My Teacher Loves Me

Chapter 6

Emily POV

I woke up to the light shining in my eyes. I rubbed them trying to adjust. As I kept squinting my eyes, I could see Lindsey still sound asleep. She was so beautiful and innocent just sleeping there. Everything in me wanted to kiss her. It was bad choice for multiple of reasons. She has a boyfriend, my breath probably reeks, and oh of course I'm her teacher. Gosh I hate this. What I would do for her to just be mines right now.

I looked down to see that we were still connected. I smiled. I was for sure she would let go being that it was rather hard for us to fall asleep last night, but when I did I slept peacefully.

Soon Lindsey started moving around and I hurried to shut my eyes afraid she would catch me staring at her.

I heard her laughing, so I opened them back up.

"What's funny" I said she she stretched.

"You were watching me sleep" she said as I frowned to how she knew that.

"How did you know"

"I didn't, you just confirmed it" she laughed.

She got me. I couldn't do anything but laugh.

"It's okay, I was probably snoring"

"Yeah it was what woke me up" I joked.

"Yeah right, I don't snore"

"Yes you do, like a maid stop by here and everything because you were so loud you were disturbing other people"

She laughed so hard at that. It was so cute. I loved making her laugh.

"You suck. I so did not. I will add that I slept very good may be this mattress" she said.

I was gone say me too and add that it could be because she slept next to me, but it could have been the mattress cause I slept good too.

"I promise I don't want to say this but can I have my hand so I can go shower" I asked.

She looked down and saw that our hands were still connected.

"Oh wow, we slept like this the whole night"

"Seems like it"

"I was for sure you were going to let go during the night"

"Same here"

She slowly let my hand go and as soon as she did I felt unconnected. I mean yeah we just unconnected out hands but my heart and body felt unconnected.

We looked at each other giving a weird look.

I don't know how much of this I could take. I wanted her not just physically but emotionally too.  After she told me she was a virgin, I didn't feel it was my right to take that even though she said she would. I know how high emotions can get with being with a girl. Maybe she doesn't.

"Have you ever been with a girl" I asked.

I could see the hesitation in her eyes.

"Yes. Never like had sex of course, kisses, yeah" she answered.

"Besides me" I said sarcastically.

"Uh yes besides you"

I was actually surprised.

"So why are you with Bradley"

"It felt right at the time. He was more than a friend, but not my boyfriend. He made me feel beautiful, he made me feel like no other girl could ever capture his eye, like I was his soul mate"

"So he feels you're his soul mate, do you feel the same about him"

She paused.

"I don't know what to think anymore"  she answered honestly.

"After how I've been feeling around you, I can't even come to terms with how I feel about Bradley as this moment"

"What do you mean" I asked as I sat up next to her.

"I just don't think it's fair to him you know. We've been together for years and I've NEVER felt this fire, this desire that I have for you. It goes beyond wanting to have sex with you, beyond wanting to be just next to you, beyond just wanting to be with you. I don't want to be with Bradley know this feeling came so easy. It's not fair to him because the way he loves me, someone should love him the same. He always talked about this fire, this feeling he got, and until now I know what he meant. It's just unfortunate it's not for him" she confessed.

I sat there in total bliss of what I just heard. I feel bad for Bradley I do. I know what it's like to have your heart broken by someone you love.

"So you're saying regardless of me and you, you're going to break up with him" I asked.

"Basically. It's only right."

I love you.

That's what I wanted to say, but when I love. I love so hard. I give my everything, my entire world to someone.

"That's real mature of you" is all that escaped.

We ended the conversation and got ready for our day. I was actually looking forward to going to the exhibit with her. It would give us more to talk about than this complicated situation.
