"Hehehe!" A girl could be heard giggling from outside of a bedroom door.

"You're so sensitive…" A man could be heard saying in husky tone of voice.

The man was twenty-five year old Hatori Sohma and the girl was sixteen year old Tohru Honda; they were secretly dating and had been for about three months now.

Now, it was somewhat normal for people with large age gaps to date and such; everyone in the area believes that age is just a number.

However, with Hatori's and Tohru's case…they are teacher and student; and that's where relationships are normally frowned upon. It begs the question of is the student smart enough to pass his/her classes on their own.

Hatori has short black hair, green eyes and is about 5'10" and Tohru has long brown hair down to her mid back, brown eyes and is 5'2".

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

An alarm for five thirty went off.

"Oh…I have to get going." Tohru said sitting up.

"I suppose…" Hatori sighed.

"I'm sorry…but I have to be home by six or mom will be angry with me." Tohru said softly.

"Do you want a ride home? I can get you home a lot faster." Hatori offered rubbing her back.

"No; but thanks. I can make it home; besides I'm taking the bus and Uo and Hana are meeting me there." Tohru said softly.

"Do they know of us?" Hatori asked seriously.

"No…not yet; we've only been together for two months and three weeks and I thought we agreed to wait until we've been together…three or four months to tell only our closest friends. Do your friends know?" Tohru asked softly.

"Yes, that's true. No, I don't think so; I think Keiichiro suspects something…but he doesn't know." Hatori said with a smile.

"Good. I love Uo and Hana, but they'd ask a lot of questions that I can't answer yet." Tohru said, blushing as they walked out to the living room.

"And what kinds of questions are those?" Hatori asked, knowing exactly what she was talking about.

"Please don't make me say." Tohru said slightly embarrassed, blushing big time now.

"Ok. I'll see you in class tomorrow." Hatori said with a smile as she walked out the door with her backpack.

"Yep; I'll see in class!" Tohru called back with a smile.

Hatori's P.O.V.:

My name is Hatori Sohma and the girl that just left is Tohru Honda; she is the girl of my dreams…and my student.

Even though she's my student, we've decided to try dating.

She was new to the school I teach at last year…technically she's still the newest student; no other students have come in after her.

She's a very shy, quiet and bookwormish type of girl; but she's very happy. She likes writing, reading and art; she's not really into sports. She does really well in history and anything writing, reading and art; her gray areas are math and anything science…and most sports.

Math and science are the reasons we're together. Every Monday and Tuesday I tutor after school in my one of the after school study rooms with a few other students; and then every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday after school I tutor her at my house.

The principle and math teacher said she needed extra help and that it seems that I am the only one who can get through to her. Not that her math teacher actually helps her; she's always too busy to have study groups or one on one study sessions with a student. She would rather be drinking margaritas or something with her friends.

Oh well, my gain…I have been Tohru's tutor since last year.

Almost three months ago she was walking to a park or something when someone threw a football; it went long…too long and ended up hitting her in the head, knocking her to the ground.

The group playing football were incredibly sorry and stayed with her until I checked her out. My mother was a nurse in a hospital for many years and taught me a lot; she's now a stay at home mom, taking care of the house hold stuff. It is thanks to my mother that I am a teacher/doctor today. My dad left when I was younger to be with a much younger woman.

Anyways, I placed Tohru on a bench and placed the handkerchief that I had wetted down on her forehead.

She was a little out of it…ok she was way out of it; but she was coming to.

In her state she admitted how she felt…and then a few minutes later when she realized just where she was and all she panicked and apologized like crazy.

I told her it was fine and we went our separate ways.

The next day at school before classes I pulled her aside and had a serious talk with her…told her I felt the same way about her.

She asked what we were going to do…so I told her we had to be careful, but we could try to date…but we'd have to keep it a secret. I told her I'd give her time to think about it all.

By the end of the day she said she wanted to try…and the rest is history; we've been dating secretly. Every other Saturday I take her two towns over and we have lunch and see a movie…if there's anything playing. If there's nothing playing we just walk around a park and then I take her home. Well…actually I drop her off at a train or bus station.

Her best friends are Arisa Uotani (Uo), Saki Hanajima (Hana) & Kisa Sohma; my best friends are my cousins, Ayame, Shigure, Yuki and Hatsuharu (Haru).

We've been together for almost three months now and we haven't kissed or had sex yet. To be honest I don't really care about the sex; I can wait for that. But I would like to kiss her; but I won't force her…she's just so shy.

Before her, I had girlfriend named Jade; we started dating in high school. That lasted up until three or four years ago…I don't remember. But I do know that I broke up with her because she started telling me and going around, telling my friends I was no longer allowed to hang out with them; I could only hang out with her.

Also since I broke up with her she hasn't left me alone; she cries and begs to get back together. She claims she's so sorry and that she'll change. So I took her back and she was better; she had changed…for about six months. Then she started to tell me who I could and couldn't hang out with again. She also started telling me what I could and couldn't eat and do. So I broke up with her again. And again she begged for me to come back to her…and me being stupid did; but that time it only lasted two weeks.

After that I got a restraining order against her…which didn't help; she ignored them all and is now serving a five year sentence. Not just for that; there were other things she did to get thrown in jail that long.

Anyways, back to Tohru…

I know she has asthma, has ADD, OCD, social anxiety, mild depression and is a spaz. I think she has PTSD as well, but I'm not sure on that.

I think there's something up, but I'm not sure. But I do know that I will find out…eventually.

But for now, I'll bide my time and take things slow.

Normal P.O.V.:

But what Hatori doesn't know is that tomorrow, he'll learn a lot more than he bargained for…
