The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The wrong kind of obsession
SageAfter Kaiden left, I expected some kind of reaction from the professor. Maybe a sigh, maybe a muttered complaint under his breath about Kaiden being too dramatic. Instead, he just stared at the door for a few seconds, his expression unreadable, before turning back to me with a look that made my stomach drop.His eyes were cold. Detached.Just like I expected him to be earlier. I was truly surprised when he entertained me for as long as he did.He moved away from me, putting distance between us like I was something he needed to avoid."Your sulking doesn’t concern me, Sage," he said curtly. "Neither does Kaiden’s tantrum."I swallowed the lump forming in my throat. "I wasn’t sulking," I lied.He didn’t even acknowledge my response. He turned on his heel, walking toward the staircase, but just before he disappeared from view, he cast one final glance toward the door where Kaiden had left.My fingers curled into fists.That single look, barely a second, barely anything at all was e

KaidenI mindlessly scrolled through old messages while waiting for his texts.He didn’t text back after I sent him the location and that made me a little sad because I was expecting him to barrel in here.I had left his house without a word, without a backward glance, hoping no, expecting that he would come after me. That he would notice my absence, realize something was missing, and care enough to follow.But the phone remained silent.I sighed, running a hand down my face. Maybe it was childish, maybe it was dramatic, but I didn’t care. Sage was always there, always pushing his way into spaces that didn’t belong to him, always acting like he had some special claim. And the professor let him. He entertained his whining, let him get away with things I never could.Something he could never do with me. I have to be nagging if I want him to spend time with me. I didn’t want it to resort to this but it looks like I have no choice.I needed to remind him, remind myself that I wasn’t just

SageI knew I had to be careful because when I saw him standing in the doorway of my apartment, leaning against the frame with that same smug confidence, I felt an odd mixture of excitement and apprehension.His piercing gaze swept over me before he stepped inside without waiting for an invitation.I shut the door behind him, folding my arms. “I don’t want to chat with you.”“Why is that?”I gaped at him like he was crazy, maybe he was.“Are you really asking me that? You sent your men to attack me. I was sent to the hospital twice on your account. What the hell is wrong with you?”“It’s not personal. You are just collateral damage.”“You are crazy for saying that. Get the hell out of my house. I do not want to chat with a psycho like you.”“You have no choice because I am in your house, Sage. Didn’t your mother teach you not to open the door for strangers? I could kill you and nobody would do anything. Kaiden doesn’t even care about you.”The last part stung, I admit. I subtly looke

SageHe and I sat across from each other at the dining table, a meal between us that neither of us seemed particularly eager to finish.I forced myself to eat, but my appetite had dwindled the moment I noticed the way he kept glancing at his watch. Every few minutes, he would steal a look at the time, his fingers subtly tapping against the edge of the table, his mind clearly elsewhere.I hope it just wasn’t on that bastard, Kaiden because I would be so fucking furious. I am here, eating dinner with him and you are thinking about another person.I set my fork down. “Are you expecting someone?”He looked up, startled by my question, before shaking his head. “No.”I wasn’t convinced. “Then why do you keep checking the time?”He exhaled quietly. “I was thinking of going for a walk.”A walk? That meant he was leaving. Going somewhere that wasn’t here, with me.“Do you want me to come?” I asked, my voice carefully casual, even as my chest tightened with something close to desperation.I wa

SageThe past few weeks had been a blur of back-to-back work, photoshoots, meetings, and barely any sleep. Ever since I left the professor’s house, I threw myself into my career with reckless abandon, pushing every other thought, every lingering emotion into the background.It didn’t help that the professor didn’t come like I expected him to. He made that whole show of asking me for my address just to bail on me?I was a fool for thinking that, a really big fool.It was easier this way. Work didn’t betray me. Work didn’t make me question my worth.But exhaustion was creeping in. I could feel it in my bones as I walking to my car after wrapping up another long day. Martin really meant it when I said I was at the peak of my career so he utilized the chance to book me till events were clashing.I had barely closed the door when I caught movement from the corner of my eye.Too late.A hand wrenched the door open before I could lock it, and something hard slammed into the side of my head

SageThe soft morning light filtered through the curtains as I lay in bed, listening for any sign of movement from the professor’s room. My heart pounded against my ribs as I replayed last night’s events in my head.It was perfect. Or at least, it was perfect for me. I had done everything to make him stay, to make him look at me the way he used to. He hadn’t even stirred when I touched him, and yet, despite everything, I still felt… anxious.Would he kick me out when he finds out I took advantage of him or would he interprète it as a show of desperation.That I reached the end of my ropes and had to do something to tame the voices in my head before they swallowed me whole.I heard the low groan followed by the rustling of sheets.He was awake.Finally.Forcing a bright smile, I walked into his room just as he sat up, rubbing his temples. He looked disoriented, blinking at me before running a hand through his hair.“What… happened?” he asked groggily, his voice rough with sleep.“You

