Ed Sheeran - Don't

"Talk...NOW!" She shouts.

"What! You told me to get some extra credit, so that's kind of what I'm doing." I state nonchalantly as I shrug out of my jacket.

"I said sleep with him. Not enter an exclusive relationship that could ruin your career!"

"Merely sleeping with him could ruin my career! So why not make it official?" I groan and stroll to my couch. I sit lazily and daydream about my date.

"Hunter!" She whines. "You can't date Professor Maxwell." She sighs heavily and sits next to me.

"What? I like him. Tonight, I was able to admit that. We'll be discrete I promise mom."

"I know you would...but you'll hurt him."

"Who? Brad?"

"No, Day."

What in the actual fuck? Damien Florence likes me. After all those years he has come to some conclusion that I'm his soul mate or whatever and that I am right for him. Last night Isabel enlightened me about how Day had came to her at the end of last school year and broke down about how he's been suppressing his feelings for me. He's been looking beyond the sex and seeing a possible connection between us. Day believes that I too will soon look beyond the sex and want to be with him. He told Izzy that he was going to try to make me see how great we are together. I guess he did that through sex. This is why it's been all sensual and gentle. I was very confused during those times but I didn't see it as anything more that relief. Day told her to stop pushing the professor thing because he didn't want any competition. By golly!

I bang my head on the steering wheel once before climbing out of my car. I've said it once and I'll keep saying it, I have no interest in Day especially not now. I don't know how to break it down to him. After Izzy told me I was beyond speechless and just told her to give me some time. I barely slept last night. My mind was running a mile a minute and now I have to sit in class with my...boyfriend? I groan as I push the door to the classroom open. I was maybe the tenth or twelfth person to arrive and some of the people looked surprised. I glanced at Brad who frowned but didn't say anything. I find a nice seat in the back of the auditorium. I really didn't want to be bothered.

A few more students walk in but they were blurred to me. Until a shadow cast across me to drag me out of my thoughts. I looked up to see the object of my nightmares.

"Hey Hunt. Can we talk?" Day's raspy voice asks.

"I'm kind of in class..." I trail off avoiding eye contact. I feel Brad's eyes watching intently.

"Class doesn't start for another thirty. Just please. We haven't talked in weeks." He pleaded.

I glance at Bradley who looked like he was about to speak up. I sigh and stand up wearily. I follow him slowly out into the corridor and lean against the wall. He takes a deep breath before speaking.

"How you been?" He began.

"Day..." I groan.

"You know don't you?" He rubs his face wearily.

"Yes."

"Look, I know we agreed that this was just sex but Hunter...I lo-"

"No! No! We don't work! This was literally exactly what we agreed it would be. No one was suppose to catch feelings! You were free to date whomever you pleased and I hoped you'd fall in...like out there! We aren't going to happen Damien!" I shout.
