Shiranda's POV

   I'm currently in Econ, and as if Ms. Stevens herself wasn't distraction enough, all my mind can think about is the kiss with her yesterday.

The way her lips danced with mine, how soft they were, the way her muscular arms wrapped around me like she never wanted to let me go......

It was starting to engulf me.

I watch her as she talks to the class.  The interactive lessons and tutoring have been helping me get my grade up, but right now, I don't care about anything pertaining to class.  I'm just waiting to get a moment with her alone.

As the clock slowly ticks on, the bell rings, releasing us students to go home.  Everyone makes a beeline for the door, everyone except me.

I walk up to her desk.  "Wanted to chat, Shiranda?"  I almost lose focus of the mission, getting lost in her attire that I adore so much.

I tug on the hood of my hoodie, a hand in one of its pockets.  "Um, well....."  Damn, I didn't really plan on how I was gonna bring it up.  "About yesterday......"

"What happened yesterday?"  She says, a confused frown plastered on her face.  Wait a minute.....

"You- You don't remember?"  I respond, a brow-raise evident on my face.

"Remember what?"  I don't think she's playing games with me.  She legit looks and sounds like she doesn't have a clue about what I'm talking about.

"Uh....never mind."  I quickly grab my bookbag and sling it onto my shoulders, rushing for the door as fast as I can.

Just as I'm out of the door, Kiera appears.  "Hey, Sexy Stud."  She greets me, bright smile apparent.

"Uh, hey, Super Bass....."  She looks at me with a brow arched.  "Did you forget I was coming to walk you to your car?"

Shit, I completely forgot about that.

"Nah, nah. Let's go."  I kiss her on her forehead and hold her hand in mine.  We start walking, her trying to make conversation.

I'm trying to, but I'm not really caring about what she's saying.  "Damn, that's crazy."  I say, feeling like I just did an auto-reply.

Ms. Stevens' POV

I'm laying down in bed, the room dark, my hands latched together behind my head.  I tried to sleep, but I can't.

What the hell was she talking about?

I've been trying to figure out what caused Shiranda to act so strange today.

I didn't know what she wanted to talk to me about, but it must've been important for her to want to stay back and talk about it....right?

I initially thought she just wanted to talk about her grade.  It has gone up from a low C to a high B, and I was proud of her for finally making an effort to get a better grade in my class.

But apparently, that wasn't it.  Will I ever know the truth?
