Chapter 7

What could I do?

Fuck.

How could I get this damn girl out of my head?

It had been a week since I had last touched Rapunzel and I was going out of my mind. Literally, I was starting to grow mad.

I was sick, wasn't I? I was a fucking sick creep for being attracted to a seventeen year old girl.

Well almost eighteen. I mean, she was of consenting age. Oh my God... What kind of man has to justify what he's doing by going to the law to make himself feel better? I mean, I'm not that much older. I only graduated high school five years ago.

It's just... What the hell is it?

I know what it is... It's her. She's flawless and that body... Christ. And she's smart. Not just class smart, but just all around smart. She could hold her own in a conversation. And she didn't work for it either! It just came to her naturally which is even more sexier. And that night.. Seeing her on that stage - singing with her band, completely in her element - and I knew that I was fucked. If I hadn't been able to get her out of my head then, there was absolutely no chance now.


"I'm here!" she yelled running through the crowd.

I had just made it to the concert hall where she her band was preforming. I stayed in the shadows, listening to the people whisper and begin to chant rooting for them. I leaned against the wall and tried to shove that kiss into the back of my mind, but all I wanted to do was run up that stage and kiss her right in front of everyone. I settled for crossing my arms and staying quiet.

I watched as Hiccip Haddock yelled to her," Rapunzel?" and shield his eyes and yelling her name," Rapunzel!"

He pulled her on stage and she smiled. She was completely in her element and she knew what she was doing. She oozed confidence.

"Do you guys wanna hear one more!" she yelled into the mic and the crowd cheered. I smiled, but held back still as she yelled," 1, 2, 3, 4!"

Everyone loved her. And how could they not? Her blonde hair fell around her and glowed like a halo. Her bright green eyes shining with the adrenaline. Her full lips parting to make way for an angelic voice. She was wearing blue skinny and a black flowing blouse with black boots. I remembered thinking how gorgeous she looked when she walked into detention.

And then she started crying, and Jesus, if she wasn't even more beautiful with her eyes red rimmed and her cheeks stained with tears. I didn't know why I held her. She was distraught and it was an instinct to run over to her and console her. She was upset, and I had done that to her.

I'd put her in that pain.

And I had to fix it.

Miss Gothel had told me about the concert. Told me how Rapunzel and her band had been planning this for a month and has worked so hard on their sample cd to send to Frozen Records. She had told me how she understood how Rapunzel needed to be punished, but couldn't I just let this slide just this once?

But I was stubborn. She embarrassed me and it was all about revenge.

I was a twenty-three year old man seeking revenge on a seventeen year old girl.

So I'd gone to her. I scooped her up, wiped away her tears, and I made the fatal mistake of looking at her lips. So full and perfect. I remembered my heart speeding up. I hadn't had the feeling of wanting to kiss someone that much in such a long time that it was almost foreign. But she looked at me with those big, beautiful, wide green eyes and I knew I'd be a fool not to kiss her.

I sighed.

It wasn't until about halfway through that the lyrics she was singing were starting to dawn on me.

"So I cry

The light is white

And I see you

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive

I can feel you all around me

Thickening the air I'm breathing

Holding onto what I'm feeling

Savoring this heart that's healing..."

The realization that hit me was suddenly overwhelming.

It's me.

That song is about me. I was the one that she could feel all around her, thickening the air that she's breathing. What she was saying was so true that my hands started to shake. She had written a song about me.

She wanted me. I already knew that by her body language and her kissing me back, but for some reason hearing the song just made it more real. And I understood what she was feeling and saying. I knew because that was the affect she has on me. All I can do is think about her. Every time I close my eyes. If she's in the room, my eyes only seek her out. She's all around me.

I had to get out of there. It was like the concert hall had become to small and I was suffocating. I couldn't think. I walked out the door and back to my office as quickly as I could.


I remembered that night. All of the feelings. Her coming to my office door and knocking. Me opening it and she was looking gorgeous as ever. Her hair wild, her breath coming fast, her cheeks red.

I shouldn't have pulled her in, but when I asked her who the song was about and she said," You." I lost it. Kissing her was like drinking a glass of water after not having it for days. I couldn't stop guzzling. She was a breath of fresh hair in my dull life. But the realization that I was kissing my student hit me like a ton of bricks. I had worked so hard for this job. Dean Black had been so skeptical to hire me since I was so young, but I had eventually convinced him to hire me. And I love my job. I love the light coming into someone's eyes when something finally clicked. I love laughing at my students when one acts silly or makes a joke. I even love disciplining them so I could teach the error of their ways.

So I told her to go. Even though there was nothing more than I wanted her to stay the night with me, I sent her away. I had to.

So now here I am, sitting behind my desk, running my hands down my face and sighing. I heard the door of my classroom open. My chemistry class was coming up soon and this was about the time that they usually walk in.

When I looked up, my breath caught.

There she was.

