Erotomania

Chapter 8

Tuesday morning brought it's own set of challenges. For one, neither Hope nor Ryan had set an alarm the night before, so when they did wake up, they were both running late to get ready for their first classes of the day. For two, as they were rushing to get ready, neither of them could stop themselves from stealing small little kisses from the other. By the time they managed to get to campus, they were just barely sitting down in their respective seats in their respective classes when their classes started. For Hope that was a History of Art class, but for Ryan, it was regular history class.

"Nice of you to join us, Ryan." Alaric said.

"Sorry Professor, overslept this morning." Ryan replied with a straight face.

"I see." Alaric commented with a small chuckle.

Ryan glared at the older male. He might have been friends with the man's daughters, but did he really have to act like he knew the exact reason Ryan had overslept? It really wouldn't be doing Ryan any favors for people to start rumors about who he spends his nights with before anything had actually happened between him and Hope. Other than her being way out of his league, her being the Dean's daughter in particular was one of the prevailing reason he hadn't asked her out yet. But the past weekend had brought a shift in their friendship, and he needed to get his act together and ask her. Klaus already seemed to approve of them being together, but Ryan still planned on asking the man if he could date Hope.

Can't stop thinking about you wearing nothing but my shirt to bed last night. ;) – R

If you play your cards right, you might get a repeat of that tonight. – H

Careful, Hope, I might just skip my next class to keep you to myself. – R

That would be a good way to not play your cards right. Be a good boy and stay in class. – H

Ryan groaned. All he could think of was having Hope beneath him and slowly revealing her entire body to him. How the hell was he supposed to stay in class, and be able to focus on what his professors were saying when images of Hope kept playing on a loop in his mind? The end of his class with Alaric couldn't come soon enough. Because Ryan needed to get out of there and take care of the problem that had arisen in his pants. And he had half a mind to bring Hope with him when he took care of it. She had been the cause of it, after all. But he quickly pushed that thought out of his mind. If he was seen leading Hope to his TA's office, and then the blinds being closed so that they could some privacy, rumors would definitely start flying. So he was going to have to take care of it himself. But by the time the class ended, Ryan couldn't get out of the classroom fast enough, and Alaric was asking him to stay for a couple minutes. So with a sigh, Ryan stayed where he was and waited impatiently for the rest of the class to empty out before looking at Alaric.

"Can we make this quick, Alaric? I kind of have a pressing matter to deal with." Ryan said.

"Oh, I don't want to talk to you, Ryan. Caroline does." Alaric said as he nodded to the door where Lizzie and Josie's mother stood.

"Did I do something wrong?" Ryan asked.

"Quite the opposite actually, I have a request." Caroline said as she walked over to Alaric and gave him a small kiss on the cheek.

"What request would that be?" Ryan questioned.

"The live model that I had gotten for my drawing class tomorrow had to back out, and I was wondering if you would like to step in. Alaric has already agreed to let you skip class tomorrow, if you agree." Caroline explained.

"What kind of modeling are we talking about?" Ryan asked slowly.

"It would be nude, but my students need to learn to draw the entirety of the human body." Caroline replied carefully.

"Hope's in your class tomorrow, right?" Ryan asked as an idea struck him.

"She is." Caroline said with a nod.

"I'll do it." Ryan agreed.

"And you will be paid for your time." Caroline added.

"Thank you. Can I go now?" Ryan asked.

"Go ahead."

With that, Ryan bolted from his seat and hurried to his TA's office. The thought of Hope seeing him naked and having no choice but to draw him as such, well, that had just made him more aroused, and even more in need of relieving himself. When he reached his office, he had just barely closed and locked the door before he was freeing his erection with one hand and pulling up the picture of Hope on his phone with the other. With Hope's messages fresh in his mind, and her picture on his phone, Ryan didn't last very long before reaching his release. Before he could clean himself up, there was a knock on his office door, and a very familiar voice coming from the other side.

Legacies – Erotomania – Legacies

As she slipped her phone back into her pocket, Hope couldn't help but smirk. She knew that she was teasing him, but she had always enjoyed teasing Ryan. And after spending the weekend together, spending a lot of that time together kissing each other, and spending two nights out of 3 in the same bed, the teasing had taken on a new level. She just prayed that she didn't get him into trouble with Lizzie and Josie's dad. Unlike her where she sat in the back row of her classroom, Hope knew that Ryan sat in the front row of Alaric's class. So between the two of them, Ryan would be the one that would easily be caught with his phone out during class. The rest of class passed pretty quickly and Hope happily packed up her stuff before heading out to find her friends. Before she could slip out of the classroom, however, her professor stopped her.

"Hope, I know that you are the Dean's daughter, but please try to be more considerate of when you arrive to class."

"I'm so sorry, Emma. I forgot to set my alarm last night and woke up late. I promise it won't happen again." Hope replied.

"Make sure that it doesn't. I can't show any special treatment. It would put my job at risk, and it would only open the flood gates for your classmates to see you as spoiled." Emma commented. "Since this is your first offense, it will be your first and only warning on the matter."

