A Lesson In Love

Chapter two

Shawn's P.O.V

Another day at my place of work, the first day of the new school year. A new wave of freshmen that would most likely test my patience to its limits. This year started in the wrong way, technically last night. I walked in on my girlfriend of 6 years in bed with another man. The hurt and rage I felt was overwhelming. The worst part was she didn't even feel bad about it. After that I spent the rest of the night at the bar drinking and playing pool with my buddy Jason. Jason never cared for my girlfriend but never pushed the issue because it had created problems between us in the past. As heartbroken as I am, however, life goes on and I have work to do. I approached my class room to prepare for my first class of the day. 

I look up from my desk to see students coming in and finding some where to be seated. Girls glance over at me giggling and some are bold enough to wink at me. I did not find this amusing in the slightest. The male students gawk at the girls with no shame at all. All the hormones in this room were getting on my nerves today. As soon as I'm confident that everyone has had ample time to make it to class on time I begin to call roll. I check off all the people who said 'here' when their name was called and I see I have one absent person. Surely this person would not miss their first day, but on the other hand I cannot stand tardiness. 

"Alright class, I am Mr. Graham. You can call me sir or Mr. Graham... I am not gonna be one of those teachers that will be your friend. I am not here to entertain you, I am here to educate you." I explain sternly. I begin to pass out this semesters syllabus along with a list of needed materials for this class. Once that was out of the way I begin to write down some calculus problems on the whiteboard. 

Just as I was about to explain the lesson the classroom door swung open to reveal a female student standing there breathlessly. "You're late." I stated giving her a pointed look. The girl was stunning with long black hair, ice blue eyes, and a full bust that rose and fell with each heavy breath. The red v neck top she wore revealed just enough cleavage to darken any man's thoughts. My gaze roamed down to her long shapely legs imagining them wrapped around my waist while I f**k her on my desk. As sudden as that thought came I shook my head. She's a student and its against the rules. My break up from my girlfriend must be leaving me impaired. 'I can't sleep with one of my students: I can't rebound with a student.' I notice she too is staring at me and this makes me want to pull her to me and kiss her plump lips "Are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna take a seat?" My better judgement prevailed.

The class laughed as she scurried to the nearest seat in the front. Her face was completely red and I found myself smirking at her adorable embarrassment.  I turned back to the white board to start back on today's lesson and hoped that I could get through today with my sanity intact.

Today was such a long day and I desperately wanted to unwind. My phone rung just as I am pulling up  to my apartment. It was Jason wanting to go back to the bar for a little bit of fun and probably a one night stand knowing him. I got off the phone and headed inside to shower. Once I'm dried off I slipped into a black a-shirt and pair of low slung light blue roca-wear shorts and put on my black reeboks. I put some gel in my hair to spike it . To top it off I sprayed on some axe body spray. I grabbed my keys off the table by the door and glanced at the picture of me and my ex Nicole when I thought we were happy. I turned to picture downward with a frown and walked out the door to my truck.  

It only took a few minutes to arrive at the local dive because it was just a couple streets away from where I lived. I got out of my green 2006 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4 and walked up to the building. I entered the bar I considered my unofficial home away from home and spotted Jason chatting with the bartender, Matt. "Matt, pour me a double shot of crown." He nodded and poured the golden brown liquid into a scotch glass and slid it to me. 

"Has Nicole tried to reach out to you Shawn?" Jason asked sympathetically, concern etched all over his features. 

I gulped some of my whiskey savoring the warm sensation it created as I swallowed it. I didn't really want to talk about her, but I knew Jason wouldn't let it go. " No, apparently she's up and left town already." I sighed taking another gulp.  

Jason's brows furrowed as he scratched the back of his neck. "That sucks man. She left just like that?"

"Honestly I think this is something she has been planning for a while now." I seethed. "She had become distant towards me, but enough about that lets find a table."

As I turned I caught a glimpse of the girl who was late to my first class. She's playing darts with another female student. She had her hair pulled back in a messy bun. Her top was a metallic silver cowl neck halter  that showed off the deep swell of her breasts and skin tight black leggings with silver pumps. Light make up adorned her face, but she didn't need it. She turned her back to me so I got a view of her round juicy ass. It was begging me to give it a firm squeeze. I clenched my jaw in hopes of maintaining my composure, but it was proving difficult. 

I knocked back the rest of my drink and walked towards her. She looked up and saw me as soon as I was closer to her, a nervous smile plays on her lips. "Uh...h-hello Mr. Graham."

"Please call me Shawn." I chuckle at her nervousness, "No need to be so formal when we are not in class."

As I looked at her a blush crept up on her face and I couldn't help but feel a bit of pride in knowing I was the reason behind her red cheeks. "I'm Abigail, but you can call me Abby if you would like." She bit her lip and locked eyes with me. 'Damn that's sexy....' I would not be calling her Abby; that was what you called little girl and she was a woman.  

I was about to ask her what she was drinking so I could buy the next round, but a young man shows up beside her. I recognize him as one of my other students. He looks at Abigail with desire and lust, but it seems as though she hadn't caught this.  I wondered if she were on a date with him and this thought made my stomach knot up. I wasn't comfortable with that idea. "Well Abigail I have taken up too much of your time. I will see you tomorrow, Don't be late this time." I smirked. 

"I won't Mr... I mean... Shawn." She smiled at me showing off her beautiful teeth. 

I walked away back to the table where Jason was seated, he seemed amused. "She's hot Shawn... You should hit that." He said and winked at me. 

I rolled my eyes at his remark. "She's my student Jason..." 

"So?" Jason questioned, "You are obviously attracted to her and she was staring at your ass when you walked away."

Really now? This bit of information intrigued me and out of curiosity I turn around in my seat and she was looking me biting her bottom lip. She quickly looked away when she made eye contact and I turned around to face Jason,  running  my hands through my hair. "Jase, its against the University rules for staff to date students, I could lose my job."

He shrugged. "Only if you get caught. Come on, live a little."

We hung around the bar for a couple more hours talked sports and drinking. Jason eventually scored some busty brunette that looked like she was barely legal and took her to his place. I finished my beer and walked out to my truck to head home. Abigail still on my mind....
