Lisa slipped the pins into her hair to hold the tight bun in place before looking into the mirror to check her appearance one last time before heading out the door. She sighed to herself as she was starting another summer semester instead of taking time off for a long well deserved vacation. She had no life except the classroom and that had even become boring after ten years of teaching advance calculus. I mean nerds more nerds and nothing but nerds! The bright spot is that during the summer she has younger students and they at least don't know it all yet!
Lisa was an attractive woman for her age, she still had a great figure which she kept covered in very modest suits which kept the little critters from starring holes in her while she lectured. A love life had been pretty much non existent since husband had walked out two years ago and if it wasn't for her bob she would have exploded months ago. I mean lets face it she teaches twenty something's and some of the guys are fucking hot but most are nerds with more brains than hormones.
She walked into her classroom taking a quick look around to see what she had in store and was pleasantly surprised to see mostly girls standing around giggling about something. There were the normal nerdy guys sitting and typing on their laptops or PDA's.
"Please take a seat! This Advanced Calculus and if your not here for that please leave now!" She said with a firm voice to make sure they all heard.
She turned to her desk picking up the class roster that was placed there by her assistant. Without looking she started calling the names listening for the acknowledgement from the student. She turned back towards the class to see a very smartly dressed young man standing right in front of her holding out a piece of paper. She looked him up and down thinking to herself he is a keeper before taking the paper looking it over and pointing to the seats. The young man turned and walked away almost like he had been punished, shoulder slouching and a slow walk of someone with little or no confidence.
"Today you will do the calculation on the board and turn it in at the end of class, do not worry if you don't finish it your not suppose to just do as much as you can so I know where everyone is knowledge wise." She told them pointing to a blank board.
"What the hell! Ok give me a minute to put it there."
She quickly wrote the problem down and then sat down at her desk. She took the time to look each student over as she did each year to pick the ones she knew wouldn't make it through the semester or the ones that would beg for attention. Her eyes looked the room over from one to another until she reached Stan. Stan was the kid that handed her the paper, he was at the most twenty with well groomed blonde hair a neatly pressed shirt which he filled out quite well she thought and a very meek manner. She couldn't take her eyes off this young man for some reason, was it the shy almost recluse mannerism he displayed or the fact he was a doll in sheep's clothing. "OK time is up please bring your work to my desk and then your free to go. I will grade them and tomorrow I want you to do the first five pages of the text book with your view of how each problem was solved type written."
Each student dropped their paper and left except Stan who stood there looking at her with his face lowered and fidgeting with his PDA. He had to be the shyest student she had ever had she thought waiting for him to speak.
"Stan is there something you want to say?" She said in her teacher voice.
"Uh yes I was wondering if you could look at my paper now?" He said with his eyes still lowered.
"Hum I guess but this is not the way I work for your information." She said in a harsher voice.
She peered at the two pages of numbers and symbols then at the solution which was correct. She looked up at Stan with a smile.
"Very nice work I see your going to be a star student. Stan may I ask you something?" She said in her mothering voice.
