Riley's P.O.V

We walked into the coffee shop and I ordered our coffee's and paid for them. I turned around to join Alexa in the booth and I spotted Heather. My heart jumped into my throat as I ducked into the booth. "Alexa, we have got to go, NOW." She looked at me like I'd shot her dog.

"Heather's over there. I don't want her comin-too late." Alexa's face dropped. She kept her eyes on me whilst Heather walked over.

"Riley and Riley friend-Miss Scarlett?!" I groaned internally.

"Yeah, Miss Scarlett and I bumped into each other and we decided we'd have a catch up on my work whilst we were both here, I don't have anything better to do since Yas has got her boyfriend" I smiled, and I took out my film studies book.

Heather smiled at me completely blanking Alexa. I thought that was particularly rude considering Alexas our teacher. "You could hang out with me, you know I've been asking you for weeks now?" she seemed to get off on embarrassing me in front of Alexa. I'm not playing this game.

"I know, I'm sorry. I've been studying, and I enjoy my space, Heather." I smiled. I could see Alexa stifling a laugh opposite me.

"Well, hang out with me now and I'll make you enjoy my company instead of your space?" She barely whispered with a smirk. My face dropped. I didn't know what to say I looked at Alexa. She was giving Heather a death stare and it was really sexy. It was like a wolf who felt threatened by another wolf. I felt my body quiver staring at the raven haired opposite me.

"What?" was all I could muster. I could tell Alexa was biting her tongue whilst burning a hole through Heathers head.

"Riley, you knew exactly what I said and the way I meant it." She leant down and whispered "I'll fuck you till you scream my name." I looked at Alexa who heard every word, her fists were clenched, her eyes held anger, jealousy and another emotion I couldn't read.

I laughed. "Heather, you're a real charmer but there are two reasons why that wouldn't happen."

She took a seat next to me, she was practically sat on my lap. She didn't even look at Alexa who was staring at the two of us. I could feel Alexa was about to lose her temper if Heather came out with another sentence like that, so I had to shut her down as quickly as I could. Before I was going to say something, Heather slid her hand up my thigh as she kissed my jaw.

This angered me. Nobody gets to touch me without my permission, nobody! Alexa could see how uncomfortable I was, but my body froze.

She was practically touching me up in this booth in front of my teacher slash girlfriend or whatever we are. Alexa's temper was holding on by a thread and I finally mustered up the courage to slide away.

I took two deep breaths. "Heather, firstly you are a minor. You're only 17. And secondly, I have a girlfriend who I love very much. Please don't make anymore of those advances at me again!"

Heather smirked. "Who is your girlfriend? I've never seen you with her."

I laughed. "Yes, that's because we enjoy our privacy. We don't flaunt our relationship around for the whole world to see. We have a more intimate relationship. The more people that know about it, the more problems it can cause."

I glanced over at Alexa who was smiling widely like she'd won a gold medal. She nodded her head at me in approval.

Heather looked at Alexa then to me. "Okay. What your girlfriend doesn't know won't hurt her, right?"

My jaw dropped again, and I felt my head being turned and Heather's lips were pressed against mine. I tried pulling away, but my body froze again. Heather was bigger than me. We stayed that way until I heard Alexa's coffee spilling all over Heather's sleeve. "What the fuck, Miss Scarlett?"

Alexa exaggerated. "Oh my god, Heather. I am so sorry! I'll pay for the dry cleaner's bill. I'm so sorry. I'm so clumsy!?"

Heather looked at her with her eyebrows dipped. "Don't worry. See you in class."

She turned to me. "I'll see you later." She winked. She pressed a kiss onto my cheek, but I pulled away.

Alexa looked at me and she was pissed. "What was that?!" I shook my head.

"I-I don't know. She's a psycho." Alexa eyed me. "Is there something going on between you and Heather?"

I scoffed. "I'm sorry, what?"

She laughed. "You heard me."

I stared at her trying to figure out if she was joking or being serious right now.

I couldn't help but use sarcasm. "Oh yes, Alexa. When there's a girl who's bigger than you sliding her hand up your thigh and kissing your jaw when the only thing you can think about is the girl in front of you that you're in love with, then your body freezes up because you don't want to cause a scene. It automatically suggests that I'm seeing her." I shot her a hurt look and I walked off, leaving Alexa there speechless. I got to my car and I sat there remembering that I needed to give Alexa a ride. Alexa jumped into the passenger seat next to me. She looked around and then she looked back at me. She pulled me into her. Our lips connected, and Alexa's hands wondered up my thighs. I let out a moan and Alexa smiled into the kiss. She pulled back.

"You're in love with me?"

I nodded. "Yes, Alexa. You make me feel thing's I've only ever read about. You make me feel safe, you provide security and I trust you. I feel as if we have a connection that I've never had with anyone else."

"I completely understand you, Riley. I'm in love with you too but I'm scared."

I cocked up an eyebrow. "What's there to fear?"

"Riley, there's a lot you don't know about me. One day you're going to find out and I don't want you to think I'm a monster." Alexa wiped away the tears escaping her eyes. I kissed her. "Alexa, we all have a past. It's who we are in the present that counts. I know you for who you are now. Nothing is going to change the way I feel about you."

She pulled me into a kiss and she smiled. "Riley, have I ever told you how much of a good person you are?"

I chuckled. "Yes, you did last night."

She cocked up her eyebrow. "What did I say last night?"

I chuckled innocently. " I believe your exact words were; you really are a good person. You're beautiful, your intelligent, you're mature. When I'm with you I forget that you're my student. The worst thing is. I don't care if I get sacked. I'd rather wake up to you every day than go to work without you in my life"

Alexa looked away, her cheeks giving everything away.

"Alexa, don't worry. I won't let you get sacked. You've always wanted to be a teacher, you always used to tell me that you'd love to boss people around."

She laughed hysterically "Hey, I'm not that bossy!"

"I know." I mused.

I started to car and I took us to school. Today's going to be an interesting day.