KaidenThe steady beeping of the heart monitor was the first thing I noticed when I woke up again. The ache spread through every inch of my body and I remembered what landed me in this position.I groaned, shifting slightly against the stiff hospital bed. My ribs protested with a sharp pain stabbing through my side.I reached out and touched my face, my face was swollen and my lips were split. I closed my eyes to tame the anger that resurfaced. Then, my phone rang.My first thought was to ask Martin to get it for me but it dawned on me that he had left. That’s why the room was so quiet.He would have been making a series of calls to save my career from impending doom.I turned my head slowly, wincing as I reached for it on the bedside table. The screen glowed with a number I recognized instantly. I had saved it out of instinct when I first got that unexpected message, when he had asked for my location.I hesitated, my thumb hovering over the screen.Why was he calling?Curiosity won

Sage I was pacing, so sick with worry that I couldn’t breathe.I was so crazy to even do such a thing to Kaiden. Even if we were no longer talking, I was being cruel.I am cruel.I buried my head in my hands and shook them, I was fucked. My eyes widened when the door clicked open, and the professor stepped in.I couldn’t get a read on his face so my heartbeat increased because I had no idea what was going on in his head.He kept quiet and sat on the sofa, deep in thoughts. I couldn’t ask the question that was in my mind.How is Kaiden?I mean, did I even have the right to ask that?I should have gone with him but I didn’t, yet I was more curious than a cat.“Are you happy?” He asked.My brows furrowed, “excuse me?”“Are you fucking happy? He is in the hospital because of what you did!”“Me? How is that my fault?” I tried to defend myself.He chuckled, “How is it your fault? Are you fucking kidding me, Sage? You texted those people. You made them put Kaiden in the hospital.”“So what

