LIVING WITH MY TEACHER - CHAPTER 15&16
Pascal could felt her breath on his face, it was directly hitting on his skin and that causes goosebumps on his skin, he felt her lips so close to his lips and he was expecting a kiss from her but it seems the expectation of a kiss took his hearing senses away cos her throat made a grunt sound..
Pascal felt something on his face and he quickly opened his eyes but it widened… She puked on him.
“What!!!” He gasped.
“That feels better now, Kiddo” She said and fell on the couch, sleeping off immediately.
“Miss Josephine” He shouted but all he could hear was her cute soft snoring sounds.
He was lucky she didn’t puke on his face directly, only part of it touched his face.
He looked at himself and he felt like crying.
He looked at her and quickly went into his room, he entered the bathroom and had a quick shower, he changed into another thing and came out to find her sleeping on the couch.
He looked at the sleeping beauty and he gently carried her to her room. He laid her beside Mindy.
Her hair sprawled on her face and he bent, taking it away from her face, his eyes got stuck looking at her face and he didn’t know when he started stroking her hair.
“You puked on me, drinking is not for you” He said and frowned.
Josephine pouted in her sleep like she heard him, and he smiled.
“Are you hearing me?” He asked and laughed slightly.
He kissed her forehead and after covering them up he walked out of the room.
Nathan dialed Camila’s number and it kept ringing till it stopped. He called again and it kept ringing till it stopped, he tried it for the fourth time and she didn’t pick up.
“What is wrong?” He asked.
“Let me call her for the last time” He said and redialed the number again, it didn’t take seconds when she answered the call.
“I’m sorry Nat, I was in the bathroom” She quickly apologized.
“Oh!!… Hope I’m not disturbing you?”
“No” She replied.
“Sorry for not picking your calls”
“Camila I’m not offended” He smiled.
“You didn’t come today” She said.
“I had an assignment to do, why are you not in school? He replied but his question rendered silence.
“Camila”
“Can I answer that when we see?” She replied.
“Ok, what are you doing?”
“I’m going to sleep” She replied.
“Good night” He said.
“We are going to see tomorrow?”
“Yeah, I will come over”
“Good night” She said and he smiled before cutting the call.
He stood up from the chair and lay on the bed.
Manon was about to go to bed when she saw a card on her table, she stood up from the bed and walked there. She picked the card and a scoff left her lips immediately she recognized it.
“That arrogant guy, does he really think I will call him, he’s so full of himself, such confidence?” She said and dropped the card.
She got in bed and covered herself up.
“I’m trashing it tomorrow” She said, closing her eyes.
Pascal opened the door to Josephine’s room and saw the two ladies sleeping on the bed, they were even cuddling each other. He remembered when they almost kissed yesterday and he started laughing.
He looked at the time and he smirked.
“I’m not waking you up, that’s your punishment for puking on me” He said and closed the door back.
He was already in his school uniform and his backpack was with him.
He already prepared breakfast and he ate before checking up on them.
He left the house afterwards.
The ringing of a cell phone on the bed stand woke Josephine up.
The brightness in the room hit her eyes and she closed them before opening her eyes again.
She looked beside her and saw Mindy still sleeping.
She remembered how Mindy and her went to a bar and how they got drunk. How did they even get home?
She yawned lightly and her hand went to her cellphone. She took it and saw a missed call but what she saw next made her gasp loudly. 10am… Her eyes widened.
“What!!!” She shouted and that distracted Mindy. She woke up.
“Why are you shouting? You just interrupted my sleep” Mindy groaned.
“I’m so late for school, this is all your fault” Josephine said, rushing down from the bed.
“How is it my fault?” Mindy asked.
“You brought the idea of us going to the bar, I h@?? you” Josephine said and took a pillow hitting Mindy with it . She instantly rushed into the bathroom.
“I’m hungry” Mindy came down from the bed and walked out, heading straight to the kitchen.
Josephine hurriedly came out of the bathroom after five minutes and started dressing up.
She dressed up in five minutes and dashed out of the room.
“You are leaving? You won’t even have breakfast?” Mindy asked, coming out with a plate of what Pascal made.
“Don’t talk to me, I h@?? you” Josephine replied and ran out.
Mindy stood there and started laughing.
She ate another spoon from the plate and Mõ@?ed.
“Pascal is so good” She said with admiration.
Josephine got to school and it was already lunch time, she missed the class she had. She came out of the car and started cursing Mindy as she ran to her office. She got there and found Laurent already on her door.
“Laurent” She called surprisingly.
“Miss Josephine, finally!” He smiled.
“You were waiting?” She asked.
“Yes,I was worried” He replied.
“You shouldn’t have” She replied and unlocked the door, he went in with her.
“What happened? Did you get sick?” He asked.
“No but it’s so embarrassing, I don’t want to talk about it” She replied and he nodded.
“Your call actually woke me up, thank you”
“I sent some messages before calling, it was the fifth call” He said.
“I’m sorry”
“It’s fine, see you later” He smiled and walked to the door, he opened the door and met Pascal outside with tons of notebooks in his hands.
He looked at Pascal and Pascal returned the stare.
