Melissa ( book)

Chapter 9

Melissa

Damn, I didn't imagine I would meet my teacher's ogre... of course he's too beautiful.

Now, seeing him close to me, like this, like this... smelling his perfume is making me excited. My desire grows even more when I see that he wears his shirt half open, I can see the beginning of his chest and it leaves my mouth salivating with the desire to run my tongue all over him. I feel a heat rising inside me. I've never been like this for anyone.

- Hey professor. —I greet and look at him, wishing that everything around us would disappear and it would just be the two of us.

— No teacher, Melissa — he asks, and I find it strange.

What does he want you to call him? Eduardo, the hottie?

— This isn't school and you're not my student, we're two normal people, don't you think? — He comments. And I wanted to respond: Of course we're normal, so can we be together, hottie? But it's better not to.

— What then do you want me to call you?

— You can call me Edu! — In my opinion, hot is the best definition. — Can I call you Mel? - question. I like hearing him call me Melissa, but hearing him call me Mel raised my state of excitement.

— Of course, yes — I agree, wanting to prolong our conversation even further.

I wanted to have the courage to ask him things that I wouldn't have had the courage to ask him if we were at school. Is he accompanied? Is it a teacher? I don't know if I want to know about this.

I'm distracted in my thoughts when I hear Gabi greeting Edu and that breaks our relationship, I mean, my distraction.

-

— Hello, Gabriela, you can call me Edu, this isn't school — my hottie says, looking at Gabi.

I hear another voice calling Edu and I see that he is a very handsome man, but not like my hottie. He turns his head toward the voice and then looks at me again.

— Girls, I have to go. See you tomorrow.

Say goodbye and leave. I stand there watching as he approaches his friend and they talk.

— Mel, wake up. — Gabriela calls, breaking me out of my reveries.

“But I'm awake,” I say.

“It didn't seem like it,” she says, shrugging.

— Gabi, of course I'm awake — I reply, rolling my eyes.

— Mel, you looked like you were stuck looking at him.

— What are you talking about, Gabi? — I disagree, pulling her arm so we can get into the movie session, which, of course, had already started.

— Mel, can I ask you a question?

—Of course, Gabi!

— Do you like Professor Eduardo? — she asks, curious and I decide to answer honestly.

— I don't know, Gabi, he messes with me. Why?

— I don't know, it was like you were in a bubble where it was just the two of you — she comments.

— Gabi, honestly I still don't know how I feel about him — I confess.

— Mel, what do you think of him?

— Gabi, I really don’t know yet. I just know that when he comes close to me like that, I have a crazy urge to throw myself into his arms — I respond softly as we look for our seats. I was going to continue talking, but the music interrupted me, announcing that the film was about to start.

After almost two hours of film, we left the cinema and went to the food court to buy snacks. We are starving. Armed with our unhealthy food, we looked for a table to sit down. As I devour my fries, my mind thinks about so many things at once that it feels like I'm going into a tailspin.

— Gabi, do you think Edu would like me... like this... as a woman? — I ask, and I see his surprised look.

— I think so, Mel. But what I noticed is that he is already interested in you — he confesses quietly, as if anyone else in this noisy food court could hear us.

— Really, Gabi? And even if we were, we couldn't even be together because of school — I comment.

— Mel, out here you are normal people, inside you will behave like student and teacher.

— It's true, you're right, but I don't even know what it's going to be like... in fact, I think it's all a figment of my imagination.

We finished eating, as it was still early we decided to go for a walk around the mall and as soon as we came across the bookstore. We both laughed because we knew we would stay until dark and that's exactly what ended up happening. As soon as we left the bookstore it was already late and my mother might be worried about us so we went to order a taxi as it was late and Gabi was already going to sleep at home.
