I took my usual seat in the back corner, far away from the line of fire that always seemed to follow Mr. Montgomery's gaze. I tried to disappear into the safety of my textbook, but his piercing blue eyes seemed to find me anyway, as if daring me to challenge him once more. "Ah, Miss Taylor, how lovely of you to grace us with your presence," Mr. Montgomery quipped, his tone dripping with sarcasm as he glanced up from his papers. "I trust you've come prepared to dazzle us with your unparalleled enthusiasm for Shakespeare?" I resisted the urge to roll my eyes, opting instead for a tight-lipped smile that did little to disguise my annoyance. "Of course, Mr. Montgomery," I replied, my voice dripping with equal parts sarcasm and defiance.

I was unable to form words because, I thought about how hot he looked as he stared back at me with such intensity. It just intrigued me. I finally snapped out of my trance, but not because I'd came to my senses, but because I felt a cold sensation running down my body. I blinked about three times before it finally registered that he'd pressed the button and now water was spilling from the roof, and some students were laughing and playing. My breath hitched in my throat as he came closer. "You really should've worn a more, I don't know, a thicker shirt or bra. Because your two lovely friends are standing at attention." as the words left his mouth, realization caught up to me and I flushed with embarrassment and quickly crossed my arms over my chest.
