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

Lets talk.

"Alright let's talk." He said propping his head up on his arm.

Fuck. "Right now?" I sighed rolling over. Maybe if I pretend to be exhausted, which I am, he'll leave me alone until morning.

"Right. Now." He said turning me around.

"But I'm..." *yawn* "exhausted."

"Renee." He said in a stern voice, which made me flinch. I hate when he uses that voice on me.

"Fine!" I sat up and started putting my clothes on. "Let's talk."

We went to the living room so we wouldn't get "distracted" again. I sat on the couch and he sat across from me on the chair.

"So..." I say awkwardly. Where do you even start.

"Did you meet someone?" He asks blatantly.

"Oh... Um... Well..." That caught me way off guard.

"Don't sugar coat it." He sighed rubbing his eyes.

I hesitated before answering. I really don't want to hurt him... Again. "Well... Yes. But--"

"Who." He asked in a monotone. It was less of a question and more of a demand.

"Remember the guy I met at the bar the night of my birthday?" He sat in silence. I swear I could see steam coming out of his ears. "But listen--"

"Renee I really don't want to hear it." He got up and went to walk into the kitchen. Every time I tried to speak he shut me down.

Alright I've finally had enough. "Robert stop!" I grabbed his arm and pushed him into the wall. "Listen to me. Nothing. Happened."

"Wh--what?" He stuttered.

"Yeah. I mean we kissed and stuff but I never had sex with him."

"Well why not? Nothing was stopping you?!" Man this boy really wants to start a fight huh?

"You know what? I don't NEED this! I didn't sleep with him because every time we tried I couldn't... I couldn't because I thought of you! Alright Robert?! You were the thing stopping me."

He let out a sign of relief and leaned back against the wall. "Oh... Um..."

"No you won't just put me on blast and expect me to just go with it and not do the same to you! I'm sure you were with someone while I was gone." God I really hope not.

He sighed and shook his head, "Don't be silly..." He pushed me to the side a bit and tried to move forward. Oh HELL no!!

"You will NOT try to make me think I'm going crazy!! I'm not crazy!! Don't fucking make my feelings invalid! Now answer the fucking question!" I shoved him back into the wall. I want the answer but at the same time I don't.

He slowly takes my hands off of his shoulders and holds them in his. I snatch them away and give him a serious look. He's stalling.

"Well after you stopped talking to me--"

"It was mutual."

"Whatever. After that... I ran into my ex at the store. She was in town for a little while... I looked real rough and she could tell something wasn't right. So we came back to my place and I told her what happened. I was a mess. The house was a mess. She helped get me back to normal. Well somewhat normal." He stopped and stared at the wall.

"Did you sleep with her?" I asked very calmly.

He hesitated before answering... The way I did before I told him my side... He's trying to protect me. He took a deep breath before answering, "yes."

I gritted my teeth together. Okay. Maybe it was just one night. "How many times..."

"I'm not sure..." He shook his head and put it between his hands.

I tried to keep my cool. "Not sure because you were drunk or not sure because it happened more times than you could count?" My teeth were clamped together and I could literally feel a vein popping out in my neck.

"We were together about 3 months before she went back home."

"So the second one?!" okay I can't do this! I can't keep my cool anymore!

"Look it wasn't anything serious... It wasn't a real relationship."

"Just sex." I started laughing hysterically.

"What?" He looked at me like I was insane.

"I just find it HILARIOUS that you were gonna get mad at ME for being with someone and you had a fucking FRIEND WITH BENEFITS!!" My laughter turns to pure anger. I start pacing the living room with clenched fists.

"Baby please relax..."

"NO you won't fucking baby please me!!! I'm FUCKING DONE!! I will NOT be antagonized for everything!!" I punch the wall as hard as I can. I lean against it and fall to the floor. I can't believe this is happening... I'm so tired... I pull my knees up to my chest and start sobbing.

"Rea... Rea please..." He sits next to me and pulls me into his chest. "I'm sorry. It meant nothing I swear."

"God your so stupid!" I push him away. "I'm not mad because you slept with someone else! I'm mad because you freaked out on me because you thought I slept with someone else!" 

"Renee I freaked out because I couldn't stand the thought of someone else holding you the way I used to hold you..." Woah. He still cares. But I'm too fucking stubborn to just fall back into his arms.

"And maybe I couldn't stand the thought of you holding someone else." He got quiet and looked into my eyes.

"Rea... I missed you. I was so upset that you left me. I loved you..." Loved... Past tense... "I... I love you." He looks solemn. He stares into my eyes, awaiting my reply.

I'm speechless... But the words escape my lips before I know what I'm saying. It's like instinctive, "I love you too."

His eyes soften and he leans his head into my chest. I rest my chin on the top of his head and run my hand through his hair. I sigh and decide to not let my stubbornness ruin what we have left, "Let's just forgive and forget..."

He pulls his head up from my chest. "I would love that." He smirks and looks deep into my eyes.

His eyes are beautiful... I missed him so so much but I was denying it. I put my hands on either side of his scruffy face and pull him in. His soft lips meet mine and my whole body relaxes.

Everything is finally at peace in my life. I hope that this lasts.