She shut the door and leaned against. Tilting her head as if to study me. Her eyes focusing.

"Hi", she said.

"Good morning, Miss Corona", I nodded at her forcing the formality in my voice so I didn't give anything away.

She rolled her eyes and I had to look down to hide my smile. She caught on.

"Miss Corona", she repeated in a mocking tone as she sauntered over to my desk. She sat on top of the desk that our last night's rendovous happeneded and where she started sitting after talking to that Rider kid again. I had to force myself not to scowl at the thought of them maybe being together.

I looked up at her and she was looking at me with an arched eyebrow.

I raised my eyebrows in question.

She rolled her eyes again. "Don't act dumb", she told me and crossed her legs, leaning back on her hands," You can make out with me on this desk but you can't call me Rapunzel?"

I shook my head and glanced quickly at my classroom door that was still thankfully closed.

"Is something wrong Miss Corona?" I asked innocently. I knew that my voice sounded cool, but I felt anything but. She was looking at my with those big green eyes and when she crossed her legs the skirt she was wearing went up and I could see her milky thigh. I swalled the lump in my throat and tried to breath evenly.

She gaped at me, and I smirked as I stepped away from my desk. I walked towards her and stopped when we were about a foot away from each other and she was watching my every movement.

"No, nothing", she shook her head.

I crossed my arms and tried to remain passive.

"Seriously?" Rapunzel asked and looked at my with an annoyed scowl. I raised my eyebrows again, and she rolled her eyes.

I looked at her. Her chest was heaving slightly, and she was biting the inside of her bottom lip. Her hair was tossed over one should and her head was tilted to the side. She narrowed her eyes and she regarded me. In that moment I thought I had never seen anyone more beautiful. It pained me to look at her. I hated looking at her and feeling like this and wanting her so badly but I know I shouldn't - couldn't - have her.

"What?" she snapped.

I smirked and shrugged.

I moved from my spot and leaned against the table next to hers, my arms still crossed. I looked out of the corner of my eye and gave a small smile as she edged closer. From where I was, I could smell her. She smelled like oatmeal and honey and it was mouthwatering. I glanced down at her thigh that had become a bit more exposed when she scooted closer. I wanted to reach out, to run a finger along it just to see, to see if I could make her shiver.

I could feel her eyes on me, but I didn't look at her. I couldn't look at her because if I did... Fuck, if I did I knew what would happen.

I felt her edge a bit closer so I could feel the heat coming off of her body. She had uncrossed her legs and she was leaning forward on her hands, trying to get a good view of my face. I stared straight ahead, acting uninterested.

"Look at me", she pleaded.

I shook my head," I can't."

"Why?" her voice so soft.

"You know why."

Silence fell between us and I felt it charge like electricity. She was looking at me and I could smell her, and she was my student, but God what was I going to do, and then I did it. I turned my head.

When I turned my head to slowly to look at her, my breath caught. She was even closer that I had thought, her face inchs from mine. Her green eyes bore into mine, and I couldn't help but glance down at her lips. She moved forward and I leaned back just a little.

"You have a boyfriend", I scowled and she looked confused," Uh, no I don't."

"What about the Flynn Rider?"

"We're just friends", she told me and I felt my heart sore," I'm not interested in him."

I took the risk. I brought my hand up slowly, ever so slowly, and laid it on her thigh and I felt her shiver. I knew I could make her shiver.

"You say that like you are interested in someone", I told her, my voice low. My fingers curled around her thigh and I felt her sigh.

"You know I am", she whispered.

"You're my student."

She huffed and grabbed the cuffs of my shirt and pulled me in front of her. My eyes went wide at her boldness and I looked down at her lips.

"I'm going to kiss you now", she told me with authority and I laughed," And you're going to kiss me back."

She pulled me forward and our lips collided. I moaned at the contact and my arms went around her, cupping her perfectly toned butt from cheerleading and pulled her toward me. Her arms went into my hair like they always do and raked through it. I'm sure it was causing my hair a great mess, but it was worth it. She whimpered and I bit her bottom lip.

"I want you", she breathed.

"I want you too", I gasped as she started to kiss my neck. She unbuttoned a top button and then the next one, and then...

I heard voices and the classroom door click open. In a flash I was away from her and back near my desk. I walked behind it and when I turned she had hopped off the desk and was sitting in her regular desk, no longer sitting at the table when Flynn sat at. I relished that little victory.

I smiled at her. She was sitting at her desk and pouting, her neck red. I was happy I did that to her.


I let out a frustrated sigh as I thought over the day. I just couldn't get Rapunzel out of my head. I was falling hard for this girl. She wasn't just my student anymore. I knew that, she knew that, it's just I couldn't admit it to myself yet. I couldn't say it out loud.

I couldn't take it anymore. I had to get out of here. This classroom was just a memory chamber of everything I've done with Rapunzel.

