Marie Pov

After me and Michael  had a lovely meal, we were planning on taking a drive. No where in particular, but he suggested it.

The whole ride I stared out the window. What was Mathew talking about when he said "I know more than you think you do." I'm pretty sure he knows that there is a thing between me and Michael.

The more I thought about Mathew, the more I began to panic. Me and Michael aren't even supposed to be involved with each other but we carry on without a care in the world. If the higher authority found out, then Michael would be out of a job and I could kiss my academic career goodbye.

The feeling of Michaels hand over mine stopped my thoughts. He rubbed my knuckles tenderly and I looked down, smiling.

"Baby girl, what's the matter?" I looked at him and shook my head. "Nothing Michael, it's fine."

He pulled over slowly and turned his direction towards me. "Marie, baby, you can talk to me about anything, okay?"

I looked at him and pecked his lips. "Thank you Michael, I really needed to hear that."

He looked over to me and smiled with that million-dollar smile.

Marie, stop being pussy and just tell him already!

"Mathew knows." I blurted. I looked over to Michaels reaction and he seemed too calm. I waited for him to react but he sat there with a relaxed expression on his face.

"Did you hear me?" He nodded. "Then why aren't you doing anything, your not angry, your not sad, what gives?"

Michael shook his head with a grin on his face. "Baby." He started laughing. "Do you think that Mathew is really going to do anything?" He was laughing till he was in tears. I sat there angry as hell that he isn't taking this seriously.

"He approached me after you left Michael." I sighed as I looked out the windows. "He said, 'I know more than you think I do.'Then he walked away really slowly." Michael kept laughing until I was fuming.

"Michael, what is so fucking funny huh?! Your career can be destroyed as my academic career." I looked over to see him struggling to stop giggling. "Okay." He said. He was wiping away his tears from laughing. "Oh baby, your too funny... Mathew isn't going to do shit." He said while adjusting the mirror in front of us.

I crossed my arms. "And how do you know this?"

"Because the same thing happened with me and.." He stopped dead in his tracks.

YOU AND WHO NIGGA?

I sat up on the passenger seat and looked him dead in the eye. "YOU AND WHO?!" He looked at me and looked down into his lap. "So I wasn't your first Teacher-Student relationship was I?!" He wasn't answering so I sat back in my seat and re adjusted my seatbelt. "Take me home Michael." I sat there arms folded and my eyes peered out the window. He rubbed his face and sighed. "Marie, your really going to do this? After we just went on a date?"

"I said take me home." I looked back over to him and I felt one tear rolled out of my right eye. He tried to touch my thigh. Oh no, not right now. "DO NOT TOUCH ME!" I heard him exhale heavily and the car started.

Not to long, we were in front of my building. I unbuckled my seatbelt but before I put my hand on the handle, he child-locked all the doors.

"Marie, let me explain.." I averted my eyes up to the ceiling and shut them in frustration. "Michael, I don't give a damn about what your going to say, I never want to see you again, so let me out."

He tapped his fingers on the steering wheel. "You don't mean that." I grinned. As tired and angry as I was I smiled. "Oh yes Michael, I do." I tried to un lock the door but it wouldn't budge. I sat there irritated and frustrated.

Michael just stared at me with anger and sadness, mixed in one. "What's her name Michael?" I whispered.

"Do you really wanna get int-" "YES MICHAEL I REALLY WANNA GET INTO THIS!" I was about to throw a fucking tantrum if he didn't let me out of this car.

"Marie, baby, let's not go there right now, please." I tried to keep my face straight but I felt the tears pouring out my eyes. "I thought I was special to you Michael. I thought we had something so unique...you know?"

Michael was shaking his leg, I think he was trying to fight back tears as well.

"I-I thought I was the only one Michael. The only one you would break the rules for... The one you would do anything to be with for... I guess I was wrong?"

"Marie stop it now!" He voiced. A tear was in his eye but he didn't let it drop. "Marie, I swear she didn't-"

"She didn't what? Mean anything? Is that what your going to say if you get involved with another relationship like this?"

"No, you want to know why?! I would do anything to be with you. I don't care if I get fired, or arrested. I want to take you up stairs and devour you right now, your everything I want and more!" I shook my head and denied everything he told me.

"Your only saying this because we're involved. When you get into another relationship, you'll be like 'Marie who?' 'Oh baby, I swear she didn't mean anything to me. I know how guys are Michael."

"You know what? Why does this even concern you? What happened between me and-" He stopped knowing he was about to reveal her name. "Marie, I shouldn't concern you who I was involved with before you... Okay?"

I saw that the doors were now unlocked. This was my chance. I rubbed my face as I was prepared to ask him this next question. "Did you sleep with her?"

"Marie, that shouldn't affect us."

"Did you or did you not?"

He nodded with both hands on his face. "I did, okay. Are you happy now?"

"Goodnight Michael." I held the handle and opened the door and walked out side.
