Sara closed the door, lightly. She was glad that he didn't hear her come
in. She stood there, admiring him. What was she doing here? What brought
her back here? She turned around and opened the door slightly. She just
wanted to slip out.
"Sara."
She jumped and turned around.
"Hi." She said, feeling like an idiot.
"Do you need anything?" He asked as he looked at her.
"No. I just wanted to see if you were still here."
"I am." He stood up and started to walk towards her.
"Is something wrong?"
"No, I just wanted to ask you a question."
He was in front of her.
"Alright, ask."
No, she couldn't ask him. He'll say no. Beside, it was wrong. He's your teacher.
She paused and looked at him.
"I forgot."
"Oh. I hope you remember, soon." He said, smirking.
She laughed nervously. "Yeah. Well, I got to go."
"I'll see you tomorrow."
"Yeah."
Sara reached for the door knob and turned it. It wouldn't open. She tried to turn it harder, it was stuck.
Sara turned around and looked at him.
She motioned to the door. "It won't open."
He reached over and she stood where she was. Her back against the door.
Suddenly, time froze. It seemed like the world stopped, just for them. Her heart was beating out of her chest as he looked at her. The way he looked at her.
She leaned in, didn't know why she was doing it. He did the same but suddenly the door opened and she went flying backwards with him on top on her.
"A sneak preview before the movie, huh?" Nikki asked as she looked down, grinning.
Professor Grissom stood up and leaned a hand. She took it and he pulled her up.
"I am sorry about that." He said, looking at her.
"So am I."
After a moment of awkwardness, Sara broke the silent.
"I'll see you later, Professor Grissom."
She started to walk away with Nikki.
"Sara."
"Yes?" She turned around.
"Call me Grissom."
She nodded and then smiled.
Grissom walked back in class as Nikki and Sara walked away.
