The Professor Chapter 32
"Uh, I think I need to go number two."Maya's head shot up instantly, "What?""I said I need to go-"She waved a hand, dismissing the rest of his statement, "Can't it wait? I don't think I'm ready to hit the road yet.""Well, I could drive him home if you'd like." Derek softly offered but he shook his head quickly."No! I need to go and I need to go, NOW!" Jason's face was scrunched up in pain, his arms wound protectively around his middle.She eyed him suspiciously, this could be another trick of his to get her and Derek togethed alone for some reason, but when she opened her mouth to call Jason out on it, Derek beat her to the punch."There should be a stall at the back, use the first one. It's the cleanest. We'll wait until you get back."Jason shot Derek a grateful smile and unceremoniously clambered to his feet, "Thanks. You're the best, man." He ruffled a hand through Derek's hair and then he left in a hurry. As soon as he disappeared, she rounded on Derek."You do know that he'

Maya carefully parked her car next to the curb and shut off the engine before turning to face Jason who was already unbuckling his seatbelt, “You okay buddy?” She asked softly, trying not to startle him as she leaned over to open his door for him.He smiled weakly at her in reply as he slid out of the vehicle, “Yeah, I just...I’m sorry that you had to come all this way."She shook her head, giving him a small grin, "It's no big deal, just rest up and you'll be fine."He nodded, then bent low and raised his hand, "Thanks for today, Derek!" He called over to where Derek sat, his arm draped over the back of the driver’s seat easily, Derek chuckled, raising an arm in reply, “Hey man. Anytime."Jason grinned again before jogging over to the pavement leading up to the front doors of the frat house. As Maya watched his retreating back, she sighed softly, turned, and twisted the key back into the ignition. The engine sputtered once or twice before starting with a quiet purr and she smiled. S

The raucous sound of voices filled the air in the hall, Maya fought to listen to the story Kirsty was telling them but there were too many voices to make out all at once and too much background noise for her to try to get an idea of what the girl was saying. She eyed the people strolling in and out of the hall in contempt, they were senior students who'd decided to 'lend' their hall for the afternoon since theirs had an issue with the conditioning.Talk about American privilege. "What?"Maya blinked, snapping out of her reverie as the familiar voice spoke up beside her. "What?" She repeated and the brunette chuckled, shaking her head fondly."You muttered something...about privileges?" Kirsty added, a small smile on her lips. Two other eyes were staring at her questioningly and she felt her cheeks burn,Oh.She hadn't even realized she'd said it aloud, she mentally berated herself."I was uh-thinking about how lucky we are to be American citizens!" She smiled goofily, spreading her

"You can't keep asking to see me privately, you know? It'll raise suspicions."Maya casually dropped her bag on the sofa and plopped down on it, she crossed her legs, her fingers drumming against her thigh."So I can't ask to see one of my students to discuss something of importance." She smiled at the barely-there smirk on his face, watching as he loosened the tie around his neck. "I think you're being a little bit paranoid, Miss Greenley."He sat down on his leather chair across from her after pulling off his jacket and hanging it on the rack behind him. Maya eyed him carefully as he pretended to be busy with the papers on his desk, his fingers flipping each page in a pensive manner."I'm not, you should have seen the look Jason gave me." She shuddered theatrically at the memory. "My God, he looked like I had done something illegal or..." She trailed off for lack of an appropriate word. Jason had some sort of look in his eyes when she caught his gaze."You mean the blonde with high

"I can't believe you came all over your floor." She snorted and he rolled his eyes, leaning back to open a drawer, He raised his hands to reveal a box of tissue and she laughed even harder. He smiled back and she shook her head.What she found funny, she didn't know, but she felt like laughing regardless. The next few minutes were spent cleaning, and that included their bodies.Once Maya was sure she looked somewhat presentable, she settled on his desk, her legs dangling on both sides of his chair.He was busy with a particular file in hand, his fingers occasionally coming to push the glasses on the bridge of his nose. "I can't believe I missed the opportunity to see you fucking me in your glasses."He smirked but didn't say a word. The silence was interrupted by the loud buzzing of a phone followed by a familiar song, one she knew by heart."Oh, that's me." She jumped off the desk and rushed to grab her bag from the sofa. She rummaged through it for just a moment before pulling out

Maya turned left and then right, her lips were pursed as she examined herself in the mirror. Her date was in less than twenty minutes and while she had brought out the outfit earlier, she was beginning to doubt it would be appropriate for the occasion. She had done light makeup, wearing only dark red lipstick that matched the dress in bold, shiny lines. This was the second time he was asking her out for dinner and she had expectations on how the night would play out.Memories of their first dinner rushed into her head and she clenched her thighs together in response. Maya shook her head, and returned her focus to the mirror,For the first time in months, she'd let her hair down, allowing the shoulder-length curls to flow freely, she had also chosen less jewelry than normal. "Yeah, she's here. I'll give her the phone." She caught Gab walking through the open door from the mirror, frowning when the girl waved her phone in the air. "Mom wants to speak to you.""Oh." She gingerly took th

