With her hands still on Flynn’s crotch, August went pale. His face looked shocked but his eyes reflected something else, something hot and sexy as their eyes met.
She blushed and as if she got electrocuted, she pulled her hand away and straightened her back.
He was quick to recover and stood up, forcing a smile on his lips. "I—I'll just change.” He excused himself.
She nodded and stepped aside. He then goes straight to his bedroom. She covered her blushing face with both of her hands. My God! Dumbass! It wasn't my intention to touch him that way!
She went back to her seat and waited for him while she drinks her coffee. She needs it to keep her mind awake and stop doing making another silly mistake!
The door opened and Flynn went back to the table. "Where were we?"
She can't look into his eyes. "Maybe we should talk about something else.”
You clearly don't have any idea about women! How can this hot handsome guy who could hook up with any girl just by looking at them is clueless about women? That's just hard to believe!
"Cool. You should try reading the new collection I got—"
I think I know why. The guy is a total nerd!

Months passed and she usually spends some of her days off at Flynn's apartment reading books or playing on his game console.
Flynn decided on keeping his distance from her when they're in public to help her get off of Gail's hair.
They managed to be friends while they’re in their apartment building. But the woman on the fifth floor with her toddler still thinks they're a couple though.
And it's hers and Flynn's inside joke.
But then she realized how hard it is especially for her who is actually attracted to him! She often wondered what it'd be like to actually be Flynn's girlfriend and she wanted to slap herself for fantasizing about dating her hot professor!
But hey, lucky her, he thinks she's not one of those girls who are head over heels with him! Her personality being likable and getting along well with anyone she meets except someone like Gail just helped hide her real admiration for Flynn!
I guess working for our neighbors paid off!
He went back to the living room and sat beside her after he opened the package in jest. She looked at him, feeling happy seeing him acting like a child enjoying his delivery.
He seem to not have any friends in the area or in campus. He's usually alone if he’s not with his colleagues at the faculty.
"Don't you hang out with your friends?" She asked as she watched him put the game on his console and grabbed the controllers for them to play.
He didn't look at her and just focused on the screen. He's wearing his red university joggers and white shirt.
She sighed inside like always, thinking she’ll never be more than his friend.
For Pete's sake, he's still my professor!
