No Strings

Chapter Three

It might seem odd that we sleep together and then don't even acknowledge each other at school, but for us it's easier. After all, we're not in a relationship and I don't really want everyone knowing my business.

I had to stop myself laughing as I watched him trying to act professional in front of the parents and the first years, while pointing out directions to different areas in the room. His thick dark chocolate brown hair was perfectly dishevelled. His lips remained parted slightly as he concentrated on directions. His eyes caught mine for a second as I continued to look at him, perfectly green. The colour of the forest after it rains.

Shaking off his gaze, I turn away and busy myself by making tea. A slight tap on my shoulder makes me jump sky high.

"I'm so sorry to startle you Ella", Mr Hughes tells me. 

"It's okay, did you want some tea?" I smile at him, he's one of the nicest teachers at sixth form, he always tries to help and get the best out of his students.

"No, I, well, although  I just wanted to speak to you about your current biology work", He says.

"Okay..." I respond, completely unaware where this is going.

"I had the in class mock results back and well, your grade shocked me highly as you've always been a rather good student in my opinion. You received a D grade on your mock, Ella."

I sighed, "Oh"

"I was not expecting this at all, as I said you've always been a good student. But now unless you can bring your grades back up in a resit than I'm afraid you will not be allowed to take the final exam and it will affect your attendance of the track team."

Trying to put on a brave face, I smile, "I suppose, I just need to work harder. Thank you for letting me know anyway."

"If you need any help, ask!", He insists before turning and walking back to greet his other student's parents.

Great! I've earned myself a great fail in biology. I have to take this exam, my whole university application and future plans rest on this grade. I'm going to have to go begging to Alex for more science lessons, I know it! He's always so irritating when he's trying to teach me.

"Don't play games", he whispered in to my hair, as we sat on the sofa in my living room after prefecting.

"Who says I'm playing?" I reply, pressing myself even closer to his body.

"I've watched you most of the night, dancing around in those ass hugging leggings, both of us knowing full well that I couldn't touch you", He continued.

"Who says I'd let you touch me?" I tease.

He laughs, wrapping each hand around the sides my bum, "Look at us, you're sitting on my lap, like you do when we have sex in here, don't play games baby"

I smirk back at him, "Good point."

Leaning forward, I kiss him softly on the lips. He nibbles gently on my bottom lip asking for entrance, I allow him and he deepens the kiss.

"Whoa, wait a second", I tell him pulling away, "I need you to agree to something?"

"What now?" He sighs at my timing.

"I need help with biology", I reveal.

"That's exactly what I was about to", he smirks, "teach you about biology"

"How hilarious you are", I retort, my voice dripping with sarcasm, "I'm being serious, Hughes told me earlier that I'm failing."

 "Do we have to have this conversation now?" He sighs again.

"Yes, until you agree to it!" I declare.  I have to admit I'm feeling rather pleased with myself that I've managed to get him to listen for this long, I mean he's not exactly a big listener.

"Fine, fine, I agree to help you", He responded, kissing my neck again.

I  guess we're getting back to where we started again, studying and sex.

"You didn't have to bite", I scold him, rubbing my inner thigh where I feel a bite mark appearing.

"It wasn't even that hard, you big baby!" He smirks at me from the other side of the bed.

"Wasn't that hard? Shall I bite you then? See if it hurts you?"

I reach out and push him gently, he raises his eyebrows at my proposal and taps his neck. Leaning towards him, I wrap my arms around the back of his neck. Kissing him gently first, I can hear him laughing. You want to play it like that? Okay then, I sink my teeth in to his neck.

"You're a bitch" He shouts, pushing me off his neck and checking for a mark using his phone as a mirror, "You've probably scared me with your bloody wolf teeth"

"It wasn't even that hard", I imitate his voice.

"Fine" Putting down his phone, he crawls across the bed to where he pushed me, wrapping both his arms around my body, he pulls me on to his lap and kisses me softly.

"Say it!" I whisper.

"You suck", He whispers back.

"I hate you." I tell him.

"I'm sorry." He whispers, kissing the tip of my nose.
