my music teacher [a.i] | on hold

Chapter 2

• Bryndell's POV •

It's been a week since the kiss. Mr. Irwin and I decided not to continue with a relationship or anything like that. And I think that's a great idea.

But. There's one thing on my mind that I just cannot let go of.

Our kiss. How our lips fit perfectly together. How the moved together. How I felt like everything else had disappeared. I felt like we weren't even on earth. We were on a different planet. In a different galaxy.

No. I need to stop thinking like that. It's not good for me. I should be looking for a boyfriend, that's not Mr. Irwin. One that's not my teacher. There is this one guy... His names James. But I don't think he would ever want to go out with me. He's a senior. And I'm a sophomore. It just doesn't work. I don't know. I should just read or study or something. Just not think about it.

But I can't. I can't stop thinking about it. I can't stop craving his lips. How could I not. They're just so. Kissable. And his smile. God how his smile could save lives. And his eyes. His eyes they just put me in a spell. I can't see anyone or anything when I look at them. Like I said before. I'm not on earth when I look into them.

"Mrs. Aaron? Mrs. Aaron!" I was removed from my thoughts back to reality. The reality of Mrs. Samuels class. She's at least 110 and teaches history. And I hate her.

"Yes?"

"What year was George Washington elected as the first president?" That's easy. What are we covering. 5th grade history?

"1789 Mrs."

"That's correct. Now...." I didn't hear anything after that. I went back to my thoughts.

• Ashton's POV •

"Olivia. Can you count this for us please?" I asked trying not to look at Bryndell. Who was sitting next to Olivia. So it didn't really work. I've been thinking about her a lot. And whenever she's in class I just want to kiss her out of nowhere and just feel her touch.

But I can't have her touch. I can't have a relationship with a student. I can't date a high schooler. I could get any girl I wanted. I know I can. But I don't want just any girl. I don't want a girl that I picked up at the bar.

I want her.

"Was that correct Mr. Irwin?" Olivia spoke.

"Uh. Yes. It was. Now, everyone clap it together." I conducted them and they all did it correct.

"Okay. I'm going to pass out a new piece we are playing at our next concert. It's called Sheltering Sky." I picked this song because it sound like a song you would sing for a toddler when they have a nightmare. It has soft ballads and beautiful solos in it. The song sounds safe and welcoming. I love it.

After I passed it out to everyone and we played through it once. It was already time to pack up.

"Umm. Mr. Irwin can I speak to you again?" I heard a small voice behind me. I turned around to see Bryn standing there looking down. She looked up, biting her lip. God she's sexy when she does that.

"I actually have a meeting to get to. I'm so sorry. Maybe another day?" I said. I did have a meeting. But it wasn't for another 15 minutes. I just couldn't let anything happen.

"Oh. Okay." She grabbed her bag and we just stood there for a moment. I looked down at my watch as if checking the time. I wasn't.

"Ah. I've got to go. Sorry, bye." I patted her arm and pecked her lips, before realizing what I did. I was already out of the room and down the hallway. Fuck. Why did I do that. I hadn't ever done that before. I've wanted to. But I haven't. Fuck.

I got to the meeting room and only a few teachers were there. I sat my stuff down and grabbed my phone from my pocket. I texted Bryn. (I was suppose to delete her number. But I just couldn't.)

To- Bryndell

I'm so sorry about that. I don't know why I did that.

Two seconds later I got a reply.

From- Bryndell

It's okay. No one saw. No one was in the room. We can just not worry about it. And try to have things like that not happen anymore.

To- Bryndell

Okay. It won't happen again.

She didn't respond. She didn't need to. We don't need to text. We don't have any sort of relationship, except teacher and student. I put my phone back in my pocket. And the meeting started to start.

About halfway into the meeting. My phone started to buzz. Everyone looked towards me.

"Umm. Excuse me one moment please." I walked out of the room and looked down at my phone. It was Bryn.

"Hello?" I said in a whisper.

"I knew you would answer."

"What?" I turned my head to look down the hallway. There she is. Standing there, her phone pressed to her ear. I hung up. She ran to me and jumped into my arms. I pressed my lips against hers. Feeling the sparks again.

"Never leave me."

"I won't." I whispered into her ear. Holding her, not caring who saw us. I was with my love. And that's all that matters.

"Mr? Excuse me?" A hand waved in front of my face. It was Olivia's hand. I was daydreaming. None of that happened. God I hate it when I do that.

"Yes Olivia. What do you need?"

"I was wondering if I could maybe have a solo in the next concert?"

"I'll think about it."

"Okay." She left the room. I slumped down at my desk. This is not good. I can't be feeling these things about my student.

A/N

I'm actually pretty proud of this chapter. But, I'm sorry if you think it's short. I tried to make it long. But. Yea. I don't really know what to say except.
