My Professor

Eric Bradford

Savannah's POV:

As I walked in the building I was sort of nervous to see Mr. Bradford. I slowly walked down the halls and to his classroom. As I walked in and to the desks that my friemds were sitting in, I felt his eyes follow me around the room. Once I sat down, I looked up and made eye contact with him. We both quickly looked away. I turned my attention to my friends, they were talking about Nicole's party. My mind drifted off to how amazingly hot Mr. Bradford looked today. I wanted to look back at him, but I noticed he was already looking. The bell finally rang and Mr. Bradford finally started class. I wasn't paying attention to anything he was saying, I don't even know what I was doing the whole two hours of class.

After lunch I walked down to Mr.Bradford's classroom. As I knocked on the office door, he said to come in. I walked in and saw Mrs. Vince, our dean of students. "Savannah, honey, how are you?" she said getting up and giving me a hug. Her and her husband are great friends with my parents. "Good, how are you?" I asked smiling. "Great, I came by to find you. Tell your mom that my husband and I can't make it to your Lake House Barbecue that's in a week," she pouted. "I'll tell her," I nodded. She smiled, "In the mean time I'll try to find a teacher to go in my place." And with that she left. I sat down in front of Mr. Bradford, he looked up from the paper he was grading. "What were you saying yesterday?" I asked raising my eyebrows. "Nothing, forget about it," he said as he looked back down and continued grading. "No, Mr. Bradford there was obviously something you had to say to me, so say it," I said taking a seat in one of chairs that was facing his desk. I looked at him with a I'm-waiting-for-you-to-talk look. He sighed and got up and walked over to where I was, I stood up and faced him. We were face to face looking each ther in the eyes. "I wanted to say that I can't take a spoiled unmature brat like you seriously," he said with no emotion on his face. I felt hurt and stinging in my eyes. I looked down trying to hide my watery eyes. I looked up to say something, I opened my mouth but nothing came out. I felt a tear roll down my cheek, I quickly wiped it away. I couldn't take it anymore, what he said hurt. I quickly got my stuff and made my way out of his office, then his classroom. I went straight to the door leading to the parking lot. The tears were following down my cheeks. How dare he say that about me, he doesn't even know me like that. I got in the car and drove home. When I got home I watched a little t.v, then went to bed.

~Next Day~

I woke up to Nicole shaking me gently, trying to wake me up. I turned around and faced her squinting my eyes because it was bright. "You're alarm must be off, come on get up," she said smiling. "I'm not going to school today," I groaned. Nicole shrugged and walked out. I didn't want to see him today, I wasn't in the mood. I got up took a shower, and got ready for the day. I went downstairs and ate breakfast. Nicole was leaving, "Have a good day," I yelled from the kitchen. "Love you," she yelled back before closing the door. I washed my plate and put it away.

I got the keys to the other car and went out. I drove to Rachael's house. I knocked on her door a couple times, being really annoying. After she opened the door, she looked at me. "Why the hell are you not at school?" she asked. I walked in and turned to face her shrugging. "Wanna come to the grocery store with me?" she asked getting her purse. "Sure," I replied as I opened the door. I walked out and Rachael followed me. We got in her car and drove to the grocery store. Once she parked the car, we both got out. We walked in the store and Rachael got a shopping cart. "Okay so we need to buy stuff for the barbecue," she said. "Lets spilt up so we'll get this done faster," I said. She nodded and I walked to get a little basket for myself. First I went to the chips aisle, then I went to get salsa, and toward the soda section. Me being five foot two, I coudn't reach the root beer on the top shelf. I set the basket down and tried to reach higher than before. I felt someone place there hand on my lower back. I looked to my side to see a very hot guy getting my root beer. "Here you go," he said handing me the pack. "Thanks," I blushed. "No problem, anything for a beautiful girl like you," he sais smiling. I blushed and looked down. "Wanna grab a coffee with me?" he asked breaking the awkward silence. I wouldn't say yes to a stranger that just helped me get something off the top shelf, but he was so hot and he seemed nice. He was wearing a tight white polo shirt that showed off his biceps perfectly. His eyes were a beautiful blue that complimented his dark brown hair. "Sure," I said smiling and following him. He lead me to the self check out lane, he paid for both of our groceries. As we were walking out of the store I said, "You didn't have to pay for me." He looked down at me and smiled, "I wanted too, so just say thank you." As we walked to his car he put his arm around my shoulder. I felt like I knew him forever, I felt very comfrotable around him. Once we got to his car, he opened the door for me to get in. I got in and watched him walk around to his door and get in. He gave me a cheeky smile before he started the car. I took out my phone and texted Rachael:
