Love Isn't Always A Fairy Tale {Teacher/Student Romance}

Chapter 18- Sleepover Pt. 3- Payback's A Bitch

Ethan’s POV*****************

“Stop! Stop! Just stop, what the hell?” She yells at me, jumping off the bed. She stands in front of me, her face full of anger. I can still see the lust that remains in her eyes, though. I laugh re-buttoning my pants.

“What is it Skylar? You can dish it but you can’t take it?” I ask, as I finish buckling my belt, and pick my shirt off of the ground, and put it back on. She looks at me, all the anger vanished from her face. Now all that’s left is confusion.

“What are you talking about?” She asks, and I shake my head.

“You can’t play the player baby.” I tell her, and I smile as I watch the blush make its way onto her face. She’s so cute when she blushes. Stop it Ethan.

“I...I… W… Wasn’t.” She stutters, looking at the ground.

“Please, Skylar. Don’t try to lie to me. It doesn’t work. I’m immune to bull-shit.” She looks up at me, her face flaming. I can’t help the smile that makes its way onto my face.

“I was just playing. I didn’t think you’d try to take it seriously! I can’t believe you were seriously fixing to take off your pants, oh my god!” She yells at me, pacing a little. I laugh, and walk up to her. I place my hands on her shoulders to keep her from moving.

“I never took you seriously, and I was never actually going to take my pants off.” She looks up at me, shock all over her face.

“What? You did all that stuff though. You took off your shirt, and had your belt undone. You were on top of me. If you never took me seriously what the hell was all of that?” She asks, crossing her arms across her chest. I smile mischievously, as I lean down to whisper in her ear.

“Payback’s a bitch isn’t it?” I ask, and the look on her face was priceless. Her normally beautiful green eyes, were full of anger and embarrassment.

“Ethan that’s so mean! I hate you!”

“Don’t hate the player baby, hate the game. You started it. I just finished it. Now come on, let’s go downstairs and watch a movie.” I tell her, turning and walking towards her bedroom door.

“I don’t want to watch a movie with you.” She tells me, pouting.

“Skylar come on, please. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have done all that, but I couldn’t help it.” She looks at me, and I can see a faint smile on her face.

“I know. It was my fault too. It’s just you looked so cute when you got embarrassed. I should have known better than to try that with you. I just can’t believe you were messing around when you done all that. I thought you were being serious.”  I couldn’t miss the, almost sad, undertone in her voice. Maybe these feelings weren’t entirely one-sided?

“Would it make you feel better if I told you that part of me was serious? All of it might not have been bull. Now put on something more comfortable, grab your pillow and a blanket and come downstairs. You can stay down there with me.” With that I turned and walked out of the room. Leaving Skylar standing there mouth wide open.

Skylar’s POV***********************

What did he mean by that? Part of me was serious, it wasn’t all bull? What the hell? I sit down on my bed, trying to wrap my head around all of this. I am even more confused now. I just keep seeing Ethan lying on top of me, shirtless.

How bad does it make me sound if I say that I didn’t want to stop him from taking off his pants? I let out a groan, and bury my face in my hands. He’s my teacher, he’s my teacher. My mantra for some reason isn’t working anymore. I need someone to tell me what to do. I grab my bag from the end of the bed, and take my cell phone out. I hit speed dial 3, and call Rae. She answers on the 3rd ring.
