8. Mystery Girl

Warning: this chapter contains smut (including a blowjob, sex and a praising kink because... go hoe or go home)

"What?" Historia had her eyes widened in shock as you giggled at her expression. "No way!" She exclaimed before leaning towards me and whispered. "No way you're dating a professor!"

You shrugged and took a sip of your American Coffee. After getting to the bar with her, you started talking about everything that had been going on since you had met at the party. Talking to her was so easy, it felt as if you had known each other for years.

She had this kind of aura around her, not to mention her cheerful attitude that had somehow improved your mood even if the last days had been very stressful. It was so comforting that you ended up telling her everything about Eren and Jean and Mikasa, you just needed someone to talk to at that point.

She was such a sweetheart, she listened to you and waited till the end to comment, you didn't really know how she would've reacted so you could only hope that she would've kept it to herself.

"Wow." She muttered. "That's... a lot. And you didn't tell anybody? I would've exploded." She commented impressed and you nodded. "I mean, your best friend would judge you?"

"It's not even judging, it's just that she has a crush on him too." You explained and she rolled her eyes. "I know she'd be pissed, Eren's the only man I've ever seen her liking so I don't know if she'd ever forgive me."

She tilted her head. "I don't understand though, it's not like she made a move on him or anything like that, she didn't explicitly tell you that she liked him so... what's the problem?"

You blinked confused. "Well, I'm not sure she'll see it that way."

"Then she's not a real friend, is she? I would be happy for my friend and I'd be mad with myself because I didn't make a move in time. Also, how is it your fault if Eren picked you instead of her when you had never tried anything with him to begin with? I get it if she feels sad and everything, but if she's as mature as you claim she is, she'll definitely come around." She grabbed your hand and squeezed it.

That was also true, you had never looked at it that way, probably because you were too afraid of her reaction, to begin with. "You're probably right, I should definitely talk to her but I really need to find a good time to do so." You took a deep breath and placed your head against the palm of your hand, why were things so complicated?

"I get it, give it time and try to enjoy your relationship, by the sound of it you guys seem so in love." She said with a dreamy voice, you nodded with a giggle before taking another sip of coffee. "For anything, you can always talk to me although I'm not much of a talker, I'm actually pretty shy."

"Really?" You asked surprised, she didn't look like a shy person at all, after all, she was the one who talked to you first and helped you in a moment of need. "I would've never thought that! You are such a nice and direct person!"

She shrugged with a big smile on her face. "It's probably because of my girlfriend, she always teaches me how to speak up and never let anyone step on me, you know?"

"You have a girlfriend?" She nodded and you squeezed her hand. "That's great! Have you guys been together for a long time?"

"A year and two months, we clicked almost immediately and got together. She's the best, I think you two would get along pretty well, she dropped out of college so it's hard to see her around, but if you give me your number I'll make sure to invite you next time we hang out." She proposed as she handed me her phone, it was probably the most genuine invite you had received all week. If you couldn't spend time with your friend group because of Jean, you surely could make new friends instead.

So you saved your contact and gave her phone back. "That sounds great! I really need to get a bit distracted by everything that's going on." You snorted. "I need to talk to Mikasa and tell her everything, and I also have to talk to Eren about his brother."

"His brother?" Historia tilted her head confused.

"Yeah, he's his half brother and he asked me to help him get closer to Eren or something? But that's not my thing, I don't even know this man and he was a bit pushy about it too." You rolled your eyes. Your talk with Zeke had left you with a bad feeling about him, what did he want from Eren so desperately? It couldn't be anything good, maybe your boyfriend was right when he had told you that he didn't want anything to do with him. "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm here over-sharing while you probably just wanted to have some relaxing time."

She chuckled and waved her hand in the hair. "Oh please, it's nice knowing that someone else is having a hard time, not that it's good, but it's eye-opening."

You tilted your head. "What happened?"

"Well, it's difficult to have a relationship with another woman in a college where voices spread way too quickly." She snorted, her clear eyes were fixed on the cup in front of her. You could see how sad she looked as she was remembering everything that had happened. "It's hard, it feels like everyone is against you for some reason."

It was nowhere close to what you were experiencing and you wished you could help her somehow. "I'm sorry about that, but I'd love to hang out with you guys"

Her frown disappeared almost immediately and smiled softly, she really was a beautiful girl. "For sure, you should also bring your boyfriend."

