The Professor's Son

Risque - Part 21

The next morning you woke up at the crack of dawn feeling confused, distraught and angry, more at yourself than Mark. Were your feelings for Jaehyun genuine? Did you make the right choice in a partner? Why did you miss Mark so much?

Wild thoughts crossed your mind, like maybe you should drive to the airport right now and hop on the same plane to Canada as Mark. But you knew that your place was here in this city, and you were so tantalisingly close to finishing your studies for the year.

As you made a cup of coffee your head swirled and you became dizzy as the harsh memories from last night flooded back into your mind. You could clearly remember Mark's lips against yours...and the flowers he had left you in the car.

You better get them now before they wilted in the bright morning sun.

Throwing on a shawl and some sandals you raced down the stairs to your car parked out on the streets. You opened the passengers side door and examined the flowers. The leaves were a bit brown and dry at the edges, but other than that the golden yellow petals hadn't been damaged.

You picked the roses up and your jaw dropped at what was underneath them. You saw a condom packet, torn open on the seat of the car. Poking it cautiously you noticed that the condom that would have been inside was missing.

Suddenly, you realised that you had forgotten to lock the car last night and someone could have easily broken in and tampered with the vehicle. But why leave an empty condom packet, but steal nothing? You prayed that you hadn't also forgotten about losing your virginity to Mark.

Your phone buzzed in your pocket. Peering down at the caller ID you saw it was Jaehyun.

"Hey babe, I'm just around the corner. Are you ready to go?" his voice sounded cheery and chirpy over the phone.

"Morning Jae. To tell you the honest truth I haven't got ready yet! I just woke up."

"That's okay, I don't mind waiting for you."

"Okay sweet, just remember to buzz me so I can let you upstairs."

"Yeah sure, see yah!"

You quickly ran up to your apartment, forgetting all about the open condom packet and began tidying up the place. You placed the roses in a nearby vase, hoping they would nicely decorate the messy area. The last person you had over was Jaehyun, on that fateful night where you confessed your feelings for each other.

A familiar ringing sound came from the intercom. It was Jaehyun!

You let him up and waited in anticipation. Seconds later a hasty knock reverberated throughout the apartment. To your delight it was indeed Jaehyun. You opened the door and he stood there.

"Y/N!" He squealed in delight, a big grin covered his face as he had held his arms outstretched, "Come give me a big ole hug!"

You gladly obliged and squeezed him. He hugged you back and rested his chin on your head. He gave your forehead a gentle kiss as your peered up into his beautiful onyx coloured eyes. You couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of love as he held you in his arms like a precious flower.

"You look beautiful." Jaehyun cooed lovingly.

"Really? Even with my messy hair and no makeup on?" you questioned, unconvinced by his sweet talk.

"Of course, I like this version of you the best. O'natural baby." he giggled at his own stupid joke and you couldn't help but do the same.

You pecked him on the cheek, making his ears turn pink, "So where are you taking me this morning?"
