No one has ever looked at me with such longing and desire before. Her hand glided across my cheek, her skin like silk. I knew she was my student and I knew this was completely and utterly wrong, but I just couldn't help myself. "Stop thinking so much." She stepped towards me, causing me to step back. This prowl continued until my butt bumped the front of my desk. Her hands settled on either side of me, bracing on the desk. Her fingers clenched, her knuckles turned white. "Dammit." She cursed, an almost sad look in her beautiful eyes. Then all at once her hands cupped my face, pulling me further into the raging tide that was her. I couldn't help but dive right in.

I hadn't seen her since last week and figured I never would again given the stunt I had pulled. She looked up and started to walk over. A shiver went down my body as I took her in. The dark blue flannel complimented her long blond hair and blue eyes, while the skinny jeans showed off every curve she had to offer. She was breathtaking. "Hello Shay, how is your night going?" My mind turned to mush as her lovely voice flowed over me. "Uh....um its good, I mean, it's going great." I stammered. She said nothing for a long moment, just watched me with those cool blue eyes. "I'm glad." She said finally. I couldn't hold it back any longer. I took a step closer to her, and I could see her tense out of the corner of my eye. "I just wanted to apologize." I was glad when my voice was steady when I spoke, funny since I'd been a stumbling fool earlier. Miss Conner just watched me. I fought the urge to reach over and shake her. That impenetrable mask that she always wore was driving me crazy! "For what?" My brows furrowed and I stared at my English teacher in confusion. "For kissing you." •This is my first book, so be mindful of the spelling errors and please respect that I am not a published, world-wide known author. Thanks.•
