The Dream

"Ms Pakers, please stay behind." Luisa had spoken to me right before I walked out the door.

I hesitated to stay behind because my mind had been wondering places it shouldn't have this weekend ever since I had seen her at that hospital.

"Ms Lopez?" I said, breaking the silence that had been running throughout the room for the past 2 minutes.

"Do you-- wanna kiss me? Ms parkers," she said intensively.

"What.." I whispered, surprised at what she had just said.

'The fuck did she say!? No way she had just asked me that question.' I uttered to myself in shock.

Luisa leaned against her hand as she stared at my lips. "I said, do you wanna kiss?" she repeated.

I took a huge gulp of my spit as I opened my mouth, but nothing came out, I was way too flustered. I quickly looked away in embarrassment. What am I doing? This is pathetic. She had just asked me if I wanted to kiss her. That's all she asked. It not like she's going to do anything.

Getting lost in my train of thought, Luisa lifted my head with a packet sheet she was grading. I stared into her beautiful, deep brown eyes as she lifted my head with the paper. I stood there speechless, losing even more thought in her eyes. I always hated the color of my eyes because they're so dark. But when I look at her, I think they're the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. How could I ever hate something that is so beautiful?

"Ms parkers." She spoke potently

"Yes.." I responded in such a hushed tone.

"I asked you a question," she replied with a pause.

"So answer it." She continued to say in a very controlling manner. She stared down at me as if I was completely compromised in her beauty.

My mouth opened slightly in pleasure, and she moved the paper packet in closer, pulling my head in closer to her as well.

I looked up at her with puppy eyes. "Yes," I responded hesitantly.

She smiled slightly in satisfaction. "That's a good girl," she replied in a deep tone.

"Katelyn!?" A voice yelled, causing me to wake up from my dream.

I looked around, confused, as I lifted my head.

"If you're that bored of the class, Katelyn, you can leave my class." My forensics teacher told me bitterly that I had fallen asleep during the crime video.

"Sorry, Mr. Ox.." I replied geniually.

Mr Ox had just looked at me and then continued to talk about storage and examination of physical evidence, which is the current unit we are on. I stayed awake for the rest of the class, fearing Mr. Ox might send me to the principal's office; he is extremely strict and hates when anyone doesn't pay attention to his lessons. Usually, I find this class the most interesting because of the real-life seniors, but I am just drained. I had a long week, and we have playoffs again on Thursday in Austin, so I will not be going to school on Friday. So much stress.

After a few more hours, I finally reached the end of my second period. I drove straight to the school right after, considering my forensics class was in another building 15 minutes from my High school. I went looking for Luarel because of our text messages from the other night. I was extremely curious about this surprise.

"Coach Smith?" I asked, looking for her in the classroom.

"Katelyn, I'm so glad you made it. Here," she told me while giving me something in a box.
