《INVITE ME ROUND》Chapter 23

"Wake up, pervert!", your eyes widened as you almost heard Lilith scream.
"God I can't do this," she said quietly.
"I can't!" she then repeated, much louder.
You jumped up as you remembered last night. After Lilith laid down next to you, you didn't dare to say a word.
At first you couldn't turn a blind eye.
It was quiet and you felt like your breathing was the loudest in her bedroom, even though you hadn't been breathing that loud.
The silence wasn't all that uncomfortable, though. At first you needed time to get used to it, but eventually everything was fine.
It could have been fine because you were both about to fall asleep.
You couldn't see Lilith in the dark, but you knew she was there.
And lying next to her was very comfortable.
Even if you didn't know this woman well - actually you hardly knew her - the moment to be with her was unique, and you had the feeling that you didn't need anything else in this world but her.
"I'll count to three. And if you haven't left my house by then, I'm-
I am going to..." she hesitated.
"I'll come up with something!" You saw her standing in front of you. She crossed her arms as you jumped up, being grateful that you were dressed.
"But Lilith, I thought-"
"Leave," she pointed her finger at the door.
Confused, you rushed out of her room.
What the hell was that?
Maybe she couldn't remember last night, but that would be a little weird.
Running down the stairs your eyes were searching for a clock when suddenly the front door burst open.
"What are you doing here?"
And there was Rina again.
As if she had never been away.

"There you are! I- I was looking for something...no, actually I was looking for you." You laughed in panic and walked past her to the door.
"You were looking for me?" She seemed just as confused as you were.
"Yes. But I think I should-" You looked towards the stairs, hoping Lilith wouldn't come down.
"I just wanted to check if you're okay but I have to go now, it was nice to see you." You gave her a quick hug before walking out of the house.
"Now that was weird," you heard Rina say before you stormed off Lilith's property.

"I was hoping to find you here." You saw Harmony sitting at her desk.
"Me?" She turned to you in surprise, and gave you a relieved smile.
"I need your help Harmony..." Closing the door you approach Harmony and kneel in front of her, resting your head on her lap.
"Actually, I didn't want to talk to you or to anyone about it, okay? But that wasn't even possible because Luke was there and I don't even know who Luke is. And then there was Mr. Black and this weird woman named Lucy who was trying to kill me with her gaze and there was also Joyce who always had to explain weird things to me. Mr. Buckman and Mr. Eastwood who you are familiar with and some strange old teachers were playing a very stupid game with me. And by the way there was Ms. Ritter and she kissed me!" you gasped, immediately regretting telling Harmony all that.
But you had questions.
Questions that no one could answer for you except Harmony.
"You know Lilith, don't you?
You know her from that party you and your sweetheart are throwing. How many of you are there? What the hell are you doing and why-"

"Y/n calm down please..." Harmony closed her laptop and took your hands in hers.
"Don't you have to go to class?" She pointed to the clock hanging on the wall above the door.
"Right, but I guess it's too late," you exhaled.
"I just want to know what's going on. I thought she loved me. I thought we could-"
"You thought the hot teacher fell in love with a student?" Harmony smiled.
"You thought she fell in love with you?", she repeated.
"Yeah?"
"Well I have to tell you that did not happen and it won't," she replied coldly.
"Alright, " you lowered your eyes to the ground.
"But you know you're in a relationship with a teacher Harmony, don't you?" you asked sternly.
"Yeah, I know. But that's something completely different." She seemed to say honestly.
"Uh-huh," you stood up and made your way to your handbag.
"You know, I don't think it's completely different. After all-"
"Y/n, we wont have this conversation now. Go to your class first," she interrupted you.
You studied her more closely.
How did she get into an illicit teacher-student relationship?
"Fine." You grabbed your bag and straightened your hair in front of the mirror before walking to the door.
"One more thing-" you looked at Harmony, seeing her rolling her eyes again.
"Do you know where Lilith put your pack of cigarettes?"
"Get out of here," she said angrily, looking deep into your eyes.
"I'm on my way," a smirk formed on your lips as an idea popped into your head.
