I'm dying every day [Comprehensive British and American]

A few days before Christmas, Bernice passed by the female dormitory floor on her way back to her room, and heard some lively voices faintly. She looked curiously and found that the door of one of the rooms was not closed, and the sound came from this It came from the room.

Several girls sat on the bed and formed a circle, discussing something excitedly.

"Ah, Teacher Garcia!" Li Qianhuan noticed Bernice outside the door, jumped out of bed and walked towards her.

"What rally are you having?" she asked, withdrawing her prying gaze.

"Well, we are actually discussing the prom." Li Qianhuan suddenly became a little embarrassed, she moved away, and let Wanda, Katie, Anna, and Storm greet Bernice inside, To Bernice's surprise, she didn't expect that even Jean Gray was here. It seemed that she could finally integrate into everyone well, which made her very gratified as a teacher.

Bernice didn't understand, so: "What's there to discuss? Isn't it just that everyone gathers to eat, dance and exchange gifts?"

"Of course not only." Li Qianhuan suddenly took Bernice's hand and said with great interest, "By the way, teacher, do you want to come with me too?"

Although Bernice hadn't answered yet, Li Qianhuan had already taken her by the hand and brought her inside. Thinking that he didn't have anything to do today anyway, he didn't refuse and joined this "small circle".

If it was any other teacher, she would never do this, but Bernice has long regarded her as a friend in their hearts.

Bernice also sat on the bed with them, and as soon as her buttocks touched the sheets, she heard Katie say, "We were just talking about which boy invited us to the prom."

Bernice raised her eyes without any response: "Really? Then who invited you?"

Wanda shared with a little helplessness: "It's Pietro, he said he doesn't want to see me dancing with other boys."

Hey, Pietro, your sister is a little serious.

With a suspicious blush on Anna's face, she said, "Ahem, it's Bobby..."

This is no surprise, from the small movements in class, you can see that there is something between them, besides, the little naughty and the iceman are lovers in the movie.

Katie said, "I'm talking about Kurt."

What?Was it the Kurt she knew?The nightcrawler who disappears when he's shy?

Storm said, "I wasn't invited, but I did ask Warren to be my partner."

Wait, something must have happened.

At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Qin who had been silent all this time. She lowered her head and said in a mosquito-like voice: "I was not invited either..."

Everyone comforted her and said, "Maybe the boys are just afraid to open their mouths. After all, everyone thought you were not easy to get close to."

"Yes, I have heard them discussing that you are cute in private more than once."

Qin didn't look so depressed: "Yeah, yeah..."

"What about you, teacher?"

Bernice answered truthfully, with a look of indifference: "Me neither."

Anna looked very surprised. "What? You weren't invited?"

"Which student would dare to invite me?" Presumably they couldn't muster up the courage to invite their gentle and considerate beautiful teacher to the prom together.

Katie lowered her voice and whispered, "It may not belong to students...such as the principal."

"Charles? He didn't ask me."

Katie and Li Qianhuan looked at each other indiscriminately, and saw unwillingness in each other's eyes. Professor, if you are so unwilling to make progress, the teacher will really be snatched away by Magneto!It's too disappointing to be robbed of my most beloved woman by a good friend!

They followed Bernice and Magneto on a date and saw them kissing in the car. They never dared to tell Charles, fearing that he would not be able to bear the blow.

Under Katie's encouraging eyes, Li Qianhuan said, "Well, ahem, who would you like to be invited? I mean, what type of man do you like?"

"Me?" Bernice didn't realize that she was being talked about, so she answered after thinking about it, "It must be rich."

"..." It's so realistic.

... No, isn't the professor rich!

Hope was rekindled in the eyes of Li Qianhuan and Katie. In terms of money, the professor has an advantage over Magneto!

The latter didn’t have that kind of academic qualifications, and secondly, he didn’t teach that kind of real estate. Thinking about teaching him like this, he is still very competitive!

Qin hugged her knees and watched everyone giggling and laughing, her face could not hide her loneliness, but everyone was chatting enthusiastically and did not notice her expression.

Bernice suddenly said to her: "Ah, since neither of us have been invited, then I'll be your dance partner."

Everyone else showed surprised eyes, especially Qin, she opened her mouth with disbelief written all over her face, "Me?!"

Bernice nodded indifferently and said, "There is no rule that girls can only dance with boys, but you are taller than me, so I might feel wronged for you to dance male step."

Seeing Bernice's initiative to invite, Anna asked curiously, "Teacher, can you dance?"

Bernice said bluntly, "No."

But Qin was even happier, showing a smile like finding a bosom friend, "I, I won't..."

Everyone: "..."

……

After chatting for about half an hour, Bernice left first, leaving space for the girls.

They were all underage or just-adult girls, and Bernice, who had been an adult for a long time, mixed in and talked to them about girly topics, which was a bit too boring for her.

She met Hank in the corridor, and when she was about to ask him what he was doing on the floor of the girls' dormitory, the other party said pleasantly: "Great, I originally planned to go to you after I finished looking for girls, so it turns out You are here too."

"what's up?"

He raised the box in his hand and shook it, "It's like this. This year, the students plan to hold an anonymous gift exchange session. The recipient will be determined by drawing lots, but the other party will not know who sent it, and we will You won't know that your gift is for you."

Bernice snorted, complaining in her heart that it was really troublesome, "As for the gift, what is the approximate price?"

