"Penny," he groaned in my ear. He lightly bit my earlobe as he found his own release.
Addiction - Chapter 12
Sunday
Someone cleared their throat. My eyelids felt heavy. I slowly opened my eyes and saw my parents standing by the door.
Oh shit.Professor Hunter had his arm around me and his eyes were still closed.Shit!I elbowed him in the stomach.
"Penny," he mumbled and kissed my shoulder.
I elbowed him again. I was relieved to see that my hospital gown was tied back in place. James must have done it after I had fallen asleep. "Mom, Dad, hi."
"Huh?" Professor Hunter opened his eyes.
Oh my God.I had no idea what to do. I pushed Professor Hunter again so he'd get off the bed. "James," I whispered and tilted my head toward my parents.
He slowly sat up. His hair was sticking up in that sexy way it always did after we slept together.Oh my God, he has sex hair.And my parents are standing there seeing him with sex hair. I ran my fingers through my hair just in case I looked anything like Professor Hunter.
Professor Hunter rubbed his eyes and looked over toward the door. "Oh." He pretended to cough as he zipped up his pants. "Oh, umm..." he quickly climbed off the bed and laughed awkwardly.
Holy fuck. Did they hear him zippering his pants?
He looked down and zipped up his hoodie to hide his naked torso.
This isn't happening.
"Wow, this is not how I expected to meet you Mr. and Mrs. Taylor." He ran his hand through his hair and looked over to me. He looked so uncomfortable and nervous. Which made him look even younger.Thank God he looks so young.
"Mom, Dad, this is James."
James walked over to my parents and held out his hand to my father. "I've heard so much about both of you. It's a pleasure to meet you, sir."
My dad looked at me and then back at James. He seemed pissed. "That's quite the shiner," he said dryly and shook James' hand.
"Oh." Professor Hunter touched his black eye and tried to laugh it off. "I had forgotten about that. Just a misunderstanding." He turned toward my mom. "And Mrs. Taylor." He put his hand out and she quickly shook it. She didn't look angry at all. She actually looked ecstatic.
"Excuse my outfit." Professor Hunter tugged the zipper on his hoodie all the way up to his neck. "I just rushed over as soon as I heard what happened." He leaned down, picked up his shoes off the floor, and sat down in a chair. He laced his shoes and stood back up.
"It's so nice to meet you, James," my mom said. She was smiling from ear to ear. "So how do you know Penny?"
"Oh." He smiled over at me. "We actually met at a coffee shop on Main Street at the beginning of the semester."
"Is that so?"
"And we ended up having a class together. Comm."
"Do you hate it as much she does?" my mom asked.
Professor Hunter laughed. "I actually love the class. It's my favorite this semester. Mostly because Penny's in it." He smiled at me. "You know, I didn't actually know she hated it, though. Her speeches are really good. She tends to be too hard on herself."
"That's what I always say," my mom responded.
This could not be any more awkward.
"It's so nice to get to meet Penny's new friends. We got to meet Brendan yesterday. Such a sweetheart. He stayed and waited for hours to see if she was okay. Are you friends with him too?"
A cloudy expression crossed over Professor Hunter's face. But only for a second. I was probably the only one who saw it.
