Blake's POV

"So coffee or tea?" Jenny asked.

"Mhm, can you make iced coffee?"

"I sure can ma'am," she said, winking at me. I just stared at her confused and what's with the ma'am?

As she was making the coffee I looked around her living room and I saw a picture from when she was little but she was crying.

"Jenny, you look so adorable here. Why were you even crying?"

Jenny blushed, probably embarrassed of me finding this. "Uhm, it was actually when I got the news of you moving."

I laughed in return.

"Stop, it's not funny." Jenny said angrily.

"I'm sorry, it's just, you really loved me didn't you" I said, drying my tears.

Jenny blushed more and looked away, "Well, it was your mom I was missing more."

I got closer to her and bent down to her level and examined her closely. "Mhmm, I don't believe that." I stood up and went to the kitchen to see my iced coffee done.

Jenny's POV -

Did she actually do that? Am I dreaming, she was so close and goddamn it, I'm not going to lie I just wanted to kiss her. I mean it got so hot in here, surely she felt some tension as well.

"So, did you miss me?" I asked, bravely.

"I missed your mom more." She said, rolling her eyes.

I rolled my eyes too, "C'mon be honest."

"Not until you say you cried in that picture because of me." Blake said.

"Fine, I did."

"Did what exactly?" Blake asked.

I rolled my eyes, "Really?" I sighed, "Fine. I cried in that picture because I found out you, Blake Jones, moved away."

She got closer to me, but not as close as before and said, "Next time, don't give me attitude or roll your eyes. But I'll accept it, this time. Anyways, yes Jenny I missed you too. You were my only friend as a kid. I wasn't very social, and you were the only person whose company I ever enjoyed."

I blushed and nodded. I did remember her being quiet. But look at her now, she grew up and now talks in front of many students.

After a few minutes, of talking about how college was for her and how high school was for me, she decided that it was time to leave.

"Well, I have to go get ready for that meeting but this was nice. I'll go now, thank you for the coffee."

"Yeah, it was no problem. Before you go, do you want to get some coffee together some time?" I asked, blushing while smiling softly.

"Is that a date?" She said bluntly, raising her eyebrow.

"Uhmm, it could be" I said looking up at her to see her reaction.

"I'm sorry Jenny, but I hope you didn't get the wrong idea. I really did just want to meet up to see how you are doing. I-," Blake said before I interrupted her.

"I'm sorry, no no I meant as friends. I was just joking earlier" I said, lying.

"Well, in that case sure. I would love to get some coffee soon. Anyways, I'll get going now, bye"

After I walked her out the door I went to my couch and flopped on it so hard, I felt as if I could have broken my neck. I turned to see my crying picture, which obviously my mom left here on purpose, I instinctively remember telling her to leave it in the basement. But it now has me questioning if Blake cried too, I need to ask her next time. And well now I know if I ask her out, I'll get rejected. But I don't care, I'll just stick to being her friend, and if something more forms well, I'll let it be. After reuniting with Blake I now know why I rejected every single one of those confession from back in High School that I was given. My heart belonged to Blake and Blake only.

I don't mean to sound so obsessive but I don't know, I never had this type of feeling before with someone, who I crave for their attention or presence. I want to get closer to her, but only thing keeping me apart is her being my professor.

After a few hours of watching tv and reading, I decided to call Avery to fill her in on my morning.

Avery: Dude I swear if you replace me with Sarah, I'll come for you.

Me: Stop, you guys are your own person. Also, she's a new friend. But to keep your mind sane, you'll always be my first friend.

Avery: Alright, and honestly she sounds so cool. I'll try visiting you soon, to meet her.

Me: She might be taken, just letting you know.

Avery: Why do you think I'm obsessed with anybody and everybody? I take offense to that. Also, you have to end whatever that is going on with you and Blake. She's your professor, or until she isn't. I mean it is weird that you guys meet up, what if another student sees you guys hanging around a park, you might ruin her career.

Me: Okay first of all, I'm 19, it's not illegal.
Secondly, I thought you said you'll support me.

Avery: I don't mean legally, but instead it'll be a bad image for her though, and sorry I will, but again if you want to meet up with her try to make it an a private place, not somewhere anyone from school can see or they'll spread rumors.

Me: You're right. As always. I will, sadly my place won't be an option, no hate to Sarah but you know.