That was something you hadn't thought about. Even if you were to tell Mikasa about Eren, what were you going to do then? Bring him to your parties? Introduce him to the group? That would've been weird even for you and for some reason, you couldn't even picture him talking to your so-called friends.

But Historia seemed different, she was so easy-going and honest, it made you feel better about the whole situation. "If you don't feel weirded out about him being a teacher."

She stopped to think about it. "It's not that bad, I'm sure he's cool." As she said those words, your phone's screen turned on signaling you a new notification from your boyfriend. "Talking about the devil." She joked and you offered a small smile and read the text.

From Eren:

Are you still in class? Do you want me to come to pick you up when you're done?

You softened at how sweet he was, you kinda felt bad for skipping school since you knew just how much he cared about your education. You didn't like to take advantage of that and even Eren had tried not to give you any favoritism during classes, but it was easy to say that he passed some of his old notes to you.

To Eren:

I'm not in class right now, long story. If you want to come to pick me up, we can hangout before dinner?

It was for the best that you talked about what had happened immediately instead of dragging the matter on and on, he needed to know and you had nothing to hide from him.

From Eren:

Give me 10 minutes, I'll park behind the school.

He was probably panicking, you didn't need to hear his voice to know. "I have to go now, he's coming to pick me up." You grabbed your bag and started to look for your wallet, but Historia stopped you immediately and got up.

"Don't worry about it, let me pay today." She reassured and you copied her action. "We can get coffee another time and next time you'll pay, how does that sound?"

You raised your eyebrows. "Sounds like a lot of nagging from my boyfriend if I skip classes again." You joked and she frowned.

"But... you don't like studying."

It took you a moment to realize what she had just said, it was something so simple yet an excuse you had never used before to skip classes. "Yeah, but I still need to."

She tilted her head. "Why? Ymir didn't like studying either, that's why she dropped out and now she's working, you could do the same, you know?"She suggested and you chuckled a bit.

"I don't know, I don't think I'm ready to find a job yet, they mostly hire people that have gone to college anyway." You had never even thought about getting a job, your parents had always wanted you to graduate and you had basically convinced yourself that you had to do it. "Well, I have to go now, I'll see you soon." You gave her a quick hug, she was very short and thin, and she was probably the cutest girl you had ever met.

She waved her hand and went to pay for your drinks as you walked out of the building, you had to walk a few blocks to reach the school, you just hoped Eren hadn't arrived yet. It took you just a few minutes to get there and, by the time you got to the parking lot behind the school, he had just stopped there.

You got in the car and greeted him with a small peck on the lips. He looked so handsome even if he wasn't wearing his usual suit to teach, he was in sweatpants and an oversized t-shirt. "I missed you at school." You pouted as he started the car, the air in the car felt tense for some reason.

"I missed you too." He forced a small smile and you stopped to look at his face, Eren was no good at hiding his emotion, it had been proven the first day he had set foot back in that school after his father's passing away. You weren't sure if he was just like an open book or if you were good at reading him, because no one else seemed to notice his real feelings.

"You look pale." He should've rested at home, but for some reason, he was stressed. "Should we get some takeaway and watch a movie?" You tried to cheer him up, if anything you could've even slept at his house with some excuse.

He was so focused on driving that he didn't even spare to look at you once. "That sounds great."

What was he thinking about? It was concerning because there was no way he could know about what had happened and it wasn't like him to be so lost in thought when you were next to him. Maybe he was mad? You sure hoped that nothing had happened to him. "Are you maybe angry because I skipped class?" You decided to ask him with a little voice, you knew you were in the wrong but even so, you didn't want him to treat you like a little girl.

He frowned and turned to face you for a small moment before going back to driving. "What? No, that's not a problem. You're doing fine at school, you can afford to skip a few classes." He said so nonchalantly that it surprised you, if it wasn't that, then what was wrong with him? "But, why did you skip? Did something happen?"

You pressed your lips together, how could you tell him exactly what had happened without making him worry too much, he was very sensitive on the matter of his half-brother. "I just met a friend of mine and she asked me to grab a coffee together." You decided on a half-truth, you could've told him the rest once you were at his place.

"Were you with Mikasa?"

"No..." you trailed off. "Her name's Historia, I've met her at that party a few weeks ago, you know?" No he didn't, nobody knew her because you had just learned her name that day. Most people were just aware that you had met a girl, which was true, but other than that it was all a lie.

"I thought that was our excuse to see each other? You hanging out with the mysterious girl from the party." He chuckled a bit and you smiled.

