All Chapters of My Professor's Obsession : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Today marked the final day of classes and exams before summer break, and Azalea couldn't have been happier about it. The relief she felt was almost tangible, like a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. To make things even better, the principal had announced a surprise two-week break. Sure, it wasn't a lot, but it was more than enough to brighten her mood. Azalea didn't need much to feel grateful, and this small reprieve felt like a gift after all the stress of the semester.As for her and Jackson, things had settled into an uneasy neutrality. Their interactions were minimal now, with him occasionally poking fun at her as he always had. But it wasn't the same. The lightheartedness was gone, replaced with something hollow and strained. Their once solid friendship now dangled precariously by a thread, and the thought of it left a dull ache in her chest.It was agonizing, but at the same time, it felt like it was the only option left. Maybe this distance, this detachment, was f

After a long drive and mini pit stops, Jackson finally reached the place he'd been keeping a surprise. A beach house.He pulled into the driveway of the beach house and noticed a car he didn't recognize. Jackson's face scrunched at the sight, but thought nothing of it. He hasn't been here in years after the law school incident but he knew they rented it a few times.He's hoping that's not the case this time around. Azalea let out a low whistle as she stared at the building."Woah, a beach house?""Well, it is summer so I don't see why not. Come on let's get settled in."They got out of the car and got their things. They approached the house after and Jackson pulled the welcome mat upwards, finding a spare key."Very suburban." She voiced. He grins, unlocking the door."Well hopefully my parents didn't rent it to anyone," he informs through a low mumble. Jackson opened the door and allowed Azalea inside first.He set their bags to the front of the door and eased it shut. Azalea took in

Azalea stirred in her bed, the thirst in her throat becoming unbearable. She reached for her phone on the bedside table, squinting to check the time. It's 1:30 in the morning. She sighed and pushed back the covers, the cold air hitting her skin.She's been restless all night. Seeing that Maddox, her professor, whom she kissed is actually Jackson's dad, was a never ending movie in her head.Not only that, the feelings she's trying to get rid of for Jackson.She tiptoed out of her room and down the hallway, careful not to make her presence known. She reached the bottom of the stairs and turned to get to the kitchen. However she was bumped into.There was crash and a sprinkle of liquid got onto her."Shit."Azalea realized that it was Maddox. He's dressed in a white shirt and grey sweats. The brown liquid from his whisky is staining his shirt as he tried to stupidly dry it off with his hands."Shit I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to," she quickly apologizes. All she wanted was water.

Jackson sat across from his mom, a cup of coffee in his hands as he fidgeted nervously. After he left his house he took a bit of a pitstop at the nearest pay phone since his phone is dead. He knew his mom would be the best person to talk to about how he's currently feeling."Hi sweetie!," he hears. Jackson glanced up, a lady with short brown and gold hair making their way towards him. He smiles upon seeing her."Hi mom." He got up, hugging her tightly."Oh my, I hope whatever this is isn't about your father," she mumbles. He exhales."No, actually." Noticing his tone of voice and saddened expression she frowned, setting a hand on his."Well I'm here for you sweetie, anything you need to talk about I'm here okay?" He nods. "So what is it that you have to tell me?"He said, taking a deep breath. "Remember that girl I always talk to you about?""Yeah, Azie is it?"He nods. "Yeah, well, I know you know I really like her and I discovered that she actually likes me back and we even kissed."

When Jackson arrived at his house he was not feeling it. He just wants to get Megan over with. Jackson went to the living room and she's sitting on the couch, clutching a cushion.Jackson gave her an empty stare as she met his gaze. She didn't care about what, or how he was feeling, as long as he's here."Let's go."She knew what he was talking about and she rolled her eyes, getting up from the chair."This so stupid and over the top," she mutters. Before she could pass him he grabbed her upper arm."If they're actually my child, I'll take care of it...but I swear to God if you're doing all of this for whatever fucked up reason you've got going on in your head I'll honestly hurt you, Megan."She stared at him, studying the look of anger he tossed her way. Megan pulled her arm out of his hold and scoffed."Whatever."They two of them were out of the house and making their way back to the hospital. Or well, the nearest one. The car rode was silent and Megan didn't care anymore at this p
