Our Little Secret (Rhett McLaughlin//TeacherXStudent)

#9

************************

Beli's POV

For the rest of the remaining class, I decide to ignore Queenie. Caleb would talk to me every so often but all it is, are the answer for questions in the booklet.

Queenie on the other hand was sleeping, with her head on the desk as saliva drops out of the crack of her lips.

The bells rings indicating that class has finished. Queenie flinches awake as she falls out of her seat.

Annnd that's my best friend....

"I think she had a bit too much" Caleb mutters.

"You think?"

<><><>

A few periods later, it was now time for my detention.

I've never had a detention before so I was feeling kinda nervous. I know I shouldn't feel this way but I do.

I walk in a class room where the detention was being held. There was only Mr McLaughlin in there.

"Hiya Mr McLaughlin" I greet as I take a seat near the door after dropping my bag next to me.

"Hey Beli" he says out of interest.

"I never said those things sir" I say since it was obvious to me that he was mad at me about that.

I've honestly never seen a teacher angry at a student that they basically show no interest. And me being the student and Mr McLaughlin as the teacher hurts me a lot.

"Sir...?" I ask since he didn't answer.

"You know I overheard your conversation with Queenie when I first taught you. Do you remember what she said"

I try to think;

"You are honestly so fucked up..." Queenie shakes her head thinking that I liked Mr McLaughlin, "maybe I should hook you guys up" she wiggles an eyebrow viciously.

"don't be silly" I told her.

"You know you want him" she giggled.

My eyes widens in embarrassment, I could even feel my cheeks burn.

"So you do remember" he smirks but then it vanishes. I turn even redder, "s-sir"

He scoffs, "how did you go from that to hating me?", he stands up and walks over to me. He was now standing in front of me.

"I-I-I" I clear my throat before looking up at him, "I never said that, she was h-" I stop myself from exposing Queenie.

"She was what?" He asks

"Nothing" I look down at my hands as I shake my head, "she wasn't feeling herself"

"I know, she was high wasn't she?"

I quickly look up at him, he smiles at my reaction.

"H-how did you know?" I ask.

"I'm not dumb, Ms Kameāloha"

"I could tell by the way her eyes were dilating" he continues.

"I've never realised..." I mutter.

"Stand up" he says harshly which caused me to slightly flinch.

"O-Okay" I slowly stand up, I loose the eye contact.

"Look at me"

I don't obey. He grabs my face and forces me to look at him. The cracks of his lips slightly pulls up.

"I really liked you Beli... honestly thought you were different from the other kids but it seems like you're just like the rest of them"

I stay silent. I mean what do I even say to that?

'Ayo I'm disgusted in myself as well, and so are my parents! Up top!'

Or,

'I tend to disappoint a lot of people...'

Anyways you get my point.

"See I'm right. You're not saying anything which means that you are like the rest of them. Bitchy, horny, jerks, ect"

"I'm actually not..." I squeak quietly. He didn't hear me but he knew I spoke.

"Get out" he growls.

"What?" I ask confusedly.

"Out. Off you go" He whips his arms to the door.

"B-but-"

"No buts, just get out" he says with no emotion.

I grab my bag and put it on. As I was about to leave I finally have the guts to say something, "I'm actually nothing like the others... plus, you're not the first person I have disappointed"

I expect an answer from him but since he didn't say anything, I leave.
