His touch

I am a lecturer in the university

I’ve known thousands of kids; thousands of faces, thousands of names, thousands of prospects, and dreams, and frustrations.

 Thousands of characters, some with talent, some with none. Some who care, some who coast, a few who are outstanding. A few who create true beauty in words a few who can bring words into life.

 I teach English, and I love my job. I love being Mr Denison the teacher, the.mentor, the role model.

   But I’m also a man.
   A man with urges.

   Mr Denison the teacher and Mr Denison the man rarely cross paths. They don’t need to. They’ve never needed to.
   Until now. 
   Until her.

I let out a loud sigh as I immersed myself fully into the book, my friend Kylie walked towards me as she removed her cigarette from her mouth

"You're going to get wet though." She said and passerbys looked at us as I chocked on my saliva

"Excuse you." I said

"You're going to get wet sitting on the damp as fuck grass." She finished much more clearly

Trust Kylie to always drop innuendos

'You're going to get suspended if you get caught smoking on campus." I replied

"Good thing they won't." She said

Kylie and I had been friends since the second grade when I traded my fried spiced chicken for tuna sandwich.

"This isn't highschool though." I said

"Obviously that's why I'm smoking." She replied

"Let's get to class." She saids

Shit! Mr Denison

I'm sure that man has a personal vendetta against me or something like that

"Jessica Manifold at six' O clock." I said

Jessica Manifold was born popular. Her type and our type didn’t mix, and I was glad, truthfully.
Her type was big hair and pink lipstick and fake personality. I’d rather be an outcast any day of the week than one of those fake babbling girls. Just as well, really.

Jessica Manifold was the most popular girl in my department, everyone knows her, and she made it her mission to hate and terrorize Kylie

   Kylie let out a sigh and scrunched up her curls before giving me a mock pout. She was short and proud, with hair too dark to be natural, and it suited her. Kylie was Kylie. Spunky and weird, predictable and my kind of person. My only real friend.
  
   We even rented an apartment together, Kylie was more than a friend, Kylie is a sister she's even a better sister than my own sister so it wasn't strange having her around.

News block
Year one lecture hall
English literature and Journalism

I set off for the news block.

▫️▫️▫️

The lecture was already in full swing by the time Kylie and I arrived and I could feel Mr  Denison's  burning gaze as I let myself into the year one lecture hall.

Mr Denison was standing at the podium and the crowded hall filled with students were looking at him taking serious notes on what he was saying, there wasn't space for Kylie and I to sit at the so we went to the back.
