It's monday. I haven't heard from Tom since He stayed over. The rest of my weekend I mostly texted Gregory. Apparently, him and that older man really hit it off. So now I guess they're seeing eachother. Today I unloaded some of the full boxes I still had in my living room. Finally making my home a little more homier.
After a day of unboxing while watching criminal minds, I decided to get ready to get to Tom's class.

Getting out of the Uber I sighed

Getting out of the Uber I sighed.. man I really need to buy myself a car.
I walked down the halls of the uni. I hope Tom won't be embarrassed about this. There's nothing he should be embarrassed about. I push open the metal doors and saw no one. No Tom. No sub. Nobody.

I walked down the stairs and set my things down on his desk. I sat in my chair and waited for him to come waltzing in but he never did. Students began to rile in. Confused looks on their faces after seeing their Professor was gone.

"Good evening everyone! As you see, Mr. Hiddleston's running a bit late.." I look across the room.. what am I supposed to say?.. what do I do?.. okay just breath..breath..

"How about we play a little game..?" I smirk at the class and I their faces begin to light up.

TOMS POV

This traffic is absolutely ridiculous. The hotel I'm staying at is at least 40 minutes away from the Uni. Then this traffic isn't helping. I just hope Athena has it covered for a few more minutes. Hopefully telling them to finish the rest of their packets if they haven't finished them yet. Or had them read more of the book.

God I'm Finally here. I grab my briefcase and laptop from the backseat and run into the school. I approach the door when I hear a sort of ruckus inside the room I open the door and see Athena standing on a desk with a cloth wrapped around her arm like a sling

"YOU COMMON CRY OF CURS! WHOS BREATH I HATE AS REEK O' THE ROTTEN FENS, WHOSE LOVES I PRIZE
AS THE DEAD CARCASSES OF UNBURIED MEN
THAT DO CORRUPT MY AIR, I BANISH YOU!!" She screams. And the class applauds her.

"WHAT THE BLODDY HELL IS GOING ON HERE?!" I yell as I slam the door. The students and Athena all stare at me as if they've been caught.

"Get down from there!" I yell at her. She hops down and quickly takes the sling off.

"To- Mr. Hiddleston we were just playing a game.. it was an educational game I promise " she says walking up to me

"You call goofing off and standing on desks educational?! Can I not trust you with my students?!" I yell

A brown haired student walks up behind her "Professor H, Athena was just trying to-"

"I don't care about what she was TRYING to do! All of you, go sit down!" I yell "you are in a University, not a playground!"

"And you!" My eyes shift back to her "come with me" I turn around and walk up the stairs and out the door, her following behind.

"Look. We weren't just playing around" she says shutting the door behind her

"Then what we're you all doing?!" I questioned

"We were saying our favorite quotes from the book!"

"What book?!"

"Coriolanus!" She answered

"Why do you think you have the right to engulf my class in these silly antics?"

"Because it's fucking boring!" She yelled

Her eyebrows were furrowed and her arms extended. She exhaled shakily "look TOM, I don't know if you're embarrassed about waking up in my house, or that you've told me about your personal life, or maybe it's the fact that you just hate your life period! But you cannot, you WILL NOT disrespect me like you are now! YOU are the one that was late. And what did I do? I helped you! I kept your students busy! We had fun WHILE learning. You said in the beginning that you would like my help. But if you now realize that you don't want it, then I-.. I'll quit if I have to!"
I see tears cloud her eyes. Her fists balled, she turns on her heels and opens the door back up. I stand there in shock. A few seconds later the door opens back up and it's her with her belongings. She faces me
"thank you for this short experience. And I will say that outside of class you really are a..." she sighs then continues "you're a wonderful man...but this is the last time you're going to disrespect me and how I WANT to teach!" She sniffles then turns around and walks briskly down the hall, her heels echoing on the wood floor.
I couldn't form words.
