My Twin Professors

Chapter 8: Getting Accustomed

--River's POV--

      Our lips connect and I literally feel sparks fly from them.

      Ryker makes no effort to deepen it, and neither do I. There's no reason for either of us to do so. Yeah, taking it slow has basically gone down the drain, but maybe just...slower. I like it. I'll just go with the flow and see what happens. 

      After a few seconds he leans back, taking his hands away from my cheeks where they had been resting and placing them on the counter to hold himself up. He lets out a sigh and his eyes cloud over, probably fighting with his wolf to keep control.

      "You make him go crazy darling, absolutely wild."

      "I'm sorry..." I say blushing making Ryker chuckle.

      "Never be sorry darling, you have no reason to be." He says placing his hand back on my cheek using his thumb to stroke my already blushing self.

      I smile as he smirks, making me giggle and him take some steps backwards. He moves all three plates to the table just as Hunter makes his way downstairs from the loft. He was only up there for like...ten minutes. Guys take like no time to get ready.

      "Smells great, we should eat so you guys can get ready." Hunter says lifting me from the counter and carrying me over to a seat at the large wooden table.

      Hunter sits at the head of the table, with me in the chair to his left and Ryker right next to me. It's a comfortable silence as we all eat, then Ryker excuses himself to go take a quick shower. It's about 5:30 when he leaves, and I take the initiative to take all of the plates and begin to wash them in the sink when Hunter goes to the bathroom.

      Soon I feel a presence behind me and then Hunter grabs my hips softly. Again, it's not sexy at all...it's just warm and nice and romantic. He turns me around and I boop him on the nose with my soapy hand. He chuckles, reaches behind me into the soapy water, and returns the gesture keeping eye contact the whole time.

      I unintentionally bite my lip, making a low grumble form in his chest,

      "Oh fuck it..." He says and then fully leans in and connects my lips with his.

      Again, it doesn't go any further than how it is right now. A normal, kind, sweet kiss. Just like Rykers. I melt into the kiss, feeling my legs become jelly underneath me. Hunter catches me, holding me up with one hand on my waist.

      Much to soon the kiss ends, and his eyes cloud over as Rykers did. He has to fight with his wolf too. He has to keep dominance.

      "Wow, and I was here thinking I was going to take it slow with you sweetie..." He says resting his chin on the top of my head.

      "I was thinking the same thing...and then I thought, why not just go with the flow." I reply making us both laugh.

      All of a sudden we hear the bathroom door open and close, followed by Ryker yell that I can get into the shower. They want to leave by 6:20 and it's 5:45. That's plenty of time, and I'm not sure why they left me so much of it to get ready. Maybe they are just trying to get a feel for how long I take, or maybe they just don't take that long. Either way, I make my way upstairs to shower.

      Ryker must be in his closet since that door is closed, but the bathroom is open. I walk in and feel the welcoming warmth from Ryker's shower. I look over and see a pair of my own black leggings and either Hunter or Ryker's plain white sweatshirt laying on the counter. There is also a matching black lace bra and pantie set that I remember being in my wardrobe, but barely ever wearing since it was kind of expensive. My family has always had money, but I never liked spending it on stuff like clothes...apparently Hunter and Ryker don't care.

      I quickly shower with the stuff they left for me in the shower, using the rose scented shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. I love roses and they must too since they obviously bought it for a reason. They must have just had it in their cupboards, but I don't really care why they just have the soaps.

      I get out, dry off with the soft teal colored towel provided for me, and then brush my teeth while the towel is wrapped around me. They had a new toothbrush that I used and then I was able to use their toothpaste. There is some lotion near the outfit they picked out for me that I put on, it also slightly smelling of roses but not overwhelmingly. It's nice and refreshing.

      Finally I get dressed and brush my hair with the blue hairbrush that was on top of the clothes they gave me to wear and then I use the hairdryer they plugged in for me. I exit the bathroom and grab my bag that was in the corner, then I head downstairs. I spent 15 minutes in the bathroom, which is a pretty good time for me. It's normally like 20 minutes but I'm happy I was able to cut it down.

      I am met with both guys sitting on the couch watching TV. I sit in between them, putting my bag on the ground in front of me. Soon, the alarm on Hunter's phone goes off as the clock hits 6:20 and we leave for school. We get there, after stopping to get some coffee, at around 6:45-6:50. I have like twenty minutes until my first class, which is in a different building on campus. Both Hunter and Ryker's classes start in thirty minutes so they both offer to walk me to class.

      They do this, dropping me off as I unwillingly say goodbye. They walk back to their building so they can start their first class and I go into my class. It drags on for what feels like days, but soon we are dismissed. Now I have like thirty minutes until Hunter's class, but his gets released in five. I take the time to grab a water from a food truck, but then walk to Hunter's building and into his class as everyone is leaving.

      After about twenty-five minutes his class starts, him making me sit in the front middle. I'm actually interested in this class which definitely helps me stay focused rather than daydreaming about the things I want Hunter to do to me at his des-

      Nope, if I go there Delia will come out at full force. She already wants to, but is holding back because she knows that it won't end well for me. She's cooperating much more today since I'm giving into my mate instincts, and I appreciate her doing that. It actually means a lot.

      As class goes on I actually learn a lot and I'm happy I was able to focus. Hunter walks me to Ryker's class, as it is my next one, but he has to leave right away to get to work on tomorrows lesson plan. Ryker's class starts in like five minutes anyways so I'm not too upset about it...even though I want him to stay.

      Ryker smiles at me as I sit in the same seat as yesterday...the front middle. Right where he wants me. He begins his lesson and I have a little trouble following. I hate history and have a feeling Ryker is going to have to help me with some of the assignments. I guess I'm lucky that I can ask him for help, but I don't want people to think I just get grades because I'm the professors mate.

      Anyway, he assigns us a timeline for homework tonight. It's similar to the one from yesterday, but it focuses on World War One events. I will need his help because he wants a lot of detail...like a lot.

      I guess I'll have to worry about that when I get home.

      To my new house.

      Where I live.

      With my twin mates.

      Who are Alphas.

      And my professors...
