All Chapters of At Break Time: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

"Shall we go to the library?” Peter approaches me in the hallway at the end of one of the classes."Ahn... Okay, it could be.” I answer, looking around, a little confused."I need to talk to you, alone. - He says, in a firm and convincing voice. I don't remember seeing him so serious."Fine. Is there a problem, Peter?" It's not really a problem... It's nothing serious. But I wanted to talk soon, and alone. - He reinforces.Loretta and Mellanie are on another floor of the building, in an extra class and in a different grade than us freshmen, so it wasn't difficult to follow Peter to the library without them, considering that the last few days we've only been hanging out together.Luckily, the space was practically empty. The huge library was perhaps the quietest and most private place on the entire campus. At this time, close to lunchtime, it was even emptier, with a maximum of four students, reading or studying." Here we are. You can talk - I ask, smiling lightly and gently." I don

"But here? No, too risky. Come on.”Max pulls me by the arm and I feel like a kid who's just got up to no good and is being taken by his father to the corner of his mind. He always looks around, attentive as a rabbit with its ears pricked."You always surprise me”. I whisper as I follow him.And after a few steps, always on the prowl looking like fugitives, I arrive at a new hiding place he has shown me. Okay, it's not exactly a hiding place, it's a room, a little bigger than the storeroom and the cafeteria bathroom, spaces we were already getting used to frequenting. And yes, it was no less risky than anywhere else within the university. I soon learned that it was nothing less than the faculty advisors' room. Can I already consider myself a student from another level? I smirk at the idea.We go in, he makes sure no one is behind us and then locks the door. Max starts to speak and I take the initiative before him. I leave the books and diary on one of the tables in the great room and

"So you know each other"." More and longer than I'd like." Max answers me, clearly troubled, his jaw clenched.As soon as I saw him storming out of the cafeteria, I followed him. On the one hand, I was finding it kind of cute that he was showing a slight jealousy flare. On the other hand, I rolled my eyes. We were too old for that. Or rather, he was too old for that kind of attitude. What did he expect from me anyway?" I don't know what you're thinking or what you expect from me, but nothing much happened. You saw a conversation between a teacher and a student".He looks at me like he could shoot me." Do you swear, Aria? Do you really swear?". He questions, in a mocking tone. " Teacher and student, just like you and me?There's nothing I can do but roll my eyes one more time."Max, I can't believe this is a blatant display of jealousy". I say, trying to look serious, without success, of course. The laugh escapes me and he looks even more furious."Look here. You need to understand

One thing was fact. We had a knack for going from college girls to hot babes in a matter of minutes. Once again, I borrowed a look from Loretta. I needed to go out urgently to go shopping and renew my wardrobe, my clothes were mostly casual, jeans or leggings, baggy blouses, some business-style button-downs. I could even say that I'm very relaxed and eclectic when it comes to dressing, but that simplicity now left me with no options when it came to enjoying some partying." This one was perfect on you! - Mellanie comments, as soon as I finish zipping the black dress, whose fabric adjusted perfectly to my body." It does you a lot of good to change your style a little, you know? You need to value that body that God gave you… - Complete Loretta." If I had that little belt... But God doesn't give wings to the snake, right! - Mellanie implies." They want to stop you two, if I'm not going to be feeling too much. - I joke, slightly embarrassed by the sequence of compliments.Loretta and M

I was surrendered and, yes, troubled on yet another layer. Another one of… I don't know, I've lost count. As my tongue tangled with Stephen's, my mind traveled in several directions.“Someone will see us. If they do, screw them too. And Max? I'll see you tomorrow. What am I going to do after today? He's already had a jealous fit when he saw me in an apparently innocent conversation with Stephen, what if he found out we kissed? I mean, that I've been kissed? Oh, okay, I kind of reciprocated. I found myself ensnared somehow. I don't know how to explain it, they are different sensations. I want to be in that kiss. A hot and at the same time sweet kiss. Something touches me beyond the chill down my spine and the famous butterflies in my stomach when I'm with Stephen. It's more cuddly than sensual, you know? Already with Max, I feel alive, burning, powerful, on fire. I wouldn't say it's just a boner, but… Oh, I don't know. Did I mention I can't explain? It's crazy, it just has to be."" So
