My Teacher's Secret | h.s

IV

"How was your drive home with Harry last night?" Niall looked at me smirking as we walked to the picnic tables outside for lunch.

"It was fine I guess. It was a little awkward considering he's my professor." I rolled my eyes as Niall and I sat down taking our lunches out of the bags.

I was still a little annoyed that Niall didn't take me home last night when he was the one that invited me to the party in the first place. I wasn't even at the party for an hour before Harry took me home and now I feel like it's going to be awkward today in class when he helps me with my essay.

"Harry is a good lad. I've known him for a while and if I didn't trust him taking you home last night I wouldn't of asked him in the first place." Niall took out his sandwich and started to eat it without even looking at me.

"It's not that I didn't trust him, it's the fact that he's my professor and if someone would've seen us I'm sure they would be questioning why I was with him late at night." Having this conversation is making me lose my appetite. I can only imagine the things people would say about me if they saw us.

"Anyways what was Professor Styles even doing at a college party?" I took my sandwich out of the ziplock bag and just started to pick at it. Just the thought of Professor Styles taking me home last night still makes me feel nervous. It was a bad idea but how else was I going to get home?

"Please don't call Harry Professor Styles in front of me, it's weird to hear you say that considering he's my friend." Niall chuckles shaking his head before taking another bite of his sandwich. It's like he doesn't care that Harry taking me home is inappropriate.. but I mean I could've said no too..

"Harry a.k.a. Professor Styles", Niall says sarcastically "is only 23 and just started working at this college last year. He's actually friends with a lot of the frat boys in this college and because he's so young and chill, no one cares if he parties with us plus if you would get to know him you would know that he's quite the party animal." Niall shrugs as he finishes his sandwich.

"Well no offense to your friend but isn't it quite inappropriate that a professor parties with a bunch of college kids?" I frown staring at Niall as he finally makes eye contact with me. It's also inappropriate that a student is kind of attracted to her teacher but he doesn't have to know that. This is just a crush, it'll go away soon..

"If you're wondering, Harry doesn't fuck anyone at the parties." My mouth instantly drops, I didn't expect Niall to say that and I sure as hell don't want Niall to think that that's what I think Harry does.. he could lose his job..

"So therefore I don't think it's inappropriate that he parties with us, plus every girl here is over the age of 18 and if he didn't have a FIANCÉ he could legally do whatever he wants." Niall playfully wiggles his eyebrows at me but it makes me nervous. He couldn't possibly think I have a crush on Harry right? I don't think I'm that obvious about it.

I didn't realize I started to blush at the thought of Harry being intimate with his students. Not like I would even have a chance or would even consider doing that since he's my professor. If my parents found out I had a crush on my teacher they would demand that I come back to America and my dad would cut my funds and not help me with living here anymore.

Niall starts to pack up his things and comes over to me and gives me a side hug before telling me he's got to go and meet up with some of his friends. I on the other hand didn't eat any of my lunch and I'm not even hungry anymore after this conversation.

I really need to get over this little crush I have on my professor. It's inappropriate and now that I know he's engaged, there's definitely no way he would ever have a crush on me as well. I mean sound ridiculous anyways for even thinking about him in that way so I know I just gotta push back my feelings and forget about him.

Even though that'll be hard to do considering after my next class I'll be all alone with him in his classroom..
