Let's Fly Together

(Juno's in the pic)

Juno's POV

I entered the class which Nessa was in. This class is a bit different from other classes, well aside from Nessa's in here, this class is a bit chaotic.

I was a bit dumbfounded learning that this is the star section of the sophomore year. Who would have guess, no one's really paying attention in class, except for those deans lister. Most of them, they are just paying attention on me, or on my body, especially those jocks at the back.

Glancing around the room, my eyes automatically landed on Nessa which I caught her looking into space.
She probably didn't notice that class is about to start.

I started to greet them a great morning.  I said it out loud more than the usual to catch everyone's attention. To my surprise, Nessa is still in her own world. I cleared my throat for a few times but she not coming back to earth at all.

Thinking about last night, I suddenly had the urge to call her in front of the class. She slept on me last night. She didn't even said her Goodnight before falling asleep.

Now then, shall we play a game??

I smirked writing some fill in the blank questions on the board after some discussions. This is from yesterday's topic so everyone should have an idea on the answers.

"Okay class, let's practice what we have learned from our lesson yesterday. So who wants to go to the board?" I announced

Pretending to want someone who would like to answer what's on the board, I scanned  the room with a smile. Glancing around, some raised their hand, and some avoided my gaze as usual.

"Cassidy, please come up to the board. " I addressed after clearing my throat

She didnt moved in her seat until Lehm slightly shaked her shoulder and whispered something.

She looked around a bit startled. She looks so lost, she probably just got back to herself. Cute. I want to pinch that cheeks of hers.

She stands up hastily and looks around like a lost puppy causing the class to erupt in laughter.

It made me feel bad as I know Nessa right now felt humiliated. And from that very moment I regret calling her name.

I felt her gaze making me look at her immediately. She had this confused aura with a bit frustrations in it. Oh dang, I messed up.

"Can you answer the questions on the board Miss Cassidy?" I asked calmly hoping she won't get mad at me

I didn't hear any response, instead she went out of her seat sighing. I started to flip the pages of the book infront of me as she started to walk her way on the board. I suddenly felt intimidated. God, I'm the teacher here, now I'm acting unprofessional.

I heard her sigh as she's writing the answers just a foot away from me.

"I'm sorry. " I mumbled as quiet as possible.

She didn't respond nor glance at me. Knowing her, I'm certain she just don't want her classmates to be having those suspicions about us. I waited for her to finish and made sure to make some contact when she goes back to her seat.

I simply grazed my fingers in her arms making her flinch as she made her way to the back of the room. I saw her smirking at her seat and something on me lit up.

I even forgot that the class is waiting for me to say something so I cleared my throat and started the discussions again.

That kid, she's turning me on with that plastered smirk in her face!
I need her to stay after class.

As I was explaining her answers on the board I saw her unlocking her phone. An idea pops in my head so I walked straight to her desk.

"Phone Miss Cassidy." I said in a commanding tone

I need to be convincing so that no one will question my behavior. And you know, using phone while class is still on going is against school rules.

She raised her eyebrows before handing me her phone. She looks a bit pissed as I walked back into my desk. Hope she's not that mad for calling her twice.

The lazy bell finally rings. I waited and made my way to the door waiting for the students to walk out.
That's when I felt an intense gaze near the door. I caught Mariah looking directly at me for not so comfortable seconds before looking at Nessa. She left immediately after that, to catch up with her friends. She's not a stranger to me, a quiet but smart ass type student. She's one of their top in academics,  and has this bitchy aura of hers. I also notice her and Nessa sometimes make those eye contact which bothers me everytime. I even thought she was the reason why Nessa can't focus on her studies.

One time I asked Nessa if she was her Ex or something which Nessa immediately denied. We never talk about her after that, I don't want her to think that I'm being jealous.

I shrugged my shoulders, brushing off my intuition. After locking the door, I drag myself to Nessa's desk who's now glaring at me.

"I'm sorry babe. I need that to make you stay after class. " I explained giving her my puppy eyes

Her eyes changed immediately.

"But You don't need to humiliate me you know. " she replied looking down

I reached for her hand trying to make up to her causing a jolt of electricity all through out my body. The affect of her in me, really.

" I'm actually upset, you slept on me last night." I said while rubbing the back of her hand with my thumb

I can hear her shaky breathing as she tries to lift her head meeting my gaze.

"I'm really sorry about last night. I'm just tired of practice. . . But, just to let you know, I miss this. " she said while blushing

She's just so cute when she's shy.

We agreed on slowing things down that's why we never flirted at school. But we sneak glances from time to time and text each other for our free period.

I miss this physical contact with her. The first and last time was a week ago, and this might makes me lose my self control. No, I can't, we can't. I shouldn't let this get ahead of me. I don't want to hurt her.

I let go of her hand and pace to unlock the door before I do things I'll probably regret. To my surprise, she came to me stopping just few inches away.

When did she got this much confidence?? Wow, This shy introvert girl who always sleeps in class. I asked myself controlling to breathe normally

My face is just inches away from her. If I slightly lean, our nose would be touching. I can even feel her breath and probably she can feel mine.

I unconsciously glanced at her lips before going back quickly to her eyes.

I can't think straight because the pull is too much.

"You should go now." I whispered

She didn't move on her track so I pleaded before I lose all my self control.

"Please go." I said looking at the door

She nodded but before she stepped back, she tacked some strand of my hair behind my ear.

"Goodbye Miss Juno" she emphasized as she walks out of the door.

I groaned hearing her calls me that. It turns me on.

"What a tease! " I muttered to myself sitting back to my chair

I smiled shaking my head as to how Nessa got a bit bold in just a span of a week. She's adorable when she's shy but sexy when making the first move.

I checked my phone and saw a message which made me frown.

"What a Perfect timing to ruin the moment. " I sighed facepalming

How can I tell Nessa about this?