"No limit." Hank replied, thinking of Bernice's character, he immediately added uneasy, "But you can't send some strange things, you know what I mean?"

Bernice rolled her eyes, "How can there be so many rules?"

Hank handed out the box, "Okay, please draw a lottery."

Bernice reached into the box, casually grabbed a small note, and opened it for a look.

She folded the paper again and put it away, "Well, I know who I'm going to give the gift to."

……

Bernice drove out of the city to pick out gifts that night. In fact, she knew what she was going to give the moment she saw the name on the note, so her goal when she came to the department store was very obvious, and she had no distractions towards the target area. advance.

"Huh? Teacher Garcia?"

There was a surprised call from the side, and Bernice turned to find that not far away were the Maximov brothers and sisters pushing a cart.

Princeton is too small, how can I meet acquaintances every time I go out.

She nodded to the two: "Call me Bernice outside of school."

Wanda pushed the trolley forward and said with a smile, "We are picking out gifts, but we have been thinking about it for a long time and have no idea."

Bernice glanced at the trolley, it was full of snacks, no wonder she couldn't pick a gift.

"Are you here to buy gifts too? Who are you going to give gifts to? Is it me?" Pietro threw several questions to Bernice in a row, but she only answered one of them: "Yes."

... So is he also here to buy a gift, or is he going to give him a gift?Or both?

Just as Pietro was about to press on, he saw Bernice reaching for a bottle of... hair tonic?

...Who needs such a thing as hair tonic? !

……

On Christmas day, it was so cold that Bernice wanted to sleep straight away. Even if it wasn't snowing, she still wanted to stay in bed, but she promised Jean that she would go to the dance with her, so she had to get up and get ready.

Although the weather was cold, it did not diminish the enthusiasm of the students. It would be better to say that their enthusiasm almost melted the big ice sculpture Christmas tree (it has been preserved intact until now, it is hard to imagine how Bobby has been treated).

After changing her clothes and putting on makeup, Bernice came to Qin's room, knocked on the door, and heard a rush of footsteps from the other side of the door. The next second the door opened in front of her, and Qin didn't even look at it. Knowing the people outside, he said, "I'm sorry, my hair hasn't..."

She couldn't continue speaking halfway through, or she was amazed by the people outside the door.

Bernice had a big wavy perm for a rare occasion. Her elastic blond hair was scattered on her shoulders, exuding a soft light. Because she was wearing a one-shoulder black knee-length dress, the gap between the hair on the shoulders The exposed snow-white skin can be seen underneath, which looks flimsy.

From going to class with light make-up at the beginning, and finally going to the battle without makeup because of laziness, Bernice, who sometimes didn’t even comb her hair, put on full makeup today. Qin, who is used to her plain makeup, was greatly criticized shock.

After a long while, Qin finally mustered up the courage and said in one breath: "You look beautiful."

Bernice took her compliment as a matter of course, and replied, "Thank you, you look good too."

Qin is wearing a water-blue long skirt, because she is tall and slim, wearing this kind of skirt looks more graceful.

With the help of Bernice, Qin quickly fixed her hair, and the two came to the venue together.

The hall was temporarily arranged as a dance venue, and long tables filled with various food and drinks surrounded a square dance floor. Although the time had not yet arrived, there were already many students who arrived early chatting and eating.

At the base of the Christmas tree were piles of colorful gift boxes that were ready to be given away, and Bernice put the boxes with the recipients' names on them.

All of Bernice's acquaintances gathered together. She was surrounded by students, receiving all kinds of compliments, and some people asked for a group photo. The highly praised Bernice happily agreed without thinking.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, the dance finally started. Under the announcement of Hank, the master of ceremonies, everyone rushed under the Christmas tree to look for the gift box with their names written on it.

Bernice easily found the box with her name written on it. It was only the size of a palm, but it was beautifully packaged. The pink ribbon was folded into the shape of a rose. It seemed that the gift giver had spent a lot of effort, but She didn't intend to take it apart immediately, but put it away first.

Hank saw Charles' name when he was looking for his gift, so he took it away and gave it to Charles himself.

Charles thanked him, weighed it, it was quite heavy, but did not make any further moves, Hank unwrapped the gift on the spot, it was a khaki scarf, and a small note was attached, which said: I hope you can use it !

Hank showed a smile, which should have been sent by a thoughtful student, but his warmth was successfully conveyed anyway.

He looked at Charles and asked, "Aren't you going to tear it down?"

Charles, who originally planned to go back and open the presents, changed his mind after seeing Hank's presents. To be honest, he was looking forward to receiving the gifts carefully prepared by the students, so he removed the outer wrapping paper.

The packaging of the box is very simple, it might be better to say that the gift was wrapped in wrapping paper very casually, and in some places the box inside was exposed without wrapping, but Charles didn't mind, maybe it was a male student, It is not surprising that you are not good at these manual tasks, but what is more important is what is inside.

If he also received a scarf, he would like it. Students can't afford too expensive gifts, and he doesn't lack those things. The most important thing is the gift giver's heart.

Charles, full of anticipation, opened the box and took out... a bottle of liquid inside.

Hank froze, "This is..."

Hair tonic?

"Do you have hair loss troubles? XX brand hair tonic is a good helper for middle-aged men who are in crisis of hair loss! It helps you regain your confidence. 99% of users have used it and said it is good!"

It says so.

Charles, who was full of anticipation, said, "..."

If he finds out which student's prank, next semester's paper is waiting to receive a D :)
