Mr. Mendes

4

It was the end of the day and sadly, I was making my way to detention with Nate by my side. "Hey, I'm sorry you to detention because of me, that want my intention at all." Nate said softly. "What do you mean? It was not your fault at all, Mendes was just being a dick!" I said rolling my eyes. "Okay, you sure your not mad?" "Absolutely positive Natey." I said playfully. "Oh my god you know I hate that nickname!" Nate said scrunching his brows as we walked in Mendes' door, "oh but that's why I love it!" I said chuckling. "Last time I checked there is no talking in detention." Mendes said in a dark tone, I'm not gonna lie and say that it didn't send chills down my spine, because believe me, it did. "Y-yes si-sir" I stuttered out, suddenly feeling nervous under his intense angry gaze. "You" he pointed to Nate "-will sit over there." He said bitterly pointing to the very back of the classroom, "and you" He said pointing to me "will sit right here" he said as he pointed to the desk right in front of his, in the very front of the classroom. I rolled my eyes, suddenly annoyed at the fact that he made me and Nate sit as far away from each other as possible in the small classroom. "What exactly are supposed to do in here. Sir." I stayed sarcastically "Do you want us to write lines saying "I will not walk with my friends to class because my teacher says that it's not okay" or do we need to do something else." I stated my patience wearing very thin with the man in front of me. His face grew red and his eyes darkened in anger, "Ms Lynn, I will not except this kind of behavior, it seems like you will be here another week, so you can just clear your schedule after school for the next three weeks because you better believe everyday will be spent here." He seethes and I mumble something off along the lines of "this is bullshit." He cups his ears and says "huh, I didn't hear you, what did you say?" "Nothing!" I say focusing my eyes on the desk.
Detention passed fairly quickly after that simply because I didn't dare say a word to him since he was obviously pissed off about something. Although, if I'm being honest seeing him pissed off was kind of hot, scratch that not kind of hot, very hot. I began to prepare myself for what would happen tonight, it being it was his first night staying over to "look after me" as my mom would say. I just hoped that it wouldn't be awkward for the next two weeks. Then again maybe two weeks with him will make me hate him less, but if I'm being honest with myself I didn't hate him, I hated my self for liking him because he is a teacher and it was wrong. My thoughts were suddenly interrupted by his voice "Nate your detention is over, Jessica you still have an hour so you better get comfortable." Nate walks past me and mouths "good luck" I roll my eyes playfully as a response as he walks out of the classroom chuckling. As soon as Nate is fully out of the door Mendes stands up and make his way over to my desk, which wasn't very long considering the fact that he sat me in the desk directly in front of his. "So I was thinking that we could get started on the study lesson now." He says as if he wasn't pissed off at me literally thirty minutes ago. "Why not" I say with an annoyed sigh. He sits down beside me and looks at me with a sympathetic look on his face "Look, I know I've been hard on you but I just want to see you reach your full potential." He says softly. "I know, but can't you just relax a bit, your kind of being an, excuse my language, dick." "I know and I'm sorry, let's just focus on your grades right now and let it go." He says and I nod and reach down to grab the books out of my bag. "Does this mean that my three weeks of detention is shortened?" I say hopefully, "Don't push it." He says sternly. I groan getting out the papers I needed to study.
We studied for about an hour until my detention was over and then we headed over to our cars which were ironically parked next to each other. My small hand me down suv from my mom and his large matte black Jeep Wrangler parked next to it, jesus even his car is hot, I quickly got into my car uttering a quick "see ya" before driving off in the direction of my house. I got home pretty quick and then went to my room, Mendes wasn't going to be here until later so I had a few hours of alone time. I watched YouTube for a longer time then I would like to admit and then got into the shower for like forty five minutes. Don't judge, I like to think in there. After all of the hot water was gone I reluctantly stepped out of the shower and got dressed in my pajamas which consisted of a large t-shirt and some pretty short pajama shorts. I headed down stairs to fix some dinner when I'm stopped dead in my tracks to see Mendes sitting on my couch, with his bags next to him, just staring at me. "Sorry, I thought you weren't coming until later." I said nervously. "U-uhm yeah I am a bit e-early." He said sounding nervous. Why was he so nervous all of the sudden? "T-thats fine just, uhm, make yourself at home, I was gonna fix something to eat would you like anything?" I said nervously coming to the realization that I wasn't wearing a bra, which I internally face palmed myself for. "Actually, an we order pizza, I've really been craving pizza today." He said hopefully. "Yeah, that's fine my mom left me a decent amount of money so we can order pizza." "Nonsense a gentleman could never let a beautiful lady pay for anything." He said cheekily and then winked walking out the door to order the pizza. Holy shit did he just wink at me, what am I getting myself into, more importantly was he just flirting with me?