"Well, yeah, but now I know her and she's the sweetest girl ever! She's asked us to hang out with her sometime."

Eren stopped in front of his place and looked at you confused. "Us?"

You opened your mouth and closed it back immediately, it had slipped your tongue and you hadn't thought about what his reaction could've been, after all your relationship wasn't meant to be known by anyone. "Yeah, I might've told her about... us." You scratched the back of your neck as he stared at you in surprise.

"Oh god." He let out a loud sigh. "Alright, let's just hope she won't tell anyone else, if this comes out..."

"I know." You placed your hand on his leg to reassure him. "But she's trustworthy, I can assure you she won't say anything."

He looked somehow disappointed, you had seen that look a few times, mostly when you were late with your assignments, but the feeling was always the same. "How can you be so sure? You don't even know her." He got out of the car and you did the same.

"You're right, I don't." You admitted as you followed him to his apartment. "And I'm sorry, it was thoughtless of me, I guess I just wanted someone to talk to, you know? Since Mikasa and Jean are off limits and I only have you." You tried to explain.

Once you were in his living room, you both sat on the couch in silence. Eren didn't know what to say, he was scared that voices would've spread quickly and one of the two would have to suffer the consequences of their actions. But at the same time, he was aware of how hard it was on you to keep this distance from your friends. "It's ok, I didn't want to sound too harsh." He grabbed your hand and interlocked your fingers together. "I'm worried, that's all. If you want, you could tell your best friend about us, I think that way you could be a little more at ease with her and Mikasa seems reliable enough."

Yeah, she was. But that wasn't the problem.

If you were to tell her everything... chances were that one of you would've moved out and never talked to the other. "I can't tell her." You muttered embarrassed and he tilted his head confused. "She'd never forgive me." You couldn't know for sure, but you guessed she wouldn't have been happy either way since she idolized him way too much.

Eren was taken aback by your words since he had always thought that you two were so close that you didn't keep secrets between the two of you, in fact, he had suspected that you had maybe told her something. He was surprised to hear you talking about her that way, but mostly how anxious you looked. "Would she take it so bad if she knew that you are in a relationship with a professor? Aren't you girls all giggly and excited about things like this?"

You frowned, was that how he saw girls in his classroom? So he was aware of all the gazes he attracted from his students, that kind of annoyed you but you knew better than opening that subject since Eren had made it clear so many times that he wanted you. "We're not all like that." You pointed out with a serious look. "But that's not even the real problem! If it were any other professor she would've judged me silently, but not with you!"

He blinked confused. "Did I do something..? Is it because I'm always nagging you?"

"I wish." You rolled your eyes and squeezed his hand. It wasn't your place to tell him about Mikasa but what could you do? "She has a thing for you and I'm afraid she'll get mad and she'll think that I'm trying to get back to her for what happened with Jean."

"What happened with him?"

"Well, when we were still together, he would treat me like I was a disposable thing. Going out was the priority, his friends came right after and I was the last of his thoughts and I wasn't at my best during that time. Mikasa was always with us and Jean gave her a lot of attention, I know it's childish but I was jealous because they were way closer than me. Then, I heard Jean saying to our friends that if it weren't for me, he would've gotten with Mikasa because she's amazing and gorgeous and stuff, I told her and she kind of blew it off saying that he was probably joking and I was overreacting." You sighed and placed your forehead on his shoulder. "I know it sounds childish, but I don't care about that anymore, I broke up with Jean a long time ago because I was sick of being pushed away every time and I don't have anything against Mikasa either, she's my best friend and that's one of the many reasons why I tried to tell myself that I didn't like you and I couldn't be with you at first. But now... I wanna be an egoist and be with you even if that makes her sad! I don't wanna hurt her but I wanna be happy with you."

He looked at you preoccupied. "That's ok, you don't have to do anything you don't want to." He placed his hand on your back and slowly caressed it to try and comfort you. "I didn't know that but I'm glad you told me."

You raised your eyes to meet his ones. "I'm sorry for not telling you sooner, I was scared you would've thought that I'm childish."

His smile was enough to reassure you that that wasn't the case at all. "I was 19 once as well, you know?" His question sounded more like a way to remind you that he wasn't much older than you, although that only made you giggle a bit.

"Did you? And what did you do? Study every single day to get a compliment from Professor Levi?" You teased and his cheeks turned of a slight pink, almost unperceivable because of the light in the room. "You did!" You exclaimed sitting on his lap so that you could face him. "I bet you were one of those students who always raise their hand when asked a question in class."

