LUCIA

I was shaken by what I saw earlier, but I managed to remain composed as I continued teaching the class. 

I couldn’t allow my emotions to be turned upside down by a mere college student. That was beneath me.

I continued teaching, glad that my voice did not tremble one bit despite how I felt. I was about to round up with the class when my eyes darted towards Jeremy once more. 

I saw the girl run her fingers over his chin delicately while he gave her a small smile, and I instantly froze, feeling my insides clench with anger and discomfort. 

I really hated seeing him with someone else, and the level at which it affected me terrified me. I felt my hands clenched into fists by my sides before forcing myself to pay attention back to the class. 

“Alright, class,” I managed to say, forcefully tearing my eyes away from Jeremy and his little girlfriend. “Make sure I get your assignments in my mail by friday. Class dismissed.” 

The lecture hall was now filled with noise and chatter as the students picked up their bags and began to troop out.

I packed my stuff, picked up my bag, and began making my way out of the hall. 

Once I got to the entrance, I noticed that Jeremy had been making his way out at the same time that I did, and once our shoulders brushed, I felt a cool shiver run down my spine.

I looked up at him, but he was already looking down at me, and once our eyes locked, it was so hard to look away. 

His intriguing scent wafted its way into my nostrils, and my knees almost turned to mush at that moment.

I wanted to say something to him. Anything. But I had no idea what I was supposed to say. 

Before I could open my mouth to speak, Jeremy gave me a curt nod before making his way out of the hall, right into the arms of his girlfriend.

My heart crumbled in my chest as I watched the duo walk away, his arms across her shoulders and hers around his waist.

I blinked my tears away, clutching my bag even tighter as I walked to my next class, my hands trembling by my side.

I managed to finish my tasks for the day despite my frazzled state, and thankfully, I did not run into Jeremy or his girlfriend again for the rest of the day.

Unfortunately, for the few weeks that passed, it almost seemed like Jeremy was flaunting his new relationship in my face. 

Everywhere I turned, I saw the duo either holding hands or flirting with each other. They were almost inseparable, and I was not proud of the fact that it made me sick to my stomach.

I was jealous. I couldn’t deny it. I was jealous of seeing Jeremy with another woman, but I knew that was a price I would have to pay to keep my career intact.

I thought that despite how much it hurt to see Jeremy with that woman, I would be able to bear it. I had no idea how wrong I was.

I walked into class one morning, and what I saw next made my blood run cold. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw Jeremy kissing the daylights out of the girl.

My heart sank in my chest, and it sank even further when they were too engrossed in locking lips that they did not even notice my presence.

I cleared my throat shakily, and that was when they finally sprung apart. 

“Professor Darwin!” The girl exclaimed while Jeremy refused to meet my eye, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly. 

“This is a reputable institution. You should conduct yourself while you remain on this premises and behave accordingly.” I tried to appear stern, but I was not sure I succeeded as my voice came out strained and shaky, and it took everything I had not to break down in tears at that moment. 

I knew all I was saying was bullshit. Students were caught kissing and making out all the time on campus. I was just upset at what I just saw. 

“Sorry, Professor Darwin.” The girl muttered, and that conversation was over when the other students began trooping in. 

I watched as they took their seats before I began the class. Upset was an understatement of how I felt at that moment. 

I was angry. I was mad, and most of all, I was heartbroken. I kept stuttering over my words as I was totally distracted, and although it was not my finest moment, I took out all my anger and grumpiness on my students.

After I managed to finish my class, I stormed out in a rage, but before I left completely, I overheard some of the students whisper.

“What is going on with her?” 

“Why is she so mad?” 

I shook my head, ignoring their whispers as I walked out of the hall. I called a cab, headed straight home, my entire body trembling, and on the brink of tears.

I managed to pull myself together the entire ride, but once I got home, the floodgates opened, and once I collapsed on my bed, I began bawling my eyes out.

Disgust and ugly jealousy rippled through my insides as I thought of that girl sticking her tongue down Jeremy’s throat and fresh tears instantly trickled down my eyes as I buried my face in my pillow.

I felt so awful, and the urge to call my best friend and talk to her about it was strong. I sniffed, wiping away my tears as I reached for my phone.

My fingers hovered over Beth’s contact, but at the last minute, I let out a huge sigh, dropping the phone back on the bed. 

I didn’t want to be selfish. I had bothered Beth with enough of my problems. She needed to enjoy her honeymoon like she was supposed to.

I burst into another round of tears as my heart clenched painfully in my chest. I had no idea why seeing Jeremy kiss her so passionately made me hurt so deeply, but he did.

After crying for a few minutes, my eyes began to hurt, and I was pretty sure they were bloodshot. 

Suddenly, I heard the doorbell ring, and I let out a grunt, slowly wiping away the tears from my eyes. 

I got up from the bed and trudged lifelessly towards the living room, hoping that whoever was currently at the door wouldn’t give a shit about bloodshot eyes. 

I couldn’t help but wonder who was at the door, though. I wasn’t expecting anyone, and only a few people knew where I lived.

“Coming!” I answered once the doorbell rang once again, and when I finally made it to the door, I flung it open.

I did not expect to be standing face to face with my best friend, who was supposed to be away on her honeymoon.

My eyes went wide with pure shock as my jaw hung open. For a moment, I thought I was hallucinating.

“Beth?!” I exclaimed, my eyes growing so wide that I thought they might just pop out of their sockets.

“Hey, bestie!” She exclaimed with a wide smile, which showed off her pearly white teeth.

“Beth!” I screamed, practically jumping into her arms, and she let out a chuckle as she threw her arms around here.

