The Teacher and Me

First Date

Once I was finished I walked downstairs and too my surprise Blake was already here in the living room talking to Toby. Once I entered they both stopped and watched me walk down the stairs. Toby looking his usual happy self, smiling undoubtedly at his choice of clothing he picked out for me and Blake just staring with his mouth slightly opened.

“You look beautiful” Blake said not once taking his eyes off me.

“Thank you, you don’t look too bad yourself” I smiled in return, taking him in for the first time. He himself dressed in a nice off-white button up shirt that looked like it only just fit showing off his muscular biceps. He was wearing some dark jeans that again was hugging all the right places. God he is hot I thought to myself. I didn’t realize that we both were just staring at each other until Toby awkwardly coughed to alert us to his presence.

“Well you two have fun now” He said while ushering us out to the front door.

The drive to the restaurant was mainly silent after exchanging general pleasantries such as how was your day. The silence must have gotten to him as well because not long after he turned the radio on. What was I thinking? We already are struggling to find things to talk about and we aren’t even on our date yet! I mean ten years ago we barely talked about anything serious due to the fact that I was his student and even if we did happen to have an emotional connection I have changed so much in the past ten years he might not even like the new me. Before I could let my thoughts spiral too far out of control we arrived at the restaurant. I knew I should’ve had one more glass of wine I thought to myself.

We sat down and ordered our meals and after a glass of wine I started to relax a bit more. The conversation so far was flowing nicely we talked about work, the past ten years and even had a laugh at how the girls at the school reunion were practically drooling over him.

“I mean come on, you must get that all the time” I said referring to Gabby hitting on him.

“To be honest I don’t usually go to school reunions for that reason, I mean I only went this year because I knew you were going” My heart fluttered at his comments, and I felt butterflies in my stomach.

“Well I am certainly glad you went” I said smiling as our food arrived. “Have you had many girlfriends over the past ten years?” I questioned, as we were on the topic and I was curious. I mean surely he had to have a few girlfriends or at least one serious one! I mean look at him he is gorgeous.

“Not really” He answered casually, “I mean a few hook ups here and there, however nothing serious”

“Oh” I reply, not expecting that answer

“You sound disappointed”

“No, I guess I assumed you would have no problems finding women that's all” I say while taking a mouthful of pork belly. Which did I mention is to die for.

“Well you thought wrong, my dear, I guess I was just waiting for someone special. What about you? Any serious relationships?” He replied, now the one being curious.

“mmm not really!”

“Not really? What does that mean!”

“Well as I said previously with shift work its hard to keep relationships, so mainly just dates here and there, nothing serious!”

“What before you became a paramedic, at university?”

I sighed at the memory of my first serious relationship which was while I was at university, Jack. I gave him all of my heart and I truly think we could have had something special however due to our future careers and wrong timing we ended things. Neither of us wanted to sacrifice our careers for love so the split was mutual. I haven't heard from him since though I guess the split was also hard on him.

“I take the sigh as a yes then” He said questioningly raising his eyebrows.

“Well if you must know! I had one serious relationship in university but we ended things due to our careers. I haven't seen or heard from him since”

“Did you love him?”

“Uhhh, to be honest I don’t know… maybe… It was my first serious relationship, I don’t think I knew what love meant” I replied.. how did this date get so serious, I kept thinking.

“Well I’m glad you guys split, otherwise we wouldn’t be sitting here on our first date”

“Ill drink to that” I said as I lifted my glass and we clinked glasses before taking a mouthful.

The rest of dinner went really well. We drank two bottles of wine, talked about lots of things and laughed a lot. I am beginning to think that maybe we do have more than just a physical connection. After arguing about letting me pay for half of the bill, he eventually won out and paid for all of it. We stood up and before he could walk away I grabbed his hand to stop him and he turned to look my way.

“Thank you again for paying” I say sweetly

“It was my pleasure” He replies. I don’t know why but I just get this urge to be near him and kiss him. I pull his hand to pull him closer to my body and reach my arms around his neck. I lean in for a kiss when suddenly he just wraps his arms around me pulling me into a hug. That was weird I thought however I went along with it and just enjoyed his embrace.

The ride home was like the ride there, quiet however not awkward. I felt confused after he hugged me we just walked outside to the car, not hand in hand or even close by really; he just followed behind me. Maybe he isn’t into PDA?, maybe he decided he doesn’t want to pursue this relationship further after our date? If that’s the case I’m sure I'm going to find out once we reach home. We pulled up to my house and he raced around the car to open the door for me. Maybe he isn’t stopping this after all?. He walked me up to the front door with his arm wrapped around my side.

“Well I guess I leave you here” He said as we reached the front door.

“I guess so, thanks for a…” Before I could finish my sentence he crashed his lips onto mine. I quickly reacted to kissing him back and wrapped my arms around his neck for better access. I could feel his smile against my mouth when he nipped at my bottom lip causing me to part my lips just enough for his tongue to enter. Our tongues wrestled for dominance while he pushed me into the front door, his hands exploring down and gripping my behind. It felt like ages before we pulled apart, both gasping for air. He slowly kissed down my neck, nipping at some spots causing me to moan slightly and I could feel his hard package being ever so softly pushed into my front. I could feel my core getting wet and I knew I had to stop this soon but I was just enjoying it so much.

“Thank you for a good night” I quickly finished my original sentence while pushing him away. As much as I wanted to take him inside to continue what we have started, we both promised this would be a proper first date.

“Sorry” He pouted, knowing if we didn’t stop we would’ve ended up in bed together.

“No don’t be.. its not that I don’t want to…its just we had a deal and I want this to be proper”

“Well then, I guess this is goodnight” He said while kissing the back of my hand.

“Goodnight” I replied smiling. What a good night it was!. I watched him enter his car and drive away before I walked inside. Of course Toby was right there in the hallway waiting for me to return with all the gossip and I have no doubt he heard everything at the front door. He handed me a wine and we went straight into the lounge room for some kiss and tell.

***Blakes POV***

I cant believe how stupid I am! I thought as I drove away from Beth's house. First I reject her advances for a kiss in the restaurant and now I practically dry humped her in front of her house. Way to send mix signals I thought while running my fingers through my hair. I don’t know why I didn’t kiss her in the restaurant, I mean I wanted to, f**k! I wanted to do more than just kiss her however something stopped me. I think a part of me still thinks back like its ten years ago and we have to keep it a secret still, muscle memory guess! The logical part of my brain knows that this isn’t the case however when she went to kiss me in front of everyone in the restaurant I couldn’t help but to divert into a hug. I could tell she was a bit shocked that I didn’t kiss her or walk out hand in hand like I wanted to. Arrgh why did I find it so hard to show her how I feel in public!. As soon as we were more private all I wanted to do was touch her, kiss her and make her feel special. I don’t know what is going on with me I’ve never wanted anyone in my life this much before, I was hard before we even got out of the car let alone when I started kissing her at the front door.

I could not help but to smile when I thought about our kiss, f**k it was good, full of passion, desire and lust. I know the reason why she stopped me was to prevent things going further and before I made love to her at the front door, however I could tell she wanted more by her subtle moans. I was so conflicted at my actions tonight and I could only imagine what Beth was thinking about but at least the end of the night ended on a high.

I got home and jumped straight into the shower to cool off, using the recent kiss as my inspiration to get rid of the tightness that has been in my pants since the kiss. It didn’t take me long to complete and I decided to go straight to bed hoping I will sleep well. I went to sleep almost instantly and I knew I would be dreaming of Beth.
