SageThe next day, I didn’t waste time stewing in my thoughts. I had decided that confronting Professor Rivers was the only way I’d get the clarity I desperately needed. Did I do something wrong? Well, I was about to find out. After his final lecture, I waited outside his office, my pulse quickening with each passing second. As the last student trickled out of the hallway, I stepped inside.He looked up immediately, a small, polite smile spreading across his face. “Sage? What brings you here? I thought Novatech didn’t need you today.”“I know,” I said, closing the door behind me. “I came because I need to ask you something.”His smile softened, and he gestured toward the chair opposite his desk. “Ask away.”I sat down, clasping my hands together tightly in my lap. “I saw you last night. Downtown, near the club. I waved at you, but…” I trailed off, unsure how to phrase the rest without sounding pathetic.His expression didn’t falter. He leaned back in his chair, fingers laced togethe
KaidenI shook my head as I slipped into my car, gripping the steering wheel so hard my knuckles turned white. Not today, I told myself.Not today. Sage was clearly trying to pick a fight with me, pushing me away like it was some kind of sport. But I wouldn’t let him. I knew him too well to fall for that nonsense.I know I neglected him for a while but it was because of work. I hardly texted and I got that he was lonely for a while but that was no reason to act the way he did.Still, his words echoed in my head, prickling like needles under my skin. He had hit the nail on the head. Yeah, it might have looked like I was having fun with my friends but we were working.I was going to ask him what that performance back there was? Embarrassing himself in front of the professor? Was he that thirsty for the guy’s attention?I didn’t want to make it a big issue because I was already hanging on by a short thread because of the girl that was hitting on him.The thought made my jaw tighten as
SageI couldn’t sleep, I couldn’t think, I couldn’t breathe. My mind continuously worked, stealing any chance I had for rest. Every attempt to close my eyes only brought more loud thoughts into my head. I was confused and it felt like everything was slipping out of my control.The one release I wanted was the fight with Kaiden but even he gave up on me. I knew I was being a brat but fighting with him would have given me the satisfaction I wanted. I wanted to beat myself up, I was so frustrated by what the professor said to me that I was going to say hurtful things to my best friend.It made me a bad person because in that instant, I didn’t care about him or his feelings. I care about feeling better. I was selfish.I hated what the professor said to me, it was hurtful and harsh. It made my chest so tight and it was difficult to breathe. All the times that we have spent together meant so little to him? I meant so little to him? I thought he was doing all of that because he liked me bu
KaidenHeartbreak. All through my life, I haven’t experienced what this was. Not even with the people around me. My model friends too have way too much time on their hands than to be tied down to one person, their words not mine.While I valued myself to be the type of person who can’t feel anything, I know what I was feeling right now was heartbreak.I also know it isn’t supposed to feel like this. It isn’t supposed to be so wrenching so much that I thought my heart would snap into two. I was so riddled with guilt that I sought out the one person I needed to talk to. I didn’t want to spend my free days fighting with him when his company was the only one I could tolerate.The moment I left the bar, I had one goal in mind, to make peace with him. The fight earlier had been stupid. I’d let my insecurities and jealousy push me into lashing out, and I couldn’t stand the thought of leaving things unresolved. He mattered too much to me.When I arrived at his house, the lights were off.
SageFor three days, I stayed holed up in my apartment. I couldn’t bear the thought of facing the professor after what I had done. I had embarrassed myself and made a fool of myself at the same time. I was nothing more than a fool who had bitten more than he could chew.It’s been days after that but I still couldn’t forget how desperate I was begging him to fuck me. I mean I could have just laid on his feet and plead because what in the hell was that?What the hell had I been thinking? Marching over to his place in the middle of the night, pouring my heart out, only to be met with that cold, infuriating response. I’d practically thrown myself at him like some lovesick fool and yet, nothing moved him.I groaned, pressing my hands against my face as I lay sprawled on the couch. My phone sat on the coffee table, lifeless, its screen dark. I’d called Kaiden more times than I could count, but he wasn’t answering. It was as though he had vanished off the face of the earth.So because of the
SageHe broke the kiss off and pinned me with a gaze, « whatever you are thinking right now doesn’t matter. This is what you wanted right? »« I know it’s what I wanted but I want to be sure that it’s what you want. »« Shut up, Sage. »I nodded and he grabbed my neck, pulling me closer to him with his gaze pinned on me.« The first time I saw you, I wanted to shove my cock in your mouth just to see how those eyes would water for me. You think you have liked me from the start? Mine is the worst. »His words should have sent me running to the hills or even rethinking this but my mouth watered. I was so happy to have been the object of his fantasy for so long.He has liked me from the start, is that why he gave me a job? So he would have to see me everyday?I was so filled with happiness that I took initiative."I want to taste your cock" I said, and dropped to my knees, I carefully zipped down his pants and my eyes widened from the size of his cock.I thought Kaiden’s was huge but this
