The weekend had flown by much faster than usual and before I knew it, it was Monday morning.

Needless to say, I found myself growing increasingly anxious with every step I took closer to History 101. I hadn't been able to get her off of my mind all weekend. Her scent, her hips, her lips. My mind was completely devoid of all thoughts except for those of her. I wondered if she felt the same or if she was just really high the other night and had made an honest mistake. Fuck. This is why I don't mess around with women...Make me think too fuckin' much. That was also exactly why I had taken a Percocet a few minutes before in the bathroom. It would only take a few minutes to kick in and calm my nerves.

I felt my heart lurch when I entered the classroom and took a seat at my desk. We made eye-contact immediately and we both looked away just as quickly. My body was jittery and her voice was slightly shaky as she addressed the class with a simple "Good morning".

I waited until she turned her back to jot something down on the dry erase board to study her appearance. She was dressed in a bright, yellow sundress with a pastel floral pattern that came just above her knees with a white cardigan over-neath. I smiled to myself as I thought about her in the dress from the other night; I had seen more of her body than anyone else here. The thought was enough to turn me on and before long I had to look away before I let my mind wander too much.

Moments later, the Perc had kicked in and I could feel the tenseness of my body slowly disappear and I was able to relax my mind a great deal. I surprised myself by actually paying attention to her lesson. It wouldn't do me no good just to sit and daydream about someone I was growing steadily confused about. Might as well try and learn somethin'. I know, I know. Can't believe it my damn self.

I was surprised how quickly class had gone by now that I had actually done something other than stare at the clock or wait for the ground to open up and swallow me whole. Before I knew it, the bell rang and my classmates were packing their bags to go home. I however, stayed put.

I waited until the room was empty before I stood to my feet and sauntered over to her desk with my bookbag draped over my shoulder. She was still erasing the board, and when she finally turned around she near about jumped a foot off the ground.

She clutched her heart and took a deep breath. "Jesus! You can't sneak up on people like that!" She looked at me only for a moment before she turned her attention to a stack of papers on her desk and began organizing them. However, they were already organized. I could tell she was just trying to ease her tension and buy herself some time.

She had taken a seat in her chair and I was still leaning over her desk. After a few minutes she finally realized that I wasn't going anywhere and she said, "Listen...about the other night..."

"What about it?" The effects of the pill were clouding my head of all rational thought and all I wanted was to bend her over the desk and make her see how much I wanted her now.

"I'm sorry if I upset you. I was just...really high." She whispered, careful not to be heard outside of the room. I took that cue to close the door.

"That why you did it?" I leaned my arms back against the desk just as I had done minutes before. "'Cause you were high?"

She opened her mouth to speak but hesitated, unsure of how to reply.

"That wasn't it, was it? Ya did it 'cause ya wanted to." I told her.

She looked up at me, wide-eyed and was obvious that she was just as nervous and on edge as I was, though I was hiding it much better now. Somehow, that gave me courage. I swooped in like a hawk hunting down its prey and went in for the kill. I pulled her face to mine and pressed my lips to hers just as eagerly and desperately as she had done days before. Except for this time no one pulled away.

We stayed like that for a minute or two. I could feel her shaking nervously as she moaned into my mouth. I breathed into her as I pulled her face up to mine and slid my tongue into her mouth, desperate to taste her until I was sure I'd never forget. I could feel my brain turn into mush and I lost focus on everything except for her.

However, that was short lived after we heard a sudden knock at the door. Startled me so damn bad I was convinced I was fixin' to have a heart attack. Thank god I shut the fuckin' blinds was the first thought that popped into my head. And by the look of relief on her flustered face I could tell it was most likely hers too. She looked at me, completely bewildered and full of emotion before wiping her mouth dry and changing her focus to the second knock at the door. She opened it, hesitantly.

"What are you doing here?" I heard her ask. The door was angled in such a way that I was unable to see who was on the outside, but I could tell by the deep voice that it was a man. She peeked in at me and swallowed hard before shutting the door behind her and continuing her conversation with Mr. Unknown.

I shut off my brain and tried to focus but could barely discern what was being said. I was able to make out her saying, "It's over. It's been over. You can't keep coming around" but that was it. After a few minutes, the talking stopped and she returned, closing the door behind her.

She was just as flustered as she had been minutes before. "You, uh...should go." She could hardly look at me.

"You alright?" I asked with concern.

"I'm fine. Just...you should go."

"Well... at least tell me ya liked it." I scratched the back of my head.

"Daryl." She glanced over at me, as if to say "get lost", but I didn't budge.

"Not until ya-"

"For chris'sakes," she interrupted me by grabbing my face and pulling it into hers. She gave me a single passionate kiss before she pulled away. "Now get out of here. Go!"

The corners of my lips turned into a satisfied smile as I bent over to pick up my book bag from the floor. I turned to look at her one last time. "See ya tomorrow." I smiled before disappearing into the hallway.
