Love Affair - (G.D fanfic)

chapter 6: Monday!

Katarina's Pov:

Monday morning. It came too fast! My mum is meeting Mariana tonight which I'm excited about though she's still not happy I kept all this from her for 3 years.

"Katarina! You're already late! Let's go!" My mum exclaims.

I finish doing my makeup and grab my bag before jogging downstairs. I grab my keys and kiss my mum on the cheek before heading out the door.

I'm only late because she didn't do the laundry and I had no clothes so  she had to do the laundry before I could go.

Shit, the new teacher starts today! That's just great Katarina, late on the day the new teacher starts!

I hop out of my car and rush into the office to get my late slip before rushing to English.

I walk through the door and the teacher has his back to my so I set the late slip on his desk and go to my seat in the back beside Alex.

"Hey! Why you late?" She whispers to me.

"I had no clothes. Mom had to do a load of laundry!" I whisper back.

"Okay class sorry for that delay! Anyway, I am Mr. Dolan and I am your new English teacher an for those of you who have gym, your new gym teacher too!" A familiar voice says back still to the class.

"Have you seen what he looks like yet?" I whisper to Alex.

"No, he only entered the classroom like two minutes before you!" She whispers back.

"Okay so I know you guys loved Mr. Peters but I hope I can live up to him!" The familiar voice says again.

My phone buzzes in my pocket and I check it to see a message from Jason.

I stare at the notification on my phone, not even realizing the teacher had turned around.

"Excuse me! You in the back on your phone!" He exclaims.

I bite my lip and slip my phone back in my pocket before looking up. I was not expecting to see who I saw.

I could see in his eyes that he was surprised to see me too. Though no one else really noticed.

He ran his hand through his hair before starting off with the work we left off on last week.

"Yo! What's up with you!?" Alex whispers.

"Remember when we went to the beach?" I whisper back.

"Yeah!" She whispers.

"Well that's the guy I talked to!" I exclaim in a whisper.

"No way! He hit on a teenager!" She exclaims in a whisper.

"I was not expecting to ever see him again!" I exclaim.

"Well you guys can't get together now! I did ship you guys but now that he's probably much older than you..." She whispers.

"Yeah..." I whisper back.

The day goes by and dreadingly I head to gym. Two classes with grayson...no sorry Mr.Dolan...I really liked him and now that he's my teacher...

Before I can react someone's pulling me into a janitors closet and locking the door as it closes.

"What the actual fuck!?" I exclaim surprised.

"Woah, Katarina! Keep your voice down!" Mr. Dolan whispers.

"What the hell Mr.Dolan!" I whisper yell at him.

"Why didn't you tell me you were in high school!" He exclaims.

"Why did you tell me you were an adult!?" I exclaim back.

"Okay okay...we're both in the wrong!" He exclaims.

I look at his faint silhouette in the darkness, I feel his breath hitting my face and the only sound is our unsteady breaths.

"I like you Grayson..." I whisper.

"It's Mr. Dolan Katarina!" He exclaims.

"No! When we met you said to call you Grayson! When we met you were flirting with me! You liked me, I know you did! You can't just ignore the feeling we have Grayson!" I explain.

"I'm your teacher Katarina! We can't do anything! It doesn't matter how we feel, I'm your teacher! You're seventeen and I'm twenty three!" He exclaims.

"But...you feel this right. Grayson you feel this! I like you...we can try this...we can keep it a secret..." I whisper caressing his cheek softly.

He raises his hand to my cheek and swipes his thumb over it once before taking it back an turning his face from my hand.

"This isn't right. This will never be right!" He exclaims and leaves the closet.

I sigh and follow shortly after. I head to the change room and quickly change into my gym clothes before joining the rest of the class in the gym.

The rest of the day went by quite slowly but I finally was able to leave and go pick up Mariana.

Nate and Ronnie were glad I finally had told my mum about Mariana. They had said that they trusted my decision but letting my mum know was a good idea.

I pull into the drive way and climb out of the car, I grab Mariana from the back and then lock the car and head inside.

"Mum we're here!" I call as we enter the house.

I hear her heels clicking on the floor and she enters. There's a small smile on her face as she gasps.

"Mum, this is Mariana. My daughter!" I smile.

"Mariana sweetie, this is your grandma!" I smile at her.

"Hi!" She smiles and waves at my mum.

"Well hello beautiful! I just made some cookies, would you like one?" My mum smiles.

"Oh yes pwease! Mommy pwease!" She pouts.

"Yes dear. You can have some cookies. Let's go!" I smile and head into the kitchen.

We laugh and talk and play for a couple hours. Nate and Ronnie said to bring her back whenever but of course it's not up to them, she's my daughter.

I take Mariana back to nate and Ronnie and then come back home. I walk into the kitchen to join my mum whose still smiling.

"You did a good job on here Kat..I'm very proud of you!" My mum exclaims.

"Thanks mum. I learned from the best!" I smile and hug her tight.

"Shes absolutely beautiful!" She whispers to me.

"Thanks mum. I think she kinda looks like me.." I laugh.

"I was about to say the same thing!" She laughs.

"I wanna bring her home after I graduate mum! I want her to come live here until I get my own place!" I explain.

"Of course dear. I love her and she's your daughter! I'd love for her to come live here after you graduate!" She exclaims.

I smile and hug her tight. I didn't think she'd get used to this so quickly but I'm glad she did.

Next on the to-do list is tell J.J and Alex! Who knows how they're gonna react to that! Once I had started showing I faked being really really sick and hadn't seen them or anyone else for about six months. I don't know how they're gonna feel about this!
