April seduces Jackson as he is her professor for a better grade? Thank you love!
Her brunette friend, Lexie, nods, eyes wicked and blowing on her painted nails, “Yeah, Mer said that she hooked up with Professor Shepherd when he flunked her out of psychology.”
"What, and nobody knew about it?!" The redhead is stunned, gobsmacked almost, and she licks her lips, "How did that even happen though?"
Lexie grins, twirling the lid of her polish bottle back on, “Uh, it’s really easy. You just go after who’s failing you and work those dimples.” She taps a hand to April’s face, “Believe me, it’s all just a matter of bending over and wearing short skirts.”
April pauses, tongue tracing her lips as her friend continues,
The brunette holds up her hands, “I’m not saying you’ve gotta put out for the guy, just fool around with him. That’s what I did with Sloan.”
"You and Professor Sloan?!"
"Yeah." She states proudly, "Now, if you’re failing English, then I recommend you go find that handsome teacher of ours and - what did I say?"
April takes a deep breath, holding for air as she stands and grabs her books, “Work the dimples.”
"Can I come in?" Her hand is still pressed to the door from knocking and she holds back a nervous tremble when he nods.
Stepping foot inside his office, she makes sure to close the door behind her and walks closer to the older man’s desk. Okay, he’s only like five years older and she’s fairly sure that it’s not legal for someone so attractive to be educating young women.
What can I do for you, she wonders to herself, trying to keep her eyes on his face and not drift to his chest or lips. Maybe she shouldn’t have shut the door. It’s not like they was anybody around-
April quickly breathes, hands folding in her lap after placing her books on the corner of his desk. Wooden, large, great. She’s trying to ignore those few dozen fantasies she’s had about him taking her on it.
"I wanted to come and see you about my grade. Um, on that last essay?”
He frowns, leaning back in his chair, and removing those studious glasses from his face. Mother of- did he have to?
Her professor, last name Avery, first name Jackson, sighs and raises a brow at her nervous stance. “Look, it’s just that-”
He’s still new, still getting adjusted to being a teacher for young women, so she’ll give him a little pause.
"You failed because you were clearly distracted. Your essay didn’t make much sense so there wasn’t much for me to evaluate.” He explains, hands gesturing about and she’s unwillingly reminded of those fantasies. Him, her, desk and ruler.
"I wasn’t distracted.” Hell, what was the worse that could happen? She creases her forehead tenderly and chews on her lip, making sure her perky dimple are his sole focus, “I wasn’t. I promise you, and I- I’d like to take the exam again.”
"That wouldn’t exactly be fair to the other students now, would it?”
April falters, eyes wide open and shaky hands suddenly going numb, “Well, what can I do to change your mind?”
Professor Avery, though she prefers to think of him as Jackson, clears his throat and glances away from her for a second, obviously catching the way she’s staring at his lips.
She takes a step backward, sitting down on the table across from his desk, littered with old novels books and manuscripts. He tries to ignore the way she rests her hands in her lap, the way her short skirt rides up her naked thighs when she spreads her legs slightly and softly bites down on her lip, hazel eyes focused on his.
"Is there nothing I can do? Because, you see, I really need this grade. I can’t fail my year, Professor, because then my daddy wouldn’t be happy with me.” Yeah, she feels kind of wrong bringing her adoring father into this mess, “I mean, would you like your children to fail a class? I don’t even know if you have kids, do you? Are you a daddy?”
Lexie would be so proud right now.
"I, uh-” His throat is dry and she leans forward then, hands on her knees and fingertips tracing her own flesh. “No, I don’t. I’m not.”
April hides her nerves when he stands up. She invitingly licks her lips, reminding herself of those many fantasies and dreams. Maybe.
"Do you wanna be?” Guys love that whole authority-thing, right? They like feeling in power, like they’re in charge of everything? “Mine, I mean.”
He, she’s referring to him as Jackson now since he’s within such close proximity that she can practically feel his mouth, stops in front of her. His eyes, green like peppermint, and his small smile that reminds her of Christmas are enchanting her, and she lets her tongue dart out to dry her lips. His gaze follows her and she suddenly feels extremely heated, anxious almost.
"Are you sure there’s nothing I can do to change your mind?” She repeats finally, voice raspy and eyes glancing down to focus on his lips. “Nothing at all?”
She grabs one of his hands, cursing herself when she drops it to her leg, feeling his fingertips tracing the skin of her thigh. He copies the move with the other hand, and she softly gasps when he grasps her hips, pulling her body toward him.
"Maybe I can think of something.” He’s not rude, and she doesn’t feel pressured or threatened. Only turned on, eyes flickering over to his desk. Him, her, desk and ruler. Maybe.