They came to a stop in front of a black table, the area was a bit secluded from the rest of the crowd and Maya smiled, endeared by his actions. He had chosen the same spot where they first had their dinner. "This will be your table for this evening. I am Cassandra, your hostess. Would you like to order any drinks for yourself while you wait for Mr. Grey?"Maya took the seat by the left, then looked up to smile at the hostess, "Oh no, it's quite fine. He'll be here soon, anyway."Cassandra nodded, "Of course. If you need me, just press the button on the left side of the table." She gave her another dazzling smile, this one lasting a little longer than the others as she turned to leave.Maya looked over at the table, finding it empty save for two wine glasses and a small pitcher, a small black menu card, a small pile of napkins, and a single white rose. She poured herself a glass of water, admiring the beauty of the flower before picking it up. She smiled at it, gently caressing the pe

"....you can use any bowl of your choice if you do not have a standard mixing bowl," Maya flashed the camera a bright grin before setting the steel bowl down on the counter, "Now, we'll get to mixing our flour, brown sugar...I always prefer using brown sugar rather than white granulated sugar." She waved her hand about, the other still poised over the bowl, "Next, we'll add in our baking soda, then there goes the cinnamon, and oh shit!"The mini pinch bowl containing the ginger fell from her hand, shattering when it landed on the ground. She heard Gab gasp loudly but ignored her, instead crouching down to pick up the broken pieces with a grimace."You're gonna cut yourself doing that. Here, let me help." Gab was standing in front of her, a brush and dustpan in hand.Maya shook her head, "No, no, it's okay...there isn't even much of-""You could still cut yourself." Maya stubbornly refused to look at her, instead busied herself with gathering the tiny shards in the floor, "I'm not th

The Professor Epilogue
|SIX YEARS LATER|"All flu patients please come to the second floor. I repeat, all flu patients please come to the second floor."The voice behind the intercom echoed loudly in the space and she walked over to Mrs Carlyle. Before she even got within a foot of her, the woman sneezed noisily into her kerchief."Mrs Carlyle?" She gently called and the woman snapped her head. "Please go to the second floor, the nurses there will attend to you quicker."She bobbed her head up and down, grabbing her bag and rising to her feet, "Oh, thank you, darli-" She sneezed again and Maya winced as the elderly woman walked away. "It's not even winter and the flu is spreading like wildfire already." Someone said behind her and she sighed.She knew who it was without looking back, "It's heartbreaking seeing all these patients come in looking so sick." She spun around and the blonde exhaled when he saw the look in her eyes."Are you still blaming yourself for Lucy?" He placed a comforting hand on her sho

"Come on, come on!" Jason yelled at them, urging them to run faster. Her legs pumped with each step she took, her heart pounding erratically. Derek was close behind her, his harsh pants could be heard in the quiet hallway. Today was their last exam and as fate would have it, they were all writing the same course. Psychology.They arrived at the lecture hall in time and Jason raced in first, followed closely by Maya and then Derek. The hall was packed full and the professor was already at the lectern, handing out exam sheets to the students. "Thank God," Jason groaned, moving towards the end of the queue. The line moved fast, each student receiving their sheet before settling on the chair.Maya was surprised at the number of people that showed up, they weren't usually this plenty during classes and she wondered why they didn't attend any either."Thank you!" Jason quipped, collecting his sheet and hurrying towards the rows of chairs.Alex looked every bit professional today, his dar
The Professor Chapter 79
Her mother had fallen in love with Esther Grey. She wasn't kidding, at first, the two women were quite reserved and spoke quietly to each other, sometimes speaking through Maya but after a few glasses of root beer, all three of them had loosened up and they were partying like a bunch of high school girls.They had booked a private room since Esther didn't feel comfortable being in the public eye, which she understood, and sang to their heart's content. After about an hour of jumping, drinking and screaming their lungs out, Maya decided that she had had enough and chose to lounge on the couch, rather preferring watching the two older women. She took a sip from her glass and sighed in satisfaction, her fingers were already buzzing and her vision was starting to double. She blamed the bottle of tequila that they'd added to their glasses."Maya!" Her mother called, swaying her hips lightly, "Are you sure you don't want to join us!?" She giggled drunkenly, the microphone in her hold almos

