Professor Maximoff

Chapter 5 - Distraction

Mr Barnes: I was wandering if you wanted to come see a movie with me next week?

You head started to be feel dizzy. Your hands catch you from falling on the ground, but knocks over your books instead. The loud thud of the books caught both professor's attentions.

Mr Barnes: Oh my bad, sorry i was unaware you still had a student here.

y/n: oh don't mind me. I was actually on my way out.

You collect your things from off the floor and your desk, place them in your bag and walk past the both of them. Avoiding the gaze of your professor. Before you walk out the door you quickly look at Mr Barnes.

y/n: By the way, i think you two would make a cute couple. Enjoy your movie.

You give him your praise and leave. You can't believe you just encouraged another person to take out the women of your dreams.

This entire week could not have gone any slower. You hadn't left you're room since that day, apart from going to your classes. You wanted to drown your sorrows the best way you know how. Women and alcohol.  You honestly could not stand to look at her. The classes that she taught you, you would either arrive late or not arrive at all. You didn't know why you got so caught up over the fact the Mr Barnes had asked out Ms Maximoff. I mean yeah, you did have a moment after class that day, but that's what that was, a moment. All good things come to an end, only problem was that you two didn't have anything to begin with. This entire week you would see them walk each other to class, and Mr Barnes leaning over to Ms Maximoff's face to give her a quick peak on the cheek. You wanted to throw up in your mouth as well as scream into your  head off.

 You quickly run to the bathrooms and pull out a flask from you bag as well as a pack of cigarette's. You had quick smoking a long time ago, but today was an exception. You couldn't believe how far you've fallen over a girl you haven't even kissed yet. It feels like highschool all over again. Time has pasted since the bell for class had rang, and you didn't care.

You walk out of the bathroom half an hour later and walk into class. Everyone was dead silent as their eyes trailed you all the way until you had sat in your seat.

Ms Maximoff: Care to explain why you are late to my class for the 4th time this week.

y/n: Not really.

Ms Maximoff: Stay back after class.

You rolled your eyes and put your headphones on, resting your head on your desk. You could feel your head spin coming. You didnt have a care in the world about this lesson so you driften in your own world, until you were interrupted. You raise your head to someone tapping your shoulder.

Carol: Hey are you ok?

y/n: Im fine, just a bit light headed, thats all.

Carol: Oh, hang on.

She hands you some medicine and her bottle of water. You give her a smile and swallow the medicine. Carol sits there with a smile on her face, watching you drink her water.

Carol: You feeling ok?

y/n: Much better thanks.

Carol: Hey i was thinking me and you can go out this weekend, if you not too busy.

You sit there for a minute, processing what was happening. You look at Ms Maximoff and then back at Carol, you could tell she was listening.

Carol: Nevermind it was a stupid idea, forget about it.

You grab her hand and look at her. 

y/n: its not a stupid idea. I would love to. Have any ideas in mind?

A smile dressed her face.

Carol: Movies maybe?

y/n: Sound like a plan.

Carol: Great, here's my number, ill txt you when to meet up.

She turns your hand over and writes her number on it.

You both smiled at each other before facing the front. You needed to get out of your room and what better way than to hang out with some friends.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The bell has rung and you and Carol say your goodbyes. You wait for everyone to leave before you approach the professor. The smile you once had turned into a worried looked, but you hid it.

y/n: what did you wanna talk about, I have places to be.

Ms Maximoff: First off i don't like the attitude, second what has gotten into you, im getting worried.

y/n: Is this what this is about? Im leaving.

Just as your about to open the door she grabs your arm and pulls you back to her, slaming you into the desk.

y/n: What the hell was that for.

Ms Maximoff: Tell me what's wrong, please. Im here for you.

She says with pleading eyes. You diverted you look away from her. Why did she care so much? You thought to yourself. You could feel your heart racing at how close you two were, but this was not the time nor place to be feeling like this. She could feel you tense up so she lets go of your arm and steps back.

y/n:I wanna know something.

You say as you rub your wrist. she nodded.

y/n: How was your date with him. 

You didn't think in the slightest what you were saying until you said it. Maybe you shouldn't have had that bit of alcohol. 

Ms Maximoff: Me and Mr Barnes affairs are none of your business.

y/n: Really none of my business. I should have known you were playing with my feelings. God im so stupid. Stupid to believing the moment that we had the other day was actually something. 

Tears begin to form. You had never felt this way about anyone before. You cover your eyes in shame. You guys were nothing to begin with, so why are you so hurt?

Ms Maximoff: y/n i.....

Mr Barnes: Hey i got us some food from the cafeteria... Oh is everything ok.

y/n: Yep everything is fine, excuse me i have places i need to be.