With a nod, Hope headed out into the hall, ready to get something to eat for lunch. However, her path was quickly blocked by Landon and Rafael.

"Hey guys, what's up?" Hope asked as she moved around them.

"We could ask you the same thing. We've been getting the silent treatment from everyone all weekend. So what was going on that we weren't invited to?" Landon asked as he went to take Hope's hand.

"I had family over for the weekend. I'm not sure what everyone else was doing." Hope replied as she moved her hand away from Landon's and adjusted the strap of her book bag.

"I stopped by on Sunday, and I didn't see any extra cars at your place." Landon said, and his accusatory tone didn't go unnoticed by Hope.

"Are you accusing me of lying, Landon?" Hope snapped.

"He was asking your dad for permission to ask you out." Rafael commented.

"I know, when I got home from the store that morning, my dad told me." Hope said, her hard gaze never leaving Landon's guilty one. "Are you accusing me of lying about what I was doing all weekend?" She asked Landon again.

"No... I'm just... I'm just confused, Hope. If you had family over, where were they when I stopped by?" Landon asked.

"My dad and I have 1 guest room at our house, Landon. My entire family would not fit into that one guest room. And since none of them actually live in town, where the hell do you think they were? They stayed at a hotel." Hope said. "Now, I'm going to go get some lunch. I'll see you both around." She added before walking away from them.

By the time she turned the far corner of the hallway, Hope was close to breaking down, she was shaking so much. As she breathed slowly and deeply, she glanced up and saw Ryan rushing into his TA's office at the other end of the hallway. Looking back around the corner from where she had just came from, Hope saw Landon and Rafael walking in the opposite direction and she hurried to Ryan's office and knocked lightly.

"Ry? Can I come in? I wanted to talk about what was covered in class last week." Hope said.

She had to say something that wouldn't give away how close they had gotten over the weekend. She waited for a moment, hearing Ryan moving around before she heard the click of the door being unlocked and opening enough for her to slip inside. Once she was completely in the room, Ryan closed and relocked the door behind her before turning to face her.

"Am I, uh, interrupting?" Hope asked as she noticed his jeans were open.

"You know perfectly well what you did, Princess. I had to do something to relieve the pressure." Ryan replied.

"Oh!" Hope said in a surprised whisper. "Sorry, Ryan. I didn't think my texts would get that much of a reaction." She added as she looked away from him.

"Well they did, and I'm pretty sure Alaric knows why I was nearly late for class. I told him I overslept, and his reaction gave the implication that he knew why I overslept." Ryan said as he moved around his desk and cleaned himself up. "You said you wanted to talk about class?" He asked as he grabbed Hope's hand and pulled her into his lap.

"Not really. But I just got cornered by Landon and Raf." Hope said as she draped her arms around Ryan's neck.

"What did they want?"

"They wanted to know why everyone was giving them the silent treatment all weekend. When I told them that I had had family over for the weekend, Landon accused me of lying. He also tried holding my hand."

"I take it that you didn't let him do that?"

"Absolutely not. I moved my hand away and adjusted the strap on my bag."

Ryan nodded at that before turning his head and pressing a kiss to Hope's wrist. Leaning in, Hope turned Ryan's head so that he was looking up at her and she pressed her lips to his.

"Maybe I could make it up to you?" She whispered.

"Only if you're comfortable doing so." Ryan replied.

"Would you be able to make it through the rest of the day if I don't help?"

"I think I'm screwed either way, Princess. If you don't, then it'll be painful all day; but if you do, I'll be imagining you going down on me for the rest of the day."

Hope bit her lower lip at Ryan's words. It was her fault that he was in the situation, so it was only fair that she help him take care of it. But that would be crossing yet another line in their relationship that they wouldn't be able to uncross. And she had put it out there Sunday night that the only reason they weren't dating was because neither of them had ask the other one, letting Ryan know that if he were to ask her, she would say yes, so doing this, giving him a blow job to help me with the very obvious erection that she had caused him to get, it was the right thing to do. Crossing lines be damned. So with one more kiss for a bit of courage, Hope climbed off of Ryan's lap and knelt down in front of him.

"Are you sure you want to do this, Princess? You really don't have to if you aren't sure, or if you're nervous." Ryan said softly.

"I want to. I've just never done this before, so I might need you to guide me through it a bit." Hope replied.

"Then let's not do this here... let's do this at home." Ryan urged.

"I'm not going to leave you to be in pain all day... not when it's my fault and when I can do something to help you." Hope said as her gaze hardened in determination. "Just... guide me through it so I do what you like."

"Okay." Ryan said with a nod as he stood up so as to be able to lower his jeans and boxers.

When he sat back down, Hope's eyes widened. She had imagined what his dick would look like many times. The length of it was to be expected, given his height, but she hadn't expected it to be as wide as it was. But that didn't deter her. Tentatively wrapping one hand around the base, Hope leaned forward and took the tip into her mouth. Ryan's hands came down to the back of her head and he laced his fingers into Hope's hair to lightly guide her to take more of him into her mouth, but before they could get much further, the door handle started rattling and someone was pounding on the door.