The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Men have sleepovers
KaidenWhen I woke up, the sunlight was already spilling across the living room floor. My neck ached from the weird angle my head had been resting on, and when I shifted slightly, I realized why, River was curled against me, both of us tangled on the couch, our legs overlapping. His arm was still loosely draped over my waist, and for a second, I just lay there, taking in the quiet moment.It was strange, waking up like this. Peaceful. Natural. My body didn’t feel tense for once, like it usually did when I woke up alone in the echo of my own thoughts. Instead, I felt…warm. Not from the blanket. From him.He had stayed with me all night. We talked and got to know each other. There was nothing sexual about it even though I had been tipsy. He had been the perfect gentleman and had broken the ice with me.As soon as I moved, River stirred. His eyes blinked open slowly, landing on me, and then a lazy smile pulled at his lips.“You drool in your sleep,” I said, voice hoarse with morning.“I
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Tangled answers
Kaiden“You know, you have asked me that question so many times and yet, you keep wanting to know the truth. Why is that?” He asked instead.I shrugged, “I don’t know. Maybe I want to hurt myself by knowing the truth or I just want to know where I stand.”He shook his head like he was disappointed with my answer, “you can’t have your cake and eat it, Kaiden. The world doesn’t work that way.” I started walking towards the house, eager to escape this conversation. Yeah, I know I couldn’t have my cake and have it but I just wanted to.So much, it was killing me.I didn’t want to look at him when we stepped into my condo, not really. But I could feel the weight of his presence behind me like a shadow I wasn’t ready to shake. I tossed my keys into the bowl on the counter and exhaled, not sure why my chest felt so damn tight.“Do you want wine?” I asked, already reaching into the cabinet.“Sure,” he said. His voice was soft and devoid of his normal arrogance.I poured two glasses and hande
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Lingering heat
KaidenThe professor didn’t expect to see me. That much was clear from the way his eyes widened, like I’d caught him with his hands where they didn’t belong.“Kaiden?” River blinked, his voice caught somewhere between confusion and amusement. “What are you doing?”He wasn’t the only one surprised. I hadn’t planned this. But the moment I saw him sitting here in that dimly lit corner of the restaurant, laughing too easily with the guy across from him, this tall, handsome, and entirely too comfortable man. I couldn’t stop myself. My stomach twisted with something that felt a lot like jealousy. And maybe that was exactly what it was. I was too afraid to voice out the feelings I had twirling inside of me.I noticed he didn’t answer my question, so I asked it again, more directly. “Is this my replacement?”His eyebrows shot up. Nathan, whoever he was, looked between us awkwardly, clearly trying to figure out if he should smile or disappear into the upholstery.River composed himself quickl
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend The replacement
KaidenThe second I left the funeral, I had a lot of thoughts clouding me like smoke. The wind tugged lightly at my jacket, but I hardly felt it. My mind was a storm of thoughts. Michael’s words still ringing in my ears, Ethan’s death twisting like a knot in my gut.I pulled out my phone and texted the detective.Me: “Need to talk. Now.”He responded almost immediately.Detective Raines: “Name the place.”I sent him the name of the Italian place a few blocks away. Low-lit, quiet, and not too busy on weeknights. I needed privacy for this conversation.It had taken a toll on me. I needed to talk to someone about this. Could it be I saw something I shouldn’t or….I was really sure about it. I was more confused the more I thought about it. I thought the rivalry between Micheal and I had just because of the job.Apparently, it’s a little more than that.By the time I got to the restaurant, the detective was already there, sitting in a booth near the window. He looked up as I approached, g
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Fall when you die
KaidenAfter my conversation with Sage, I wasn’t sure what to feel.He’d looked so earnest, so... broken, even though he tried to cover it up with words that felt like resignation. And for some reason, the thing that kept looping through my mind wasn’t what he said about wanting me or even what he said about the detective. It was what he said about the professor.That River had already started thinking about someone else.He didn’t even try to convince me to stay.That realization dug into my chest like a shard of glass. I kept wondering if it had meant nothing to him. If the way he touched me, kissed me, looked at me, it had all just been physical. A game. A passing thrill. And I hated that I couldn’t figure out whether I was more upset at him for possibly seeing it that way… or at myself for wanting it to be more.Was I that easy to replace?Did I really feel something deeper for him? Or was I just clinging to what felt good because everything else in my life was falling apart?My p
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Goodbye? Maybe
SageI continued, quieter this time, “I mean, I guess I’m glad things are finally working out, for the three of us. Or at least, they were. You accepting what River and I have, trying to be honest about what you want… I thought we were finally reaching some kind of peace.”He didn’t meet my eyes. “It didn’t mean I stopped caring.”I swallowed hard. “But it did mean you don’t want this. Not really. You want monogamy. Simplicity. And I can’t give you that. Neither can River. Maybe the detective can.”He finally looked up, sharp and unreadable. “You think I should give him a chance?”I tried to smile, but it faltered. “He wants you. And he’s not caught in all this mess. Maybe he’s what you need.”He didn’t answer. His silence felt louder than any rejection he could’ve given me.I couldn’t believe I was saying this in the first place but isn’t that the growth I had embraced. If being with us doesn’t make him happy then he is free to go ahead and do his own thing.It’s my job as his best f
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend More than skin deep
SageFor the first time in a long time, things felt… quiet.Too quiet.The professor and I had fallen into this domestic rhythm, waking up in the same bed, sharing coffee before our classes, and eating dinner together in the evenings. He kissed me before he left. He kissed me when he returned. We made love sometimes. It was predictable. And it was driving me crazy.At first, I welcomed it. I thought, maybe this was it, stability. Maybe if I just leaned into the calm, I’d find peace. Maybe I didn’t need the storm that was Kaiden. Maybe he and I were enough.But each time he smiled at me across the breakfast table, I saw Kaiden’s smirk instead. Each time he touched me, I imagined Kaiden’s hand too instead, rougher, hesitant, real.I couldn’t lie to myself anymore. I didn’t just want Kaiden in my bed. I wanted him in my life. I wanted the whole messy thing, his silence, his fire, his contradictions.So I did the one thing the professor hadn’t expected.I texted him.Me: Can we talk? Jus
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Bruising
SageI didn’t think he’d find me so quickly.Raines showed up like a shadow after dusk. I was by the vending machine outside the lecture hall, watching the spirals reject my snack, when I felt his presence behind me.“Sage,” he said, his voice deep and low like it carried weight. I turned, heart instantly drumming. “Got a minute?”I nodded, stepping aside, away from the line of students still waiting for coffee. He gestured for us to take a walk, and I followed, unsure what this would be about. I didn’t even know how I felt about him anymore, Kaiden’s friend. The one who made Kaiden smile in ways I hadn’t seen in weeks.The reason why he wanted to break away from something we had going on.“I want to ask you something,” he said, once we were out of earshot. “About the people Kaiden mentioned… the ones that tried to hurt him. Do you remember any faces?”“What?”“You know, Kaiden mentioned it the other night.”“Who are you, really? Why do you want to know this?”He sighed, “I am sorry.
The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend Silent Night
Kaiden The night was too quiet. The kind of quiet that made your thoughts louder, louder than your heartbeat even. I rolled over in bed for what had to be the tenth time, sheets twisted around my legs, sweat clinging to my skin despite the cool air filtering in from the slightly open window. Sleep was a distant dream, and my chest felt heavy with too many thoughts, too many questions. With a sigh, I pushed the covers aside and sat up. My feet hit the cold floor. I needed air. I padded barefoot through the hallway, careful not to make too much noise. I didn’t think anyone would be awake, but still, habit. The house was dim, bathed in silver from the moonlight pouring through the windows. I opened the sliding glass door to the balcony and stepped outside, letting the cold night wind slap me awake. God, I needed it. The city buzzed below, lights flickering like stars that had fallen and decided to settle among the streets. I leaned on the railing, arms crossed against the br
