It was in fact a long class

Jack struggled to pay attention. He wasn't sitting close to Ms. Ambers like he usually did, or like he did yesterday. It was easier to pay attention to her if he was right under her nose. Not pay attention to what she was saying specifically, but pay attention to...other things.

He needed a reason to ask her what her first name is. Or maybe he should just bring it up in conversation? He had already planned to stay after class to talk to her, maybe he could just casually bring it up then.

Jack didn't know how he was going to get through the year if History was like this every day he thought to himself. He got up from his desk and started walking towards Ms. Ambers who has already sat down at her desk. At first Jack only wanted to talk to Ms. Ambers because she was gorgeous and he felt a need to be close to her. But now it actually seems like he really needs help with the class.

"Hi Ms. Ambers, you look really nice," He said

She struggled to hide a smirk, "What can I do for you Jack? You seemed to be struggling today?" she asked genuinely concerned for him.

"Yeah I was, it's easier for me to pay attention when I sit up front."

"Well how about I just reserve a seat up there for you?" she said, happy to be able to help with the problem.

"That'd be great, " he replied and took a sit in the desk closest to hers. "Do you have time to go over the lesson real quick?"

"Of course Jack, I'm glad that you're trying to improve and not just accepting defeat," she said as she stood up from her desk and walked over to Jack. She put her hand on his shoulder, "That really says a lot about you."

Ms. Ambers took a seat next to Jack and they started going through the lesson and some of the homework. After about 15 minutes Jack thought it would be the right time to ask her about her name.

"So, um, Ms. Ambers..." he said nervously

"Yes Jack?" she said still looking down and writing something on Jacks worksheet.

"What's...um, your first name? If you're okay with me asking." he said

She looked up at Jack from the paper, "What do you think it is?" she asked playfully.

This was unexpected...

"What happens if I guess it right the first time?" he said, surprised by her playful response.

"Hmm... Well let's just say you wouldn't say no if it were being offered to you."

Oh fuck me... Jack thought to himself, could she really be implying what he hoped she was implying, surely not.
