- AROUSAL -

My cheeks still had their rosy color when I woke up, my legs tightening around themselves while my chest heaved. The sweat dripped down my spine and I cowered, hiding my face into my knees before sighing quietly. My face was fiery and I could feel my vagina throbbing. This was the third in the past week I was waking up from an overly vivid dream, I never seemed to remember in the morning or after my bath though.

I got up from my bed, staring at the digital clock and watching Ryth turn to her side before opening her mouth to snore, a snort escaped my mouth as soon as I did and I hoped she didn't wake up from the sound of it. I took my towel along with me as I headed into the bathroom, still feeling the region between my thighs dripping and throbbing. I leaned against the wall after I stripped myself of my clothes.

"What is happening to me?" I asked, rubbing my thighs together to soothe ache before groaning when it only got worse.

My hands turned on the shower and I stood under the pelts of the cold water hoping it would calm my hot body and cool the thoughts off my mind. After my bath, I walked out of the bathroom, not failing to eye the showerhead greedily as I wondered what the girls were talking about. I blamed myself for missing out on whatever it was they were talking about.

The sun had risen by the time I was done and I watched Ryth as she adjusted her top and yawned before stretching and bending all the way to the back which made me roll my eyes.

"Show off." I scowled as I made my way to my closet to pick out my clothes for the day.

Ryth only smiled at me cheekily before straightening up, "Good morning Theresa."

"Morning."

She walked up to me, her curious eyes staring at my towel before she sighed, "Not even your towel shows your body shape. When will you let me see nau?"

I laughed at her pitiful face before throwing my sweater over my head, "Never."

She walked out after hissing loudly and the sound of the shower had me releasing the breath I didn't know I was holding. Even after my bath, I felt dirty. I felt different, was this world actually starting to influence me?

I quickly threw on my skirt and wore my shoes before picking up my bag, "Bye, I have classes."

"Okay!" She yelled back as she hummed.

The walk to the hall was laboring considering I still remembered the dream for some reason. Normally, I'd have forgotten, why not today? Remembering it made my body hot and I didn't like it, it made me uncomfortable.

Getting into the class, I noticed we were just two that had arrived while our teacher looked up briefly before nodding his head at me. I moved to a seat far from the other students and plopped myself on it. I laid my head on the desk and turned in the direction where the other student couldn't see. Each time I closed my eyes though, it was right there, right behind my eyes almost like a movie that kept replaying. I groaned silently and stomped my feet, angry at myself and my mind.

The sound of a body sitting beside mine made me lift my head and I saw him there. My cheeks started heating up again and I throbbed, everywhere. I couldn't hear a word he said as I stared. The more I stared, the more I cursed the spirit that had possessed me. I knew I had read about what I was feeling somewhere but I couldn't tell what had triggered it.

Arousal.

It was something that I had gone out of my way to read on after the first throbs my vagina had had, my mother wasn't one to explain such. We were never taught how our parents had us, they said we were given to them by the Almighty, I remember asking my mother how and she had scolded me for being too inquisitive for my own good.

Now though, I could feel the liquid trickling between my thighs as I squeezed them together, still staring at his lips that hadn't stopped moving. I could see what had happened in my dream replaying before my eyes, and I bit my lip unconsciously.

Then he stopped.

"Theresa?" He called, his finger tapping on my nose, "You good in there?"

"Uh, yeah."

"Did you hear what I said?" He smirked knowingly and I hid my face.

"No," I answered honestly.

"What were you thinking about?" My cheeks flared up even more and I looked down at my knees shakily knocking against each other.

"I-"

"Class! Good morning." The teacher's loud voice said, "I see some of you came late, as expected."

No one said a word and I looked around, seeing that most of the empty seats had been filled. I mentally slapped myself for being so distracted. So what if I was aroused? I had to be a better woman and learn how to restrain myself from carrying out such embarrassing acts.

"Only one person hasn't brought out their topic. I mentioned her on the platform but it seems she isn't even on it. Theresa." I heard my name and my feet pushed me up.

His eyes still searched around before they landed on me and he leaned further against his desk and crossed his legs.

"Yes, sir?"

"You haven't provided your topic." He said, his arms crossing over his chest, "It has been two weeks now and the deadline is up. You are off the experiment."

A couple of gasps, as well as whispers, filled the room and I just gaped at the man like a fish out of breath. Why had I refused to carry out the experiment? I didn't know any hushed topic and Ryth had brushed me off when I asked her. I didn't even have any friends to ask asides from her.

"You may excuse us."

With the last pieces of my shattered dignity, I carried my bag.

"Hey." He whispered as he slipped a piece of paper into my palm. "Wait for me at the park."

Without giving it much thought, I nodded. The eyes of everyone following my movements and I nearly slipped before standing upright and walking out.