SageHe nodded, gliding his mouth up and down every inch of my cock. Then he popped it off and breathed, " That's what I was driving towards, it defeats the purpose of me sucking you off.""No," I chuckled, "I meant an actual drink," His lips swiped his wet bottom lip as he gazed up at me with a confused expression. "You think now is the time to offer me a drink? When I am sucking you off? »Yeah, I wondered that too. Besides the fact that I had no alcohol except an old bottle of whiskey that Kaiden left here months ago.« No, » he shook his head. « I don’t want a drink. » he gestured down to my still hard cock, « now, do you mind? »I nodded, « I don’t mind. »He resumed sucking me off but I was a little sad now. I wanted the alcohol for a little courage. I looked down at him just to find him staring at me.He sighed, « okay, I want to drink. Where do you usually keep your drinks? »My face lit up, as he slid off the bed.« It’s in the bottom of the last drawer in the kitchen. »« O
KaidenKaidenHead tipped back, eyes closed, lips shivering. He didn't even notice what I'm doing. Grinning to myself, I continued my descent down his body, making more hickeys on his pelvis. Naturally, I had to stop to suck on his cock for a few minutes, because I just couldn't help myself. It was so good and tasty... But then I forced myself off of it, kissing his inner thighs."Flip over for me, beautiful," I breathed, sitting back and spinning him onto his stomach.He went gladly, and I returned to kissing and nipping his sweet, warm, blushed flesh, making a few more hickeys on the taut cheeks of his ass."You're biting me an awful lot..." he rumbled, pushing his butt up to my mouth like he liked it.I chuckled, cupping him in my hands and spreading him open while he gasped. "Oh, how foolish of me. I came back here to lick."Wasting no time, because seriously, I've been wanting to do this since I set my eyes on him, I lowered my lips between his ass and feathered my tongue over h
RiverThey say the way to a man’s heart was through his stomach.But that wasn’t the same for the beautiful boy under me. He liked sex so much that you would think he makes money from it. Lifting him off my dick, I moved my hips, spreading my legs while he knelt in between, slumping against my leg with a tired sigh."Why'd you stop..?" He pouted, and it was as sexy as it is adorable.I ignored him."Put your cock in me." He breathed out the words in a rush, grabbing the lube and stroking some quickly onto my dick, magnified in its state of tumescence. The thing is fucking huge right now, and rock solid, which has me quivering below the waist.I was trying so hard not to unload on him.He bit his lip, scooting in closer while I aimed my cock between his ass. He wiggled his ass and lined it up in front of my cock, he pushed it in, and we both groaned out loud."Fuck me..." he hissed, but I was already doing it, pumping into him with his palms on my chest. "Harder... faster... deeper, l
SageKaiden left after making sure I had eaten and wasn’t going to drown myself in my own misery. He didn’t say much about why he was leaving, just something about giving me space. I appreciated that. For all our unresolved issues, he still understood me better than most.But even after he left, I didn’t feel better.I couldn’t stop thinking about what happened in that boardroom. The professor’s words echoed in my head, over and over again, like a curse I couldn’t shake.A mere student.I knew he had to say something to protect himself. I knew he was trying to get us out of trouble. But the way he said it, like I was nothing, like I didn’t matter…I couldn’t let it go.I needed to see him.Even if I wasn’t sure what I would do when I got there.The drive to his place was a blur andI knew I was running on pure emotion, but I didn’t care. I needed to get this out of my system.When I arrived, I barely had time to knock before the door swung open.He stood there, looking at me like he al
KaidenThere are many ways to describe emotions, words crafted to fit fleeting, intangible feelings. Some people might call it satisfaction, others contentment. But the specific emotion I was feeling right now? Bliss.The kind of bliss that came when everything was finally going my way.I have never felt this before even when I first landed my modeling job, all I felt was courage to pursue my dreams.I ran a hand through Sage’s hair, careful not to wake him. His breathing was steady, his face relaxed in sleep, unaware of the chaos I had carefully set in motion.There was only one way he would let me back into his life, if he needed me so I made him need me.Yes, I sent the picture to the school board.I am not proud of myself.Okay, yes I was. I was damn proud of myself to have thought of it.I hadn’t expected things to escalate so quickly. I thought the board would at least investigate, maybe suspend the professor, but no. He was a slippery bastard, wiggling out of it with some ridi
