Martin leant his elbow on the open window of this hot day and his hand on his eyes as he took his sunglasses off to wipe his tears from laughing.
Zoe put her hand on his back giggling, "oh my god he's crying." She laughed, looking back at everyone.
"I'm a very wise, independent man." Insisted Martin, exhaling to try and cool himself off.
"Eh- wise?" Questioned Ryan,
"Piss off Ryan or I'll give you a detention!" Joked Martin, opening up the glove compartment and grabbing a handful of the red slips of paper.
"Wait have you actually got detentions?" Laughed Ryan.
"Mrs Watson insisted I brought them." Martin replied, setting them down and concentrating on driving.
"How are we supposed to get our parents to sign these?" Asked Ollie,
"I dunno. I don't think Bronagh thought that far ahead." Chuckled Martin. "I could probably give you all a detention, Ollie, you snogged someone, Jemma, you snogged someone, Cloda, you snogged someone... Ryan and Lucy.." everyone looked at them, "well they're the only two good people here."
Ryan and Lucy looked at each other, trying not to smile, but it wasn't working.
Ollie turned around on his seat and looked at Ryan with an anxious smile, "mate... you haven't have you..?"
Ryan looked the other way, "the weather is really nice isn't it?" He complimented, trying to change the topic,
"Oh my god!" Exclaimed Jemma,
"Since when?!" Called Cloda,
"Mr McCafferson you are officially my least favourite teacher." Said Ryan,
"What did I do?!" Laughed Martin,
"You just implied it!"
"I didn't know you kissed her!" Said Martin, "thought you just.. liked her."
Ryan sat back on his seat and looked at Lucy, laughing with her.
Martin looked in the rear-view mirror at everyone and sighed, "oh bless, all my little first years have grown up!" He said, putting his hand on his heart.
"Right so it's only been five days and we've all broken the rules. Great." Laughed Ollie, "so that's one detention each, what rule should we break next?"
"Well I assume we've all cursed, so there's another one." Added Martin.
"You swear more than you don't swear." Laughed Zoe,
"Oh fuck fuck goose they're old enough now." Muttered Martin before covering his mouth and biting his lip, "that was a bit bad wasn't it."
"That was awful!" Laughed Zoe, "that'll get you sacked!"
"Don't tell Mrs Watson!" Begged Martin.
"You had a four year old child with language like that?!" Exclaimed Cloda,
"I think it's the fact that I haven't really sworn in five years and now it's just spilling out of me."
"One of your dirty habits." Laughed Zoe,
"My only dirty habit."
"-Apart from buying £9000 guitars and smoking." Added Zoë,
"I don't smoke."
"Eh, yes you do?" Argued Zoe,
"W-when have you ever seen me smoke?" Asked Martin,
"Yesterday, when you collapsed. We found you on the ground, breath stank of tobacco and there was a cigarette still smoking on the ground beside you. Coincidence?" Zoe looked at Martin with smug.
"Okay.. gods sake." Sighed Martin, "I saw someone I knew from uni and he offered me one and it felt polite I guess."
"When has smoking ever been polite?" Asked Zoë,
"Sorry." Apologised Martin, shrinking, "Now I'm the one getting the detention."
"Are you addicted?" Asked Zoë,
"No. No! That's the first I've had in years. Honestly. I don't even like them.. they're all tar-y and.. have I justified it enough?"
"Yeah you're alright." Smiled Zoe.
Martin exhaled with relief, as Zoë started to read through some texts, her expression changing significantly as Martin said, "Whoah I thought I was about to be dumped."
"No, I'm not like your ex." Said Zoe.
Martins smile faded immediately into a look of almost disgust, but he hid it from her, saying nothing. "Can we pull over at that shop, need to get some stuff." Said Zoe, pointing at a garage.
"Yeh sure." Said Martin, still in disbelief from what she had just said. The others were silent too.
After Zoe walked out of the van and into the shop Martin turned around to the others with the same disgusted face. "What's up with her?" He asked,
"What the hell brought her to say that to you?" Asked Ollie,
"Is something wrong with her?" Asked Cloda,
"She was absolutely fine until she made that comment." Said Ryan, "that was just horrible."
"Should I go in and speak to her?" Asked Martin,
"Maybe she's pregnant." Suggested Ollie, smirking,
"She's not pregnant." Said Martin, taking out the keys and opening up the door, "I'll be back in a second."

After Martin left everyone turned to face each other.
"I think she just really fancies him." Said Cloda,
"-and she's a bit jealous of his ex." Added Lucy,
"Why would she be jealous of his ex wife- she's dead." Asked Jemma,
"Well yesterday he was having a big moment for his wife, that's why he walked out." Said Lucy.
"Yeah, he's starting to realise that he really did love his wife. But he really likes Miss Flynn at the same time.. I think she's realising that all this love he's giving her is really just him coming to terms with Emily's death." Said Ollie.
"Jeez Ollie that was deep." Commented Ryan,
"Well I'm a very romantic man- look, I've got myself a lady friend!" Ollie pointed to Jemma.
"So have I as a matter of fact!" Added Ryan, pointing to Lucy.
"Awk I'm all alone!" Moaned Cloda.
"Ollie go kiss her and make her happy." Ordered Jemma, smiling. Ollie kissed Cloda's cheeks, "love you Cloda!" He told her, jokingly.
"Now you've gotta kiss your lady friend so she doesn't get all jealous." Said Cloda to Ollie, grinning.
"Oh not in front of you guys!" Ollie sat down beside Jemma before looking over to Ryan.
"I'll do it if you do." Said Ryan, winking at him.
Ollie shook his hand, "old friend what have we become?" Laughed Ollie before facing Jemma and putting his hand on her face before kissing her. Lucy and Ryan did the same, it was at this point where Martin and Zoe opened up the doors again.
"Have we interrupted something?" Asked Martin, seeing four of his pupils kissing.
"I've never been this uncomfortable in my life." Said Cloda.
Everyone immediately split up and faced Martin.
"You finished?" Asked Martin, sitting back down on the seat.
They nodded, too embarrassed to speak.
Martin laughed before looking to Zoe, "still young enough to fit with the trend right?" He asked before leaning over and kissing Zoe on the lips, closing his eyes before pulling away.
"Right you've just passed the boundary on every level." Said Ryan, his eyes wide.
"Amen." Added Zoë.
"You two.. good?" Asked Jemma in hope.
Martin and Zoe looked at each other and nodded, but the others knew it wasn't perfect.
