Teasing Miss Bullock (TeacherxStudent/gxg)

| Chapter 13: pessimism

I just arrived from the little escaped Tally had dragged me from. My shoulder hurts and my knuckles bleed when I accidentally hit a stranger while we're running like a headless chicken!

Entering the flat made me exhale, and when I inhale, a delicious aroma evaded my sense of smell, I follow the smell which leads me to the kitchen and found Miss Bullock cooking, she's still in her professional clothes "the dinner will be ready" she announce and turn to me as if she Sense me from a mile, "Smell delicious," I look at the pan and saw a yummy sight, not that her upper buttons are open enough to reveal her cleavage but... the food!

I felt her walk past so close behind me when she walk out and disappear so sudden "keep a look at the food, I'll get something for a while" she said as I nod... Hearing her pestering about some things inside the bedroom I let myself wonder to the things around us.

After a while she came back with a towel, alcohol, and betadine, I raised my brows to her as she grabbed a chair and hold my both upper arms gently and made me sit on it, "yep" I rolled my eyes as she then positioned a chair in front of me, she sat in front of me and gave me a sheepish look "may I have your hand?" She asked as I furrow my brows "why? I'm not getting engaged, am I?" I joke as she ignore my attempt to lighten the heavy air surrounding us and softly have my hand on her lap, my heart flutter at the action as my hand instinctively grasp her legs, I heard her breath hitch before dismissing the contact, she then slowly unclasp the band on my knuckles, carefully to not make me feel pain until my wound come in sight and her face shows concern

"Vellie, You're bleeding, I'm going to treat this and will not band it so that the air will immediately dry your wound" she whisper while putting liquid on my wound, "Please... be careful, it still hurts" I said in a low voice as she nod, I then wince when it's the alcohol hit the flesh but she immediately lean closer her puckered lips to my knuckles and blow it, it ease a bit the pain as I just keep quiet, I look at her profile and couldn't deny how beautiful she really is, but I tried to erase that unsolicited thoughts because I know she's impossible to be mine, and whenever she's done I get up as I heard her "I'm sorry" she said barely audible, but I've heard it before I enter our room and lay on the bed.

3 days have passed since I confessed to my teacher- Damn that's tough...

And everyday it's getting harder for me to act oblivious as if I don't care -I always care... it just feels like nothing has happened between me and Sandra. For the record I didn't ignore her, and I have never changed my way of approaching her.

It's not right to act like I'm back of being her top-notch student (don't argue, yeah that's me) and she's back to being a bitchy-boss-ma'am... because it will only make the situation awkward and childish, and to be honest I cannot ignore her because it is just ME, I can't change my nature, I'm just a natural disastrous flirt, I guess I cannot change that when it comes to her.

But not under James watch, lol.

Today is not different, I'm being lanient toward my teacher as we're currently dealing the intellectual part of this trip, which consist of appreciating art and it's history, I love paintings and those wood carved, it makes me wonder how long did the creator made the finest piece, and somehow it helps me stop thinking about this certain teacher-

"Are you okay?" Shawn asks which pulls me out of my thought "Yeah" I shrug, but in all honesty I'm not one hundred percent sure, I am still practising my heart to stop aching at the sight of Sandra and James being together, hopefully I can bare the jealousy and will eventually move on-in the long run.

I notice how everyone starts talking with each other and they slowly diverge to different areas, I guess it's time for the real adventure, "let's call it a day people, and tomorrow is a day for yourself so happy roaming the City" Mr.Theodore announce with Miss Knowles beside him as we walk back to each of our room.
