🎶Being swept up in dating a global superstar was not on your list of things you thought would happen as an educator.
🎶The way you two got together was slightly convoluted: a family friend of yours knew a friend that wanted their other friend’s daughter to take private piano lessons with you.
🎶Private piano lessons were only something you did on the side for a very select number of people, as during your day to day, you were the Orchestra Director for a high school in Rincon.
🎶The student’s parents had been very precise about scheduling, confusing you somewhat. But after a lot of back and forth, you finally got time and a consistent schedule for her and a first day for her to come into your house for lessons.
🎶The first couple of lessons went by swimmingly. She was a bit younger than what you normally taught, but you loved the younger musicians and the joy in their faces when they got something they didn’t think they could do.
🎶After a month or so, however, a new person that wasn’t her parents dropped her off at your door. When you answered, a very handsome man with a large coat and sunglasses held the little girl’s hand on your porch, all while she shouted, “¡Tío Benito está aquí hoy!”
🎶The speed at which your eyes turned into hearts was something to be studied. To say you were immediately enraptured was the understatement of the year.
🎶And Benito was just as smitten.
🎶The two of you bonded very quickly over your love for music. Even after the lesson, he asked if he could stay at your house for a while; the two of you chatting about favorite music genres and things to teach and learn while his niece played with the collection of instruments in your living room.
🎶Although nothing came of that first lesson, the two of you were now on each other’s radars, and when he could come over, he would stay for a long time, simply chatting to you about anything and everything.
🎶When he and his niece would leave, he would exchange some flirtatious pleasantries with you before he would disappear for a few weeks at a time.
🎶Funnily enough, you actually had no idea who he was at first. The kids at your high school had played his music every once in a while, but you’d had to shut it down (regardless of how much you actually enjoyed the song) for the explicit lyrics.
🎶The voice sounded familiar, but always being late to pop-culture, you hadn’t delved far enough in to look up who he was.
🎶It wasn’t until one of the girls in your class was watching a music video on her before your class, proudly singing the lyrics. With a roll to your eyes, you’d gone to shut it down as usual, but froze when you saw who was on her screen.
🎶That was the only day your class was allowed to show you Bad Bunny songs.
🎶Still, not wanting to look eager for the global star, you let him take the reins. It took a while of flirting and cautious talking before he finally asked you out on a date, but the wait was worth it.
🎶As a couple, you and Benito had tried to keep it a secret from the public for as long as you could. He didn’t feel safe with the crazy public knowing your school or where his niece took lessons, so most dates were at either of your apartments, or in private rented out places.
🎶It wasn’t always the easiest with your crazy schedules, but the two of you always made time for each other when you could.
🎶The students had keen eyes though.
🎶With a few blurry paparazzi photos, some of your students immediately recognized you by your hair and silhouette and even the clothes you wore.
🎶Some of them started to interrogate you about your personal life, asking if those photos were real.
🎶Each time, you tried to deflect, but you were a pretty terrible liar, especially when it came to your students.
🎶When it came out, it was kind of a big deal in the Orchestra hall. You were fairly certain your students had been yelling and screaming at you for weeks, asking you tons of questions about dating and being close to the Bad Bunny.
🎶Although you still didn’t fully answer their questions, it was a bit relieving that they knew.
🎶The first time he came to one of your concerts, you told him to hide himself until after or the kids would never settle. He sat in the back corner of your auditorium along with his niece, smiling wide at the program you put together.
🎶When it was over and everyone had dispersed to congratulate their loved ones, he approached the stage with a large bouquet of flowers and a wide smile, hoping up with his niece to give you a kiss on the cheek.
🎶In trickles, gasps started. Almost in droves, chattering from the students started and eventually so did the screaming. What once had been an orderly concert had now turned into a meet and greet of sorts and the students started coming back up to the stage to meet Benito.
🎶Talking over each other, they asked him all sorts of questions, ranging from how he liked the concert, to how he liked you, to if he would chaperone the spring trip (which he was still deciding on). Some of the kids were even offering him their own flowers.
🎶You were just lucky they were respectful of his young niece.
🎶After that, the kids pestered you non-stop. Once, when something wasn’t sounding right on your account through the orchestra, you’d heard one of the sophomore cello players whisper, “Benito no le gustaría esto.”
🎶On nights when the kids were too much, Benito would remind you that they were just that: kids. He would tell you with soft words and chaste kisses that you were doing good by them, and you shouldn’t let their pestering get you down. Most of them loved you and wanted to feel like you were a part of their lives too.
🎶Eventually they even beat you down enough to play an orchestral version of “Debí tirar más fotos” for their Spring Recital. To avoid any copyright, you asked the man himself to help you arrange it, which he happily did.
🎶As it was played at the concert, there wasn’t a dry eye in the room.
🎶Especially Benito’s eyes, as he was seeing you - one of his favorite people in the world - conduct a group of young musicians playing a song he held so dearly to his heart.
🎶It hit the both of you that night that you could really change the world with music, and you could do it together.
end a.n. Two in one day yaaaaay! Loooooved this one as it was soooo close to my heart!! Love me some music and I love me some music teachers! Hope you love it!!!
