Illegal Affairs {A Robert Downey Jr. Teacher/Student Fan Fiction}

Home.

I unlock the front door and take a deep breath before opening it. There are so many memories in this place. I finally open the door and drop my box next to the door way. Wow. It's exactly the way we left it. Mom and dad were renting it out rather than selling it. Why? I do not know. I walked into the front room and sat on the couch. I was not expecting to feel this many emotions...

I got up and decided to walk up to my room and start unpacking. I heard my grandma and Izzy walk in, so I shut my door. Why am I so emotional right now? I must be getting ready to start my period because there is no reason for this.

I decided to go on a run to clear my head and try to feel better. I grabbed a pair of short-shorts and an old tank top.

"I'm going on a run!" I yelled before walking out the front door.

"Okay dear! Be careful!"

I put my headphones in and blasted my work out playlist. I have learned to love running. While I lived in California I would run on the beach at sunset to just get away. I also worked out with Chris a lot which usually wasn't really a work out because we would get "distracted" and end up making out. Oh Chris... I really do miss him. He took my leaving a little hard but he said he would come to visit so it's not all bad.

Man I really do miss California... I miss the weather most of all because I--- SHIT!!!

My thoughts were interrupted by a dog running around the corner and basically tackling me. What the fuck. The thing was licking my face and I had to shove it off of me in order to get back up. I scraped my knee and it was bleeding down my leg.

"fuck fuck fuck fuck" I mumble.

I look back at the dog to see if it has a collar on. It does, thankfully. I lean down to look at the tag.

"Okay what's your name baby? Lady. Hey Lady!" wait... "WAIT! Lady?!"

My heart collapsed into the pit of my stomach... Lady... My Lady... Our Lady... Tears flooded to my eyes and I collapsed and just held her. "Lady! Oh baby mommy is so sorry I didn't even recognize you! You look so big! Oh man what has he been feeding you?!" I laugh and pet her as she licks my face.

I begin to walk her home and then it hits me... he doesn't know I'm back. I instantly get nervous. shit shit shit. I'm walking up his driveway and am trying to find a way to drop her off and not be noticed. there is no way to do this other than knock on the fucking door. Well I could knock and run? No no no she would just chase me and he would defiantly know.

I make it to the front door and ring the bell. I bend down to pet Lady to make this less awkward. I hear foot steps coming closer. They stop. The lock jiggles. The door opens.

I look up and see him. His eyes widen when he realizes it's me. A range of emotions sweep across his face. Confusion, joy, sadness, and then it finally settles on a flat anger.

"I was running and I saw Lady running around without a leash... well I guess I didn't see her as much as get tackled by her." I chuckle to try and hide how fucking nervous I am right now.

"Thanks." he says coldly and opens up the door wider for her to walk in. She stays sitting next to me on the porch. "Lady come." he says coldly. She looks at me before sadly going inside. Before I try to walk away he notices my bloody leg. "You're bleeding." he says with a hint of compassion but still mostly cold.

"Well like I said she tackled me." I say sarcastically.

He rolls his eyes and opens up the door wider for me to walk in. "Come on and let me help you get cleaned up."

"No really I'm fine i'll just walk home and--"

"Come on." he says sternly motioning for me to walk in. I sigh and enter. My heart drops as I walk in. Memories flood back to me as I look at the different areas of the large house. All of the games and tears and laughs and kisses... my train of thought is interrupted by his rigid voice, but it's still him.
