Chapter 15.
By the end of the day, Jake was twiddling his fingers as he watched Mr. Calloway erase the day's lesson off of the board as well as the bell ringing off of the wall to signal everyone that class was now dismissed. Mel and Al were both going to wait for their friend, but the teen told them that he would catch up to them soon for he had to ask the Male Teacher a question. Taking a deep breath to gain all of the confidence that he needed, he then marched towards the desk to get his full attention; he then cleared his throat as the elder turned around and smiled.
"Is there anything I can do to help you Mr. Parker?" He asked as Jake soon looked down towards the ground, but he didn't want to hold him up much longer either; so without further ado, he then spoke up.
"One of our interviewers from the Newsroom has taken sick since from earlier today, so, they had asked me was to do an interview on you for the New Teacher Year article that is going to be a couple months from now. And, I was wondering...if you would like to be interviewed for the section? If not, then I understand, I know you are very busy and I wouldn't-"
"Now Mr. Parker, don't be silly, of course I would like to be interviewed, I don't see any harm in that."
"Really?" Jake asked hoping he had heard him right, as the Teacher only nodded in approval and smiled too."
"Of course, like I said, I wouldn't mind it at all, when is the article due if I may ask?"
"It's needed by November, but I would like to get a head start into it. You know, just to be finished with it at the earliest convenience. Um...do you have any plans for the upcoming weekend?"
"Well, I have some errands to run by early Saturday Morning, so how does later on in the afternoon sound?" Jake nodded letting him know that it was alright with him as Mr. Calloway had taken out a notepad out of the drawer and wrote something down to give it to the boy only to reveal his home address and telephone number. "This here is the address of my house and just in case if you would like to speak to me about a problem that you are having, you can always call me when I get the time to respond."
The long haired boy didn't know what to say, he was in full surprise couldn't believe this was literally happening and so soon too. Being invited to a Teacher's house was all new to him for he had never been to one before due to his excellence in his studies that didn't require any type of tutoring at all, but first time was anything especially going over to his secret forbidden crush's home to just give an interview and leave. He couldn't wait to explain this to the others thus giving out a wave goodbye to meet up with his friends.
Where: Al's house.
"You're going to interview Mr. Calloway at his house this Saturday?" Al asked couldn't believe his ears as Mel could only gape at her friend who looked down at his lap after he had explained everything to them without leaving any form of details out. The gang had all agreed was to head over to his house for an after school snack and to do homework together. The older of the three companions soon took a sip of his milk while staring daggers towards the other. "Looks to me that you are in quite a pickle my friend, you don't want to get to attached now, because it might only lead to trouble as time will pass on." Mel nodded agreeing what the 17 year old was saying.
"It's only an interview Al nothing more, I'm just going to go over, ask him some questions about his life, what inspired him to become a teacher, and so forth that's it. I'm not going to get attached to him like I keep saying, besides, haven't you watched the news about teachers being sent to prison all because they have affairs with their students especially indecent and inappropriate advances with them? I'm not going to be in line like the rest of them; I wouldn't want for him to lose his job since he has become so popular and likeable with the other students and teachers also."
"We understand, and don't take this the wrong way, but we're just looking out for you is all, we see that he is a nice guy and all that, but the thing is, we don't know what happens behind closed doors as a matter of fact, not that we're assuming that he's a pedophile by any chance, but you will never know." Mel replyed taking a bite of her brownie while she turned the page in her biology text book. Jake couldn't believe what he was hearing, there was no way in Hell that he was going to have s*x with his teacher, not that he had been dreaming about it, mind you, but it was going to be a cold day in Hell if he would ever let that happen.
"But hey, on the upside of it all, you get to be with him-alone." Al winked as Jake could only blush bright red already having those type of fantasies in his head already.
He was going to murder him...
"I mean, afterwards, you both could watch a movie, plant flowers in his yard, have lunch together."
"Al, look, I'm serious, nothing will be going on between Mr. Calloway and I. Now, if we can resume our biology homework that would be great thanks." Jake had tried very hard was to concentrate, but all he could think about was the Teacher and what he would be doing for the upcoming weekend. He just hoped that with the interview that he would be doing with him, he wouldn't screw it up, or else, he would never be able to live it down.
