Teacher | Ashton Irwin

Eleven

It was last period on a Friday and of course, I was sat in sex education. Ashton had avoided eye contact with me for most this week, leading me to think that I've done something wrong. He said, "So today class, I have something a bit more exciting planned. I have organised a class trip."

The whole class groaned and he said, "Shut up. Since you all can't get along with each other, I have paired you up with someone you don't get along well with and you will have to do the pair activities together. You will also be spending 3 nights in a motel. You will be sharing a room with the person you're paired with." He held up small strips of paper and began handing them out, "These are your partners."

He skipped me out, not bothering to give me a partner. He handed out the permission slips and said, "get a parent or guardian to sign this. We leave first thing on Monday."

I asked Calum, "Who's your partner?"

"That fucking creep over there," he turned his head towards Jack. He said, "I'd rather shoot myself than be with him."

"Give him a chance," I smiled, "You might be wrong about him. He's actually a lovely person."

I sat for another half hour. Ashton lectured us about safe sex of course. The bell rang and everyone headed out the door. Jack walked over to me as I was still sitting at my table. "Do you want to walk home together?"

"Sure," I smiled, "I just need to talk to Mister Irwin first. Please wait outside for me?"

"I'm right outside the door," he smiled and walked out, closing the door after him.

Ashton looked at me and sternly said, "It's after school hours. The door is over there for-"

"Why don't I have a partner?" I interrupted.

He smirked and stood up. He walked over to my desk and handed me a piece of paper. I read it. I looked up at him and smiled, "You're my partner?"

"Yeah," he nodded, "I made this whole thing just for us."

"I'm ready. Well, I'll be ready for Monday night," I winked.

He smirked, "So you can please me? Thank God. You should probably get going. Your friend is waiting."

I smiled and walked out the door. Jack took my hand and led me out of the building. I loved being around him. There was no drama or anything, just talking.

**monday**

I looked out the window of the mini bus. Emma was sat beside me, freaking out about how she got Luke. I said, "You should totally fuck him in the motel."

"Just because I'm not a virgin, doesn't make me a slut," she giggled. She smirked and said, "But I would totally fuck him in a motel.

Our laughter was soon stopped when Mr Irwin walked into the aisle of the bus and said, "Miss Fox. Seat beside me. Now."

I walked up and sat beside him. His cold expression softened and a smile lit up his face. He whispered, "By the way, I can't be your partner for the partner activities but you're still staying with me at night."

"Who's my partner?" I asked.

He sighed, "Michael Clifford."

"Ashton," I whined, "I want it to be you." I played with his long fingers as his large hand sat on my thigh.

"I do too baby," he sighed, "But we can't."

"So unfair," I huffed.

He smirked and leaned over to me. His lips brushed lightly against my ear as he whispered, "I'll make up for it tonight."
