Breaking Rules

19.

The rest of the week past quickly, it was Friday lunch time and I was sitting with Amie in the cafeteria since Thalia let me have 5 minutes of detention time to get food, but I just used it for a quick catch up with my redhead friend.

"Harper!" I zoned back into reality after apparently daydreaming, and gave Amie an apologetic smile.

"Sorry, what were you saying?" I asked my friend who was giving me a funny look as if she knew what I was thinking.

"You've been doing that a lot recently, anything on your mind?" She asked with a smug look on her face.

"I have no idea what you're talking about Amie." I began lying but knew she could see right through me ad decided to fess up. "Fine, to be honest with you, I'm horny as fuck. I haven't had sex in like 2 months and I guess I'm struggling." I confessed.

"I knew it. Why don't you just go to a bar and find a hot girl?" 

"Because... I'm just, infatuated with Thalia. It's as if no one compares, it's weird and it's messing with my head."

"You honestly, need to confess how you feel to her to get closure, one way or another."

"I know, I know. I've got to go now actually for detention so I'll try today." I told my friend as I got up from my seat. My friend gave me a wave goodbye and got up to sit with some of her art friends as I walked towards my favourite teacher's classroom.

I made it to her classroom for our last detention of the week. Josh had joined us in every detention and the week had been pretty hectic with homework so we hadn't had a chance to have one of our talks.

"You got any plans for the weekend?" Thalia asked me a couple of minutes into our time together, keeping her eyes on her computer as she completed whatever work she was doing.

"Nope, soccer matches were the only thing I had on Saturday's and I know that we wont have one for another couple of weeks. As for parties there's barely any and they're pretty shitty these days." I told her, resting her my chin on my hands. "Are you gonna be up to much?"

"My brother was promoted in his job so he's been moving his stuff into a new flat which is nearer to my house, he's off on Saturday so we'll probably just chill out at mine." She mimicked my position after she spoke.

"Cute, that'll be nice. I didn't know you had a brother."

"Yeah, he's my twin. I have a sister as well she's like 30 now." She spoke about her family rarely, since it would probably be considered inappropriate but I wanted to know everything about her.

"I like learning things about you." I spoke before being able to stop myself.

I noticed a blush rise to her cheeks and a smile curl at the corners of her lips. 

"Stop." She said, trying to be stern but simultaneously letting the smile take over her face.

"Stop what?" I tormented with a smile of my own.

"Stop being so nice." My teacher said with a sigh as she leant back in her chair resting her head back, closing her eyes.

"Why? Do you want me to be horrible instead?"

"No obviously not, just. Uhhh-" I didn't want to stress her out with whatever she was battling with in her head but I was beginning to get frustrated with what was going on in my head. 

"Okay, I'm gonna speak my mind which I'll probably regret but I've got a lot to confess." My heart was racing and my palms began to sweat but I looked into her eyes as she made eye contact with me again as if I had all the confidence in the world.
