Chapter 2:

At lunchtime I look over at the table we sat at last year and sure enough I see Kate, Jose and Ethan. I smile but as I walk over to them I feel grey eyes on me. I turn and there he is. Staring at me, the funny thing is he doesn't even look away when I catch him, so I'm forced to look into those beautiful eyes again. After a moment I tear myself away from them and make my way to my friends. As I sit down next to Ethan Kate leans forward. "What was with that stare off between you and Grey, huh?" Oh god.

"Err - I don't know actually. Pretty weird right?" She gives me a 'I'm not buying it' face but I give her a 'Just drop it' face and she does.

"So Ana, how was your mom's?" Ethan says. I have been avoiding that question all day. I look up and they're all looking at me.

"Um - It wasn't great. It was nice to see my mom, obviously not in that state. She's back on her medication though." They all nod and give me sympathetic smiles. I let out a shaky breath.

"Anastasia?" I turn my head and see Mr Grey, hovering above me. "I know you have a free period last so I wanted to give you these." He places a small pile of papers on the table. "Read over them and after school we can go through anything you don't understand."

"Thank you. I'll see you after school." He gives me a small smile and lingers for a bit but then turns and walks away.

"Oh. My. God. He totally wants to fuck you." I turn to Kate and glare at her.

"Kate!"

"What? It's true." I glare at her again. "Ok, ok I won't say it again. But he does."

"He's her teacher, Kate. She should be getting with someone her age."

Kate rolls her eyes and sighs.

"And I suppose it should be with someone of a Latino descent, eh Rodriguez?" He glares at her and storms off.

"Was that necessary?"

"Look Ana, he needs to get it into his head that you're not interested. It's getting creepy." I sigh and carry on eating my lunch.

At the end of school I make my way to Mr Grey's room. I take a deep breath and knock. "Come in." I open the door and he looks up. "Anastasia, hi." Wow, he gives me a breathtaking smile. He really is gorgeous. I walk in and trip on my own feet. I smack my knees on the floor and everything spills out my bag. Shit. "Ana! Are you ok?" He grabs my arms and lifts me up effortlessly. I take a moment to just look in his eyes. He really is gorgeous. "Breathe, Anastasia." I release the breath I didn't know I was holding and move out of his grasp. My bare skin tingles from his touch and I have goosebumps.

"Sorry." I push my hair out my face. "I'm really clumsy." He bends down and picks up my papers and books and I squat and pick them up as well. Our fingers touch when we both reach for the same one and I gasp at the electricity I feel. I look up at him and his eyes are dark. He takes his hand away and I let out another shaky breath. I stand up and we walk over to his desk. I sit on the opposite desk and he looks at me confused.

"Sit next to me Anastasia. How am I supposed to help you when you're all the way over there." I slowly stand up and sit the other side of his desk, next to him. He pulls my chair a bit closer and our knees are touching. I'm getting a bit flustered whereas Mr Grey doesn't seem to be affected by it. We work through the papers and before I know it it's five o'clock. Ray will want me back now.

"Mr Grey I have to go now. If that's ok." I see a bit of disappointment on his face but I think I'm just imagining it.

"Oh right. Well, you still have a lot to catch up on so shall we meet again tomorrow?" He looks almost hopeful.

"Yeah that would be great. Thanks so much Mr G." He raises his eyebrows at what I just called him and before I can apologise he chuckles.

"See you tomorrow then, Miss S." He smirks. I give him a shy smile and walk out.

"Ana!" I hear Jose and turn around to see him running up behind me.

"Jose? What are you still doing here?"

"I had football training. Can I talk to you for a minute?"

"Sure." He moves closer to me and takes my hand.

"Ana, about today. What Kate said, I-" he moves even closer. "I just wanted to tell you it's true. I really like you Ana. I feel like we could have something special. Come here, let me show you." He leans in and kisses me, I'm unaware and then I try and push him off me. He won't budge. He slips his tongue into my mouth and his hands wander over my body. Tears are streaming down my face as he pushes me up against the wall. "Shh baby, you're going to like this." I am still trying to push away but he grabs my top and rips it. He picks up one of my legs and starts to grind into me, his hand travels down to my jeans and he unbuttons them, pulling the zipper down. I wait until I get my opportunity and kick him in the groin. He falls to the floor and moans in pain.

"Get the fuck away from me! Don't you ever talk to me again!" I kick him again and run away. Rain starts to pour down and before long my clothes are soaked. When I can't run any longer I just fall to the floor and sit there, crying. That brought back too many horrific memories that I tried so hard to wipe from my mind. My breathing ragged and painful, my limbs aching. I see head lights in the distance and look up to see a black SUV pull up. The back door opens and I see a familiar pair of grey eyes look down at me.

"Ana? Is that you? Oh god." He sees my clothes and I burst into tears all over again. He gets out and wraps his arms around me, pulling me inside the car. The warm interior is such a change from the cold sidewalk. After I calm down it doesn't take me long to realise that I'm still wrapped in Mr Grey's arms and that my top is ripped so that he can see my bra. I sit up and look at him. "Are you ok Ana? What happened?" I look at him for a minute and burst into tears yet again. He pulls me back into his arms and I cry into his chest. I wouldn't normally do this with my teachers but there's something about him that just makes me feel safe. When my sobs have turned into light sniffles I sit back up again. He looks at me with concern, like he cares about me. "Are you ok now?"

"Yes. Thank you Mr Grey."

"Call me Christian."

"O-Ok. Thank you Christian." He smiles warmly at me then looks down at my clothes.

"You need to get out of those clothes." My eyes widen. "No, no, not like that. You'll get ill if you stay in them. I have some of my sweats in the trunk that you can wear. We can go and get some coffee and you can change in there." I just nod and lean back in the soft leather seat.

A/N-Oops, I guess I couldn't wait haha. This is it I promise, no more story updates I swear. Please review and give me feedback on all my stories. Lots of love,
