Rena Foster stared blankly at the computer screen at 7:18 am waiting for the printer to finish and her coffee to kick in. Going back to school at 26 was a dumb idea. She wasn't built to stay up until 4:00 am and then get back up at 7:00 am for her class. There was no way that she would miss that class though, not with Professor Hot-One himself teaching.
Professor Michael Hobson was 37 years old and delicious. Tall, dark and hot, with deep brown eyes, wavy black hair and a dimple that peeked out very rarely he was her personal walking fantasy.
Being an erotic romance addict, Rena had felt compelled to write a little fantasy about the good teacher. It was a story about a certain professor and a sorority girl that earns her grade the old fashioned way. Rena looked at the clock. She sprang from the desk chair to go get ready for class. If she didn't get moving she was going to look as tired as she felt when she got to class.
She dressed and groomed, then ran down to pull her paper from the printer. She quickly put her paper in the cover and placed it in her pack. She ran out the door and straight to class.
Two weeks later:
Rena copied the notes from the board frantically. Professor Hot-One was very quick with his lectures normally but today he acted as if he were being prodded with electricity. He was writing so fast and talking so fast that the entire class was struggling to get all of the information.
"He must have plans for the weekend." The lanky guy next to her said under his breath.
"No doubt." Rena answered. She looked up from her notes to find the man in question glaring at her. She glanced around trying to find the object of his glower. She looked back to him. He met her stare for a moment before turning away to get the class's graded papers.
He set the papers on the table. "Class is dismissed. Please pick up your term papers as you leave. See you all after the weekend."
Rena packed her notebook and texts and started moving with the general exodus. She stopped at the table and searched though the stacks of graded papers. Hers was missing. She searched through the entire stack three times before she moved over to speak with the professor.
"I am sorry to bother you Dr. Hobson but I cannot seem to find my paper." Rena said brightly. "I just wanted to check to make sure that you received it."
"Yes, Ms. Foster, I did." He said frostily. "I am afraid that I will have to ask you to come with me to my office so that we can discuss some questions I have about your paper." He watched the remaining students straggling out.
"Oh, sure no problem. Would you like me to set up an appointment for later or are you free now?" Rena asked a little surprised.
"Now, Ms. Foster. These issues will not wait." The professor grabbed his things and headed out the door with Rena following quickly behind. They made it to his office door and went in. He closed the door and locked it securely.
Rena stood warily by the desk. For some reason the professor seemed angry. What could she have possibly written about Gamma Rays that would have caused that kind of reaction? She wondered silently.
"Ms. Foster, I would like to preface this conversation by saying I have never had an affair with a student." He spoke blatantly. "So if you are hoping to blackmail me, it won't work. I have no idea where this came from but it is not true in any way."
"I'm sorry, what?" Rena said in confusion.
Mike glowered down at her. He had never been more angry or more turned on in his life as he was when he read her paper. "Gamma Pi," he didn't even think about the title when he had opened it, but apparently it was the name of the sorority the girl that had done amazing, if untrue, things with him.
Now Rena Foster stood in his office playing dumb. If she was going to print this or give it to administration she would have quite a fight on her hands. He planned to sue her for libel, slander and pandering.
The only reason she would give this too him is if she wanted to get a better grade in the class. Her attempts at blackmailing him were not going to work. He had done nothing that anyone could find useful enough to blackmail him with. He would be damned if some young, hot girl would ruin him with lies.
She stared waiting for him to explain his weird behavior. "I'm sorry, but I have no idea what you are talking about." Rena sighed.
"I am referring to your paper, Ms. Foster. The one you apparently hoped to blackmail a better grade out of me with." Mike snarled.
"I have an A- in your class. I have no need to blackmail you for anything. Now what is going on?" She snapped.
Mike walked over to his briefcase and pulled the well read pages out and handed them to her. She took them and opened the cover.
"Oh, my god." She groaned. Her cheeks heated with a blush so hot she was practically on fire. "Oh god, I am so sorry. I am soβoh, god!"
Rena glanced down again at her well written erotic fantasy that she had apparently printed instead of her term paper on Gamma Rays. She wanted to die. She stood there so embarrassed she did not know what to do. Run, her mind screamed. Don't look at him, just run.
She tried to follow the dictates of her brain but he cut her off and blocked the route to the door. He stood in front of the door and forced her to face this monumentally embarrassing mistake. She looked around frantically trying to find another way out. There was nothing, not a window or even a low air duct.
"What is this? Do you work in a cave?" Rena screamed with frustration.
Mike was surprised to find himself laughing. He could tell that she was not acting. She had no idea that he had gotten that paper. He was deeply relieved that she was not planning to blackmail him.
But where did the paper come from, then?
"Calm down, Ms. Foster. Let's sit down and discuss what happened." Mike gestured to a chair.
"Why? Why do we have to talk about this?"
"Please Ms. Foster." He motioned again.
Rena walked over and slumped dejectedly into the chair. He smiled at her antics as he moved around to his chair.
"So who told you that I was doing these kinds of things to my students?" Mike asked calmly.
