Rusty Barker is a gruff, no-nonsense guy, but someone who cares more about people than he lets on. The story takes place during the spring of 2005, a few months before he retires. The assistant principal asks him to chaperone the prom when another chaperone drops out. Rusty had never chaperoned anything before. The first "painful surprise" is how loud the music is, which he's not prepared for. Later, Rusty hurts his neck -- not seriously -- when he gets roped into dancing. It's basically a slice-of-life kind of story, with the funny conversations Rusty has with students and with other faculty members driving the action. [more]

"Then You Are Here!" Said A Stern, Gruff Voice, Addressing A Pale, Sickly-Looking Youth, Whose Frame Trembled And Whose Lip Quivered As He Approached One Who Sat At The Side Of A Low Pine Table;--It Was His Master, A Man Of About Forty, Of Athletic Form, And Of Power Sufficient To Crush The Feeble Youth. "Well," He Continued, "If You Are Sure That You Gave It To Him, Go To Bed; But Mind You, Whisper-Breathe Not The Secret To A Living Soul, On Peril Of Your Life! You May Evade My Grasp, But Like Blood I Will Track You Through Life, And Add A Bitter To Your Every Cup Of Sweet." [more]
