Professor: A First Time Novel (4 page)

Except there’s nothing “professor” about Liam Martin; nothing dry or stuffy or old like the title usually implies. Professor Martin with the sexy black glasses, the thick beard, and the sleeve of tattoos running up his arm. Professor Martin who
barely
adheres to any sort of professional dress code, wearing t-shirts and jeans to lecture most of the time - not that
any
member of the female student body or probably faculty objects, I’m sure.
 

Professor Martin who’s
gorgeous
, in that dark, brooding writer way. Professor Martin who probably doesn’t even know who I am, even thought I sit at the front of his lecture three times a week, because he’s got every girl on campus gaga over him.
 

Except right then, he’s staring at me like he’s
hungry
, his eyes devouring me in a way that sends a shiver down my back as I catch my breath and lose myself in those eyes, completely ignoring the iced coffee drenching the front of my shirt.

But he’s not.

I blush as I look down and realize how
soaked
my tank top is, suddenly very much regretting leaving my button-up shirt in the car. And I want to cover up, or die from embarrassment, but it’s then that I see his eyes and that hungry look on his face, and I feel something
warm
start to burn inside of me.
 

Because
God
do I like how he looks at me.

I notice the splashes of coffee on his own shirt and wince. “Oh my God, I got it all over you! I am
so
freaking sorry!”

He grins when I say, those dark eyes flashing at me as the the smile creeps across his face. “No, no not at all. Totally my fault for plowing into you.”

He doesn’t recognize me
. I suddenly realize I’m still wearing my big dark sunglasses, and a hat pulled over my unruly hair. Plus, I’d
never
be out in public in a just a tank top this tight, not without a shirt of something over it - sort of like the shirt I left in the car when I darted in real quick to get coffee before class.
 

And the combination of all this makes me someone new to him, I realize. My unruly hair is mostly tucked under my hat, and my eyes are hidden behind big shades, and I’m - well,
not
as covered as I might normally be.

I want to be embarrassed, or modified that I just poured coffee all over myself and my hot professor, but I’m not. Because the way he’s looking at me right then, like I’m something he
wants
instead of someone that just happens to have her hand up first in class has me getting warm in all
sorts
of places.

The way he’s looking at me has me
wet
.

 
I’m barely aware of what he’s even saying, so lost in just
loosing
myself in this surreal moment of having a
whole
one-on-one conversation with Liam Martin that I’m talking on autopilot until-

“Let me get your number or something. If you won’t let me pay for the shirt, let me take you out to dinner or something instead.”

I blush bright red, feeling the heat glow through my whole body.
Oh my God, Liam Martin just asked me out
.

It’s like every stupid girly daydream I’ve ever had while I’m sitting in his class losing myself in watching him or listening to him talk. The dirty, hot, totally inappropriate daydreams, I might add. I mean Liam Martin is easily twice my age, and my
professor
. The daydream involving the two of us is hot because it’s so wrong, and so inappropriate, and so far from reality.

Except here we are, and he’s
actually
asking to take me out. And do I jump on this chance? Do I give in to my dirty daydreams and tell him to take me any way he wants like I do in my dreams?

No, of course not, because I’m a big giant wimp.

And so instead, I’m blushing and stammering like the awkward, inexperienced virgin that I am. And suddenly, even though my brain is screaming at me to shut up, I’m muttering something about being late - for the class
he teaches
, of course. And before I know it, I’m in my car halfway back to campus and yelling at myself for being such a stupid shy idiot.

I’m pulling my plaid shirt on over the coffee-stained tank top as I get out of the car, only then gasping as I realize my nipples are
totally
obvious through the wet cotton. I’m suddenly remembering that hot, hungry look of his, and I’m blushing and feeling this little thill run through my young body as I realize what the source of that
hunger
was.

It’s naughty, and totally wrong to
like
the idea of my much older professor staring at my see-through shirt like that, but there’s not denying the warm feeling pooling between my legs. There’s no denying that the thought of showing him so much has my cheeks flushed red and my panties getting wet as I slip into the lecture hall and take my seat.

Professor Martin walks in, looking incredible of course in his dressed-down t-shirt and jeans, a book under his tattooed arm like some sort of biker-turned-writer. He’s mumbles an apology out about the time before he opens his book, looks up, and suddenly
locks
eyes with me. They go wide in shock, before suddenly they’re
burning
. I can see his breath catch, and then the muscles of his neck tighten as he clenches his jaw.
 

And there’s that look again. It’s the same look he had when my big, full young tits were all but bared to him. It had me hot before, but it’s got me biting my lip, crossing my legs, and feeling
totally
turned on now seeing it again.

Oh yeah, he knows who I am now. He knows
what
I am now, seeing me here. He knows I’m his student, his most certainly off-limits, lose-your-job-over, inappropriate student.
 

Except he doesn’t look away, not at
all
.

And when I see something dark flash across those eyes, I feel a hot flush creep down my body, and I shiver at the promise in those eyes.

He’s like a hungry wolf, and I’ve never been more excited to feel like a sheep.
 

Chapter 5

Liam

She bolts the second class is over. The minute that clock hits two and the rest of the shuffling, wise-cracking freshman start to get up out of their seats, she’s grabbing her bag and darting out the door.

Right, like I’m going to let her get away again.

Yeah, I know I should stay put. I know I should sit my ass down, let her leave and then go get a big stiff drink somewhere. Maybe hit up one of the townie bars off campus and get laid.

