I'm gonna get you (Robert Downey Jr. fanfic)

- "Work on your lies", -

It was now nearly 6 a.m as we arrived Emmas house. Of course we didn't talk that much in the car...actually we didn't talk at all. It was just us breathing and his muttering when other drivers provoked him. Although I wished we talked about what has happened, considering the fact that I'm still his student and he's my teacher. Let that set in.

"So, uhm, we're gonna see us today..", he broke the silence, apparently fighting with the words he should say. But I could really understand him, that situation is just as awkward as two boys dancing to barbie girl.

I nodded, again biting my lip. It was a bad habitat I've got from my mother and I tried to stop it and it really worked...but as soon as Mr. Downey came in the picture everything changed.

"Have a nice morning, see you later", I got out of the car, taking a last look back and seeing him half-smiling at me. It didn't feel like one of his warm smiles, so I just shrugged it off and made my way silently to Emmas Front door.

that didn't work and Emma shoved an broom up my ass.

No, i'm just kidding. Her parents were already up though, so I had to think of an excuse I could say. Let's just say...I went for a walk. Yeah.

They opened the front door, furrowing their brows and looking at my legs. Shit, I forgot that I wore my pyjama pants!

"Zoey, are you okay?", Ems Dad asked, grabbing my arm and pulling me inside the warm house. Comforting warmth and a loving family, Em's had the life I wanted. but she really deserved it, she had a lovely character and she looked really great. Em's was the type of girl that can't stay mad at someone to long, she's always funny, hyper, sometimes even real helpful. She was the best friend I've always looked for.

Em's mom made me a cup of coffee and a sandwich.  "Where were you? You look exhausted if I'm being honest", she sighed, sitting down next to me. I took a sip from the coffee, letting the hot liquid pour down my throat and warming me up. Coffee is my boyfriend, that's for sure.

"I took a walk. Didn't feel well..", I tried my best to come up with a lie but something telled me that she knew exactly that I was lying. Suddenly I heard Em's loud and fast footsteps coming..or should I say stomping? down the stairs.

"Mum, dad, did you saw-", She looked at her parents then back at me, gaping her mouth a little bit and tilting her head to the side.

"Did we saw what?", Em's dad asked, looking at his newspaper in full concentration. "Nevermind. Zoey, could you come up please?", I nodded, taking the last bite of my sandwich and wiping my hands on a napkin aswell as my mouth. I smiled at Em's mum, gesturing her a thank you.

As I went upstairs I felt Emmas gaze on my back, not really comfortable. Especially if she's got the deathstare.

"Where were you?!", she almost screamed and I held her mouth shut with my hand. If she would attract attention from her parents I would have to do a bigger explanation than I now will do.

"Robert send me an text yesterday..well, tonight actually", I pulled out my phone, searching for the message he sent me.

I really didn't know how I would explain that we almost had sex and I even liked it. If you're hearing it from someone else it's just plain wrong. If someone would tell me I'm falling in love with my teacher soon, I'd probably laugh at them and just shrug it off, but little did I know that it could actually happen. To me.

She looked at the text message then back at me, confusion written all over her face. Dear god, here come's the story of my life...

As I finished she was sitting there, mouth wide open and her eyebrows raised, probably almost touching the ceiling.

"Why did you go though?", she asked, trying to catch all the drool that escaped her mouth during the story.

I breathed out, not knowing how to respond. I did it because...I wanted to? Because I love him? Because I was curious?

"I don't know actually. It's just me and my stupid self", she looked down and then at the clock, her eyes widening. I looked at the clock too and couldn't believe my eyes. We had to be at school in 10 minutes!

The classes were boring and I knew all the answers. But the strange feeling in my stomach grew and grew as I knew that my last class was with Mr. Downey. And it was maths! That's good. I'm gonna have a breakdown actually. No, I'm going to die here and then. No, I'm just gonna send myself to china and start living as a..homeless....cat.

Em's was at my side the whole Time, telling me everything will be fine and bla bla bla, I didn't even listen anymore cause she repeated herself which got on my nerves. I went to my locker, putting the books away I didn't need and grabbed the books I needed. 

Somebody should tell teachers that we don't even need that much books, I mean, seriously? So many books and at the end of the year we're not even through with it? Familiar voices pulled me out of my thoughts and I closed my locker, making my way to the source of the voices. I couldn't believe my eyes as I saw who stood there, talking with Mr. Downey.

"Maybe..detention will help?", she smirked, trying to lean in, showing off her pushed up cleavage. Mr. Downey was concentrated on the books he had in front of him though and shook his head. "Lucy Greene. Sit down and shut your mouth please...already...", I giggled silently at the last part, knowing she was really hard when she couldn't stop speaking. Like the birds in the morning she just opened her mouth and couldn't or didn't want to close her mouth. I stepped in the classroom, half-smiling at Mr. Downey. He avoided my eyes, not even responding to my smile with his famous smile.

I sat down and waited for Em's to come but she didn't. Instead came in the guy that wad reading comics all the day. He wasn't the shy type of guy, he just didn't talk much but when he did, it was mostly about comics.

He was also very good looking, dark-brown hair, manly jaw, green eyes and the lips you would die for to kiss.

He sat down right next to me and smiled. I smiled back and looked back at the table, only to see Mr. Downey clenching his jaw as he looked at us.

I figured out that his name was Matty and that he had a Band and his favorite band was MCR, just like me.

Sometimes Matty would look at me and make silly faces or just show his tongue and I tried not to snort because I'm the person that laughs about everything. As we had to do some work, I felt Mr. Downey right behind me, leaning forwards and putting his face right next to my face, his hand brushing my arm. "Do you understand this, Zoey?", Mr. Downey asked, looking at me directly in the eyes, his cologne dancing in my nose. Matty leaned in to us, smiling at me and then at Mr. Downey "yeah, I explained everything. She knows what do to",

Mr. Downey clenched his jaw and his hands rolled into fists.

"Oh, she knows what to do? That's great", he mumbled, making sure that nobody expect me and Matty heard that.

The class ended really fast and I asked myself where Em's went. I mean I talked to her before going to my locker before class and now she magically disappeared? Maybe she went home...hopefully. Me and Matty were the last that went out of the classroom, so we had to clean the floor and board. Mr. Downey didn't even say thank you or anything like that, he just had his feet up on his desk and was browsing something in his pc.

Two can play that game.
