"Where should we hide?" Isabelle asks.
The two of them look around for somewhere safe and out of reach. The see a few open boxes but that isn't good enough. Isabelle stomach drops as she hears more kids enter the classroom.
"Over here," Lisa says dragging her.
Lisa drags Isabelle to the desk draw, it has been left open slightly so Lisa and Isabelle do their best to pry it open. They get it open far enough for them to get inside and away from anyone. Isabelle helps Lisa climb up the side of the draw, she has her guard up constantly looking around. As soon as Lisa gets inside Isabelle climbs up the draw and dives like it's nothing. She lands with a thud and crawls over to the side of the draw out of the light and hugs her knees. Lisa crawls over to Ms Shade and sits next to her.
"Are you okay Ms Shade?" Lisa asks.
"Yeah, I'm fine," She says with a fake smile. "Just in a bit of shock that's all."
Lisa wraps her arms around Ms Shade to help comfort her. Ms Shade rests her head on Lisa's shoulder and let's a few tears roll down her cheeks. As more kids enter the classroom Lisa and Isabelle can hear every single one of them. Lisa is surprised to hear another teacher walk in and take over for Ms Shade on such short notice.
"How are you doing sweetie?" Ms Shade asks.
"Yeah fine." Lisa smiles. "I don't think I'm in as big of shock as you."
"Sorry about that," Isabelle apologises.
"Don't be." Lisa says.
"How come you're not as freaked out as me?" Isabelle asks.
"Um, well," Lisa says turning red. "I don't want to say, it's too embarrassing."
"It's only us here," Isabelle smiles. "I won't tell anyone and I promise I won't judge."
"Well," Lisa sighs. "I've always wanted to be this small."
"Oh," Isabelle smiles.
"You promised you wouldn't judge." Lisa says getting embarrassed.
"I'm not judging," Isabelle smiles. "I find that to be quite cool, being small isn't something I've always wanted but I have had the occasional thought every now and then about what it would be like."
"Thanks for not judging Ms Shade." Lisa smiles.
"You're welcome sweetie," Isabelle smiles. "You wanting to be shrunk is the most normal thing that has happened to me today."
"Fair point." Lisa giggles. "Would it make it weirder if I said that I'm glad I shrunk with you?"
"No it wouldn't," Isabelle smiles. "It would make it quite sweet. I'm glad I shrunk with you too."
"Thanks." Lisa smiles. "Ms Shade, can I ask you something?"
"Sure," She smiles.
"Have you ever been friends with a student?" Lisa asks. "I know that you talk to a lot of students before and after class but would you ever consider them friends?"
"That's a tough question," Isabelle smiles. "I would in a way yes, I have a lot of people I talk to and see a lot that I would consider friends but the ones I see quite a lot, trust more and talk about more meaningful things with would be close friends."
"Wow," Lisa smiles. "That's quite deep."
"I didn't mean to," Isabelle smiles. "I just like to have all sorts of friendships, even though I would prefer to have close friends than casual I still do love and adore all kinds of friendships I have. What about you?"
"I have all sorts of friends as well." Lisa giggles. "Just as complicated and deep as you."
"Then how many do you have?" Isabelle smiles.
"Not much really," Lisa sighs. "I don't have that many friends."
"There's noting wrong with that." Isabelle smiles. "As long as you have at lest one person in your life who loves and care about you that's all that matters."
"Yeah," Lisa smiles. "I guess you're right."
"Would you consider me a friend?" Isabelle asks. "Its understandable if you don't. I won't get upset."
"Since I talk to you quite a lot and you have helped me with so much I would yeah," Lisa smiles. "As you would put I a close friend."
"Thanks sweetie," Isabelle smiles giving Lisa a big hug. "That means a lot."
"Would you consider me a friend?" Lisa asks.
"Yeah I would." Isabelle smiles.
"You're just saying that because I said you're mine." Lisa giggles.
"No I'm not," Isabelle smiles. "I think I've spent more time with you than other students so yes, I would consider you my friend."
"Thanks," Lisa smiles.
"Can I ask why you would bring this up?" Isabelle asks. "I'm not offended or hurt by this is, it's just a strange thing to bring up."
"Well if we are stuck like this it'll be nice to be with friend." Lisa smiles.
"Fair point." Isabelle smiles.
"Not only that but, well," Lisa stops and chooses her words carefully. "I haven't been exactly happy for a while and you're someone I have talked to so much, I love spending time with you and I want you to be more than just a teacher to me."
"Thanks sweetie," Isabelle gives Lisa a hug and a few tears roll down her cheeks. "Now you've gone and made me cry."
"Sorry," Lisa says.
"It's okay," Isabelle smiles as she wipes a few tears from her cheeks. "I can be a wreak it times. Do you want to talk about it?"
"Not really," Lisa says. "I sort of do but now's not the best time as we need to figure out how to get back to normal."
"When you do don't hesitate to tell me." Isabelle smiles.
"Will do." Lisa smiles.
Lisa wraps her arms around Isabelle, Isabelle hugs her back with a smile. Lisa holds her tight as a few tears roll down her cheeks. Isabelle holds Lisa tight as she can hear her crying. She places a hand on Lisa's back and rubs it.
"Thanks Ms Shade." Lisa says as she breaks the hug.
"For what?" She asks.
"Thanks for being there for me." Lisa smiles. "And thanks for being you."
"You're welcome sweetie." Isabelle smiles.
Isabelle kisses Lisa's forehead and the two hug again. Lisa can't help at smile at her forehead kiss. While it was brief it did feel nice.
"So what do we do now?" Isabelle asks.
Lisa responds with...