He rolled his eyes playfully. "Yeah, but I could never give the right answer." He admitted and you widened your eyes in surprise, based on his attitude in class you would've never guessed that he was a slightly better version of you, at least he tried. "He was a strict teacher, I bet you wouldn't last a week with him."

"Make it a day, he'd probably make me cry." You admitted and then placed your hands on his cheeks, knowing that he wasn't that good of a student either made you feel a bit better but then again, you were still uncertain about your studies, and people around you were confusing you even more. You got closer to him, your faces a few inches apart as he was looking at you with a glim in his eyes and, as you kept approaching him, he slowly closed his eyes and pursed his lips towards you, you touched his nose with yours jokingly. "Then how did you know you wanted to be a teacher?"

Eren opened his eyes confused. "What?"

"I mean, if you weren't that good of a student and Professor Levi wasn't the nicest to you, what made you think that maybe you wanted to be a teacher? You must've thought about it." You muttered playing with his brown hair that was tied in a small tail as usual, it was rare for him to let his hair down because it was a bit long for him. "I was just wondering."

He had not been expecting that question, in fact, he had thought that you were going to kiss him, but he also knew that you were having a hard time with your studies and he wanted to help. "You don't have to find your way immediately, you know? As long as you keep studying, you can always choose a different path. Of course, you could also leave college and start working, that isn't necessarily bad since-"

"I know, I just wanted to know how you ended up being a teacher."

Maybe you had been a bit harsh, but your head was already filled with many worries and his advice wasn't going to help, you needed to think it through by yourself. Eren himself had always made it clear that he would've helped you no matter what you wanted to do, but of course, he was a bit partial and you knew he wanted you to finish college. "Well, it's a bit embarrassing to explain." He scratched the back of his neck and you blinked confused. "It was thanks to Professor Levi, he was a real inspiration for me at that time and I really wanted to be like him growing up."

"So, before you met Levi, you didn't want to be a teacher?"

He shook his head. "I wanted to be a policeman, I wasn't particularly good at it though, I found out I had a big interest in history during my last year of high school and decided to give it a shot in college without having a real plan for the future." His raspy voice was so magnetic, you could've listened to it for hours without getting bored and you were also glad that he opened up to you. "I'm not gonna lie, I kind of hoped I could do the same with you, being the role model Levi was to me."

"Aw, that's so sweet." You pressed your lips against his cheek. "I'm thankful to you really, you've helped me more than anyone else." You snuggled against his chest and sighed. "But still, I'm not sure what to do once I'm out of here. My parents want me to get a degree." Eren could've interrupted you and asked something but he decided to stay silent since it was the first time you ever talked about your family. "In High School, I had made my mind clear, I wanted to do something with art but I was always criticized because of that from both my parents and my older sister, who has a law degree."

He wrapped his arms around you. "Even so, you should follow your passion, I've seen some of your paintings and they're amazing."

"Eh, those are pretty old, last year I bought an iPad to draw digitally." You giggled, you didn't have enough time to draw on paper anyway. "It's just stressful, you know? I find it hard to study boring stuff like economics (said an economics student), and not only that! I don't have a favorite subject, I hate school and I hate being so anxious all the time because I don't know what the hell I am doing,"

"Hey, it's ok." He tried to comfort you. "You don't have to figure out everything now, take your time." He lowered his head and placed a soft kiss on your hair which made you smile. If that wasn't love then what was it?

Sure, your relationship with Eren had a rough start, but after more than a month together, you were totally whipped and couldn't imagine breaking up with him just like that. He was the sweetest, the only person you could count on at the moment. "You're amazing." You muttered with your face basically pressed against his chest, he was so warm that it made you feel sleepy. Suddenly, another thought made its way into your mind and you knew that the small moment you were having was going to be destroyed. "Mhm, on another note. Something did happen today." You raised your head and looked at him in the eyes, he was suspiciously calm as he just waited for you to speak. "Your brother talked to me today."

Eren took a deep breath. "Please don't call him that."

"Sorry, I meant Zeke. He stopped me today to talk to me, which was weird because I barely have his classes, maybe once a week?" You were just beating around the bush at that point, it was one of your biggest problems whenever you were faced with a difficult situation. "He... knows about us, he saw us the other day in the parking lot when I got in your car. Now that I say it out loud, I find it so creepy."

"That is creepy." He agreed, but there was no sign of amusement in his voice but also on his face, it made you wonder if it was okay to tell him, their relationship was already a disaster. "So, what did he want? Did he threaten you or something?"

