"I like him, a professor with a whip. I bet his students don't fall asleep in his classes. I can see why you like Indian Jones. He wears tweed suites like you." I told him jokingly.

"What? I like him for more then that. I bet your students do not fall asleep." He told me smiling. In the process of the movie we both had gotten rather close to one another. I was leaning against him, and he had his arm wrapped around my shoulders.

"No they do. I teach them myths, Rafael. Those are stories, and they tend to put people to sleep." I told him smiling.

"Really? Surely not everyone has fallen asleep in your class." He told me.

"Do you want to hear a story about that?" I told him, he nodded. "Well I teach this introduction course of Greek myths, and it is apart of a list of classes that can fill a requirement that everyone needs to graduate. So I have quite a few people who have no interest in the subject taking it, and they think that it is going to be easy. So one day in class, it was the day after Halloween and I have a strict attendance policy for that class because I know that if I don't that no one will every show up. There were many people there and every single one of them fell asleep in the middle of my lecture about the Trojan War. The worst part is that I was so into the story that I didn't notice that everyone had fallen asleep, and when I finally noticed I was so mad that I picked up all of my things, and left them a note on the board and promptly walked at the door." I said.

"What did you write on the board?" He asked me smiling.

"I told them that since they had gotten their sleep in class then they didn't need it for that night. So I told them that at 8 am they would be turning into me a hand written paper that would be ten pages long on the Trojan War, and if it was one minute late, wasn't their hand writing, or if it wasn't handed in then they failed the entire course. I know I was a little cruel, but I was pissed. The students started talking about what I did and now no one will take my classes if they know that they will not fall asleep." I told him smiling. "I think I was to effective in scaring them."

"Remind me not to make you angry." He said smiling.

"So back to Indian Jones. Why do you like him?" I asked him.

"I loved that he saved the day, and saved the girl." He told me smiling. "When I was a kid I would pretend to be Indiana Jones." His face flushed when he told me this.

"Well I think that is adorable." I told him.

"I can see why you like Breakfast at Tiffany's. I think that the movie is romantic." He said to me with his face-flushed pink.

"I think that older movies are more romantic, and a little less cheesy then modern ones." I told him. "Let's change the subject, how was work, did you have a court case?" I could tell that he was embarrassed, and ever the Southern Belle that I am I wanted to make him not feel so awkward.

"No I didn't have a court case today. I just talked to some witnesses and the detectives on the case." He told me.

"So you look this snazzy all the time." I joked. I swear sarcasm and humor is a southern form of defense for awkward situations. Or maybe that's just me.

"You know, I have to look good for the detectives, and wearing a suit tends to do that." He joked back with a smile. Thank God, that could have been extremely awkward.

"Well, you have to show them who is in charge." I joked. Is this how normal people flirt, I think I have forgotten, it has been a while since I have felt confortable to do this with someone. Addy get a grip, just because this is the first real attempt at starting a relationship or something doesn't mean you should act weird. I don't know, why am I thinking of this as a relationship when I don't even know if he wants anything like that with me. He is really cute though and he makes me laugh. He dresses like someone who knows what he wants and will go for it. I am not ashamed to admit this, I think that he is fucking sexy in those suits and ties. All I can sometimes think about is him, and those suits and ties and taking them off of him. I honestly really like him and I have not known him that long, but he has pretty eyes. I can't do this. I have to think like an adult, and I can do that I am not 18 anymore with my first real boyfriend. I think he just said something. I felt my eyes get large and my ears burned.

"I am sorry can you say that again, I was a million miles away." I told him.

"That's alright," he said smiling, "I said, I spend enough on these ties that I have to show them off to someone." I know what he could do with those ties. I really need to stop that. Focus.

"Well, everyone likes a sharp dressed man." I said smiling at him. We both looked at each other and smiled.

"It is getting late, Addy. I do have court tomorrow morning and I have to color coordinate my outfits with my tie." He told me smiling.

"Well, make sure that your socks match too." I laughed and so did he. He got up and so did I. However, I had to stand for a moment for my leg to get steady. He grabbed my hand to help steady me. "Thank you."

I grabbed my cane that was next to the couch, and I walked toward the front door with him behind me. I couldn't help but think that he was trying to stand behind me to catch me if my leg went out. I couldn't help but become slightly angry by this.

"Rafael?" I asked.

"Yes?"

"I don't mean to sound rude, but please don't stand behind me." I told him.

"I am sorry. I was trying to…" He trailed off.

"No its fine," now I felt bad that I brought it up. "Its just that… I am sorry, I don't mean to sound angry about it. I just…" I took a deep breath, I don't want to sound like a bitch, but I am tired of everyone thinking I am helpless or that I need their help. He's trying to be helpful, I need to keep that in mind. "I don't like people trying to constantly help me. I don't need the help." I told him.

"I am sorry. I was not trying to make you feel like your helpless. I swear that was not my intention." He told me. Well now I felt really bad.

"I am sorry Rafael. I don't mean to sound bitchy, but I just felt like for a long time that I was helpless, and I am not now and its weird when people try to help me." I told him.

"It is ok. I understand that and I am sorry if I offended you. That was not my intention." He told me. I gave him a smile; I needed to change the subject.

"Thank you for coming. I had a lot of fun tonight." I told him smiling. I reached the door and was about to open it when he spoke.

"This is the most fun that I have had in a while." It seems like I didn't hurt his feelings with what I said, good I really like him.

"I'm glad." I told him.

"Would you like to get dinner tomorrow night?" He asked me.

"I would love too." I told him smiling. I opened the door for him to leave and he walked toward me. He wasn't more then a step away from me. He then leaned forward and kissed me.


I am soooo sorry. It has been a very long time since I updated. I have been very busy and I also lost motivation for this story. But I found motivation for it and I plan on updating more often. Thank you all for reading.
