A story, in which a typical teenage girl falls for the school's bad boy. Except, she's not that typical and he's not that much of a bad boy. *** "If I told you that I care about you, more than anyone in your life does, would you believe me?" He asked me, his jaw clenched. I could tell he was furious. Yet somehow, I wasn't scared of him. "No" I shook my head bravely. "If I told you,'' He tried again, closing his eyes and taking a deep breath before continuing.''That you make me so fucking mad, I want to punch a fucking wall. What would you say?" He had me trapped now, my back painfully colliding with the wall behind me. I gasped at the impact, looking up into his icy grey eyes. They were cold, emotionless. As always. "Do it!" I dared him with the last ounce of courage I had left in me. The sound of his fist smashing through the wall right next to my head, made my ears ring for a brief moment. I opened my mouth to speak again, shaking slightly, only for him to pull away and leave me standing there alone. ____ !!Warning!!

Driving You Besotted (gxg, Teacher/Student)
⚠️ WARNING: Big age-gap, teacher and student relationship, and a little bit graphic out of descriptions. "When you love something...you fight for it, but when someone drives you besotted you will do everything for desire even to put your life at risk." ----------------------------------- A thirty-three-year-old woman who has mastered the art of concealment, and a twenty-one-year-old girl whose curiosity compels her to uncloak every mystery that dares to hold her gaze. When their paths collide, mountains of paradox rise between them-age, authority, restraint, and unspoken longing. Yet compassion, fragile and dangerous, blooms in the valleys of despair they never meant to share. This is not a love that arrives gently. It is a slow burn-one that simmers beneath stolen glances, fractured morals, and choices that could cost everything. •I just wanted to let you know that this is a SLOW BURN ROMANCE.