"Let me in Ryan. I know you're in there, I can see the light on." Landon called through the door.

"There's a reason the door is locked, Landon. I'm busy." Ryan called back.

"And we need to talk, so put whatever your doing on hold and come open the door." Landon said.

Ryan clenched his jaw and gave Hope an apologetic look as he eased her off of him. Motioning for her to stay hidden under the desk, Ryan stood up and tucked his dick away before walking around the desk and opening the door just enough for him to see Landon, but not enough for Landon to see into the office, or to actually be able to get in.

"What the hell do you want?" Ryan asked.

"Mom's pissed." Landon stated.

"Yeah, I know the feeling. It's how I feel towards you, right now. But that doesn't tell me what you want." Ryan replied.

"You moved out. And she's pissed that you did. She wants to know where you're staying." Landon said.

"Well, you can tell her that it's none of her business, or yours. Is that all?"

"No... how did you know that Hope's family was coming into town?"

"Not that that's any of your business, either, but she mentioned it when I was dropping her off Friday night. Now, as I've already told you, I'm busy, so go away."

Slamming the door in his brother's face, Ryan quickly locked it and moved back to his chair and glanced down at Hope who was glaring over her shoulder, through the desk and the office door, at Landon. Despite his brother's interruption ruining the moment, Hope's glare had Ryan lightly chuckling as he offered her his hands and helped her up.

"It's a good thing we took Dad's old car to school today." Hope commented in a low voice.

"Why's that, Princess?" Ryan asked he rubbed the back of her hands with his thumbs.

"If he gets it into his head to try to follow me home today, he wouldn't know that you're the one driving the car. He'll be looking for your SUV." Hope said before straddling Ryan's lap and pressing a kiss to his neck. "Plus it has a bench seat in the front, so we can continue this on the way home." She added in a seductive voice directly in Ryan's ear.

"Is that a promise?" Ryan asked.

"Absolutely."

By the time their last classes of the day ended, Ryan and Hope couldn't get to each other fast enough. Ryan had been irritable for the rest of the day, simply because his arousal was still a bit painful and because, as he had mentioned to Hope, all he could think about for the rest of the day was her on her knees going down on him. Hope, on the other hand, couldn't get the thought of straddling Ryan's lap out of her head. But when they both got out of class, they still couldn't get to each other right away. Because once again, Hope's path was blocked by Landon.

"Hey, uh, can we talk?" Landon asked.

"About what?" Hope questioned as she locked eyes with Ryan over Landon's shoulder.

"Earlier... I wanted to make sure you didn't still think that I was accusing you of lying about your family." Landon said.

"But that's exactly what you did, Landon. And my dad did tell me that you stopped by, and while you're a good person, I have no interest in dating you. I have to go." Hope said as she stepped around him, only for him to grab her arm.

"Hope... please, give me a chance. I can change your mind; I know I can't." Landon said.

"Let go of my arm, Landon." Hope stated with a glare.

"Say you'll give me a chance to prove you wrong." Landon replied, his grip tightening.

"There's nothing to prove wrong, Landon. And it's not an ultimatum. Let. Go. Of. My. Arm." Hope said through clenched teeth.

Instead of doing what she told him to do, Landon used his hold on Hope's arm to pull her into him and press his lips to hers in a sloppy and demanding kiss. Before Hope could react by pushing him off of her, or kneeing him in the crotch, she was pulled away from Landon while Landon was being held back. Glancing up, Hope met her father's eyes as he held her close. Looking over at Landon, Hope sighed in relief at seeing Ryan holding his brother in a headlock.

"Are you alright Sweetheart?" Klaus asked.

"No. He grabbed my arm when I went to walk around him, and after I told him twice to let go, he kissed me." Hope replied shakily.

"Ryan, take Landon to my office. Kaleb, MG, stay with Hope." Klaus instructed and Hope looked around to see her friends standing close by.

Once Ryan had Landon far enough down the hall, Klaus passed Hope over to her friends before following the brothers. When they had turned the corner, Hope turned to her friends.

"I think I'm going to be sick." Hope muttered.

"Let's get you to the restroom. Kaleb, MG, can you two go to the student store and get a think of mouthwash for her?" Lizzie asked.

"I'll go. Kaleb should stay with the three of you." MG offered.

"Just be quick." Josie commented.

By the time Hope and Ryan were both home, neither were in the mood to do anything other than just lay in each other's arms. And as soon as Ryan's arms were wrapped tightly around her, Hope broke down and started crying. She mumbled an apology through her tears, but Ryan assured her that she had nothing to be sorry for. He knew that she wasn't at fault for what had happened. It had all been Landon's doing. And for the pain that Landon had caused, Ryan swore to himself that he would not let his brother get away with it. Landon was going to pay for what he had done, one way or another.