“What the hell are you doing here?! I thought you wouldn’t be arriving till the weekend?!” I yelled in utter disbelief because that was what she told me last night.

She let out a loud laugh as we pulled away from the embrace. “I only said that because I wanted to surprise you.” 

“Well your plan certainly worked. I am surprised as hell.” I gasped, and I could have sworn that I nearly shed tears of joy at that moment. 

The smile slowly slipped from Beth’s face as her expression turned worried. “Oh, sweetie. Have you been crying?” 

I sniffed, quickly averting my eyes. “No. Of course not. Why would I cry?” 

“Oh, Lucy,” Beth placed a comforting hand on my shoulder as her expression turned sympathetic. “Shall we go inside and talk?” 

That was enough to put a smile on my face as I threw my hands around her. “I missed you so much, Beth. I’m so glad you’re here.” 

A soft chuckle escaped her lips as she patted me gently on the back. “I missed you too, sweetie.” She replied as we pulled away from the embrace.

I led her into my apartment, and once we sat on the couch, she turned to me, her expression worried and curious before she spoke.

“Alright, Lucy. Tell me what happened?” 

I let out a sigh, running my fingers through my hair as I felt my eyes sting. “Come on, Beth. I can not just bring up my problems when you literally just got here.” 

Beth’s expression softened as she placed her hand over mine, the warmth instantly seeping through my body. “I’m your best friend. That’s what I’m here for.”

    LUCIA Once Beth left, I slowly prepared for bed, and once I lay down, it didn’t take long for the thoughts that I had been trying to escape to invade my mind.I had made a horrible mistake, and I didn’t even realize it at the time. How could I be so stupid and careless?How could I have sex with my students on campus grounds? In my office? Without even locking the door? There was no explanation for this. I had lost my damn mind. That was for sure. I couldn’t believe what I had done?What if a professor or student walked in on us at the time? What would I have done then?The fact that nobody walked in on us did not make me less afraid. The fact that we did it on school grounds again and again was still horrible.What if someone had heard us from outside? My heart rate sped up at the possibility, and my hands and feet instantly began trembling at the possibility.If someone had overheard us from outside, it meant that we were not off the hook just yet. The thoughts of what could happ

    LUCIAMy moans grew louder as I continued shamelessly bouncing up and down on Jeremy’s length, my breasts bouncing with each movement.Jeremy's hands continued roaming around my body; my waist, back, and breasts as he kept worshipping me with his eyes, which had extremely darkened.“Oh, fuck, Lucia. You’re so sexy. You’re killing me. You’re going to fucking end me.” He moaned loudly as I continued bouncing maniacally on his length.Soon, my eyes fluttered shut as my entire body shuddered with release and Jeremy followed right after.I collapsed against me and he held me close as the sounds of our heavy breathing filled the office.“Oh, Lucia,” He grunted, cradling my face delicately in his hands. “You’re perfect.” He said before crashing his lips onto mine once again and it didn’t take long before he began fucking me all over again.Against the desk, against the wall, on the couch in my office. When we were done, I could barely walk and my head was still reeling from what we managed t

    LUCIADespite the fact that I asked Jeremy to see me after the class, I waited and waited for him to show up, but he was nowhere to be found.My heart sank deeper and deeper in my chest as the minutes ticked by, and I watched the door again and again as I almost lost my mind, waiting for him to show up.I knew he was with that girl. I could tell, and for a moment, I was tempted to leave the office, find him where he was, and drag him down here, but I figured that would be too excessive.Everything that was happening was my fault in the first place. I was the one who kept pushing him away. I was the one who told him to leave me alone, and he simply did what I asked.I honestly had no right to be mad at him. He was the one who should be mad at me. With those thoughts in my head, I let out a sigh, continuing with my tasks for the day while trying and failing to stop thinking about Jeremy. I managed to teach the rest of my class and soon, it was evening. Jeremy still had not shown himsel

    LUCIA My heart fluttered at Beth’s words, and I couldn’t help the tears that began welling up in my eyes.“Oh, sweetie. Don’t cry, okay?” Beth pulled me into a comforting hug, patting my back gently. “Just breathe and tell me what happened.” I pulled away and took in deep breaths just as she suggested before running my fingers through my hair in a thoroughly agitated manner. “I don’t know why I get so worked up over him. He is just a college student for fuck’s sake!” “Is this about Jeremy again?” She asked and I could hear the slight exasperation in her voice. I gulped, nodding instead as I was too upset to form any words. “Oh, sweetie. You really like him, don’t you?” Beth asked, her expression turning sympathetic once more. “I do. I really do,” I breathed, finally admitting those words out loud as my heart sank further in my chest. “That’s why it hurts so much to see him kiss someone else.Beth’s eyes grew wide as saucers at that. “What?! He kissed someone else?”“He did.” I

    LUCIAJeremy promised to leave me alone, and he kept to his word. Other than the unreadable stares that had become minimal, he wanted nothing to do with me.I should have been ecstatic. I should be jumping up for joy. If things continued this way, I would have nothing to worry about. My life would finally become normal again.Unfortunately, no matter how much I tried to convince myself that Jeremy and I were speaking for the best, I could not help but feel otherwise.Not speaking to him did not feel like the best at all. It felt like the absolute worst. As much as I tried to tell myself that not speaking to him bothered me, I knew I was only lying to myself.It bothered me a lot.I was in a bad mood all day, and the mere thought of staying in my apartment all by myself did not seem so appealing to me. I decided to go out and since I had nowhere else to go, I decided to visit the restaurant and despite the fact that I was supposed to be ignoring Jeremy, I found myself hoping that I wo
