A/N: Ok so this fanfic will be set in the term after 9b. It is written from Sue's point of view (POV). I hope you enjoy it and let me know what you think of it.

I walked into the building of Waterloo Road. For once, I didn't actually feel scared or nervous. I was looking forward for Simon to be permanent head of the school, it would've been brilliant. But my dad made the decision to give the headship to another man; he was called Vaughn. I made my way into the staff room, made a cup of coffee and grabbed a seat. Vaughn and another woman made their way into the staff room.
"Hello everyone my name is Vaughn Fitzgerald and this is Allie Westbrook who will also be joining the teaching staff" announced Vaughn "I hope I will make Waterloo Road a even better school as well a continuing running the school and keeping it strong"
'That could of been Simon' I thought, trying to forget it. Ever since I started working at the school I was obsessed with trying to get Simon to get the headship that I made more enemies than friends. I saw Simon starting to talk with Vaughn and I walked towards them.
"You must be Sue" said Vaughn "Your father has told me all about you"
"Oh erm ok" I said, wondering what things exactly my dad had told Vaughn. I made my way back to my chair and continued to sip my cup of coffee.

All the other staff including Audrey, Maggie, George and Christine were either sitting down and drinking tea or preparing for their classes.
"So Christine, how does it feel that your just an average member teaching staff?" I asked, I wasn't trying to be rude but it was the only way for me to make conversation. I was sure all the staff hated me except from the new staff members and Simon. And maybe one more person. That one person had just made their way into the staff room; it was Hector. Hector apologised to Vaughn for being late and they both introduced themselves to each other. I looked at Hector and I wanted to run a mile. I hadn't seen him since the end of last term, I was moaning to him outside the pub and all of a sudden when I tried to grab my phone off him, he grabbed me towards him and kissed me. I felt so bad, I felt like I had betrayed Simon even though I wasn't the one to kiss Hector and I pushed him off me. I just felt so guilty that my lips touched mine. But most of all, I wanted to know why on earth he did it.
'Maybe he just kissed me to shut me up' I thought 'Or maybe he wants another woman now Nikki is gone'

Hector looked at me and grinned. He always grinned, it pretty much annoyed me. Hector watched Simon walk out of the staff room, to sort some stuff out with Vaughn. He looked at me and sat by me.
"How's my lady?" Hector grinned as he put his arm around my shoulder. I just shook it off violently. I wasn't in the mood for his jokes and I didn't think i'd ever be. I felt so uncomfortable by him, I just wanted him to go.
"Hector, just get lost" I demanded. I moved down the seat; trying to get more further away from him.
"Oh why should I?" Hector asked "You seemed very satisfied after our little move outside the pub, I thought you'd like some more"
"Look Hector" I said "You kissed me, I pushed you off because I think your a total prat. Just forget it"
"Oh and that's what Nikki thought of me" Hector smiled "And I got far with her. She's still in a happy relationship with your sister"
"That's because they are in Berlin" I pointed out "So they are nowhere near you. Or me for that matter. Vix probably thinks I'm an idiot for telling her to back off Nikki. It's just that cheating is a really bad thing in my eyes. I'll know I'll never do it"
"Oh we'll have to wait and see" Hector smirked. The bell rang and it looked like it was finally to make our way to our classes. At least I'd get away from Hector.

All the students made their way into my classroom and sat down. A new boy came up to me and asked me where he could sit.
"Oh your Justin, Mr Fitzgerald's son?" I asked. I had heard Vaughn talking about him in the staff room earlier on. I hoped that he wouldn't be another trouble maker.
"Yes I am" said Justin "So where should I sit?" I pointed at the seat by Darren and the boy sat next to him.
"He looks so gay!" Darren shouted out, in between the laughs. The reason the students were calling Justin gay was probably because of his hairstyle, it was more styled then most boys, but I knew that wasn't something that made a person gay, teenagers were just so immature these days. Justin frowned at Darren then looked back at his book. The class began their work after I had told them what to do. I was more than glad that they were behaving.
"Right everyone" I announced "I need to grab something from the staff room. I'll be back in a few minutes so don't misbehave and carry on working" I grabbed my handbag as I didn't want any of the kids taking things from it and made my way to the toilet.

Luckily for me, there were no students or other staff member in the toilets. I looked in the mirror and thought about what Simon even saw in me in the first place. He was probably one of the only humans in this world who didn't think I was a ignorant, annoying ginger. I then thought about Hector, I didn't think that he could see anything in me. I was sure he was joking about but at the same time I actually thought he had feelings for me. I was just so confused. I opened my handbag and spotted my tranquilizers, I had put them back in my bag earlier at home. I didn't even know why I made the move. When I looked at my tranquilizers, I remembered the day when the students were making fun of me, when I took the tablets and how angry Simon was at me. He forgave me after but I always had a feeling that he just felt sorry for me. I didn't take any tranquilizer tablets and stuffed the packet right into the bottom of my handbag. I decided to just stop thinking about the bad times and make my way back to my unsupervised class.

A/N: Thanks for reading the first chapter. I won't include the new characters (Vaughn, Justin and Allie) too much because I do not know much about them as the episodes with them haven't aired yet. Please leave a review, it would be very appreciated x :)
