"I'm sorry did you just say Professor Jones? As in the English Lit professor, the one that's been teaching here for 4 years?" She sits on the edge of her bed

"Yes.. that's the one. You know how yesterday evening I had detention in his classroom?" I say avoiding eye contact

"Oh my God! Was that just a cover up for you two so you guys can.." She begins saying

"No! Oh god no! Nothing happened between us until last night. At first him and I weren't even speaking to each other when I first got to his classroom. Then we started arguing, we finally calmed down and had a deep conversation about Tyler and everything that's going on. Then in the heat of the moment.. we kissed" I say slightly embarrassed

"So then why did you rush in here slamming the door shut? Did something else happen?" She stares at me shocked and excited

"At first no, we had to ride down the elevator together alone. First we didn't speak, then he brought up our moment and we kind of started arguing about it again. He told me to look at him dead in the eyes at tell him it didn't mean anything. But I couldn't.. I would've been lying to myself and him. After that little argument, we kissed again." I sigh laying down on my bed

"Holy shit Josie. I can't believe it. You and Professor Jones, I mean he is handsome as hell and you are beautiful. But what about you and Tyler? And you do know that Professor Jones has a girlfriend right?" she says

"Yes I know, he ended up telling me that after our kiss yesterday. And about Tyler and I, I don't know. If he were to ever find out I would be dead along with Professor Jones. I can't let him find out." I put my head in my hands

I hear Toni sigh as she stands up and sits next to me while I'm laying down. She grabs my wrist and looks at me.

"Sweetheart, it's not worth it. Professor Jones is in a relationship and you are too. Even though Tyler hurts you and everything. You and Professor Jones can get in serious trouble if you are caught. You can get expelled and he can get fired and arrested." She says sighing

"Fuck I know! But I don't know how to get over the kiss. Everything feels so different with Professor Jones. It feels more sincere and real." I sit up frustrated

"Jo, I know you probably feel that way. But it was only two kisses. You said that yesterday's kiss was just in the heat of the moment. It can't be that meaningful" She sighs

"Yes it was in the heat of the moment but it was meaningful. Fuck I can't shake this shit out of my head. I need to just go talk to him. I can't think straight right now" I say standing up and slipping on some sandals

I grab my phone and keys heading out the door shutting and locking it behind me. I rush out the dorm room building and quickly walk over to the building Professor Jones class is at. I go to press the elevator button but it's in use. Holy hell, I can't wait for this elevator to come back down. I run up a few flights of stairs and reach his classroom. I look around making sure no one is around. I open the door only to see a women at the bottom where his desk is.

"Oh hello, um I'm here to see Professor Jones. I'm one of his students. I need help with the uh homework assignment." I say slightly out of breath

"He will be right back sweetheart. He just went to go grab some things from his car. Come and sit down with me and wait." She smiles gesturing me to come down

"Alright sure. I've never seen you around, are you another Professor here?" I ask reaching the bottom row sitting down

"Oh no no, I'm his girlfriend. I work as a wedding dress designer in my own store. But him and I have lunch together everyday." She laughs sitting on his desk