SageI barely registered the professor tapping me on the shoulder. My mind was too tangled in his words, the word, mere student still bouncing off the walls of my head."Sage." His voice was quieter than usual.I blinked, forcing myself out of my thoughts, and turned to look at him. "What?" My voice came out flat, emotionless."We should go."I nodded, falling into step beside him. Us going means everything has been resolved but has everything really been resolved. I cannot believe I was tagged mere after everything we have shared.I should thank him for saving my behind but my mind was elsewhere. My feet moved on autopilot, and the world around me felt distant, like I was watching everything unfold through a foggy glass.He must have noticed."Is everything okay?" he asked.I gave a small nod.He stopped walking. I didn’t notice at first, I kept going until I heard him sigh. When I turned, he was standing there, arms crossed, watching me carefully."Your expression doesn’t look plea
SageThe walk to the conference room felt like the longest of my life. My hands were clammy, my heartbeat erratic, and my stomach twisted in knots so tight I felt like I might be sick.I had never been in trouble before, not in high school, not in college. I was the kind of student teachers trusted, the kind that never caused problems. So why the hell was I walking toward a meeting with the board like some kind of delinquent?The admin refused to give me any information when I asked. I’d tried pressing her for details, but all she offered was a polite, tight-lipped smile before gesturing for us to continue walking.The professor, on the other hand, walked ahead like he had nothing to fear. No tension in his shoulders. No panic in his stride. Just complete and utter composure.I wished I could say that calmed me, but it only made me feel worse.Was I the only one freaking out here?Does he have a plan?Why were we even in trouble?By the time we reached the waiting area, my hands were
SageThe moment we pulled into the school parking lot, I yanked the door open and slipped out of his car without so much as a backward glance. No goodbye, no small talk. Nothing. I needed space, time to shake off the unsettling feeling in my chest.What does he mean he couldn’t get jealous? Does he feel anything for me at all?Were we just playing a game of cat and mouse till we were both tired? The whole thing just ruined my mood for the day, I couldn’t even force a smile right now.As I hurried toward my first class, my phone buzzed in my pocket. With a sigh, I pulled it out and glanced at the screen.A text from him."You didn’t kiss me goodbye."I stopped walking for a second, my lips parting in disbelief.Why should I?He said he didn’t get jealous. He acted like nothing bothered him, like nothing could shake his unbothered existence. So why was he suddenly playing the part of a neglected lover?Or was he just toying with me?My fingers hovered over the screen, a sarcastic reply
SageThe car was silent, save for the hum of the engine as we drove down the familiar road to campus. I didn’t think much of it at first, I was too wrapped up in my own thoughts, still reeling from Kaiden’s unexpected return. My anger has subsided, thanks to whatever the professor was doing to me so I was no longer angry but indifferent to my friend.But the longer the silence stretched, the more I became aware of the tension in the air.The professor wasn’t just quiet. He was brooding.I glanced at him from the corner of my eye. His hands gripped the steering wheel a little tighter than usual, his jaw locked in place. His entire posture screamed restrained irritation, but I wasn’t sure why.It wasn’t until I lifted a hand to turn on the radio, anything to break the awkward quiet that he finally spoke."What was he doing at your house?" His voice was calm, almost too calm. "Did he sleep over?"I jerked in my seat, completely thrown off by the question."What? No!" I shouted, my react
SageI was still riding the high of my victory over my bullies. If I could stand my ground against them, then I could handle anything. The power, the confidence it gave me, it thrummed beneath my skin like an untamed current. I went to bed feeling invincible, convinced that things were finally turning in my favor. So much that I forgot about texting the professor that I was going to bed. I figured he was so busy that he couldn’t be bothered with what I was doing.But still, standing up for the first time in my life made me feel more alive than I could have hoped. All my life I have been put down and mocked for how I looked or something they just weren’t happy with. They constantly used me as punching bags to make themselves feel better and I took it because I was weaker than them.But today, I wasn’t weak. I had power over them and I protected what I love. It made me extremely happy.That feeling lasted until the morning.A sharp knock jolted me awake, and I groggily sat up, glancing
KaidenThe camera flashes faded as the photographer called for a break. My jaw was clenched tight, my entire body taut from holding poses for hours. I grabbed a bottle of water from the nearby table and took a long drink, letting the cool liquid soothe my parched throat.That was when my phone vibrated.I pulled it out of my pocket and unlocked the screen, my eyes narrowing at the message from my PA. There were pictures attached, multiple ones.I clicked on them.The first image was of Sage getting into a familiar black car. I swiped. Another photo.Sage laughing in a coffee shop, sitting across from the professor. Next. A picture of them walking side by side on campus, too damn close. My fingers tightened around the phone as I scrolled through the series, each image making my blood boil.And then the final picture.Sage, stepping into the professor’s apartment building with an overnight bag.I exhaled sharply through my nose, gripping my phone so tightly I thought it might snap in h
