After Hours | Eren Jaeger

Class is in Session

After wrapping my mind around the fact that this would be the professor I would be working with, I slowly closed my laptop as the class came to an end.

"Alright class, make sure you look over the syllabus so you know what to expect for the course." Professor Jaeger said as he started to grab his belongings from the desk stuffing them into his bag.

"Do you wanna grab some lunch?" Historia asked standing up from the desk.

"Yeah, I just need to talk to the professor for a bit, I'll meet you outside okay." Getting up from the desk I walked to the front of the lecture hall. Before I had the chance to speak, the black-haired girl from earlier slid in front of me.

Here we go

"Professor Jaeger." She said as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear looking up at him with seductive eyes. You've got to be kidding me.

"Yes, miss?" He asked waiting for her to tell him her name.

"Ackerman. Mikasa Ackerman." Giggling, she swayed side to side watching his every move intently. "I just wanted to say that I'm very excited to learn about this course and I'm pretty sure you're going to do a great job!" Clasping her hands together she gave him a big smile.

"Well, that's very nice of you to say. We have plenty of things to learn this semester so as long as you do the work, you'll pass." He returned the smile clearly oblivious to what she was trying to do. Or at least I thought he was.

"Of course sir. I try to be the best at everything I do." Smiling to herself, she walked out of the room giggling with her friends as soon as she hit the door.

Rolling my eyes, I made my way to his front desk clearing my throat.

"Professor Jaeger, I'm Iyla Harmon, I just wanted to let you know that you've been assigned as my professor who will work with me on my lab thesis."

Looking him up and down, there was no denying he was attractive. The way his dark green eyes looked at me as if he was staring into my soul, and I could smell the cologne flowing from his body. The smell of woody cedar, mixed with jasmine and a faint hint of vanilla.

"Ah, I actually caught that email from Ms. Zoe earlier, I just never got around to checking it since I was running late. I apologize as you must have thought you'd be working with Professor Janis, but she actually retired a week ago and I was assigned this class on short notice." Laughing to himself, he ran his hand across the back of his neck as he started to look through the email my advisor sent him.

"Now that I've looked this over, I will send you an email of all the requirements you will need to get a grade for this thesis. Since you're starting your junior year, you'll have plenty of time to spread it out." Picked his bag, he slinked it over his shoulder clutching his phone in his other hand.

"From now on, we'll be working closely together so if there's anything you may need you can always email me and I'll attach my number in case there are any issues and it needs to be answered immediately. It's nice to be working with you, Ms. Harmon." Smiling down at me, he extended his hand. Clasping my hand with his, I shook it lingering longer than I should have.

"Thank you, Professor Jaeger, I look forward to it." Finally letting go of his hand, I watched as he walked out of the classroom and took a deep breath. For a moment, It felt as if my heart was gonna explode. Something about being around him makes me feel a bit intimidated.

Shaking the thoughts from my hand, I walked out of the classroom to see Historia sitting on one of the outside benches.

Getting up from the seat, she ran over to me and linked her arms to mine. "You have to tell me everything that happened now!" She squealed as I immediately shushed her to prevent any unwanted attention from us.
