Problems - Teacher!Levi x Reader (Modern au)

Chapter 4 - Kiss

The world had stopped around them. There was just the two of them, in silence, connected by their lips.

It was a gentle kiss. Levi didn't push himself on (f/n), he tenderly hold her chin and softly pressed his lips against hers. His breath brushed against her skin and his nose grazed against her cheek. His mouth opened a little and he groaned quietly pressing himself slightly harder against her mouth. Her lips were tingling and there was a fuzzy fluttering inside her like a million butterflies had been set free there. Their lips were moving in sync. She felt Levi bite her lower lip gently and trace his tongue against it as if asking permission to come in. It was until then she realized what she was doing and with who.

Panic rushed through (f/n)'s mind and she abruptly pushed Levi away. She was breathing heavily and there was a total chaos inside her head as if a nuclear bomb had been exploded there. She couldn't think straight and processing what had just happened seemed impossible to her.

"I need fresh air." Still kind of disordered she clasped on to the only clear thought in her head and quickly grabbed her backpack and her stuff from the desk before rushing out of the door. She could hear Levi say something after her but not processing what and that point she didn't care much. She just wanted to get out of there to somewhere where she could sort out her thoughts and clear her mind. She ran through the hallways all the way to the front door where she slumped on the ground. It was still raining and the thick clouds made the weather look lifeless by coloring everything in dark grey. She stayed there sitting on the ground unmoving and let the rain soak her.

"I shouldn't have left so abruptly... It was stupid of me." Remorse of her actions began to take over her head. She should have stayed, now there were just so many questions left unanswered and not to mention she didn't know how Levi felt about her sudden leave.

"Aaarh why am I such an idiot?" She covered her face with her hands. Her thoughts went back to Levi. His lips on her lips, the warm hunch of coffee in his breath, his hand under her chin... Did it actually happen? All of it was like a dream she had just woken up from. She didn't know what to feel or what to think. It was all a huge mess which she didn't make head or tail of.

She touched her lips softly and rubbed her fingers against them. They were still tingling and felt vulnerable to touch. Had she liked the kiss? She knew the answer but wanted to deny it as it would make things a lot easier. But as much as she wanted to do that, she knew that she had liked it.

It had been few weeks since the evening with Levi. (f/n) had been avoiding him ever since then. She had become familiar with Levi's schedule so she was mostly able to predict when and where he would be walking through the school so she was able to avoid him quite nicely. But of course there were exceptions so every time she was about to run into him in hallways she hid to wherever she could, whether it was a toilet, some friend group or a plant.

She even stopped going to his math classes. The reason for that wasn't her desire to fail her math class but because she was too embarrassed. First she was embarrassed because of what had happened between the two of them and after that she was just too embarrassed to go there after such a long time. She didn't even care about her grade anymore, it didn't matter a rat's ass to her if she failed or not.

Of course (f/n)'s friends along with other her classmates had noticed her strange behavior and asked her about it but there were no way she could have told them. After all it would have landed Levi on some really deep shit him being a teacher and all, and she didn't want that. Actually she didn't know what she wanted to do. In one aspect she wanted to talk to Levi but she was too afraid and embarrassed. From other point of view she just wanted to forget the whole thing and do nothing but she knew she had to do something. In the end, she couldn't continue like this till the end of the semester.
