My cheeks were scarlet as I took a seat at my desk, glancing around at my fellow class mates nervously like they might somehow realise what was going on.
"Alright Grace?" Ben nodded at me, grinning in a slightly teasing way. "You feeling okay?"
I instantly stiffened as I took in his smile. "I'm fine. Why do you ask?"
I hadn't expected my reply to come out so snappy and defensive but I couldn't help it, the feel of the vibrator inside me setting me on edge, nerves prickling my body. Ben's grin quickly faded at my less than friendly response.
"I don't think I've seen you turn up early for class all semester, that's all."
"Oh, she's probably realised that she has to actually put some effort in or she'll be out of here in June."
All I needed was Erica's snide comments winding me up. I turned to face her, letting my hand do most of the talking as I flipped her the finger, smiling with a saccharine sweetness.
"You won't be so smug when you fail," she sneered.
"Get fucked Erica," I muttered under my breath, just loud enough for her and Ben to hear, then I added with a smirk "Or maybe you're
not
getting fucked and that's the problem. It'd explain how uptight you are."
Ben started sniggering instantly and Erica glared back at me. The rest of the room had fallen quiet now but she still couldn't resist needling me further in retaliation.
"You're a loser Grace. Everyone thinks it... even Professor Murphy doesn't think it's worth wasting his time on you any more."
Little did she know...
But I didn't get chance to react before Tom's voice boomed out across the room.
"Okay we'll make a start shall we? If you're quite finished Erica? Unless there's something you want to share with all of us?"
"Sorry. No. I'm ready. Sorry."
I couldn't hide my self-satisfied grin as I glanced across to take in her flustered response. It was hardly a scolding but you'd think so by her reaction, cheeks flushing, apologising profusely as she scrambled to open up her textbook to the page annotated on the whiteboard.
Tom opened up the lecture in his usual engaging style, introducing the topic then inviting comments for discussion. It seemed just like any other lecture, and after fifteen minutes I began to wonder whether his intention was just to scare me to warn me against stepping out of line and not to actually punish me so publicly.
Yes, that must be it. He'd be crazy to get me all worked up and make me come in front of all my fellow students. He wouldn't just be disrupting my learning but everyone else's too. He just wasn't as reckless as I had thought. I felt myself start to relax, my mind wandering as I watched him stride over to the projector controls on the lectern to switch to the next slide in his presentation, smiling to myself at the sight of his pert ass in those trousers.
With the next slide on the screen he launched into a long spiel about democracy in post-war Germany. It was perfectly interesting, and I knew that the information would be crucial in my exam, but he was just looking so bloody dreamy standing there it caused a momentary lapse in my concentration. And it wasn't that I wasn't taking in his words, I was, this was just the best way for me soak up information, letting his words flow over me, one elbow on the desk, propping up my head in my hand, my gaze raking lazily down his body then back up, then down again...
Now what would he look like minus that shirt?
That's when I felt it. A tiny pulse, like a slow, steady heartbeat, deep down in my core. I immediately sat upright, my back as rigid as a poker, eyes flicking straight to Tom's. He was looking right at me, barely disguised smirk on his lips, eyes glowing with a wicked kind of delight.
"Maybe you'd like to share your views on this particular topic Grace?"
Crap... I realised then exactly how much I'd zoned out, and I just knew that he was going to make me pay for it. The toy gradually came to life inside me, pulsating gently, a warmth spreading through me, not enough that I couldn't hide it, but enough to make me shift in my seat.
"I'm sorry Sir, I just lost my concentration for a...."
I couldn't finish my sentence, my words cut off with a loud gasp as the pulsations intensified suddenly, making me snap my legs closed as the sensations started to vibrate against my clit. I could feel the eyes of my class-mates on me and my eyes widened at Tom, trying to hold my body still as the toy buzzed inside me, silent to the ear and invisible to those around me, but blaring out to my body, threatening to drag me into a realm of pleasure that I wouldn't be able to disguise.
"You mean you weren't listening, hmm?"
His voice had a stern edge but I could discern the hint of amusement, a challenge dancing in his eyes as I realised the hand casually hidden in his jacket pocket is what was controlling this thing. And it felt good... so damn fucking good, the delicious pulse inside of me, the concentrated vibrations on my aching clit. If only I wasn't sat in a lecture room full of unsuspecting fellow students I'd be writhing in my seat right now.
I shook my head, not daring myself to speak for fear of letting out a moan, hoping Tom would take pity on me and lessen the sensations, or at least divert the attention away. He wasn't feeling merciful though, the vibrations ramping up steadily until I could feel my legs quivering under the table, inescapable waves of pleasure starting to ebb and flow between my thighs. My heart was racing, my cheeks on fire.
"Speak up Grace. If there's something else more interesting taking your attention then I'm sure we'd all like to hear about it."
