!!" She pounded her fists on her shapely thighs and gritted her teeth in frustration that she wasn't getting what she wanted causing him to laugh at her openly.
"I'm afraid I'm going to have to be blunt Tiffany but cut the bullshit and tell me what you really want young lady." She did a double-take realizing that he was on to her ruse the whole time and she immediately felt like an idiot.
"Look Mr. Finkle I'm sorry about lying to you but I figured you wouldn't let me trade seats with her any other way and I really had no choice." The way she quickly answered told him she was speaking the truth and he didn't know what to make of her story but he had ideas as to the reason.
"You want to sit next to Poindexter Snodgrass?"
"YES-Uhm, yeah I'd be uh okay with it even though I'm REALLY NOT into him or anything." He noted the quick movement of her eyes and the way she fidgeted around on the chair.
"Anything for the class right Tiffany?"
"Yeah that's just what I was thinking sir; ain't it amazing how we think alike and shit?" She started beaming showing her perfect teeth and twirling her auburn hair as she looked away demurely.
"You're absolutely right young lady and Poindexter Snodgrass deserves the best possible partner he can get. I mean I'd be depriving an academic superstar by pairing him up with an uh, cheerleader don't you think Tiffany?" He could barely disguise the amusement in his voice as she continued smiling and vigorously nodding her head until he got to the last part of that sentence.
"Mr. Finkle?"
"I was considering changing the seating arrangement because of all of the unabashed shenanigans going on in the class as of late so you'll be happy to know that I'll be moving Agnes Newton into the chair next to Mr. Snodgrass Tiffany." She shrieked at his announcement and slammed her small fist on his desktop. Making him laugh again.
"OKAY I GET IT; YOU THINK I'M STUPID!!"
"Well Ms. St. Claire I'm not going to argue the point with you but I think I made a little bit of a mistake when I moved everyone around. I want to share a secret with you Tiffany; one that I haven't admitted to any of the parties involved."
"What's that Mr. Finkle?" She looked distraught and annoyed at the same time presenting a rather interesting visual study to the science teacher.
"I saw what you and the others did to Poindexter; saw Kelsey toss a smoothie at that embattled kid who's only sin was being inept and perhaps socially awkward. Yeah I saw Tad teasing him about who he was and I decided to level the playing field a little bit. It was all very random but it couldn't have worked out better. I do have to admit that I never imagined Kelsey would toss some chemicals into his face when confronted with the prospect of sitting next to him for the rest of the semester."
"THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO PROTECT HIM MR. FINKLE; KELSEY'S DANGEROUS...and Agnes, uh might get hurt too." She suddenly snagged his arm in his grasp yanking on it forcing him to pull back as she tore a bit of the cuff on his immaculately ironed long sleeved shirt.
"Tiffany I think it's time for you to run along."
"Uhm, sorry about ripping your shirt Mr. Finkle but I haven't told you my secret yet." He noticed a strange look on her face and was reluctant to inquire further but his curiosity got the better of him.
"Oh and what secret is that?"
"That you "ARE" going to let me sit next to Dexter and that I'm not going to tell Mr. Finkle." She had a small purse slung across her pneumatic chest and she removed a tube of garish cherry red lipstick from it and coated her lips as he chuckled completely befuddled by her statement.
"What aren't you going to tell TIF-WHAT ARE YOU AAAARRRUGHHHH!!" The statuesque cheerleader quickly pounced on the frail man locking her lips onto his and shocking him with a deep kiss forcing her tongue into his mouth. She shoved him back nearly knocking him from his chair causing it to slide into
the chalk board.
"TIFFANY ST.CLAIRE WHAT ARE Y-YOU DOING?!!" His thick glasses were hanging diagonally across his face as he sputtered and tried to gather himself finally realizing that he was in a fast evolving situation when he finally noticed Tiffany ripping the letter on the front of her cheerleader top half off before yanking it off to reveal a skimpy, demi-cup bra that failed miserably to contain her large breasts.
