I hate this trip already. I was told we would be sleeping in a lodge but there was a mixup and now I'm in a one man tent, freezing my ass off all night. Unfortunately, Natalie is on the trip with me. She insisted on sitting next to me for the four hour bus journey and kept touching my thigh and flirting. And then to make things worse I get a phone call from Marcus saying Cole had fucked up big time. He decided to go get drunk and get a nipple piercing without letting Marcus know where he was. To say I was angry was an understatement. I told him not to get that piercing because he had to earn it by behaving, not by getting drunk and doing it anyways.

"Good morning handsome." I sit up from where I'm laying in my sleeping bag and see Natalie in the doorway of my tent.

"Leave me alone, I'm not in the mood for this," I groan and she sighs.

"Nathan, when will you just accept that we're meant for each other?"

"I have a boyfriend. I'm gay. We are not meant for each other."

She rolls her eyes and zips the tent up behind her. I pull the sleeping bag against my chest and suddenly remember I'm only in my underwear. My eyes widen when she pulls her shirt above her head and shows me her tits without a bra.

"Whoa what the fuck!" I shout and look away. "Put your shirt back on."

"Come on! I know you like what you see, I'm hot as fuck," she says smugly.

"Get out of my tent. I don't want to have sex with you! I'm gay and have a boyfriend who I love very much. And in my eyes he's much hotter than you are," I say angrily. I look up as she puts her shirt back on and leaves with an angry expression.

"Thank god," I groan and fall back. She's such a bitch. I've told her so many times that I'm not interested in her or her breasts so why won't she just leave me alone. I haven't told Cole or Marcus because I know they would be pissed and most likely march into the school to confront her. I can deal with this myself.

With a new determination, I get out of my sleeping-bag and put on some jeans and a long sleeved shirt so I can go out to the bathroom block and brush my teeth. Grabbing my bag of toiletries and slipping on some shoes, I walk down to the outbuilding. I see Lacey just coming out and I smile at her.

"Good morning Nathan, you look like shit," she says with a laugh.

"You can't call me Nathan when we're around other teachers. You also can't say I look like shit or I'll give you detention," I say smugly and she sighs.

"I can call Cole and say I saw Miss Willow leaving your tent."

"You wouldn't dare."

"I know I wouldn't, you're too gay for anything to have actually happened. But the threat is always there," she says and leaves with a shit eating grin. I roll my eyes and go inside to a free sink. I can hear a bunch of girls giggling beside me and it's probably because the shirt I'm wearing is quite tight. I should probably shower but I'm already late for breakfast. Brushing my teeth quickly, I make myself look presentable and leave the bathroom to sit down for breakfast.

I go to the outdoor benches and sit beside Lacey who is by herself. She pushes a plate of toast in front of me and I thank her.

"How the hell do you look so good? We just slept in tents," I ask as I look at her flawless makeup and well put together outfit.

"It's called effort, Nathan. Try it sometime," she smirks. I laugh because I know she's joking. She sees me in suits all the time at school and that takes effort. I see Natalie sit at the table with the "hot" boys and internally cringe when I see her openly flirting, her cleavage on show.

"Why don't you like Miss Willow?" Lacey asks as she looks in the same direction as me.

"She won't stop harassing me and asking me to get in bed with her."

"Did you tell her you're gay?"

"Yes. I also told her I'm not single, but she still wants me in bed."

"I mean apart from the creepy stalker kind of vibe she's giving off, I understand why she wants you. You're gorgeous and you're actually a good guy," Lacey says and turns to smile at me.

"Thanks, please stay with me today so you can fend her off me. Especially since we are going to the lake and I'll have to change into swim trunks," I groan.

"I can't wait to see that, both your hot body and how funny it will be to see you fight off her horny advances," Lacey giggles and I roll my eyes.

"What am I going to do?"

"I'll try and keep you away from her, but she seems persistant so I might not succeed," Lacey says and I nod in agreement. At least I've got Lacey trying to save me. Me and Lacey are interrupted when the team leader for the activities shouts for everyone's attention.

"Okay everyone huddle round," he shouts and I grumpily get up with my toast in hand. "So today we are going to have a relaxing day at the lake. If everyone can go get changed into swimwear and meet back here in fifteen minutes. Remember sun cream!" He says and all the kids disperse.

"I can't wait to get a tan," Lacey says as we walk back to the tents. Usually you wouldn't get a tan here but it's a surprisingly sunny day.

"I'm dreading being half naked in front of a bunch of my students," I groan.

"It'll be fine, they'll all be too busy looking at me anyways," she says while gesturing down her body.

"Whatever you say," I tease and she gently shoves me towards my tent as we part ways. I strip down and put deodorant on then pull on the loose red swim shorts. Cole tried to make me bring Speedos which I do own but only because Marcus bought me them. I'll wear them in private with my boyfriends but not in public around my students.

I grab my towel and meet back where everyone is stood. The group of boys wolf whistle me and I glare playfully. They are a good bunch of kids that I can joke around with and they'll still be respectful so I don't tell them off.

