Chapter 14 | Blame Ovulation

Start from the beginning
                                        

You groan. "Ugh, again? Just because I let you kiss me doesn't mean it's gonna make me say yes."

He sighs, knowing he's getting nowhere. He feels a pang of annoyance at your response, his previously playful expression turning serious as he looks at you. "Damn it, Teach...Why not? What's it gonna take for you to finally agree?" He huffs, his voice laced with some desperation.

Should I give in just to make him stop? No, I can't.

You sigh. "I'm not for hookups, Mr. Gojo," You say firmly, still standing your ground for not giving in to his outrageous proposal.

He sighs as well, shoulders sagging a bit. He's thinking of anything that could get you to agree, but it's a lost cause. "Can we at least go on another date?" He asks, giving one last try to get you to do something with him.

If that will satisfy him for now...

"Fine..." You reluctantly agree. You just hope that he'll stop trying to annoy you with that proposal again.

He freezes, not expecting you to agree to anything with him. His heart leaps in his chest when you reluctantly agree to go on another date with him. He's so far gone for you that even the notion of going on a date with you makes him feel like he's won the lottery.

He tries to maintain a nonchalant facade as he nods, his voice betraying just a hint of excitement. "Yeah, we can go on a date. But we're doing absolutely nothing else, got it?" He says, knowing he'll most definitely try to at least do something to push your boundaries, not too far obviously.

"We'd better not," You say as you give him a firm look.

He gives a small huff, silently cursing your insistence on setting such strict boundaries. He hates the idea of having to keep things completely PG on the date, but he's willing to take what he can get for now.

He nods in agreement, silently vowing that he'll do everything in his power to change your mind later on. "Fine, I promise. No funny business. Just a completely innocent date."

Well, that's one thing you could use against him if he tries to do anything. You rub your forehead. I can't believe I just agreed on another date with him...

But for some reason, it doesn't feel horrib-

No, what am I thinking?

"When?" You simply ask, hoping it won't be on Shoko's birthday this Friday.

He takes a moment to compose himself before responding, a small smirk playing at the corners of his lips. "Saturday night. I'll pick you up at 7. Wear something nice."

"Yeah, yeah, I know..." You say as you turn to go into your classroom.

He watches as you quickly turn and head towards your classroom. He can practically hear the hint of resignation in your voice. He can tell that you're already regretting agreeing to the date, but he's not going to let you back out now that he's finally managed to get you to agree.

"Oh, and Teach?" He calls out, stopping you in your tracks just before you enter your classroom.

You roll your eyes before you turn to look at him. "What now?"

Mr. Gojo grins as you turn to face him again, sounding a bit exasperated with him. He takes a step closer, leaning against the doorframe of your classroom as he looks at you.

He glances around to make sure no one is eavesdropping before responding. "You better not try to bail on me Saturday night..."

Getting free food, even if it means going on a date with him, oh hell no, you're not gonna bail like a pussy. "I don't bail like a pussy."
