• Mr. Styles pov•

She grabbed her phone out of my hand and her skin contacted with mine. I got this warm tingly feeling and I know she got it too, because she instantly pulled her hand and phone back. She stood there with a pale face unsure of what to do next. So instead she just walked towards the doorway.
" Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow, Summers." I said. She paused at the door not looking back.
" You too, Mr. Styles." She said. Her finger tips brushing across the door as she left. I leaned back in my chair. I would have never known she even had her phone out if I hadn't been watching her. Ever since she announced her name infront of the class my eyes kept finding my way back to her. Whenever I zoned out I realized I was staring at her. I shook my head, readjusting my curls. She was my student. I couldn't think like that. Maybe every teacher had that one student they fancied. I wouldn't know, this is my first year teaching. I sighed as the secound bell rung and students came rushing in for their secound hour. I looked at each one as they sat down. Nope. No other student me the feeling she did.

• Maria's Pov•

I piled into my secound hour which I, also had with Sandy.
" Sorry about getting your phone taken away in class M." She said as we sat down in history. Ugh. I was trying to forget about that. I shrugged.
" It's fine." I said thinking back to it. I remembered how his green eyes sparkled as I looked up at him after I had been caught. I was snapped out of my thoughts when class started and we began to learn about history.

I walked across the parking lot by myself after school and hopped into my car. I checked the time. I'm sure my mom wouldn't mind If I stopped somewhere for some tea. I drove down the street and parallel parked outside my favorite cafe. It was my little hidden gem. I walked inside and let the smell of soup and tea fill my nostrils. I ordered a bagel and a cup of tea to sit and eat while I played on my phone.
" Hey there." I looked up to see my good Friend Brian.
" Brian!" I said. I got up and hugged him. He was a year older than me. He was a senior last year when I was a junior.
" Maria. You look great." He said. I nodded.
" Thanks so do you."
" How was your first day of school as a senior?" He asked. I thought about the events that happened.
" It was pretty good. How about you? No longer in school." I said.
" Boring actually. But hey it was nice catching up with. I gotta get home, my mom is waiting." He kissed my cheek.
" Alright. It was good to see you Brian." I said.
" you too Maria." He headed out the door and at the same time he was leaving, someone was coming in. My eyes widened when I saw that mess of chocolate curls. He smiled at Brian and thanked him for holding the door open. I quickly looked down at my phone and sipped my tea like I never saw him. I peeked a glance again and he was standing there looking at the menu and ordering at the same time. I could see the Cashier batting her eyelashes at him. He didnt seem to notice though. He paid and stepped aside, waiting for his food. He leaned against the counter and looked around the small cafe and paused when his eyes met mine. I froze too. He had caught me staring. He looked at the ground, and shoved his hands in his pocket as he walked over to my table. Shit, Shit, Shi-
" Maria." He said.
" Mr. S-Styles." I stuttered meeting his gaze.
" What are you doing here?" He asked. I looked at my food and back up at him. Wasnt it obvious?
" Having an after school snack." I said. He nodded.
" Yeah, I've never been here before, considering I just moved here, and some of the staff at Crawford suggest this place for a nice cup of tea." He said. I nodded.
" Yeah. I love it here." I said looking around. I sipped my cup.
" Harry?" The cashier called. I didn't know his first name was Harry.
" Well, it was nice seeing you Maria. I'll see you at school tomorrow." He turned around and walked towards the counter. He grabbed his bag of food and picked up his cup to go cup of tea and left. I smiled at him as he left and he smiled at me. That was awkward. I thought once he was gone. What are the odds that he comes to the same, small cafe I do? I sighed, finishing my bagel and drinking my last bit of tea before throwing it away and heading out. I drove home and tapped my fingers to the beat of the song playing. I pulled into the drive and walked Inside.
" I'm home!" I yelled, dropping my bag on the ground at the doorstep. My mom came down the stairs.
" There you are. What took so long?"
" I grabbed a bagel from Kelly's." Kelly's was the name of the cafe. She nodded.
" So how was your first day?" She asked. I lit up.
" Great!" I said.
" That's good. Hey, since it was your first day, how about we order a pizza and call it a night ,tonight.." She said. I nodded.
" Good I'm exhausted. I havent woken up that early in ages." I said. She laughed.

The next morning I woke up to the annoying beep of my alarm clock. I got dressed, and decided to wear my hair straight today. I put on light, natural make up and headed downstairs to see my mom Sipping some coffee and reading the paper against the counter.
" Hey mom." I said.
" Hey sweetie. Hey, I'll drive you to school today because I have to go into work early." She said. I nodded.
" Alright."

She dropped me off at school and I walked inside feeling good.
" Hey Sandy." I said, coming up to her locker.
" Hey Maria, what's up?" She asked.
" Nothing. You know, I ran into Brian yesterday." I said. She gasped.
" Brian Wheeler? No way. How is he?" She asked as we walked into English. I got distracted by the man sitting behind the desk. He was grading papers in his beautiful self.
" Earth to Maria." She waved her hand in front of my face as we sat down.
" S-Sorry." I said.
" What was that about? Who were you staring at?" She asked, looking all around the room. I rolled my eyes.
" Nothing San. I just started thinking." I said. She nodded and continued talking about something on TV or whatever. I didn't care to listen. I just studied him from afar. That is until he looked up. That's when I snapped my head away and looked at the talking Sandy.
" Well, Hello class. Let's get started. Now today, I want you to open to pages 165 and do questions 1-15."
The whole class groaned as they opened their books and started to read and write. Every once in a while I would look up at him, and catch him staring. I blushed and looked down, continuing to do my work.
•••
At the end of the day, I walked down the hall and saw Sandy crying into her locker.
" Sandy what's wrong?!" I yelled as I approached her. Sandy turned to me and she had a napkin on her nose, trying to stop the bleeding.
" Will." She said. Will, her boyfriend?"
" William did this to you?" I asked. She nodded, unable to speak because she was drowning in tears.
" I'm gonna kill him." I said storming away before she had any say.
