'Whats that from?' Mason says lifting up my sleeve a little more to reveal the obvious bruise. Shįt I forgot about that one, 'I bumped into my counter last night. You know me, clumsy'. Mason looks at me knowingly. 'I have to get to class but I'll meet you at lunch. My treat.' I say running off to class. That was a close one ------------ Warning: Contains some graphic scenes that may be triggering or uncomfortable.

Despite the schools strict teacher/student policy Alex Reynolds can't help being drawn to his student, Belle Whitley. She's brilliant and the complete opposite of her peers, what starts as a kind gesture begins to unravel when he begins to suspect she's being abused at home. He convinces himself that he's only trying to help a good student out of a bad situation and that it's nothing special. That doesn't explain why he thinks about her when he's home alone, why he wants to touch her every time she's close and it sure doesn't explain why one kind gesture is quickly turning into a dangerous obsession. HUGE THANK YOU TO @APHRODITE270 FOR THE AMAZING COVER! FIRST STORY LIKE THIS GIVE IT A READ PLEASE!