I stalked out of the class and wondered down hallways for what seemed like an eternity. Eventually I was feeling better about everything and I headed back for my office.

I heard a nervous laugh and I stopped in my tracks.

"Stop it", I heard someone say awkwardly.

"C'mon, this is something we've never done", a male voice urging on. I knew what this was, but then the girl's voice made my blood run cold.

"Flynn, I said stop", she pleaded," I don't want to do this."

"Rapunzel, just let it happen", he heard the Rider kid say," It'll be fun."

"Flynn, stop it right now!" he heard her yell and he kicked open the door of the classroom next to him.

The sight that he was greeted with made his stomach hurt. Rapunzel was on her back on a desk, tears rolling down her cheeks and Flynn had his pants down around his knees, one had restraining Rapunzel's left hand behind her head and his other hand gripping Rapunzel's right hand in his pants.

When he saw me he instantly back away from Rapunzel and pulled his pants up. I looked over at Rapunzel, her eyes wide, her shirt ripped open.

"What's going on here?" I demanded. Anger surging through my veins, threatening to explode. I couldn't look at Rapunzel. If I did, I would lose all rational thought right now and when it came to Rapunzel, I always had to be rational.

"Uh, nothing...", Flynn tried, buttoning his pants.

"It looks like you were forcing yourself on this girl Rider", I told him through clenched teeth. I saw Rapunzel tense from the corner of my eye and I knew that was exactly what was happening.

"It wasn't-"

I took a few steps forward to him and I knew I was going to lose my job here because I was about to take a swing at a student. I knew that because I felt my fist clench and I saw in my mind Flynn going down, holding his nose. Rapunzel's my girl. And he was about to understand that. Right when I was about to swing I felt a small hand on my elbow.

I whipped around, eyes blazing and nostrils flaring, and looked into wide, scared green eyes. Her eyes were pleading with me and I knew what she was pleading for. She didn't want to risk my job. She didn't want to risk me getting in trouble. She didn't want to risk us. I looked at her and clenched my jaw. Her eyes were watery and she whispered," Please don't."

I wanted to pull her into my arms more than anything and kiss her tears away. Console her and tell her that I will always be here to protect her. But instead I sighed.

"Get the hell out of here Rider", I told him, still looking at Rapunzel.

"Wha- I-"

"IF YOU DON'T WANT DETENTION FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE RIDER!" I roared and Rapunzel flinched. I saw Flynn glance at Rapunzel one last time before running out of the classroom.

When he was out of the room, I looked down at Rapunzel, my heart clenching at the look of fear on her innocent face. She seemed to visually relax now that he was out of the room, and I just watched her, frowning. What the hell was she doing? I wanted to shake her, I wanted to scream at her, but all I said was take in every inch of her face. She started to tear up again and looked away.

I pulled her chin back to me and I wiped her tears away with my thumbs.

"I-", she began.

"Don't", I shook her head as I bent down and heaved her up into my arms. She was practically weightless. I don't know why I lifted her and what I was planning, but I knew I just wanted to protect her and get her out of here.

As I turned to leave the room, cradling her in my arms, she wrapped her arms around my neck and buried her face into it's crook. I could feel her trembling as I opened the door to my classroom and slam it behind us as I walked down the hall to my quarters. I walked past my office and went to my room. I opened the door slowly and shut it behind me, locking it.

I walked to my bed and bent down so I could put her on the bed, but she wouldn't release me. Smiling slightly through my anger at Rider, I sat on the bed with Rose in my arms, and that was when the tears fully came. She dissolved, crying in my arms and holding me tighter. I felt my heart falter as I pulled her closer. I whispered words of comfort into her ear, which only seemed to make her sob harder, so after trying that, I settled on running my hand down her long blonde hair as she continued to shake and cry.

She didn't deserve this. This beautiful, innocent angel. She deserved flowers and knight in shining armor. She deserved to be told she was loved as a her virginity was being taken. Not by some asshole in a fucking classroom who didn't even love her.

After a while, her tears subsided, to be replaced by the occasional sob or sharp intake of breath or hiccup. She still clutched me, and that was fine with me - I wouldn't have let her go even if she wanted me too.

Soon, I noticed that her sounds had changed, and I looked down at her and smiled slightly when I saw that she had fallen asleep. I moved slowly. At first, she clutched me a bit tighter in her sleep, but I was able to shift her easily and get her onto my bed, covered, and rested on my pillow. I smiled when I pulled the cover up, and I considered what I would do about Rider - what I would do about this situation that we all have found ourselves in.

"Goddammit", I muttered to myself as I put my hand on my hip and ran that other down my face, looking at Rapunzel. She looked beautiful - her blonde hair fanning out and her long eyelashes resting on her cheeks. Her full lips parted only slightly as she breathed slowly in and out. My chest clenched.

Yes, this girl is under my skin, and I was in trouble.


So there it is! Hope you enjoyed!
