So Wrong, But So Right (girlxgirl) (studentxteacher)

Ch. 54

"Nicky? As in your girlfriend Nicky?" Dawn questioned, seemingly not able to believe the situation that was unfolding before her eyes.

"Yes," Danni murmured, still gripping Nicky's hand, but there was now a bit more of a build up of sweat between the two.

"I'm sorry I don't understand," Pete laughed.

"I'm Nicky, Danni's girlfriend," Nicky spoke.

Their was a brief moment of stunned silence. Then came the outburst.

"How on earth did this happen? Surely you realise this isn't right? Is it even legal? Do the school realise what's going on? I tell you what, when I tell them I will-" Pete said with a raised voice, his face turning red, and the veins in his neck becoming visible.

"I just don't understand! She's your teacher! And you're her student! It's sick. Both of you. But particularly you, Nicky, Miss. Jones, whatever. Grooming my child!" Dawn continued ranting.

"Please Mr. And Mrs. Jones," Nicky said timidly, "I didn't groom Danni, it was an accident. We love-"

"Oh please! Don't tell me you love each other! You can't! Whatever you're feeling isn't real, it's just a fantasy!" Pete was livid.

"No Dad! Please, just listen for a minute. You know that we met before term started. We were two strangers, we didn't know the situation we were going to end up in. There was just something magical. When we got to school we realised it wasn't the ideal scenario but-"

"But you should have stopped seeing each other. End of story."

"We tried. But we couldn't seem to escape each other. We kept bumping into one another, and Nicky was there for me when Toby tried to, well you know. She was the one who saved me."

"Well, that's very admirable of her, and we will all be forever grateful to her for that fact, but that doesn't give her the right to be with you in a romantic way! It's weird, Danni! You're eighteen, and she's, she's. How old is she?"

"Dad! Please talk to her directly! Ask her yourself! Why can't you look her in the eye?"

"Because she's dangerous Danni. She's got you wound around her finger and you don't even realise it-"

"Oh I realise it! And I love it. She's my world Dad. I don't see how you can't understand that."

"I do understand honey, but I don't think what you're feeling is love. It's warped. It's like some strange feeling towards her because she favours you and she's powerful and-"

"Bullshit!"

"What did you just say to me young lady?"

"I said bullshit because that's what you're talking. Although I'm young I know what love feels like. This is it. I've never felt this way. She looks after me, cares for me, in ways you could never. Ok, we're in a screwed up situation, but even if you don't approve, you've at least got to accept that what I'm feeling is real."

"You never answered my question," Pete sighed.

"What?"

"How old is she?"

"I'm twenty five," Nicky spoke up making direct eye contact with Pete for the first time.

"Oh for fucks sake! Twenty five! She's too old for you Danni! It's wrong!"

"I don't need you to tell me what's wrong or right! You've made enough mistakes in your life so let me make my own!"

"This is more than a mistake Danni! It's a criminal offence. It has to be. We are going to have to inform the school."

"They already know."

"What? And she's still walking free? Teacher other young girls and boys? What kind of sick school have we sent you to?"

"The headmaster knows. But technically we aren't breaking the law."

"How aren't you? You're fucking have a relationship with a teacher Danni! That can never be legal."

"Well," Danni squirmed, "if we haven't had sex then technically we aren't breaking the law."

"That's a joke! Kissing is bad enough! I presume you've kissed her? I'm surprised she's not fucked you while she's still not behind bars. I'm surprised she's not taken advantage of you and-"

"DAD!" Danni shouted, she really meant it this time, "don't talk about Nicky like that, I mean it. I love her. That's all that matters. Yes, I get it's not usual, but that doesn't automatically make it wrong. She never took advantage of me. I wanted this as much as she did, it's as simple as that. We never meant for us to get this far, but here we are, and I don't regret it a single bit. I'm in love, and Nicky makes me the happiest I've ever been. Please, for me, just accept that."

"Wait," a sudden thought hit Dawn, "you spent the weekend in Manchester with her? With your teacher? In the same room? In the same bed?"

"Yes but-"

"No buts. It's bad enough seeing each other inside of school. What if someone had seen? Do you realise what you are doing? What would other people have thought of your weird little relationship?"

"All of Nicky's friends were very welcoming."

"I'm sure they were," Dawn retorted.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Attractive teacher bags a young, attractive girl. It's just the right amount of smut to please a generation who are just about to hit the age when they'll be too old for such naughty fantasies-"

"Oh shut up," Nicky said, and Danni's jaw dropped.

"Excuse me?" Dawn seemed outraged.

"Call me what you want, at least you've met me, but don't insult my friends without knowing them. They're amazing, every single one of them, and Danni is amazing too. I know it's going to be hard to get your head around, but I never would have considered dating a student, never. But things happen, and Danni pulled me out of a dark place, she's made me happy, and that's what matters to me. Not her age, not whether she's my student. It would be better if she wasn't younger or my student, but life sucks, and it's turned out this way now. Please, just at least take some one to process this, instead of disregarding us completely."

After a few moments of Danni's parents being gobsmacked, Pete spoke up.

"I think my wife and I need to have a private chat."
