D R I V E--RDJ (Teacher X student)

-your POV-

As I got into my mothers car I let out a sigh,why do things have to be this way!?why does the only person I  can tolerate have to be my Proffesor!? this is ridiculous! The way he makes me feel so at ease,The way he can make me feel so uncomfortable but yet at the same time I want to kiss his scratched lips? why must my life be like this!? why is this fair? so many questions so little answers.Everyday I sit before him and listen to his lectures on how to become a published writer and yet I can't hear a word he says, all I can see is his lips moving making words that I can't process,not that I don't want to listen it's just my thoughts,they distract me.My thoughts like; 'I wonder if he even likes me?' 'does he know I like him?' 'am I stupid for having this crush?' 'will I ever even talk to him out of school?'.All these questions and yet i'm still here with no answers.

''I'll have to work late tonight honey so I've arranged with a member of staff to drop you off home''My mom works as the assistant head of the uni I go to,the only reason I go to this university is because it's all paid for as my mom works there,if not I'd be going to somewhere in Manhattan,like i'm supposed to,where I grew up,where all my friends are, where my life is.I moved from New York to California a few years ago and It still doesn't feel like home to me,it never will.''Who will that be?''I asked not really interested I just wanted to make conversation whilst I untangled my Apple earphones which always seemed to be tangled even if I hadn't tangled them.''Mr.Downey''My heart stopped,what!?,''Are you serious!?''I doubled checked,Mr.Downey is my professor the one I like,alot.''Yes,is that a problem?''she looked skeptically at me and I shook my head,THIS IS A PROBLEM YES! this is going to be a long day I can tell, not only will he know where I live but he'll be there until my mom gets back--which I'm assuming will be around 8pm.This can't be happening, why is it always me!?,''Mr.Downey's a nice guy, don't sound so scared''She laughs jokingly,if only she knew then maybe I wouldn't be freaking the hell out right now! on the verge of a panic attack.I roll down a window in need of fresh air,I have to get out of this,think........think.''I erm, I have to.........go to Carla's to do a project''I lie,Carla is one of my only friends in New York and without her I don't know what i'd do everyday.''It can wait'' she was tapping impatiently at the steeringwheel as she waited for some highschoolers to cross the road,maybe this won't be so bad,maybe I will be able to contain myself whilst he's there.

We reached campus and I rushed out of the car and over to the usual spot where I met with Carla,we needed an emergency meeting and we needed one now,this can't be happening! Today of all days as well; February 14th which means valentines day.The day that I feel at my worst,each year I eat my own body weight in Ben and Jerry's ice cream and watch sad romantic films.I guess atleast this way I won't be on my own,I wonder if he likes Cookie dough Ice Cream!? maybe he's married,then surely he'd spend today with his wife not baby sitting a 23 year old woman who can obviously not be trusted to be home alone.''What's wrong? is it a code 19!?''Carla rushed to my side as soon as she saw me.Code 19; mom's having a family barbeque that I can't get out of,''No even worse'' her eyes widened.''Not a code 54!?''her voice full of shock,I nodded.Code 54; My hot ass teacher is coming over to my house and I think I may have to sit on his face.......what!? you may think that is a ridiculous code to have but yet we're here having a code 54!,''Oh god! is there no way you can get out of it!?''We started walking to class as it's all the way across campus which is where the staff car park is but no! my mom obviously can't drive me to my freaking class.''Nope I even used the prject excuse but she said it can wait''I was panicking again and seeing him in a short amount of time would make things even worse,you might not see the problem that I'm having and think that I'm overreacting but nope,I'm not overreacting by any stretch of the imagination,this was bad and I mean bad. Just hear me out on this, Ican barely stop blushing in his class,anytime he asks me for a contribution I fuck up my words and stutter,any time we make eye contact well,let's say it's hard for me not to make unholy noises.When he's at my house I'm going to have to be with him,I can't just leave him whilst i'm in my room that would be rude.
