"You're essentially an employee and I like you having to depend on me

You're kind of my protégé and one day you'll say you learned all you know from me

I know you depend on me like a young thing would to a guardian

I know you sexualize me like a young thing would and I think I like it"

"Hey I'm looking for Short Story Writing Class." Grace asked a passing student.

"Room 109, down that way." The person answered back.

Grace grabbed her books and headed to the classroom. She opened the door and saw no one in the classroom. "I must be early." She said aloud as she took the front seat. It was her first day of classes of her freshman year and she was lost most of the time.

"Excuse me I think you're early." The teacher said to Grace.

 The second Grace heard that voice a chill was sent down her back. She turned and faced him.  "Mr. Dimitri?"

He looked at her shocked. "Grace… um what are you doing here?"

"I'm in this class. You work here?" She asked shocked.

"Well yes, I'm sorry I didn't know you were coming here…" He started to say.

"Don't be… it kind of a nice surprise." Grace said smiling.

"A nice surprise? I thought if we ever saw each other again, you'd run."

"Why would I run?"

"Well after everything that happened and me having to leave…"

"I never wanted you to live…"

"Maybe I had to."

"Why?"

"So we could meet here."

"I just wish you would never of had to leave, it was so hard."

"I'm sorry I never wanted to make life hard on you."

The door opened and some students walked in.

"Well I guess we'll talk later?" Grace said smiling.

"Do you want to meet after class?" He asked hoping.

"Yeah, sounds like a good plan." Grace said as she took her seat.

"Ok class welcome to Short Story Writing Class, I'm your teacher Mr. Dimitri…" Mr. Dimitri said as he started to write stuff on the board.

Grace just sat there smiling.

"Grace, I think someone is at the door." Augustine said as he tried to wake up Grace who was sleeping in his lap.

"What? Let me sleep I'm very tired." Grace mumbled but did not open her eyes.

There was a knock at the door. "Gracie? You there?" Lily said.

"Grace, it's your mom, please wake up honey." Augustine said as he tried to wake up her up again

"What?" Grace said as she woke up with a shock. "Uh Mom… I'll be ready in a little bit." Grace screamed through the door. "Augustine, please hide." Grace pleaded.

 "What is she doing here any way? You said we had the night alone."

"I'm sorry I forgot I'm suppose to go to dinner at their house tonight, she came to pick me up. I'm so sorry." Grace said pleading.

"It's ok, I understand just please come back after dinner. I want to spend time with you." Augustine said pleading.

"I will I promise, but you have got to hide now or I will never get out of here." She said as she kissed him.

"Ok but get her out of here quick." He said pleading as he headed to her closet.

"So Grace, how's collage life treating you?" Jessie asked as she passed Grace some food.

"And how is your senior year going?" Grace asked changing the subject.

"It's going good, Kate and I are still together." Jessie said smiling.

"Gracie, have you meet anyone at collage?" Lily asked.

"No, not really." Grace said looking down at her plate.

"Then who were you talking to on the phone a little while ago? You told them you would come over after dinner." Zoe asked.

"You were easy dropping! I cannot believe you. You know I hope that Austin does that to you when he gets older you deserve it." Grace said.

"Grace!" Lily said back shocked.

"I don't think you have to worry about that. The men in this family don't easy drop." Eli said smiling.

"Well they might and we just don't know it." Jessie said smiling.

"I must say I've never easy dropped on anyone." Rick said.

"That's besides the point. Now who is this person who you're meeting after dinner?" Judy asked.

"She's a friend of mine that I go to school with." Grace said lying.

"Ok am I the only one that doesn't believe that?" Eli said smiling.

"Shut up Eli! Why don't we talk about your band." Grace suggested.

"Sure but I still don't believe you…." Eli started to say.

"So how was the family dinner?" Augustine said as Grace came into her door room.

"It was horrible all I could think about was being with you." Grace said smiling as she gave him a kiss.

"Well same here, I couldn't grade any papers because I was waiting for you to come home." Augustine said smiling back at her.

"Oh really well maybe I can help you there. You know I'm pretty sure there's a paper there that deserves an A…" Grace started to say smiling.

"Very funny, we've been through this before I grade my papers fairly, despite the fact if I'm dating the student or not." He said seriously.

"Oh Augustine, you know I was just joking." Grace said smiling.

He laughed. "I know that so what exactly happened at this dinner you were at? Did you get to be with your little brother? I know how much you love him."

"Not really Austin was sleeping while we were there."

"Well that's too bad so anything else happen, any thing eventful?"

"Well other than the fact that everyone kept bugging me about meeting someone. I bet they be shocked if they knew I did have someone." She said smiling.

"Yeah fun for you but they'd kill me especially that father of yours. And I really don't want to die sorry sweetie."

"What I'm not worth dying for?" She asked horrified.

"I didn't say that." He said smiling.

"Ooh this could get messy

But you don't seem to mind

Ooh don't go telling everybody

And overlook this supposed crime"