"Thank you!"She gracefully accepted the large plate of pork ribs and placed it on top of the table. Her mother made a moaning sound as she sniffed the air and Maya rolled her eyes at the childishness. "What!" Her mother flared defensively, "This smells good." She rubbed her palms together and licked her lips.Maya found the whole situation hilarious especially how last year, her mother was adamant about never eating pork because she grew up on a pig ranch and considered them her family. And now,She shook her head in amusement, unable to hide her smile. Ever since Derek showed up yesterday, her mother kept bugging her about him. Asking if he was he was her future son-in-law and complaining about how skinny he looked. Maya had told her like a billion times that they were just friends but her mother didn't buy it.According to her, friends didn't hug each other. Maya shrugged her off, deciding to take her out to dinner since it had been a long time since they had some girl's time. T

Air whooshed out of her lungs, eyes wide with surprise. She fumbled for what to say, her gaze darting between Gab and her angry-looking mother. She took another step forward, hesitantly going towards her mother. "What are you doing here-" She shook her head, realizing how wrong it sounded, "I mean it's a surprise to see you!" Her mother chuckled softly, rushing to embrace Maya tightly, "Oh, mija¡ I've missed you so much." She pulled back to properly look at her, "Look how thin you've become and why did you dye your hair!? I think you're studying too hard and this town is giving you strange ideas, you were better as a brunette. Gab told me everything about it." Maya instinctively patted the ends of the wig and then gave her friend a skeptical look. Gab shrugged carelessly, "What do you mean?" "She said you spent the entire night studying at the school's library." She patted Maya's cheek lightly, "I know you care a lot about your studies cariño but you care for yourself better, oka

Maya gaped dumbfounded at the door, unable to move from her spot. She didn't know what to do at that moment, Then it hit her! Alex!He would surely have a solution for this. Just as she scrambled to her feet, the door leading to his room flung open and a shirtless Alex walked out. His eyes still looked bleary and his hair was flying all over,"Maya?" He looked surprised to see her but the expression quickly turned into concern when he saw her wide-eyed state, "Shit! What happened?" He rushed towards her, cupping her face,She silently lifted her phone, positioning the screen in his direction. She watched as his eyes grew dark and his lips turned down slightly.He threw a wary glance at the door before releasing her. Maya grabbed his arm when she noticed that he was heading for the door and gently shook her head,"What if it's them?" He smiled reassuringly and pried her fingers off his arm before heading towards the door. She watched with bated breath as he gazed into the peephole be

"Here." She quietly watched as he placed the glass on the table, the red liquid sloshing slightly from the motion. He settled on the space beside her, taking a sip from his glass. The living room was dark, their only source of illumination was the fairy light adorning the walls.After the whole scenario, Alex walked her back to the penthouse where he suggested they grabbed a bottle of his favourite wine. Maya patiently waited for him, whenever he looked at her, she would offer him an encouraging smile, "Can I hold your hand?" His request startled her a bit but she quickly blinked it away and nodded. He took her hand and squeezed gently, "I don't even know where to begin." He did an awkward laugh, shaking his head from side to side.Maya sighed softly and squeezed his palm, "Start from where you feel comfortable.""You might need a drink for that." He said in a joking manner and she chuckled alongside, "I mean it, Maya. Drink," He motioned to her untouched glass.Maya looked between

"Yes."He turned away from her, his back facing her agonized face. The first tear rolled down her face, shaky gasps escaped her parted lips as she fought to keep her emotions in check. She itched to reach out to him, to touch him. But he didn't spare her a glance so she squared her shoulders and swivelled around.She shrugged on her sundress ignoring its wet state, she gave him one last look before rushing out the door. Her heavy footsteps padded on the ground, leaving wet trails as she walked. Maya slipped into the elevator, relieved that she was the only occupant. Her trembling fingers managed to press the ground button before clutching the straps of her bag tightly. Once the doors closed shut, she allowed herself to fall to the ground, her chest racked painfully and she heaved for breath,Maya sobbed until she felt like she couldn't breathe anymore, her vision was obscured by glittering tears and her entire frame shook. If she closed her eyes, she could still vividly see the emotio

Maya was awed by two things; one was the fact that the pool was above the ground with a deck and the other was that it was jacuzzi-styled. She floated around the pool, flapping her arms around as she played with the water. "So this place is open 24/7?" She turned around to face him. Alex was leaning against the wall of the pool, watching her intently."Yes." He answered simply and she scoffed in amazement.Maya began doing a backstroke, resting her head against the water. The fairy lights adorning the entire space made everywhere seem magical and she sighed, "If I lived here, I would make good use of this place." She heard a wet plop and cracked her eyes open, but before she could turn her head, he had already wrapped his arms around her. "Hey!" Maya squealed, kicking her legs in the water as she struggled to break free. Alex casually turned her over so that she was now facing him. Instinctively, she wrapped her legs around his torso and flung her arms on his shoulder,He didn't s