"Not at all." You gulped, you didn't want to tell him that Zeke had basically grabbed you, there was no reason for you to antagonize him even more. "He asked me to help him get closer to you, he looked really desperate to ask me such a thing."

The man didn't react at first, he probably didn't expect anything like that, in fact, he thought that Zeke would've threatened you to end your relationship or to tell everyone. He really didn't know what his half-brother was after when he first came here, but if it was to get closer to him... Eren wasn't exactly up to it.

"He is not getting close to you, I'll make sure of that." He placed a small kiss on your forehead.

"You really don't want to talk to him and get to know each other?"

It wasn't Zeke's fault, Eren knew that, it was his father's fault for never telling him about his previous family. He kind of felt guilty too, Grisha had left Zeke and his previous wife, totally disappeared from their lives, and started a new one with him and his mother. His half-brother hadn't experienced paternal love as he did, how could he look in the eyes knowing that? "I don't know what to say to him."

You hummed and patted his chest. "Hey, it's up to you. If you don't feel comfortable around him, I don't see why you should interact with him." You tried to comfort him. "But still, you should be honest with him and tell him that he has to stop."

"You're right, I owe him at least that." He sighed. "Thank you." He kissed your temple once again and you smiled softly. "But enough with all these problems, I'm sick of them, I just want to spend some time with you before you have to go."

On the outside, he looked a bit cold, but on the inside, he was like a big teddy bear, or at least to you. "Yeah, it sucks, I wish I could stay here longer without raising suspicions, but it's for the best if we lay low." You explained before cupping his cheeks and giving him a peck on his soft, pink lips.

His muscles immediately relaxed under your caring touch, he was always surprised by the calming effect you had on him. His big hands rested on your waist as you sat more comfortably on his lap, your mouths moving in complete sync and the only noise that could be heard was the smacking of your lips every now and then.

"You're gorgeous." He said completely out of the blue, your heart skipped a beat as he moved his mouth on your neck, kissing and sucking on it while your hands gripped at his hair. He grunted in pleasure as you adjusted yourself on his crotch. "Fuck, you're doing it on purpose."

"Maybe." You giggled, provoking him had become your new favorite hobby, it was so funny whenever he tried to keep himself composed even if you knew that he wanted nothing more than fucking you. You were guilty of doing so on many occasions, there had been a few times in which you had turned him on during class, and most of those times were by accident. "I wanna make you feel good." You let your hand slide down from his shoulder to his stomach and, finally, on his lap. Your fingers massaged his lap until they found his erection already hard and pulsing.

Eren muttered under his breath but you didn't exactly understand what he was trying to say, instead you pulled away and changed position kneeling down right in front of him. Your hand was still clasped around his cock still covered by his sweatpants, you knew his whole body after spending so much time together and it felt so comforting. "I like where this is going." The man sighed once you started to undress him.

You smiled innocently as soon as you pulled down his pants and boxers, leaving his erection exposed and in full sight. Its tip was slightly red and with a few strokes it only got redder, your thumb brushed on it making Eren moan in surprise. It was nice seeing him like that, everything depended on you for once, and there was so much satisfaction in knowing that you were making him feel good.

"You like this?" The answer was obvious, but you wanted to hear his voice. You lowered your head and stuck out your tongue, licking his dick from the base up to the tip while keeping eye contact with him.

"Fuck yeah." His hands clenched into fists and his voices seemed trembling which made you smirk amused, you repeated the same action again and heard him snort loudly. "I want to feel your lips around me, please." One of his hands found your head and caressed it tenderly. "I'll go crazy if you keep with the easing." His fingers brushed against your cheek so lovingly that you wanted to just snuggle against him again.

"As you wish." You were quick to take action and take as much as you could of him with your mouth, he grabbed your hair to help you move. You tried to get him as deep as you could without feeling like you were gonna gag on him, your hot tongue kept moving around his cock as you tried to suck in your cheeks.

From time to time, you tried to take a look at Eren only to find him watching you with lust in his eyes, his pupils were dilated and his chest was moving irregularly, you could also feel him twitch inside of your mouth. "You're so good." He whimpered every time you took him a little deeper. "You're doing such a great job, such a good girl."

There was something about getting praise from him that made you feel all fired up to do even more, it sent a shiver down your spine. With that motivation in mind, you started to move your head faster, trying to keep a quick pace to pleasure him, it took a lot of focus but feeling him hardening was so satisfying that you couldn't hold back anymore.

