Because you guys are amazing, here, an update . (;

The day went on and on. I've been in my class going through the basic first day things with my students, they seemed alright for seniors; they don't look like too much trouble.

All I've had on my mind was Alex though. If I could I'd slow down time. I didn't want to talk to her. I couldn't believe she is here. I mean damn; I love her, I do, but this is way too risky. What she did was sweet though. Coming all this way… for us. I smiled thinking about it and looked at the time. Six minutes till lunch and my break.

"Start packing up." I said to them. The kids started talking to each other, and two of them got up to put on their backpacks before looking at me.

"You look good Miss. Munroe, why are you single?" One of them said. I rolled my eyes with a grin.

"Sit down or when the bell rings you'll be the last to leave." I told the boy who spoke to me. The bell rang and I said my goodbyes to them.

Most left when the bell rang, but the boy who told me I looked good stayed. I raised an eyebrow at him and he smirked getting up. "I'm playing with you Miss." He smiled and left. I chuckled and saw Alex walk in looking at him then to me with a confused expression.

"What was that all about?" She frowned.

I sighed and went to my desk. "It's one of my students. She the door and take a seat." I pointed to the door then to the desk.

Alex shut the door and sat on my desk rather than the desk my students sit in. I rolled my eyes at sat up straight. "Tell me what's on your mind. What's going on? Why are you here? Just say what you need to." I said softly, looking up at her.

She is so beautiful; she had that dark brown hair that fell over her shoulders perfectly. Her skin was that amazing tan that suits her well. Her body figure was so sexy. Don't forget about her gorgeous face though, her little nose, her amazing smile that reached her eyes when she was really excited or happy, her chin and jaw line, I can go on talking about every little thing about her, but she started talking so I suppose I should be listening.

"I came because I love you and needed to get away from my father." She whispered looking down at her hands. Alex's father was the worst parent I've ever met. When she was little her father kept her locked up under the house in a barbwire fence. She never had a mother in her life; she died when Alex's was born. When she got bigger her father let her out and raped her constantly. I think Alex learned to not go home when he it was late and he was drunk. She realized she could stick up for herself. He's a big druggy and alcoholic.

I nodded and rested my hands on her knees. "Good, you needed to get out of there." I grinned slightly and bit the inside of my cheek.

"I know… Look, Sonny, I love you, ok?" And if you don't want this anymore then fine. Just know I'll never forget what we had and I'm always here. I'll always love you." Alex looked at me with hurt in her eyes then got up. "See you tomorrow Miss. Munroe." And with that, she walked out my classroom door.

I wish I had stopped her from leaving, but then again I'm glad I didn't. I can't put myself and her in a situation like that right now. I'm not ready to spoil everything and get caught, having to go to prison. Then I can never see her again and she'd be in a living hell.

One week later I was at home doing a lesson plan when I heard thunder. That reminded me of Alex, she's terrified of storms. I've been thinking of her all week. Seeing her in class was a pain. She doesn't even try to make eye contact with me anymore and she's failing miserably. I sigh and get up packing my things in a backpack. I grab my keys and walk out the door getting in my car.

Soon I get to my destination and look at the time, 1O:32 p.m. I bite my lip and look up at the house. It was small, but looked decent. I walked up to the door then stop myself from knocking on it not wanting her aunt to answer, who knows what she'd think. Seeing a light come on I back away and peek in the window. I smile seeing Alex in her little boxers with a t-shirt on, then walk up knocking on the door again before looking in the window, she didn't bother looking at the window, she couldn't see my anyways, I was in a bush almost. She froze and stared at the door before reaching over and grabbing a bat from behind the stairs. Her aunt must be really cautious if she has a bat. Thunder crashed and Alex jumped up walking to the door scared to death. Did I mention I'm soaking wet and freezing? C'mon Alex. I smirked and crossed my arms hearing the door unlock.

Alex opens it and then pulls her hand back about to swing, my eyes widen and I quickly grab her wrist. She freezes and then drops the bat on the carpet, thank God for carpet; I didn't want to wake her aunt if she was sleeping. She looks at me confused for a moment before wrapping her arms around me quickly. Alex pulls away just as quick though noticing I'm soaked. "Sonny! Get in here!" She yells in a whisper. "You're going to catch a cold! You're soaked, dammit." She flips out, getting mad and tugs me in the house, shutting the door. I smile because she's so protective and cares majorly about my heath. "Damn, babe, come on, let's gets you some warm clothes and gets you dried off."

This causes me to chuckle and I stop her. "I love you." I whisper and pull her into a hug, holding her tightly.

She rubs my back and pushes me away nodding. "Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're getting me wet, c'mon." She smirks and punches my arm when I laugh.
