Goten was just standing, leaning againts the wall beside the school’s gate. He looked every school girls coming out who passed in front of him. Sometimes he wondered who made all these girls to wear short skirts! Hmm…short skirts…. ..loosing socks… Goten smiled widely, imagining he was sorrounded by young beautiful teenage girls….

His imaginary thoughts were interrupted by a couple of guys passing by.

“They’ve done it again!” the first guy started. “That’s the 3rd substitute teacher this week!”
“Nobody can control class 2-7!” The other guy said.

Goten just stared at the 2 boys walked by. Substitute teacher? Class 2-7? He wondered what happened in that school today….
 

“Goten-kun!!”
 

 Goten eyes brightened as he heard the familiar voice called his name. He turned around and he just about time to open his arm before Bra jumped  and hugged him tightly. Goten blushed when he realized some other students who were passing by looking at them weirdly. He pulled himself away and looked down at Bra, smiling.

Bra smiled back at him, but slowly it faded away.

“Eh? B-chan, what’s wrong?” Goten blinked.

Bra shooked her head and gave him a small smile. “Nothing Goten-kun…” she hugged his arm and started to walk. “Come on…. Let’s go home..”

Goten still has the quizzical look on his face. "Funny…B-chan never acts like this before…” he thought, but decided to care about it later. Both of them silently walked side by side enjoying the early Autumn season…
 

*************
 

“Another substitute teacher quit again today…” Bra sighed, finally breaking the silence. “That’s the 3rd  time this week!”

Goten looked at the blue-haired girl beside him. It’s the same thing he heard from those two guys he met earlier!

“Let me guess…” Goten said. “Does it have anything to do with class 2-7?”
Bra looked up at him in surprised. “But h-how--- ?”
“Some guys were just talking about it while I was waiting for you.” He explained. “But what with this substitute teacher?”

Bra didn’t say anything for a while, then, ”I dunno, Goten-kun…” she sighed. “Ever since Anzai-sensei  was missing, non-of the 2-7 students wanted new teachers to replace him!”

“Anzai-sensei? Missing?”
“That’s what I heard. He used to be 2-7 class teacher.”
“oh…”
“Everybody in that class loved him.” She smiled. “He is like the nicest teacher in our school…”

  As they kept on walking, Goten just couldn’t stop looking at the young girl beside him who's still holding his hand. She who always seemed cheerful and excited everyday after school, became suddenly quiet. Very unusual. It must be the incident at school which Goten didn’t really know about.

  Goten pulled her closer and put his hand around her waist. He kissed her head then he smiled down. “I’m hungry. Wanna get something to eat?”

Bra stared at him then a smile formed across her face. She nodded. “Sure!”
 

****************
 

  Later on that evening, after dinner, Goten was in his room lying on his bed. He was tired….he closed his eyes…and about to sleep…and…

..his eyes flew open when he finally remembered he was desperately needed a job. He sat up, picked up the paper and looked up for some job vacancies.
 

His cell-phone beeped.
 

Must be Bra, he thought happily. “Hey…” he answered, lying back on his bed.
 

“Goten.”
“Oh. Trunks it’s you.” he mumbled.

“Marron dumped me.”
“What?!” Goten sat up looking shocked.
“She..” he paused. “ she dumped me.”
“Why? Wh-What happened?”
“She ignored me, then she DUMPED me for a guy named ‘The CRAPiest!”

“What?” Goten laughed. “She’s still hooked up on that magazine?”
“And it’s all YOUR fault!”
“Huh? What DID I DO??”
“You took her shopping, you let her buy that STUPID thing and because of that damn magazine, she FORGOT OUR DINNER TONIGHT!”
“Ha? Bu-But? Sh-She---Wh-who----We?WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?”
“ARGH!!!” Trunks hung up.

Goten looked at his cell-phone. “He is so confused! That poor guy.” He put his phone down and continued on looking for job vacancies.

1 hour later, he couldn’t find anything. None of the available jobs caught his interests. He gave up and decided to get some sleep.

Goten put both of his hands behind his head and closed his eyes. Like always, he thought everything about the day…until Bra came to his mind. His lips twitched into a smile.

He couldn’t think of anything else but B-chan…B-chan…B-chan…B-chan…B-chan….B-chan….B-chan…..B-chan…..B-chan…..B-chan…..B-chan…..B-chan…B-chan…..High School….2-7…Anzai-teacher……substitute teacher……
 
 
 

….substitute teacher??
 
 
 
 

Goten’s eyes flew open. THAT’s IT!!! He can be  the new SUBSTITUTE TEACHER! He can teach, after hearing some lectures from Gohan ^_^”, he’s qualify enough, high education, good-looking, smart, … the substitute teacher spot is available, and above all, HE COULD STAY CLOSER TO BRA EVERYDAY!

Goten’s eyes shone in excitements! What day is tomorrow? Saturday! Yes! He will see the principle tomorrow and get an interview. Wait. All substitute teachers were chased out by the class of…BAH! Hell with Class 2-7! He’s going to take this job no matter what!! As long he’s employed, earn his own money, could meet his favorite B-chan everyday, THAT’s FINE WITH HIM!
 
 

He switched off the lights and went through night with a smile on his face.
 

**************

Monday morning…
 

 As every Monday morning, a 30 minutes assembly held in the school’s hall. Everyone got online and heard some announcements and other boring speeches. But this time…..
 

“I heard there’s a new substitute teacher coming today….” Merle, Bra’s friend said to her.
“Really? Oh, I feel sorry for him ….or her.”
“Yeah…”
 

“Fellow students,” the announcer said, “before we end our assembly for today, we would like to welcome our new substitute teacher who’s willing to-----“

The man with brown spiffy suit with a dark tie snatched the mic from the announcer and confidently stood in front of the whole students on the stage like a super star.

“Uh…Bra…isn’t that….” Merle pulled Bra’s skirt.
“Huh? What?” She looked over at the man who’s standing on the stage. “That is…”
 

“Dead bored in school?” he said with a style. “Worry no more cute girls, your great teacher is here to make schools FUN! I will make the  BEST! The GREATEST! Because I am…” he winked.
 

“Great Teacher Goten.”
 

All the students on floor cheered and applaud and some of them talked to each other. The teachers too whispered to each other because Goten was the weirdest substitute teacher they ever seen.

“Oh my god……. Bra, isn’t that your…” Merle gaped.

Bra’s eyes wide opened and her jaws dropped.

Somewhere at the back lines, Kaede glared at the familiar man who’s standing like he’s crazy on the stage. "Heh." He snorted.

 Goten blushed when they applaud him. They like me!! They REALLY like me!!! He cheered in his mind. He looked around for Bra but there were too many of them. So he just stood there waving at the other students who smiled and greeting at him warmly.
 

But among all, there was only one group Goten didn’t notice. A group of teenagers shooting cold glares at him. Cursing him under their breaths.  Goten was someone they really hated to see and have in this school.
 
 
 
 

Because they are, the students of class 2-7.
