I walked into the class and saw Amira sitting in the front. She was checking me out I saw her bite her bottom lip. I honestly didn't mind her check me out. She wasn't rude about it. She looked up to see me catching her checking me out she blushed and looked down. I smiled and turned toward my seat. I sat down and she still had her head down. Did I embarrassed her that much? Throughout the whole lecture she kept her head down and did the work.

"Amira could you stay after, please?" the last student walked out and I closed the door. I walked back over to her and looked at her. She wrapped her arms around my waist and kissed me. Her lips were so soft and smooth. She smelt like Jasmine and Vanilla. She pulled back quickly her eyes wide with shock. I saw the tears in her eyes. She grabbed her bag and ran out of the class.

"Amira!"

Amira pov

I got home and closed my door and fell onto my bed and started crying. I kissed my professor. Why the hell would I kiss her?

"Amira, sweetie are you alright?" I heard my momma ask at my door. I look up and saw her standing there. She walked in and closed the door behind herself the sat on the bed. She pulled my head into her lap. "Sweetie what's wrong?"

"I'm just not feeling so good

"I'm just not feeling so good." She placed her hand on my forehead. Her eyebrows furrowed.

"You have a slight fever." Really? That was just an excuse not to talk to her. She got up and went into my bathroom she came out with a thermometer. "Open your mouth baby." I opened my mouth and she put it into my mouth. It beeped and she took it out.

"101. You're not going to class tomorrow. Try and get some sleep I'll make you some soup sweetie." I nodded and laid down she pulled the covers up and kissed my forehead.

"Amara?" I opened my eyes and everything was moving around me. I saw the outline of Adri.

"Adri?"

"Yeah it's me. Mom told me you were sick. What's wrong?"

"I just don't feel good."

"Liar." She said. I look at her. "What did you do?" I sighed.

"I kissed my professor." She smiled.

"I knew you had feelings for her."

"I don't."

"Yes you do. Then why did you kiss her?"

"I don't know."

"Adrianne, why are you bothering your sister when she's sick?" she put her hand on my forehead and Adri was shocked. She had the 'holy shit you are sick' look on her face. I started to laugh but it turned into a cough. I saw my momma with a bowl in her hands.

"Adri leave. Go be with your niece and daughter. Amira needs her rest." Adri got up and left she smirked mouthing 'I told you so' before closing the door. I growled silently. I felt a cold hand on my forehead. I sighed and leaned into it.

"Your fever went up I'm not liking that. I'm going to take your temperature again." I nodded and she got up walking into my bathroom she came back out and placed the thermometer into my mouth again. It beeped.

"103. I don't like that not one bit." My momma is doctor so if one of us is sick she knows right away which is really annoying but I love when she takes care of me. She told me to sit up so she could give me the bowl. "Eat some of it. You don't have to eat all of it."

I woke up in the middle of the night with a familiar feeling. I got up and ran into the bathroom. I spewed up the soup and medicine she gave me. My body lurched and more undigested food came up. I felt a hand on my back. I looked back to see my momma.

"How did you know I was sick in the bathroom?"

"I didn't I came to check on you." Her hand was on my forehead. "Your fever went down."

I looked around the class and Amira wasn't here. She was never late and she's never missed one of my lectures. I hope she didn't decide to drop my class because of that kiss. I like her she's a bright kid. Ten minutes has passed and she still didn't show I was becoming worried. What if she did drop out of school or my class? I wouldn't want that on my conscience.

The second day past and she didn't show up to class. I was beyond concerned after class I went through my student files and found Amira Alivia. I went through it and found her mother's number. I grabbed my phone and dialed the number.

"Hello?"

"Hello this is Alanna Carmen. I'm your daughter's professor. She has not shown up for lectures in two days I just wanted to make sure if everything was alright."

"Yes everything is alright she's just a bit sick she should be in tomorrow. Thank you for your concern Mrs. Carmen."

"It's Ms. Carmen and you're welcome. Have a nice day." I hung up and sighed in relief. She was sick this whole time and I was worried about her dropping my class. I love having her in here even though she doesn't talk much I can see how smart she is by her lecture work and homework assignments.

"Amira your professor called." Did she tell her I kissed her? No she wouldn't be stupid to do something like that especially to my momma.

"What did she say?"

"She was making sure you were alright. Since I remember telling you to call your professor and telling her that you won't be in class because you were sick."

"I'm sorry momma. I've been asleep for the whole day yesterday and the day before after I got out of school then half of today because you woke me up to eat."
