He felt her press her lips back, making his hand flex as he absently let it slide down her hip toward the hem of her skirt. As she pulled herself closer to him, arm around his neck, he groaned softly. He was so lost in the moment that had she not pulled away from him, he wouldn't have noticed the sound of the footsteps.
"Yeah..." was all he could reply as she said goodbye and hurried away. Quickly recovering himself, he casually looked at the Football players as he headed back into his classroom. The moment the door was closed, his legs gave out and he fell to his knees. His heart was thudding even louder in his chest and he could feel a cold sweat on his brow. Had that just happened? She... returned his kiss... A part of him was screaming about how wrong it was... she was his student. Another part was just saying that she had reflexively done it... she didn't really feel anything. But as much as these voices were there, there was one thing that overruled them entirely: His pure, unadulterated joy over what just happened.
He wasn't fooling himself that he would have to keep this under wraps, nor that there wouldn't be rumors spreading like wildfire... hell, the rumors had probably began the moment he said for her to come to see him after class... He just had to hope that they wouldn't get out of hand... the last thing he needed was an investigation... mostly because it might turn up something, since it now seemed to be real.
He stood and went to his desk, and rested, looking over some paperwork, but he didn't actually get anything done. He was far too distracted... Tomorrow was the day before the trip, but despite it only being one day, he had a feeling like it would take forever. Deciding to call it for the day, he packed up and made his way out to his car to head home.
