If Lost, Return to Babe

🍫

Gulf was on his way to Professor's room struggling with the questions inside of his head. He decided to go to the rest room first and wash his face because he knew that he looked pale. He was a good student until this time actually no, he was a perfect student. He always studied his lessons and exams on time and he never failed any classes. The reason why he didn't do the essay was very stupid and simple, he just forgot. Gulf also couldn't believe himself when this sentence was formed in his head. If it was stupid in his brain how would it sound when he said it out loud?
Gulf washed his face with the cold water to bring himself to his senses then went out the bathroom. He tried to walk as slowly as possible, he wanted some more time. But he knew that he couldn't escape it anyways so
when he finally arrived at the office, he sighed deeply and knocked the door gently.
Mew heard the soft knocks on his door and said "Come in." with a cold tone in his voice. When Gulf walked in with a lot of worries on his eyes Mew said "You can sit here." while pointing the chair in front of his desk. Gulf walked in tiny and sat on it.
"Why did you want to talk to me in private?" said Gulf even he couldn't believe these bold words were coming out of his mouth. Mew stayed silent for a while and just looked at how Gulf behaved in front of him. Gulf looked so fragile in spite of his words, Mew was scared that he would hurt him. He didn't want that.
Mew's coldness melted away with the presence of the boy. "I thought that i shouldn't be scolding you in front of your friends, i'm sorry." said Mew. Gulf was in shock because it was just the opposite what he thought on his way. "Tell me the reason Gulf. Why didn't you do your homework even i said that i'll add points and it was important?"
Gulf put his head down looking like a child caught while eating chocolate without his mom knowing. He closed his eyes, clenched his fist beside her legs and looked up to meet professor's eyes "Will you judge me if i tell you the truth? If yes, i'll make excuses." he said and stared at his professor with pleading eyes that says please don't get angry with me. It was too much for Mew, the way this boy made him feel and the way he spoke to him.
"Just tell me the truth Gulf. I looked at your notes because it took so long for you to get here. You are an amazing student so there has to be a reason." said Mew, but in his mind he thought that he shouldn't be this soft. Gulf took a deep breath and said "Please don't laugh at me but the reason i didn't bring the homework was me had forgetten about it completely. I'm so sorry, I know this reason is not something acceptable but i was really having a hard time last week. My father lost his job and told me to quit college and start working for the sake of my family. I'm in my last year and I really don't want to quit school. I still have this struggle, please forgive me this time Professor. I promise that it won't happen again." in one breathe, and added "as long as i manage to stay here." with a sad tone in his voice.
Mew couldn't help himself, he couldn't resist the feeling of wanting to be closer to this young boy who tells the biggest matter in his life to him. He knew that it was not easy to open up yourself to a teacher because he was a student once. Although this was not the case, he knew that it's not empathy he felt, it was sympathy. He wanted to hug him but he just sat the chair in front of Gulf, touched his knees with his one hand while the other hand hold is chin and made him stare into his own eyes.
They were both looking directly into each other's eyes. Mew said "It's okay, everything is going to be okay." and a teardrop made its way from Gulf's shiny brown eyes to Mew's hand which is softly holding his chin. Gulf pulled his looks away immediately and swept his tears with his hands. He got flustered because of the vulnerability he had in front of his professor. Mew kept himself calm, pushed the feeling to hug him deep inside and he said "I want your essay tomorrow on my desk." and Gulf looked at him like he was 5 and Mew was giving him some candy. He got so excited from the fact that he got a second chance for the essay, he hugged his professor tightly and said "Thank you, thank you, thank you."
Mew's heart skipped a beat, he shouldn't be attracted to his student but Gulf was making it too hard to resist. Mew lightly put his both hands on Gulf's slim waist, which fitted perfectly in his hand, pulled him off of himself slowly but not too much. Their eyes linked again and Gulf felt his professor's warm breath on his skin. Now it was time for Gulf to blush until he became a tomato. His professor's hands on his waist felt like some kind of electricity was sended to his body, and them being so close was making Gulf to think about those lips kissing his lips.  Eveything was escalating too quickly for both of them. Sexual tension was real so they both felt overwhelmed by it and moved away from each other.
Mew said "You can go now." with zero enthusiasm in his voice because he wanted Gulf to stay longer.
But Gulf hurriedly went out of the office and Mew sat on his chair, took a deep breath and said to himself "What have you got yourself into?"
On the other hand Gulf was just standing still outside the door, not believing that the things happened earlier was real. He felt the need to talk to someone and he started to walk fast to the yard.
When he arrived, his eyes searched for his best friend Mild. Then he saw his annoying but loyal friend sitting at the back of the yard he started to run. He was breathless at the time he arrived making Mild eyes wider.
"Well easy captain, is someone chasing you?" said Mild with a smile on his face. Gulf threw a little punch to Mild's arm and said "Something weird happened Mild, something really weird happened."
