Adoring Ms. Stevens

Chapter 24

Shiranda's POV

   Deena and Shayla are out together.  I walk into the kitchen and grab the pizza box out of the fridge.

"Hey, Shiranda."  Ms. Stevens says to me, grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge.  I put the pizza box down on the counter.

I look at her, my arms folded over my chest.  "You just couldn't keep your mouth shut, could you, Blabbermouth?"  I say, coldly staring at her.

I'm fuming.  To say that I'm upset is an understatement.

She frowns in confusion.  "What are you-"  "Shut.  The fuck.  Up, Aurora." 

She looks at me, her eyes searching my face.  "I know you told Deena about the kiss.  Why the fuck would you go and do that?  I don't like people in my business.  If I let them in on it, I let them in on it.  If I wanted her to know, I would've told her my damn self.  I already have to put up with her teasing me about you.  And if you really regretted it so bad, then you shouldn't have done it."

I put the pizza box back in the fridge.  I've lost my appetite.  I walk past her, trying to leave the kitchen.  "Shiranda, wait-"  She says, gripping my arm.

"Get the fuck off of me."  I say and shake out of her grasp.  I go upstairs to my room, slamming the door closed.

Ms. Stevens' POV

Oh Lord, here we go.  I've never seen her that mad before.  Look, I get why she's upset, but I just had to tell Deena.  It felt wrong to not let her know that I kissed her little sister.

And I don't know if I regret the kiss.  I mean, I should.  Hell, I don't even remember doing it.  Can she cut me some slack here?

The thing is, we almost kissed again, and I was perfectly sober.  Would I like it?  Would I regret it?

In that moment.......it felt so right, but we both knew it couldn't happen, so we stopped.

It just sucks that she's gonna shut me out again.  It took her awhile for her to get comfortable with me, and now we're all the way back to square one.

Fuck, what am I going to do?
