Clandestine Love | B. Cumberbatch

recap

"Well.. Don't underestimate me, Professor. I am more than what you think I just am." I grinned at him as he nodded. "I will definitely not underestimate you from now on. Anyways class, what she said was exactly the answer I'm looking for." m
Most of the students in the class clapped, Sienna replied, grinning. "That's my girl!" I smirked at her.

"That's it for today, I'm dismissing you early." Professor Cumberbatch said as he made his way to the front desk. I fixed my belongings as the student start the file out of the classroom, talking and gossiping about their thoughts of the new professor.

Professor Cumberbatch stared at you as he sat on the velvet swivel chair in the front.

"Except for you."

"I hope you're in not muuuch.. trouble, Andrea." Sienna patted my back as she waved. "Meet me at the university cafeteria, alright?" Sienna smiled as she got her turquoise bag and left.

I went to his desk as I raised one of my eyebrows up. He folded his arms as he leaned on his chair, staring intently at me. "Before you go home, come back to my classroom. Don't forget about it."

"That's bullshit, you can simply tell me right now what you need... but sure." I chuckled as I shrugged it off and walked away, catching up to Sienna on her way to the university cafeteria for lunch. I reached the cafeteria and searched the area for Sienna. It was a huge place but I already found her, near to the spot where we always stay for lunch. I smiled to myself as I headed over the table. Ethan, our other friend also joined us today for lunch. "Andrea! Come, we've got hot tea over here, Ethan." Sienna winked mischievously at Ethan and I chuckled in return. "You guys always have new chit chats and the latest gossips, completely not surprised."

"Hey Ethan, didn't know you would be here." I sat beside Ethan as I put down my bag. "Yeah, thought I wouldn't be joining you two here today as well, but apparently, our club meeting was cancelled last minute." Ethan explained as he took a bite of his food that, dare I say, smells really delicious. "I see, now i'm more hungry. Sienna, have you ordered yours?" I asked her as she responded, "Nope, not yet."

"Why haven't you gotten your lunch yet?"

"I was clearly waiting for you, Andi." She opened her backpack to get her wallet as I grinned. "Aww, that's sweet." I slapped her shoulder. "Ugh, of course." She laughed as I looked to Ethan. "Wait for us here, Ethan. We'll just be getting our food."

"Sure." Ethan smiled as he sipped from his cold beverage that was with his meal. We both got ourselves our lunch and headed back to the table where Ethan is still waiting, his pudding still left untouched. "Knew it. Of course, you would have a pudding with you." I let out a genuine chuckle over Ethan and his love for pudding. "That's unconditional love you have right there." Sienna remarked as Ethan glared at her as he rolled his eyes. "Real funny. Go eat your lunch already, I can hear you the sound of your stomachs rumbling." He scoffed as he grabbed the plastic spoon and started eating his chocolate pudding. "Alriiiight, Ethan." I mocked him. "Hah."

"So what's the 'hot tea' you both are talking about, eh? Is it about Amber's male strippers?" Ethan joked as he waited for us to tell the story. "I would wish it was about that. I mean, come on! That 'Daniel' dude was hot! Want to know more about hi-" Sienna enthusiastically responded, laughing as she waggled her eyebrows. "I don't think that was the tea." I rolled my eyes at Sienna. "Right, right. Guess what, Ethan?" She leaned forward to us. "What?"

"Our girl right here, Andrea, seriously just got three detentions with our new Professor!" Sienna laughed, impressed. "Too bad. I missed that class! Will definitely not miss the period tomorrow. I 've got to know who this new teacher is." Ethan flashes a grin as he looked at me. "You're such a troublemaker. Well at least you're in the rankings, all in one!"
