Professor Jones

Chapter three: Prince Charming

Uhm i just didn't know what to do with this chapter... eh

You lay across your bed as you read through Romeo and Juliet, your heart sank into your stomach every moment you'd read that play, you loved it and oh how you wished you'd have a love story like that, of coarse without the dying. As you turned the last page there was a knock at your bedroom door. You got up and opened it and your friend rushed in and told you to get dressed, you knew when she'd do things like this it was going to be her dragging you to a party just like she did in high school.  "COME ON! There's s party and we are not going to miss it!." She squealed and looked through your closet throwing clothes she hated out and clothes she loved on the bed. You stared at her crinkling your eyebrows together. "What are you doing to my clothes!?"She was still looking through them as she spoke "I'm finding you a cute dress, you are getting yourself a man tonight." You rolled your eyes as you grabbed all the clothes your friend through out onto the floor, "I don't need a guy I've done just fine without one." Your friend rolled her eyes and looked at you holding both of your arms " Come on! Please just come with me?." She pouted. You knew when she pouted that was her already convincing you to go anywhere with her you chuckled and shook your head "FINE!" She thanked you and then she pulled out a cute casual black dress from your closet "put this on it's always so cute on you." You stared at the dress and snatched it out of her hand and headed to go change.

**** at the party

When you get to the party your friend leads you to the table with all the drinks she pours your drink and hands it to you. "You know how i her when i drink" You said as you took the drink in your hand. She laughed "that's why I'm giving it to you, you gotta let loose girl." She said and took a sip from her cup as she swayed her hips to the music. You looked around to see people hanging out talking and laughing and some in the corner making out and the rest of the people were grinding on each other. "Come on lets dance!" Your friend said as she pulled you to the middle of the "so called" dance floor. "See this isn't so bad is it!?" You laughed as you both danced together.

Once the song was over you went back to the refreshments and took another drink in your hand, "I think you're right, it isn't so bad to let loose once in awhile." You both giggled and then you heard a mans voice call your friend from the distance, she smiled and took him into a tight hug and gave him a kiss, "Hey do you mind if i go with him for a few?" She asked and you shook your head, "no go ahead!" She gave you a hug and her and the guy disappeared.
You sighed and looked around it was now 1 am and you had no clue as to who any of these people were, non of them looked familiar but it was also kind of dim Inside the house. You took a deep breath and poured yourself another drink, 4 drinks in and you were already feeling tipsy. You stepped outside unable to balance properly, and you leaned against the porch wall. "Hey y/n." a random voice called out from the other side of the porch, you squinted to the other side unable to make out the dark figure, when the person came closer to the porch light you furrowed your eyebrows not recognizing who that person was, they grinned at you "Your friend said you'd be here." he said as he stepped closer making you feel uncomfortable. "She didn't mention you were a pretty one." he said as he grinned some more. "I'm sorry i don't know who you are." He leaned in and whispered in your ear, "Would you like to?" suddenly a familiar voice called from the distance, "Hey! get away from her!!" he said as he ran and pushed the guy away from you. "You should leave right now." Professor Jones clenched his fists and the man backed up leaving. "Hey are you alright?" he asked, "I think i need to sit down for a bit." Professor jones walked you towards the front steps of the porch and helped you sit down, you placed your face inside your hands embarrassed that Professor Jones had to see you this way, and scared because you were harassed by a random stranger. "I'm sorry professor." you said letting out a sob, he comforted you and laughed lightly. "Don't apologize, lets just get you away from here." he walked you a few blocks away from the house and took you to his own. "I don't want you to be alone tonight, so you're staying at my house." you shook your head, "No it's fine I can.." he then interrupted you as he opened the door to his house, "No, I insist..plus i could use the company."

**** in professor jones's house****

He walked you inside and led you into the kitchen where you sat at his kitchen table. "I'll go get you some water." You looked around his kitchen was small enough for one person, he had a few dishes drying inside a dish rack, and his table was fit for two people only. His kitchen was small but it felt comfy. He came back with a glass of water and you took a sip from the cup. "I'll go make up the bed for you, you'll be sleeping there tonight..I'll take the couch." You shook your head, "I couldn't this is your home, I'm fine with the couch." He chuckled and placed his hand on top of yours, "Please, it'll be fine, make yourself at home I'll be right back." he got up and headed upstairs. You stayed sitting there for a moment and got up to look around the living room. there he had one big couch, big enough to sleep on. a coffee table in the center of the living room that had papers sprawled all over it. He had a tv planted right in front and a table that had photo frames on top of it. You walked closer to the photos and picked up a frame, inside the frame was a picture of him and two older people, you figured it was his parents. you smiled to yourself and placed the photo back onto the table. You looked at the next photo of him and a random woman together in pairs, you frowned a bit, thinking maybe it was his girlfriend. He spoke from behind you, "That is my younger sister." he said smiling, as he walked next to you. "She's beautiful." he frowned, "She was." you set the frame back down and furrowed your eyebrows, "was?" he sat on the couch and you followed after. "She passed awhile back, Paris was the last thing she did before passing." you swallowed hard, "I'm sorry." he smiled at you. "Thank you, but it was a long time ago." An awkward silence fell upon the both of you and then he spoke, "Are you feeling tired? or If you aren't we could watch a movie?" You didn't feel a bit tired, so you agreed to watch a movie with him. The both of you decided to watch star wars, which was one of his favorites, and secretly your favorites as well. As soon as the movie played in the middle you began to feel yourself drift off and some how you ended up leaning your head against his shoulder and drifted off into a deep sleep.