I internally cringe when I see Natalie come from her tent in a revealing blue bikini that shows off almost all her of breasts and asscheeks. I almost laugh when I see all the boys drooling as she walks past, her hips swaying.

"Just look at that body," she says when she stops beside me her hand reaching for my chest so I quickly stop it.

"Don't touch me," I warn. She looks shocked that I stopped her but plays it off with a smile.

"Don't worry, I'll get you eventually," she says slyly.

"Good luck with that." I walk away and stand beside Lacey who's wearing a black swimming costume that's not as revealing as I was expecting.

"Wow, you do have nice abs," Lacey says as she looks down my body.

"Thank you? Has Cole been telling you stuff he shouldn't again?" I ask knowing fine well Cole tells her all the dirty details.

"Maybe, I might have heard about a certain someone who took it up the-"

"Stop! Someone might hear you," I interrupt quickly and she smirks.

"So you did bottom for Marcus, I could never imagine it, but I see it now," she says while nodding her head slightly.

"Yes, I let Marcus fuck me."

"Was it good?"

I feel my cheeks heat up madly as I blush at the simple question. Was it good? Fuck yeah it was. He made sure to make me feel as much pleasure as I could. Not to mention the amount of hickies he left on my neck and shoulders. Im glad that was a while ago and they have all faded or if have some explaining to do.

"It was great, that's as much detail I'm going into. I'm sure Cole told you the rest."

"Yeah he did," she says with a small smile. Before I can ask anything else, the team leader comes back and leads everyone down the trail to the lake. I have to walk at the back to make sure no one if left behind and thankfully Natalie is at the front so she can't harass me.

We arrive at the lake and everyone puts their towels down on the sandy bank while I try to stay away from where Natalie puts hers.

"Hey Nathan," she says as she saunters over. She puts her towel down beside mine and smiles up at me.

"Please just leave me alone," I groan and sit down on the towel.

"Come on! Just have some fun with me! Even if you don't want to have sex we can just go swimming," she says and for a second I believe that she just wants to be friends, but I know for a fact she won't settle for that.

"Fine, I'll go swimming. But don't touch me and no more flirting," I say as I stand back up.

"Okay!" She cheers and links her arm with mine. Did she even listen to me? She leads me to the water as I look over my shoulder to Lacey. I mouth 'help' and she quickly stands up to follow us.

"Can I hold onto your shoulders? I'm not a confident swimmer," Natalie says as we wade into the cold water. I huff but nod my head anyways. I can't just let her drown.

"Wow, your arms are so muscular, do you work out?" She asks as her hands feel my shoulders and biceps.

"Stop massaging me. And stop flirting."

"I'm not flirting, it was an honest question."

I roll my eyes and stop in the water when it gets to my shoulders. Natalie pulls a mischievous face before I feel her push her body flush against mine, and I mean flush. Her crotch is pushed against my dick and her legs wrap around my waist. If Marcus saw this he would have me bent over and spanked for even letting her this close in the first place. Cole would slap her and most likely cling to me with his possessive nature. I wish they were here now.

"Get off me, now," I warn calmly, not wanting anyone to know how close she is to me.

"Does it not feel good?" She asks innocently and moves her hips in a circle. I push her off me just as Lacey gets here with an apologetic expression.

"Mr Murray, could you take me and my friends up to the rock so we can jump off? We aren't allowed to go up without a teacher," Lacey asks and I notice she glares at Natalie slightly.

"Yeah of course. Natalie you'll have to stay down here and watch the rest of the kids," I say and happily follow Lacey out of the water.

"Thank you so much," I say to Lacey.

"No problem, what she was doing is disgusting. Grinding on you in front of everyone? What a skank," Lacy rants and I can't help but agree with her.

"I don't think she understands what gay means, that was horrible for me. Please don't tell Cole or he'll go off it with her," I ask as Lacey agrees to keep it between us. I get to the group of girls and a few boys who want to go up to the rock and lead them up the small trail between the trees. It takes five minutes to get up and when we do I realise we are higher up than I thought. It's about ten metres that is safe to jump off but still, it's scary. A boy I think is called James jumps first and does an almost perfect dive.

"Are you going to jump?" Lacey asks as we wait behind everyone jumping.

"Fuck no."

"Why not? I am."

"It's too high, I'm not good with heights like this," I explain.

"Please jump! If not I could always just leave you with Miss Willow," she smirks. What a little bitch, blackmailing me.

"Fine, but you better keep protecting me," I say before standing on the edge. I look over at the dark blue water as the people who just jumped swim aside.

"Take your glasses off," Lacey says before I jump. I take them off and hold them tightly in my hand. I can't afford to lose these.

I take a deep breath and hold my nose as I leap off. The air whistles past my ears and just as quickly goes quiet. I swim up to the surface and breathe deeply as I hear Lacey cheering from up on the rock. I tread water and watch as she gets ready to jump. But she doesn't. She waves and then turns to walk back down the trail. What an asshole.
