Or the rain. Or the lack of meaning in my life.
not the lack of meaning 😭
Vacations weren’t something I looked forward to in the slightest. I needed constant distractions, not time to let my mind wander.
This is relatable and that’s frightening
I could feel her eyes on me. It was so hard not to stare.
Yeah her eyes are on you, you’re the professor
When I call your name, please stand and tell me one interesting fact about yourself. Then I'll stop torturing you and you can all leave class early.”
this is my 13th reason in class s
boy in the middle of the classroom stood up from his desk. "Hi, I'm Ray. Hmmm, one interesting thing about myself? Well, I'm pretty good with the ladies."
I CANT IMAGINE SAYING THIS IN CLASS
"Unfortunately, you'll need another of me for my thoughts,” she said and quickly sat back down. "Weird," some girl scoffed near the front of the class. A few other people around her snickered.
I don’t believe in bullying but this is some shit that would make me nervous as hell in a classroom, like what does that mean
But actually bringing a piggy bank would be a nice gesture. A friendly one. Possibly even an appropriate one.
THIS IS NOT TRUE, PLEASE IT IS NOT FRIENDLY OR APPROPRIATE
Right? "Miss Taylor, is that you?" I called. She stopped mid-step, like hearing my voice froze her. "Um...no. You have the wrong person,” she said and quickly started walking again without even glancing at me over her shoulder.
honestly relatable
see you at 8 a.m. sharp, Miss Taylor." "It's a date." Her eyes got huge and she threw a hand over her mouth.
Yeah I would drop the class with this ine
I looked out at all my students, making sure to not let my eyes focus on Penny, and tried to think of a way to make everything about today’s class make sense.
I cannot imagine being another student in the class. I’d either be zoned out 24/7 or overly invested bc the professor is definitely fcking a student
“Anything else?” I asked, trying not to sound too rude.
he’s so mean to his students this is why no one goes to office hours 😭
She stood up quickly. "I feel foolish." She closed her eyes and it felt like my heart stopped. "And frustrated,” she added. “Foolish and frustrated." She sat down without looking at me.
imagine she’s just trying to get a grade 😭
It was bad enough that most of the female students flitting through my office hours didn’t have any real questions. Now I had to worry about my male students too?
I don’t think students are like this? Or do I only hang out with boring ppl LMAO
When I finished listening to the other students, I wrote "lust" on the board in all caps.
I don’t think I can call the police, but I am certainly calling THE DEAN
"Right.” I pointed at him to further emphasize his point. “So how many of you preferred the first speech over the second one?" No one raised their hands. "So why did half of you give me a speech like that first one, if you can so easily tell that the second one is better?"
sheeeesh
walked away from the podium and lifted the stack of papers on my desk. "As soon as you get your grade, you can leave.
I swear his classs is like 5 minutes long
"We're supposed to tell you about why we chose our majors."
terrible speech topic mine would be “I picked a random one and never changed it bc idk what to do with my life”
Penny was 21. That wasn’t that young. She was an adult. She could make her own decisions. “It doesn’t matter to me.”
That’s a child 😭😭 - a 21 year old
She lowered her menu. "Professor Hunter, I've never had food that costs this much.” God it was hard to concentrate when she called me that.
tell her your first ñame then
And the footage of her sucking my cock? How could I possibly delete that? It was my favorite movie now.
He’s like a rich joe goldberg 😭
“So how about everyone shares what their ideal first date would be. And let's switch things up today and start at the end of the alphabet so we get a feel for how next week's speeches are going to go. Adam Zabek, start us off."
This class would be my 13th reason
"Professor Hunter? You didn't answer my other question."
Stop calling him professor when your out on a date please
Maybe it was because she made me feel young again.
you’re in your 20s, not really old
"Sit down, or I'll make you sit down." Breathe.
calling the police
"Professor Hunter, you're a slut!"
haha she’s right
Screw the lesson plan.
no, STICK TO YOUR LESSON PLAN
Ray stood up. "I'm passionate about any good booty." The class laughed and he began to sit down. "Ray, don't you dare sit down." I was seconds away from snapping.
please leave ray alone
he has a right to be passionate about some fat juicy booties
“I think I really chose the majors I did so that one day I can be rich.” He shook his head, still staring daggers at me. “Because rich guys can get whatever girl they want, even if he’s a manipulative piece of shit." Oh fuck. “Because apparently women love rich assholes.”
dramaaaa
“Cancel my classes for the rest of the day.”
Cancel your own classes what the hell
"I will." She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me again. "I'll text you later, James." My name sounded almost as good as Professor Hunter on her lips. Almost.
please thank god
What now? “I’m dating my student. I’m going to ask her to move in with me.”
What it is? Week 3 of the quarter? You’ve known her for 3 weeks, have broken up twice and you want her to move in with you?
It had been a while since I’d been able to walk into my Comm class without being in a bad mood.
your poor students 😭
"What you're doing is wrong," Tyler said.
You know Tyler is right 😪
Penny jumped onto her bed and sat Indian style.
sat WHAT STYLE
"But even so, you're very handsome and your parents are wealthy. Most things in your life must have been handed to you."
I entity as Melissa 😭 put the rich boy in his place sis
She placed one last swift kiss against my lips. “You have to promise," she said again. "Okay. I promise that I won't get mad." "My birthday is on October 15th."
god if she’s 16 I might kms
"I'm a sophomore. But my birthday is October 15th. I'll be 20 in just a couple weeks." It felt like she slapped me. "You're only 19?" I didn’t realize I’d said it out loud. She was a teenager? I’m fucking a teenager? Jesus Christ! I pulled my hands out of hers.
AYO she’s not even 21
I am vastly uncomfortable
I was joking about her age 😭
Was she drinking away the pain? I doubted it.
She can’t even drink she’s 19 😭
Each minute that passed it got more and more obvious. I really didn’t care about Penny’s age.
I CARE
“You drugged me, you psychotic bitch.”
ayo?
