We left the frozen Dr. Perez back in the aisle.
It was a good thing that there were no other customers around to see us.
My face kept burning until we reached the cashier and the professor started placing the items on the counter. All the while, he kept his arm around my waist, his warmth, so comfortable, that I wanted to lean my head on his shoulder and let him embrace me completely.
But we were in a public place, and I know that it was inappropriate behavior.
"O, why so quiet?" he asked as we left the grocery store.
"Nothing."
"What? Are you worried about the rumors Pretzel might spread about us?" he asked. "Look, my cheek still stings!"
"No," I replied, "I doubt he would tell a soul, since he doesn't seem to want to believe in what he saw."
The professor laughed and hugged me as I pushed our cart towards the parking lot.
"You got that right! I had no idea that Pretzel was living in his own make believe fantasy world where the two of you are the only people in existence!"
"I think he ignored you on purpose."
"I know," he grinned. "That's why I kissed you on purpose."
He kissed me again on the cheek.
I faced him, look at him through lowered lids, and welcomed another kiss. As our lips touched, I couldn't help but feel elated, that the professor I look up to has finally told someone about our relationship.
Until our kiss was rudely interrupted by the professor's ring tone.
He took his phone out and brightened up when he saw who was calling.
"Ah, just a sec, Habibi, my bebe Meme is calling!"
He quickly tapped the accept button.
"Hello, bebe?"
'Hello? Tito Eric?' said a childish voice from the phone.
"What's up? How's my favorite niece?" the professor answered back. I lean my head on his shoulder to listen in on their conversation.
'I'm okay, how about you, Tito?'
"I'm doing fine, just missing you and your siblings. Particularly my precious bebe Meme! So why did you call?"
His cheesy lines irritate me.
'Kuya wants to ask you about something about omegas,'
There was a pause as the phone was handed to someone else.
'Hello po, Tito?' said a husky male voice.
"What?" replied the professor in a much duller tone.
'Tito, just wanna ask if you know anything about dominant omegas?'
Professor Antonio stiffened.
We looked at each other, wide-eyed.
"And where did you hear about that?" he asked his nephew carefully.
'I just read it somewhere...' his nephew replied.
"Where? Which book? Who's the author?" the professor asked.
'Nothing... just... it's something I saw somewhere... I was just wondering if there really are such a thing as dominant omegas?'
Professor Antonio looked at me again.
I shrugged at him.
"Ahh... that's a bit of a long story... why don't you drop by at my office tomorrow? I can explain it to you better then."
'Ah, is that so–'
"Bring my bebe Meme with you when you come!" he added hurriedly. "I'll see you there tomorrow then, at about 1 pm. Goodbye."
"Why did you drop the call so suddenly?" I asked him. "You should have asked him more where his information came from."
"Are you crazy? What if someone way listening in our conversation?" he whispered. "What's more, that nephew of mine is a very stubborn idiot. If I tell him about it, chances are, he'd be posting it all over his social media account even before the day is through!"
"Is that so?"
"Yeah, that's why it'd be better to talk to him face to face and ask him personally where he found out about that stuff."
"Hmm... but we have a meeting tomorrow morning..."
"You take care of that. You know I don't like going to anymore of those blasted meetings."
We got home at half past 9.
The professor went straight to the laboratory.
"Are you planning to start another experiment?" I asked him.
"Yeah... I've got something new in mind..."
"About what?"
"A new suppressant. This time, I plan to use all natural ingredients so that athletes can safely use it during competition, without worrying about illegal substances showing up in their medical test results."
"Ah, is that what you've been thinking about all day?"
"Yup, I'm working with herbal medicines, problem is, I still haven't found a good replacement for Cannabis Sativa. I'm still searching for a good relaxant that works like marijuana, but without the side effects."
"But professor, aren't you tired already? Why not rest for a while?" I touched his arm.
"I'm fine, just make me some coffee." He looked at me. "I can have some coffee now, right? I had water all day!"
"Okay, but I really think you should go to bed early," I placed both hands on his shoulders and gently massaged him.
"I'm not that tired..."
"But yesterday and the day before that, you hardly had a couple of hours sleep..."
"I'll sleep before midnight."
"That's what you said the other night," I placed my arms across my chest, "you went to the office half asleep and ended up napping through lunch break."
"Haay, Habibi, just tell me if you wanna cuddle with me in bed."
"I didn't say that, I just want you to get more sleep."
"But we just ate, I'm still full so I can't go to sleep yet!"
"Right, we should first get some rest."
I pulled him to our room.
I have long replaced the double bed with a king size one so we could comfortably lie in it. I sat him on the bed and proceeded to take his work clothes off.
"Hah, I knew it! My Habibi has a different plan for me tonight!" he grinned at me. "Wasn't the kiss earlier enough to satisfy you?"
"Go to the bathroom and change, I'll go after you," I answered instead.
"Let's go together." He held me close and kissed my nape. "I wanna shower you with kisses..."
We went to the bathroom to prepare ourselves.
"Uy, we forgot to buy toothpaste!"
"There is still a little left."
"Or, you can just use the mouthwash instead!."
"You just want my breath to be minty fresh."
"Of course, for later!" he grinned at me and kissed my nose as his brows rise up and down.
"Go wash yourself first," I pointed at the tub.
"Let's bathe together."
Later, we're both naked in the tub. I had my back to the professor who combed my hair with his long fingers and nuzzled my nape. It felt so comfortable, lying on his chest, that soon I was nodding off.
"Hey, don't fall asleep on me! Let's get out of the bath before the water gets any colder."
We dried ourselves off and went to our room where the professor gently pulled me after him. He lay on the bed with me on top of him. He caressed my face as I straddle him and rub his chest.
All the exercise paid off.
He may not be as buff as I am, but at least he's not as soft as he used to be.
"So, are you happy now that someone found out about our relationship?" he asked with a smug grin.
I nod and kiss him gently.
"There's no reason for you to sulk anymore." He stroke my hair, tucking it behind my ear, then he caressed my lips before kissing me back.
Sex with the professor is always gentle, sensual and passionate.
He may not be the best partner in bed, but I always feel treasured when I am with him.
I trail my kisses down his chest and slowly made my way between his legs. He's all hard now, and he moaned as I mouthed him.
"Ahh... minty fresh..."
His hips move as I suck him until he quivers and releases his seeds inside my mouth.
"Come..."
He pulls me up and places my arms around his neck. His hands slide down my back and go round my buttocks as we kiss, his hardness rubbing against mine. I close my eyes and feel him slip inside as I lower myself.
He thrusts inside me as well, going deeper, panting as he moves faster. His embrace get tighter, until he could hold back no longer and his hot seeds burst inside me. I gasp as he pushed me on the bed, moving behind me, thrusting even deeper.
"Ughn... Aahmes... Aahmes..."
He only calls my name when we are having sex.
"Eric, go faster..."
He slips his arms around my waist and lifts my hips higher, thrusting even harder inside me.
"Aaah... that's it, professor..." I sink my fingers into the covers. I'm almost at my limit.
"Haa... Ahh... Aahmes..."
He kissed me all over as he fell on my back. Again I feel his delicious heat spread inside me. I snuggle in his chest then, happy and well content until I fall asleep, thinking that I could stay like this forever.
I am by the professor's side, by the person I look up to the most.
What more can I ask for?
What more would I need?
