It was the start of a new week, a new teacher arriving to your school, catching you by surprise because it was none other than Sarah Paulson. You were 17, lived with your parents, whom you rarely saw, and worked at a little coffee shop in the town...
Stay after class? Why would she want to see me? Maybe she was going to send me to the principal? I wipe the thoughts from my head as I look up to see the class empty, Ms. Paulson standing in front of me. This is it, this is where she bans me from her class, where I am not able to continue this course for sexual harassment. My mind is clouded with thoughts, not really thinking straight as she shuts the door after the last student left.
"Well, Miss. Y/N I think you know what the topic of this little meeting will be about." She pulls a chair by my desk again as I look to her, sighing as I only nod.
"Ms. Paulson, please don't kick me out. I need this class and this is the only option for the morning class. I-It wont happen again. I really don't know what I was thinking." The words spilled out of my mouth as I catch myself, stopping as I bite my lip, feeling her hand on my cheek.
I'm a little shocked, softly leaning into her hand as I let out a sigh of relief. "I'm not going to turn you into the principle, and I'm not kicking you from the class. I just wanted to talk to you about it. I want to make sure you understand that it cant happen again."
I only nod, sitting up straight as I think. Why would she give you another chance? I reach down into my bag, grabbing a little slip of paper as I jot something down, slowly handing it to her. "Come to this coffee shop after school, hand them this sheet of paper after you order."
She looks, reading over it as she thinks to herself. I had written her the address to the coffee shop I work at, hoping that I could secretly get her a coffee as a thank you for not kicking me out. She puts it in her purse and smiles as I stand, grabbing my bag off the floor as I smile.
"Ms. Paulson, if I may, I need to get going. I have to prepare for my job." I sigh as she nods, "I'm sorry about what I've done, and I swear it wont happen again."
"It's ok, Y/N. Have a good rest of the day," She puts the chair she sat in back where it goes, heading back to her desk.
" You too, Ms. Paulson." I say, smiling as I walk out of her class.

I got home after stopping for gas and food at the local gas station. I get out of my vehicle, going to the front door as I unlocked it, being slowly greeted by an empty house and the soft music from the radio my parents left on constantly. Most of the times that I came home from school, i was alone. I didn't mind it. It gave me time to myself, which I enjoyed. I sat on the couch, putting my bag down as I turn on the tv, still having a while before I had to go to work.
I look to the clock, it showing 2:30pm . I moved the blanket that I was cuddled to and looked around for my phone. I stand as I find my phone on the table, making my way up the stairs as I look around the hall, heading to the third door on the right- my room. I set my phone on the bed as I sigh, closing the curtain to my window as I sigh. I dig in the closet for my work uniform, pulling the black barista shirt out along with some black jeans and a small black belt.
I pull my hair into a ponytail after getting dressed, pulling my shoes on downstairs as I look around. After making sure i have everything, I lock the door as I go to my vehicle and get in it. I start the engine with a sigh as i back out the driveway, going towards town as i look to the clock once more. 2:50pm. I was most likely going to be late, but I didn't care. I may only work in a café, but I highly dislike my boss. He's a prick, and slightly perverted. I notice the way he looks over the workers here, including me, almost always me. There are a couple females who work here, but today it was only Jacob, David, Sam, and me. I was pretty good friends with most of the staff, so there hasn't been much trouble between me and the staff. I was rushing around the cafe, taking orders and serving drinks. I go behind the counter as I start to ring up the orders, seeing someone in my peripheral vision walk up to the counter.
"Welcome to the cafe, what can I get you?" I slowly look up, blushing as I see Ms. Paulson standing in front of me.
"I'd like a table please" she smiled softly, looking to me.
I nod, coming out from behind the bar as I sit her at the table near the window. I pull out the small notepad as I look to her, grabbing my pen.
"What can I get for you today?" I smile as I look away from her eye contact, looking as some people come into the cafe.
She tells me her order as I look to her, seeing her eyes travel up and down my body. "Well, I'll be back in a minute with your things."
I rush around, making sure I get her order perfectly made. I watch as some people kinda eye her, and a few actually greet her. I come back with her drink as I also have a cappuccino in hand for me, it being my lunch break. I hand her the drink she ordered as she shifts a bit uncomfortable, the woman in the chair beside her getting closer. I took this chance as I huff, glaring to the brunette.
"Do you mind? Could you please leave my girlfriend and I alone." I speak coldly as I glare to her, watching as she glared daggers to me.
Ms. Paulson looks a bit shocked, but as fast as it showed it vanished as she smiles, sipping the drink, "thank you baby. You've made it perfect like always"
The way she spoke, putting up a flirtatious and seductive mask, sent a thousand butterflies to buzz in my stomach. I watch as the girl gets up, walking off annoyed as I chuckle a bit. Sarah smiles as I look to her blushing, her eyes running over my face as a million thoughts run through my mind.
"Girlfriend huh?" She looks to me as a smirk tugs at her lips.
"Well, would you like to be left alone with a woman bothering you,Ms. Paulson?" I look as I speak sarcastically, Paulson taking a drink of her drink.
She sets her cup down as she thinks, chuckling as she looks to me, "well, I guess you're right. I appreciate it."
I only nod, "it's nothing. Besides, I enjoy some form of entertainment in my work"
"Oh, please, outside of school you can just call me Sarah."
