Teacher's Pet (A Brendon Urie Fanfiction)

Chapter 38

I walked out of my room and went back down to Harpers, now completely dressed. I knock on the door and it swings open as she looks at me. 

"Come spend the day with me. Just us two. I looked up a nice coffee place that's around the corner. I said we'd hang out more so now is your chance." I tell her with a  smile on my face hoping she'll accept the offer. It's the least I can do for her after everything she's learned today. Not every day you get to learn about your French teacher's affair includes your best friend.

"Okay. Just let me grab my jacket." She says her usual smile returning back to her face. With that, she grabs her jacket and we make our way downstairs and down to the street walking over to the small little coffee bar I found. 

We walk down the road making a slight turn before we are quite literally standing in front of the cafe labeled "MATA MATA Coffee Bar."

"You really were not kidding when you said around the corner." Harper laughs softly and I nod. "Didn't really feel like going too far from the hotel." I tell her as we step in. It was a small little shop that had about 4 sets of tables and chairs inside with two outside. We walk up to the counter and I look up at the menu to see what my options are. Once I've decided I tell the cashier my order, in french might I add, and stepped aside to let Harp order. 

"Uh...can I get an expresso shot..." she decides to not even try french. Thankfully the cashier understood her and gave her a sweet smile as he handed her her change back. We both go over to a table sitting down as we wait for our beverages. 

"I just want to say sorry about Brendon back in my room he was out of line. He shouldn't still be treating you like that and poking you around." I say to her and she shrugs fiddling around with her fingers on the table. "It's whatever. I just have to learn to ignore it. Thinking about how you are with him will help me though over time." She replies and I nod in response. The cashier walks over with our drinks carefully putting them on the table for us. 

"Merci." I give the man a sweet smile as he glances over at me and smiles giving me a wink "Aucun problème magnifique." before walking back over and behind the counter. I can't help but blush from the compliment and I look over at Harper who has a smile once again plastered on her face.

"What did that guy just say?" she asks curious and I roll my eyes, sipping my frappuccino. "You should know since y'know, you've been taking french class for half the year."

She groans leaning back in her chair "Yeah I've taken it once. How many classes have you had?" she says to me trying to defend herself. I laugh setting the glass down on the small plate it came on. "You should know how to translate no problem beautiful without any issue though." I tell her and she squeals quietly. "Even the french guys like you here!!" she says excitedly and we both laugh. In the background of our laughter, we hear the small chiming of the bell go off as a new customer walks in. Since my back is against the window I only see the back of the man as he walks by. He has a leather jacket on with a hood while wearing some jeans. Look a bit American. 

"Hottie alert." Harper whispers and I cringe looking back at her. "Can you maybe not be so corny?" 

She giggles to herself turning herself back around to look at me. "Sorry, can't help it sometimes." 

I stare at the man a moment more before bringing my focus back to Harper. "What do you think of Paris so far? I definitely want to come back someday." I tell her and she nods in agreement. "It's so gorgeous here. I'd have to learn the language more before coming back but I definitely would." she goes on and I notice the man turn slightly. I squint my eyes trying to see his facial features. He had a pair of sunglasses on and the hood was nearly covering his entire face until he thanked the cashier for the coffee as he passed it to him. When he brought the disposable cup up to his lips, the hood moved out of the way revealing the man's face more.

I'm going to fucking scream.

"Harper I'm sorry hold on," I tell her as I get up, anger starting to build up in my blood as I walk up to him pulling his hood back. Brendon looked taken aback, the sip of coffee he just took going down the wrong pipe causing him to cough loads in response to the shock. 

"Are you fucking serious right now? You followed us here?" I try to keep myself calm even though I want to scream at him. After his coughing subsides he sets his cup down looking at me "You both can't be out without someone supervising you." the excuse spews out of his mouth as my hands turn into fists.

"Don't tell me that bullshit. I picked this spot knowing we were allowed to come here alone. Why the fuck are you here?" I pretty much spit anger at him. "Because I don't like you being out alone okay? What if something happens to you here and I'm not around to help huh?!" He goes off raising his voice a little as he takes a step closer to me. 

"What you think I'm gonna just end up with some fucking guy here you can't give me space for 2 fucking hours?" My voice starts to raise as well and I hear Harper's chair scratch against the floor as she pulls my shoulder gently. "Hey take this outside I don't think the staff will be happy if it gets any louder..." She says concerned and I sigh walking out with her out front and Brendon quickly follows. 

"Look I just don't want anything happening to you alright? I know you are pissed off with me from before but I came now just to make sure you'd be okay." He tells me sounding genuinely concerned for my well-being. "Honestly that's kinda sweet.." Harper whispers in my ear from behind me and I glare at her "Stay out of it." 

I sigh crossing my arms as I look at him "Fine. It's still not okay that you just decided to follow me though. I wanted the day to just be Harper and I."

"I know I'm sorry. I just don't want anything to happen to you." he sweetly takes my hand in his and hear Harper's awe from behind me. I look back at her again and she shrugs. "What? It's cute. Liz I'm not really mad he showed up it's fine. He just wanted to know you were okay." 

I sigh looking back at him "If she's not mad then I'm not. But no more just randomly stalking me places when I'm by myself.". "Let me know where you are going then at least while we are here?" he asks and I nod before giving him a hug. "Fine." 

"I love you.." he mutters into my neck while hugging me and I can't help but smile.

"I know."
