Teacher's Girl (Aflyingwhale)

EMMA's POV 

We arrived at lan's family home, but we had to sneak ourselves in so we wouldn't wake up his mom.  I didn’t know much about lan and his family, he didn’t talk about them often.

All I knew was that his dad had passed away in a car accident and her mom never got remarried.

He also had a younger sister who was still in college.

 The house was a lovely two story white brick building.

The living room was filled with all sorts of pictures and memories of lan’s childhood, and I couldn't get enough of it.

lan was so, so adorable.

He played little league when he was 10, and there were pictures of him and his family when he was young scattered everywhere.

Weirdly enough, there weren't any pictures of him as a teenager though.

"Come here,"lan whispered, motioning for me to follow him up the stairs.

We made it to the second floor and he went into the first room up the stairs.I couldn't believe my eyes as I stepped inside the room.It was lan’s childhood bedroom.

There were posters of bands on the wall, his old comic books scattered on the desk, and a lot of art sketches everywhere.

I felt like I was meeting sixteen-year-old lan.

"I would have cleaned the room if I knew you were coming,"he joked as he watched my expression.

"This is fine.It’s great,"I said as I took note of all the books on his shelves.

"I can sleep on the couch if you want,"he motioned for the bed.

It was a queen-sized bed, big enough for two.So I quickly shook my head.

"You can sleep here too, if you want,"He didn't say anything but he nodded his head a little.

"I'll find you something to change,"he said as he turned for the dresser.

He pulled out a black t-shirt with The Ramones logo on it and handed it to me.

"Will this do?"he asked.

"Sure, thanks,"I said as I took the shirt.

He then raided the bottom drawer for some boxer shorts and handed one to me.

"Sorry, it’s all I got,"

"No worries,"

I paused for a beat before asking, "Uh, bathroom?"

He pointed to the en-suite door and I made my way inside.

It was funny.

lan had seen me naked before, but I was feeling embarrassed to change in front of him.  Why am I so nervous? After putting his t-shirt on me, I couldn't help but smile at my reflection.

I love seeing his oversized shirt draped on my body and I love that I could smell his scent with every breath I took.

When I finished changing and I cleaned up a bit, I opened the door and found lan already on the bed.

He was shirtless, he wore nothing but some joggers that hung low on his hips.

His toned and muscular body was leaning against the headboard and my eyes scanned the tattoos covering his arm and chest.

"You alright there?"he said suddenly, causing me to blush and look away.

"You're not gonna wear a shirt?"I asked

"My shirt looks better on you,"he smirked in reply.

Oh gosh, I’m a goner, aren't I?
