Tell Me You Love Me {Student/Teacher}

Tell Me You Love Me-Chapter 7

I woke up on Saturday morning and checked my phone. I had a text from Carissa. 'CALL ME CALL ME CALL ME!!' I could tell she was freaking out. She must have found out about Jerod and me. I groaned and flopped back onto my bed. It was already 10:30, and I knew I should get up, but I really just wanted to go back to sleep and shut the world out. I sighed and called my sister. "LILY? WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON?" Carissa was literally screaming from the other end of the phone. "You know what, never mind. I'm coming to get you. Be ready, I'll be there in 5 minutes." The line went quiet, and I knew that she had hung up. I brushed out my hair and put on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. I was so not in the mood to talk about this, it was ridiculous.

Carissa pulled up 5 minutes later, just like she promised. I told my parents I was hanging out with her today and they both said that would be fine. I got into her car and she didn't say anything. Instead, she drove straight to the one of the diners in town. This is where we went every time Carissa or I were upset. We would go and get french fries and chocolate shakes and talk about our problems. We were sitting across from eachother in a booth, drinking our shakes, when Carissa finally started to talk. "Okay, why did Jerod call Scott last night and tell him that you broke up with him?"

I was tired and extremely upset. All I wanted to do was go to bed and call Jerod. But I was also so mad at Jerod that there was no way I was calling him. "Because I broke up with him." I looked back down at the table.

When Carissa realized that I wasn't going to say anything else, she sighed. "Because?" She sounded very annoyed.

I looked up into her eyes, the tears already starting to run down my face. "Because, he's my teacher and I'm his student and it's not even that. Ever since he discovered that I'm in his chemistry class, he treats me like crap and embarrasses me in front of my friends. He gives me detention when I stand up for myself. I deserve better than that!" The tears were pouring down my face at this point, I'm sure I looked like an idiot to the waitress who brought our food.

Carissa came around to my side of the booth and pulled me into her arms. "Shhh. It's alright. I'm mad at him for treating you like crap at school. Now listen, we have two options. The first one is not as fun as the second, but it's much more mature. I can call Jerod and take you to my apartment and I can make the two of you sit down like adults and talk this out. Option two is childish and immature, but it's fun. Our friend Sean is having a birthday party tonight at the beach. Jerod will be there. I was thinking maybe you wear a cute bikini, you go there looking super hot, and make him eat his heart out."

I pulled away from my sister and turned to look at her. "Carissa, that is really immature. I don't want him to think I'm some slut." I wiped my eyes with my hands.

"He won't as long as you don't act slutty. I'm not saying go there and get naked. Just go, look hot, and have fun. Listen sweety, you need to cut loose a little and quit being the responsible sister all of the time." She smiled at me.

I attempted a smile through my tears. Maybe Carissa was right. I didn't need to necessarily wear a bikini or try to look hot. I did however, need to cut loose. I needed one night that wasn't surrounded by drama. But I knew that Jerod was going to be there. I decided to stop over thinking everything and have some fun. I nodded. "I would like option two please." Carissa laughed and hugged me again.

"This guy is going to wish that he never messed with my baby sister." Carissa had an evil look in her eye. "You should bring a date! Bring that guy that took you to prom last year!" I smiled, an actual smile this time.

"Carissa, I don't want you to burn any bridges for me. Jerod is Scott's best friend and just because it didn't work out between us doesn't mean that you need to dislike him. I don't want anything coming in between you and Scott, including you not liking his best friend."

She looked down at me for a minute. "Lily, don't you worry about me and Scott. Nothing will be coming between us any time soon. But you are my little sister and when a guy breaks your heart, it is my job as your older sister to be evil and make him regret it. I'll pick you up tonight. You can stay at our place so you don't have to go through mom and dad's speech when you break curfew." I laughed at my evil sister. She had broken curfew enough times to know exactly how to get away with it.

"I'll text Austin to see if he wants to go with me. I'm sure he won't turn down a party at the beach. But if I'm bringing Austin, then you can't say anything about Jerod and I being a couple because Austin is in Jerod's class."

"My lips are sealed, I'll be at mom and dad's at 8. Be ready." Carissa brought me back home and I immediately started to wonder if I should just cancel the whole party thing and try to talk to Jerod like adults. Instead, I found myself texting Austin and trying on different outfits.

I was rummaging through my closet, when I found the perfect outfit. If I was going to make Jerod eat his heart out, this was the outfit. I held up Carissa's yellow sundress with the white lace on the bottom that I had worn on our first official date to the movies. It was the dress that Jerod had slipped his hands underneath while we made out at the park. I went through my swim suites until I found the perfect cheetah print swim suite to go with the look. Austin texted me and told me he would meet me at the party at 8:15. I had my outfit layed out and I still had plenty of time to make myself look good.

By the time my sister picked me up, I was ready. I was wearing the yellow dress with my swim suite underneath and I had my hair braided just like I did that night at the movies. Carissa whistled when I got into the car and I rolled my eyes. "Great choice of outfit! He is really going to be hurting." I smiled, but somehow, I knew that he already was hurting. In fact, he was probably hurting just as badly as I was. When we got to the beach, I was going to tell Carissa that I didn't want to go through with this, when I saw Jerod. He was looking super hot in his swim trunks and white t-shirt. Then, I saw her. Jerod had a girl on his arm. She looked absolutely perfect and she was more beautiful then I could ever be. She was wearing nothing but a tiny bikini that was more than one size to small. I felt like my world was falling apart. He had moved on already? I had a guy with me, but I knew that he was going to be here. Jerod had brought a girl with him, just as a date. Pushing back the tears, I went to find Austin and something to drink. If Jerod was going to have fun tonight, then so was I.