Except fuck that. She’s like a magnate, like she’s been the whole damn lecture while I basically stared at her. I stood there like some sort of horny teenager, letting my eyes drop to the tops of her breasts peaking out of that totally not-form-fitting plaid shirt. Except it didn’t matter that she had that other shirt thrown on, because I’d
seen
what was underneath. I’d stood there all fucking class thinking of those perfect young tits wrapped up in that tight damn tank top, with her nipples slowly hardening and showing through the wet cotton.

I’d somehow meandered through Jane Eyre while I’d fantasizes about Ellie Thompson riding my cock, her face scrunched up in ecstasy as I pumped her full of my cum.
 

I shove other students out of the way, ignoring questions about class, ignoring the kid that tries to shove the three-day late report into my hands, until I see her side-stepping down a quieter hallway and making for the exit. I narrow my eyes at her, like she’s a target, as I storm right towards her.

I’m still half the hallway-length away from her when a guy in a football jersey suddenly pulls away from the stream of student walking past us and drapes an arm heavily over her shoulders.
 

I frown, feeling my jaw tense as I see it.

Jesus, of course there’s a guy.
I mean a girl that looks like that, out on her own at college? Yeah, no shit there’s a boyfriend.
 

Ted
; the name pops into my head from some other lecture I have with this piece of shit in it. One of those kids with zero business being at a school like this but gets in because they know how to hit people on a football field. Yeah, I played football too, but I didn’t
coast
on it like this asshole.

I’m rolling my eyes at my own ridiculous horny fantasy about this girl and that perfect body when another movement catches my eye. He’s got her cornered against the wall of the hallway, but it’s the way she’s shaking her head and trying to push him away that has me
growling
inside as every muscle in my body tenses.

I see the emotion flare in her eyes and the way her her whole body tenses up at his touch like she’s scared, and all I want to do is
murder
this guy. My eyes narrow as I march right towards them.

“Look, just quit being such an up-tight prudish bitch and-”

“That’s
enough
.” My voice booms out far louder than I intended it to, but the effect is perfect. Ted immediately drops his hand from it’s grip on her arm and whirls towards me, a scared look on his face that has me grinning to myself.

“It doesn’t
really
look like the young lady wants your hands on her, does it?”

“Oh, yeah, we were just talk-”

“Where I come from, ‘talking’ doesn’t involve grabbing a girl by the arm and stopping her from walking away.” I glance quickly at Ellie, who’s biting her lip as she looks at me with big, wide eyes.

Ted smirks, and for a second, I have to remind myself the consequences of putting my fist through his fucking face. “Listen, Mr. Mar-”

“
Professor
Martin,” I growl, and as I take a step towards him, he suddenly cowers a little and takes a step back.

Little punk.

“Yeah, sure, professor.”

“‘
Yes sir,
’ will do,” I say with a low voice. “And if I ever see you with your hands on a girl like that again, we’re going to have fucking
problems
. Do I make myself clear?” My eyes are locked on his, my hand in a fist at my side.

He nods quickly. “Yes, sir.”

“Move.”

He shoots one quick last look at Ellie before turning and skulking away.

I turn my attention back to her, still looking at me with those big eyes, her mouth hanging open. “Look, I hope I wasn’t putting my nose where it doesn’t belong.”

And immediately, I can think of a
few
other things I want to put where they don’t belong with this girl.

She smiles at me, that same grin from outside the coffee shop, and I can feel my cock twitch a little in my jeans. “Oh, no, that was…” She trails off and bites her lip. “Thank you,” she says quietly.

“Everything okay?”

“Yeah,” she rolls her eyes, her cheeks flushing pink. “He’s just a jerk.”
 

Her eyes dart up to mine, and I can see her breath catch a little in her throat. “Look, Professor Mar-”

“You should have said something,” I say, cutting her off and holding those big blue eyes with my own.

I don’t know why I say it, especially since I’m already probably crossing some sort of line by intervening with whatever drama that just was with Ted. These are adults, after-all, and this isn’t high school or anything. But really, she
should
have said something. I mean she stood there letting me hit on her,
clearly
not realizing who she was with those damn shades and that fuckin’ hat on.
 

Clearly not realizing she was my damn student.

And for a second, as roaring hard and single-mindedly turned on I am for her, that little fact starts to sink in. She’s my
student
. I
could
technically lose my job over this shit if she decided to report me for harassment or something. You hear horror stories of some flirty young coed accusing a non-tenured professor of “offering to change her grade” or some sort of bullshit, and the guys career is ruined even if he never laid on a hand on her.

She’s quiet, chewing on her bottom lip as that flush creeps over her cheeks and her big wide eyes locked on mine.

“Look, I’m, uh-” I cough suddenly realizing my hand is still on her arm and dropping it as I clear my throat. “Look, I’m sorry if I was inappropriate. Your sunglasses, and the hat-”

“It’s okay, Professor Martin.”

Fuck.

There’s something so innocent about the way she says it, something off-limits and wrong about the way it almost sounds like she’s acquiescing to me that gets my cock rock hard in my jeans.

“Well, listen, I really didn’t recognize you, although I have no fucking idea how I didn’t with you front and center in class every day like you are.”

It’s not
really
flirtatious, but she blushes like I just dropped a line on her.
 

“You’re sure I can’t pay for the shirt.”

She laughs, and it’s this musical sound, her whole face twinkling as she smiles. “No, honestly, I’m the one that should be paying for
yours
.”

I shrug. “We’ll just say it’s covered by your tuition.”

She grins, biting her lip. “I’m here on a scholarship.”
