It's just a crush (student/teacher)

Chapter 21*

When I wake up it's already 12 pm. Why do I always oversleep the whole day? I check my phone to see that  I have one missing call and a message from Christian.

We really have to talk. Call me back when you're awake. I love you -C

I call him.

"Hi." I say.

"Hi." He says.

"Can you come over today? " he asks.

"Yes. What time?"

"Whenever you're ready. I'm at home all day."

"Okay. I'l text you when I'm on my way."

"Okay. See later."

"Bye." I hang up and make my way to bathroom. I take a shower and put some clean clothes on. Then I go downstairs to have some cereal for "breakfast".

"Good Morning. " my mom greets.

"Morning."I laugh.

"Where are you going? "

"Christian's, I forget something yesterday and I have a question about my homework anyway. " I lie.

"Oh okay."

When I finish my breakfast, I go back upstairs to put Christian's present in my purse along with my phone and some other stuff and then I take the bus to his apartment.
He already cleaned everything up when I arrived 20 minutes later. Nothing in his apartment looks like there was a party last night. We sit down on the couch and I pull out his present. He unwraps the paper and has a cup in his hand, filled with sweets and a chocolate spoon for hot chocolate and a handmade gift card "for a dinner made by myself". He smiles and hugs me. It was kind of a last minute present. I didn't even knew his birthday before my Dad told us about the invitation.

"Thank you." he smiles.

"I said it's just something small."

"Well, I'm eager to see your cooking skills." he smirks.

"Don't be so sarcastic." We laugh. He suddenly stops and looks at me seriously.

"We really need to talk." He says sober.

"I shouldn't have said this on Saturday. I know that it was wrong and inappropriate. I don't know why I said this, it just came out of my mouth before I could think about it. I'm really sorry."

"Why didn't you tell me before?"

"What?" Know I'm confused. Does he mean that I'm a virgin or that I didn't apologize earlier?

"That you never had sex before." He says less loud. It's almost a whisper. Well that was obvious. I'm so dumb.

"We never got that far that it was necessary for you to know and I mean it's not so unusual to be a virgin with 18."

"If it happened before your birthday I could have go to jail." he says more to himself than to me.

"But it didn't and although our whole relationship is illegal, you could go to jail without having sex with me."

"I know. That's the problem."

"I thought we already discussed that or do you wanna break up again?"

"No, of course not. I love you, Lynn. You know that." I'm relieved. For a split second I was really scared that this would end - again.

"Than why is it such a big deal for you?"

"Because.. because you are so inexperienced and I was worried, I don't even know why. You didn't seem to be so innocent." he mumbles and looks at his feet.
