She led Thomas to her friends, who were sitting at an open part of the coffee shop. As they talked, she couldn't help but stare at Thomas. He was getting along with her friends. He was talking to them as if they're friends, not students. Ethan seemed interested in Thomas' works, and Addison told them stories about parties, which he looked very interested in. She couldn't believe that they were on a real date like this.
As she watched him talk with her friends, something gnawed at her stomach. Her meeting with Priya was tomorrow. She'd have to explain everything. How could she explain herself? She didn't even know how to place her feelings. She was taken with Thomas, but she was his student.
She took a deep breath and took a long sip of her latte. She wanted to savor this moment and every detail of this day for as long as she could.
A/N: I just wanted to make a quick shout out to all the people who have read and enjoyed the story so far. I also want to thank the people who reviewed, not just because they were super sweet, but because they gave me more inspiration to write more chapters. Thanks again! :)
