Illegal Moves

Chapter 7

Iona's POV

I just kissed my math teacher. What the hell was wrong with me? Oh yeah I know. My emotions were going off the rails right now and I wasn't thinking clearly and I just kissed my god damned teacher. How was I ever going to look him in the eyes now? Those gorgeous, dark, caring eyes. Oh how I would miss them. Ok I was being a little dramatic but still. I had just ruined a perfectly good night with him. I actually thought I was getting somewhere with him but he will probably go back to hating me. I start walking up the stairs when I trip over one of Adeline's toys. I fall backwards on my back. I make a huge crashing sound. The kitchen lights flicker on and Jim and Maria show up at my side. "What in God's green earth is going on down here?" Maria shrieks. She sees my green cast. "Oh honey what happened to you." Jim pulls me to my feet.

"I fell off a horse at work and landed on my ankle wrong,"

"Who just brought you home?" Jim asks me.

I hesitate for a moment. Do I say he's my teacher or a friend or something? "Aleks Connors, a guy at my work," I mean, it wasn't a complete lie. He was at my work today.

"Ok whatever but next time be a little more careful," he pauses, "and a little more quiet," Jim says as he walks back to his room. Maria starts to follow him but turns back around. Her black curly hair bouncing as she turned her head. "Oh hey I was thinking, Jim and I are going out this weekend and I thought you could take the kids to the park for the day," she says with a sweet smile. She asked it like a question but I knew that I really didn't have a choice. I just nodded and smiled. Wow just how I wanted to spend my weekend.

On my to school I could barely get up the bus steps with this stupid cast. I can't even imagine what stupid remarks would be told to me when I get to class. When I hobbled in on my crutches everybody stared at me. The first person to speak was Mason, the kid who slapped my butt the first day of school like three months ago. "Let me guess, you fell down the stairs like the stupid ditz that you are." What an ass.

"Um no, for your information I was riding a horse and got bucked off," I reply to him simply.

From the back of the room comes "Ya riding Mr.Conners dick." I snapped my head to see who said it.

Jason.

Both me and Aleks stare at him with our mouths gaped. Before Aleks can scold Jason I shout " If you don't shut the fuck up right now, I'll shove this crutch down your throat!" I threat, wobbling over to his desk with a crutch pointed at him.

"Iona let me handle this," Aleks says walking to our half of the room. When he gets to us he stands right behind me. He leans down and whispers "go sit down," he says it pleadingly. He is much taller than I am so I have to raise my eyes up to look at his face. We lock eyes for a moment and then I go sit down. At first I don't know what Aleks is saying to him but then I hear Jason say " You know that's illegal right?" Oh goodness. I think Aleks made it sound like I was doing what Jason claimed. Aleks probably said something along the lines of if she were riding my dick, that would be none of your business anyway. I see Jason slide down in his chair a little bit. Whatever Aleks said worked. This was the first time in like forever that I was embarrassed. Aleks sits at his desk and grades papers while we all work silently. He stands up and starts passing back yesterday's quiz. When he hands me mine it says A+ with a side note Stay after class. Shit. He probably wanted to talk about me kissing him yesterday. "Ding ding ding" the bell rings and everybody gets up to leave except me. Jason smirks at me as he passes my row. I throw him a come at me bro look. He just rolls his eyes and exits the class. I start to get up and walk to the front of the room but he holds up a hand. "I'll come to you," he suggests, getting up and walking over to me. He probably didn't want me to have to walk.

"Ok I just want to say that I'm extremely sorry for what happened last night and that I should not have done it and...," I say really fast but he cuts me short.

"Your right you shouldn't have done that but I shouldn't do this," He grabs both sides of my face. His hands cupping the sides of my neck with his thumbs resting at the front of my ears. You know, that super sexy grip that guys do in movies all the time. Anyway he does that and smashes his lips to mine. At first I just stand there but then I kiss him back. I put my hands on his waist. The kiss isn't like the hungry deep kisses I had with Jason but a sweet passionate one. His lips taste like the strawberry gum that he chews all the time. Thank god I had just been chewing mint gum. If he was the one kissing me this time then I know he wants to. And I sure want to. I slip my tongue into his mouth and he deepens the kiss as our tongues dance over each others. After a couple more seconds I break the kiss to get a breath. He drops his hands and puts his arms around my waist pulling me closer to him. I rest my hands on his upper arms. We both look up at each other breathing heavily. He rests his forehead against mine. "I wanted you to know that I'm here if you need me." He says his breath tickling my face.

"You don't even know how much I need someone like you," I say starting to cry. He removes his forehead from mine and pulls me into a hug. I cry into his chest as he strokes my hair. It finally hits me. He came to the back of the room where the desks are because this side of the room has no windows. That reminds me how dangerous what we are doing is. I pull away from him out of his embrace. He has a hurt look on his face.

"Aleks," I say shaking my head. "This is really dangerous. I don't want to get you in trouble," I say with a frown.

He reaches for my hands. "You won't," he lifts one of my hands to his lips. He kisses my bruised knuckles. The touch of his lips sends shivers down my spine. Good golly I want him so bad, but not, as much as I think his job is lame, I know how much it means to him and I won't be the reason it gets taken away. I yank my hand back " I won't get you in trouble. I won't do it," I sigh and gather up my crutches and hop out of his class. I leave him staring dumbstruck at me.

A/N

Sorry this was a short one but  I really wanted the chapter to end at that last sentence but I promise the next one will be longer.
