Chapter 4 (Meet the professor)

*Hey guys, please be reminded that every single event, places, and characters are to be remains fictional in this story.

Alright everyone calmed down, I know you guys knew or probably have figured out the owner of those dark blue eyes. Yes, indeed he has already witnessed the moment Aubrey and Eric have shared just now.

Alessio clenched his fist, a bit hard to control his anger. He did not know what this strange feeling is he had right now, but that's not the point. The point is he dislikes the idea of Aubrey being touched by another guy besides him.

He shook his head unbelievable at the sudden possessiveness he has on a woman he barely knew.

'What is wrong with you Alessio, you and her, just a stranger having an intimate moment last night. That's it.'

Alessio took a deep breath trying to calm himself down, clutching his briefcase and enter the class.

… … …

"By the way, Eric, do you know anything about our replacement professor today?"

Aubrey pulled out the sits and took out her stuff from her bag, getting ready for the class. Eric sat beside her doing the same thing.

"Yes, I did actually, quite a reputable guy though. Rumours said he is Ms. Agnes's older brother, and he is not a professor" Eric whispered at the end of his sentences.

"Dang… that's bad news. Remember Mdm Schlegel's replacement last year. Horrible isn't it, luckily, Mdm Schlegel comes back after a month of vacation." Her eyebrows wrinkled at the memory.

Don't blame her for being judgemental when you have a horrible replacement lecturer who had done nothing but talking about his experience in every single class.

Eric laughed at her reactions. That's one thing Eric liked about Aubrey. She did not hide her feelings about something either it is about a person or the situation and intolerable decisions. She is just being bold and straight forward which is something you don't see in most women.

Eric looked at Aubrey with his eyes gleaming warmly and happily. Meanwhile, Aubrey who was still busy finding her favourite pen in her bag did not notice Eric's expressions.

However, another guy who was just entered the class watch the whole scene did not settle well on the situation especially he notices the gleaming in Eric's eyes.

That is the look he is so familiar with.

Alessio quickly walks forward to the table.

Then…

A loud thump coming in front of the class which grabs the attention of all students.

Soon enough, all females were checking out the man in front of the class. Their eyes were gleaming brightly full of surprise. Below the table, they started to text in the class community discussing the guy.

"Good morning everyone. I am Alessio Aldo and will be your lecturer for this semester. Nice to meet you all." Alessio said in full of confidence. His aura was so attractive that only appeared to those who have full powers in their hands.

However, nobody seems to care what he said especially the women in the class. That is because they were all fangirling him. If not because of his strong aura, they will certainly be shouted in excitement.

EXCEPT one person in the class seems to be stupefied by the whole situation.

What would be the most awkward and worst moment in your life?

Well in Aubrey's case, it will be this moment.

She can't believe her own eyes. She blinked and blinked again trying to make sure this is not another dream. But no matter how hard she pinched herself, that figure did not disappear.

'Now Aubrey, aren't you regret not listening to me last night?' The angel Aubrey said in her arrogant and sassy intonation.

If someone is talking to her like that, she won't hesitate to smack her FACE!

But she couldn't agree more how true is that. Aubrey grabs her hair unconsciously and looking at the man, hoping he did not notice her.

'This must be another sick joke right; I mean why is the world so SMALL?!

Did you know what is the feeling to meet your new lecturer that turns out to be the one you slept with?

Let me tell you the answer, IT IS BEYOND EMBARASSING…

This is much worse than meeting your ex that turns out to be your stepfather'

Aubrey slammed her head on the table that she did not realize the whole class was looking at her. Eric looked at how strange Aubrey act and poked her.

"Stop it, Eric," Aubrey said a bit loudly, annoying at his poking. That's when she realized something's off.

"I just one to say its' your turn to introduce yourself" Eric whispered, trying hard to hold his laughed, but his lifted lips had said otherwise.

Aubrey quickly stands up and looked in front to meet with Alessio's stare. She gulped in awkwardness, clearly uneasy about the situation. For the first time, she was startled.

"My…my…a…name…No…I…" Aubrey stopped, inhale, exhale.

'you can do it, be cool, be cool'

"I am Aubrey Callum, 20" and there she is, she made it. Almost immediately she sat down. Except that's not the end. Before she could sit back, Eric pulled her up.

"Your hometown Miss Callum?" Alessio asked when Aubrey seems to be at loss.

"Los Angeles, California, sir" and…she sat. As if there was a laughed button hidden in the class, the whole class cracked into laughter almost simultaneously.

Aubrey scratched her nose and lowered down her head, staring at her table, hiding her awkwardness away.

As the lesson started, Aubrey act coolly about the whole situation and ignored the small voice discussing how she had embarrassed herself in front of a Greek god.

Only god knows how hard she prayed for the class to end soon. However, seems like god is pulling a sick prank over her, a few hours seem like a decade has passed to reach the end of the sessions.

Once the needle struck at ten, she literary stuffing everything inside her bag without even bothered to put them back in their case. If she thought she is fast, then she has truly underestimated the other student.

By the time, she lifted her chin, it's only her and Alessio left in the room. As if sensed her emergency, Alessio said;

"That was quite a performance you've put on."

Aubrey stops her step and glares at him.

"Well, thanks to you, I had a fabulous laid last night."

Rolling her eyes, she smirked and left him.