“Sir Laurent” He said and pushed himself inside. Laurent scoffed and left.
Josephine was leaning on the table and when Pascal came in, he walked to the table and dropped the notebooks
“Good morning, Auntie Josephine” He said knowingly.
Josephine frowned as he expected.
“I thought you weren’t coming to school” He said with a smirk.
“Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“I didn’t want to disturb my teacher” He replied.
“You and Mindy came home drunk yesterday, it was part of the punishment for what you did to me yesterday” He said and she raised her brows.
“What did I do?” She asked curiously.
“My secret” He replied and she frowned.
“Keep frowning it make you prettier” He winked and she stopped frowning immediately.
“The assignment” He said and started leaving but he suddenly turned back and walked to her.
“What?” She asked but a shout left her lips as his hand went behind her head.
“Wh…. What… are you doing…We are in the office” She stuttered as his body was slightly placed on her body.
Pascal smiled and pulled out the hair band she used in holding her hair with. Her hair sprawled on her face, he faced her and started arranging it.
Josephine became speechless and unmovable. She was just staring into his eyes.
“This looks better on you” He smiled and left.
Josephine slowly held her chest as she felt the irregular movement of her heart.
“What…..is he??…
“You finally remembered you have parents?” Mr Joseph asked immediately Mindy came in.
“Papa” Mindy pouted.
“You came back some days ago and you’re just visiting us now?” Mrs Joseph said.
“Mama” Mindy pouted again.
“Now that you are here, I want to let you know that you….
“If it’s about taking over the company don’t say it cos I will leave immediately” Mindy said and Mr Joseph sat down with a low groan.
“You should take over…
“I’m leaving” Mindy said.
“Okay, we won’t say a thing again” Mrs Joseph said and sat down with her husband.
Mindy smiled and sat in between them.
“I love you papa” She said, hugging Mr Joseph.
“If you really love me you would…
“Dadddd!!!!”
“Ok” Mr Joseph stopped and Mindy hugged him again.
“I love you Mama” She hugged Mrs Joseph but the woman rolled eyes.
“Dinner is ready” A maid announced.
“I’m hungry, let’s go” Mindy grabbed her parents hands at once, dragging them up.
“Mindy!!!!!!!” They screamed.
Nathan and Camila were the only ones in the eatery and they sat on a table facing each other.
“Can you answer my question now?” Nathan said and she looked at him.
“I don’t have the brain for school so I asked my sister to stop wasting money on me” She replied sincerely.
She looked at Nathan and saw him laughing.
“Why are you laughing?” She asked.
“You are smart” He said.
“Not academically” She said and he laughed again.
“Should I tell you about myself too?”
“Yes” She nodded.
“I’m the only child of my parents, my dad is late but my mum is still alive, I got a scholarship because of my brain, that’s what brought me to Paris” He said.
“You already told me” She smiled.
“I forgot I did”
“Will you allow me to visit you?” She asked, looking down.
Nathan smiled.
“Look at me” He said and she looked at him.
“We are friends, you can visit my place if it’s fine with you” He said and patted her cheeks.
She smiled.
“I think we should be going home now” He said and she nodded.
******
Josephine was making dinner in the kitchen alone, Pascal wasn’t with her as usual.
He was doing something but immediately he finished with what he was doing, he came to the kitchen.
He smiled when he saw her back view, she looked sizzling and pretty in her flower gown.
Josephine’s nose picked up a familiar smell of cologne and she looked back to see him at the door.
“Kiddo” She said.
“Auntie Josephine” He replied with his hands crossed.
“I’m old enough to be your auntie anyways” She rolled eyes.
Pascal went closer to her and when she felt his presence she looked back.
“Don’t drink next time, you almost did what you would have regretted” He said and her curiosity got to the highest peak. She was curious when he told her that in the office but when he refused explaining she let it slide but she isn’t doing it now.
“Can you tell me what I did last night? Stop triggering my curiosity” She said.
“It’s a secret”
“Pascal”
“Not kiddo again?” He smirked teasingly.
“Pascal” She shouted.
“You won’t like to hear so it’s better it remains a secret” He smiled.
“Get out” She said and turned her back on him.
Pascal noticed she packed her hair.
His hand went to the hairband and he pulled it out again, her hair fell on her shoulders.
She gasped and looked at him again.
“You look better with your hair down” He said.
“Give me back the hairband” She said and rushed to him but he moved away from her.
“I’m not giving it back” He refused.
“I’m not joking” She said trying to maintain a firm expression so that he would think she’s angry but Pascal wasn’t buying that.
“I’m your teacher” She said.
“My teacher, my teacher” He said and knowingly started walking closer to her.
Josephine started moving back as he kept coming closer.
“What….” Her legs tripled on each other and she almost fell but he quickly got to her and slipped his hand around her slim tender waist.
Her hair fell on her face and he took it away with his fingers. Their eyes locked and she started feeling the irregular movement of her heart again.
It wasn’t new to Pascal as his loud heart beats came.
They stayed in that position staring at each other till Pascal’s eyes went to her chest and a silly grin fell on his lips.
He leaned closer to her and Josephine swallowed hard.
“You are not wearing a bra?” He muttered in a small voice.