"Y/n, if you keep going I'm going to come." He leaned towards you and kissed the top of your head, but you already knew that since you could feel some drops of pre-semen on your tongue, it tasted salty but you weren't going to spit it out. "That's it." He breathed as you sucked in your cheeks again.

Your hands gripped at his thighs to keep yourself balanced, you could feel his muscles tensing with each passing second meaning that he was about to reach his climax. With one last movement, you pushed your head as down as you could, the tip of his cock hitting your throat and finally coming into your mouth as you took in his juices. You could hear him whimpering and moaning and you sucked on his dick one last time before pulling away.

His eyes were fixated on your face, you probably looked a mess with saliva running down your chin mixed with his cum, you were taking deep breaths since you had gagged a bit and started to feel a bit nauseous. "You're amazing, you know that, right?" Eren used the sleeve of his sweater to clean you up before pulling you up and back on his lap. "I don't know how I got this lucky, but I want you to know just how important you are to me." He kissed you softly.

It felt like your heart was going to explode any time soon, you couldn't even begin to explain how good it felt to hear him say that. "Please Eren." You sighed feeling his hands work their way up from your stomach to your breast, tasting it over your bra. "I want to feel you again." You moved your hips against him and felt his cock getting hard again, a small smile made its way on your face as you reached your pants and started to take them off.

"So eager, are we?" He kissed your jaw and grabbed the hems of your sweater before taking off your sweater and bra with it, leaving you exposed. "So beautiful." He kept kissing every inch of your body, from your collarbone to your breast. His lips surrounded your nipple as he licked it and sometimes bit on it.

Waves of pleasure moved your entire body, your back arched and your eyes rolled back. "Stop teasing, I need you now." You whined getting up to slide your pants down along with your panties. "Please Eren."

He smirked and gripped at your waist, helping you position yourself so that your entrance was touching his tip, you were so wet that it was so easy for him to penetrate you, his cock slid inside of you so deep that it made you moan out loud, there was no way you could hold back. "Fuck, you're sucking me in."

Your hands grasped his shoulders as you started to move your hips, he had his arms around you to help out but you could feel that he was barely thrusting into you, but you needed more, way more. Your entire body felt on fire but it still wasn't enough, you were craving to feel him deep inside of you, you wanted to ride him so hard to satisfy both of you. "Can you please go faster?" You whispered to his ear, you could've sworn that at those words you felt him hardening inside of you.

"As you wish." He snorted and kept you in place while starting to move his hips against you so fast that you had to surround his neck with your arms to sustain yourself, it was a feeling you couldn't even begin to describe, it was as if he was getting deeper and deeper with each thrust. "You're clenching around me, I won't be able to keep going for long."

You cupped his cheeks and shut him up by kissing him, this time it was rougher than before, way sloppier and a mix of muffled moans. Skin against skin, you could almost his heart beating just as hard as yours, nothing else mattered but the two of you together. Your muscles started tensing as you quickly reached your climax, your walls pulsed around him once he came as well. He thrust into you a few more times before pulling away, your lips still connected and with absolutely no intention of letting go.

When you did so, you both started taking deep breaths, your chests moving irregularly against each other, his sweaty forehead pressed against yours and eyes staring directly into each other. "I like you so much, you have no idea." You whispered under your breath, if things weren't so complicated you would've loved to officially introduce him to all your friends as your boyfriend, brag about him to people and invite him to meet your parents even.

Little did you know, Eren was thinking the same exact thing, he would've loved nothing more than to have a normal relationship with you and build a future together if things went well. "Stay here for the night?" He tried but he was aware that it was not possible for you to stay with him.

"I wish." You snorted. "But unfortunately, I've already spent too much time here."

"Then, let's just stay like this for a while, then I'll drive you home." He hugged you tightly, the soft skin of his hands caressing your bare back and giving you shivers.

"Alright, just for a while." You yawned and snuggled against his chest, the warmth of his body was so comforting that you almost fell asleep, but instead you decided to keep your mind occupied. "I want to talk to my parents about college, I'm not sure about what to do but I want to hear their input as well."

He placed his chin on your head. "That's good. Let me know what they say, I'll definitely talk to Zeke as well, it's for the best if we take care of everything as soon as possible." You nodded in agreement and he smiled. "Could you imagine if we never talked outside of school?"

You groaned. "I don't wanna think about that, I'd still be miserable."

"Me too."
