Teacher
Chapter Four
Gohan shifted nervously as he stopped himself from ringing your door. Color spread over his cheeks over what he had been preparing himself to do for the last few days. Ever since you told him that you wanted to study him and his brother, Gohan had been trying to gain the confidence needed to lead you into a very personal topic. And after three class days, which totaled a full week already, he'd finally gained enough confidence. Which was why he was outside of your door despite the fact that he didn't have any lessons for that day.
Gohan shook off his nerves and finally rang the doorbell. He heard you apologize to someone which made his shoulders stiffened. You lived alone - who were you apologizing to?
You got to the door fairly quickly and were surprised when you saw Gohan standing there. He looked very tense and very intense as he stood so close to the open door. In fact he was so close that if you stood at the threshold like normal, you and he would have been brushing noses.
"Hi Gohan?" Your tone was unsure as you looked at him.
"Hi," he said fairly stiffly.
"You know that our lesson isn't for three more days right?"
"I know," Gohan nodded his head.
"Okay. Is something wrong?" You tried to lead him into telling you why he was there.
"You said that I was in charge of the experiment. My body, my rules. Well I thought of something."
"That's great—"
"So can I come in?"
"Gohan I'm in the middle of another lesson right now," you explained to him.
"With who?"
"Whom," you corrected him out of habit since you had already been in teacher mode.
"With whom?" Gohan corrected himself in a tense rush.
"That's private," you told him pointedly.
Unfortunately your student rounded the corner at that point. Gohan's dark eyes snapped to your student. He was taller than you; tall enough and comfortable enough to put his arm around your shoulder. Gohan's simmered in his spot as his eyes narrowed on the taller man. The fact that you stepped forward and ducked your shoulders to get out of the overly familiar hold helped a little. Especially seeing as Gohan himself hadn't moved which meant that for a brief moment your cheek had rubbed against his nose. For someone who could move faster than you could see that contact felt like a lot longer than it had for you.
"Hey kid," the man spoke in a rich, friendly tone.
Gohan didn't like him. At all. It didn't matter how friendly he was trying to sound. He had called him a "kid". And he didn't seem at all shocked that you'd stepped out from under his arm which meant that he'd probably done it a lot before around others. In public. This man had been near you in public. That was enough of a reason for Gohan to dislike him as it was. Everything else about him added fuel to the fire.
"My name is Gohan," the half saiyan introduces himself instead of greeting him.
"John."
You shifted nervously. The tension was so thick that you probably could have cut it with a knife.
"You should invite the kid in. I don't mind," John said as he took a step back, and yet his hand still brushed along your shoulder cap when he spoke.
"Why would you need to mind?" Gohan asked with a serious expression.
You looked at him disapprovingly. "That's rude."
"Sorry," he said as he looked at you.
You knew that it wasn't his most sincere apology. He hadn't even tried to disguise the insincerity or even direct it to the right person. Something really must have been bothering him.
"Come on in Gohan," you told him with a deep exhale. "Close the door behind you please."
You turned around which was John's cue to move back into your living room. At the moment it looked more like a little library than a living room. Books and subsequently book shelves lined most of the walls, breaking only for the window on the longest wall. The shortest wall, where the doorway was, was home to a comfy looking couch, high coffee table, and a lowered chair on the other side. At the moment there were history and algebra books and materials splashed out across it. Along with a few short essay questions that John had apparently been in the middle of trying to answer.
"So what brings you here?"
The guy was too friendly. Gohan already didn't like him as it was so that just meant that to him, the older male was just trying too hard. Which was a bit judgmental but it wasn't like Gohan could help who he did and did not like.
"I'm helping her with an experiment."
"So you're her little assistant. How cute."
Gohan bristled at the barbs. Which you apparently hadn't been paying enough attention to in order to recognize. Instead you simple resumed your spot on the couch. And the moment you did not boys got the hint that class had resumed. Sort of.
What was disconcerting was the fact that one minute Gohan had been right there. The next he was sitting beside you. And then you felt a rush of air push you back into your student. You didn't know it at that point but Gohan had literally moved so fast to claim the couch spot beside you that he overdid it and left a gush of wind to follow in his wake. Thankfully there hadn't been enough space for him to cause an actual shock wave when he went too fast. As it was you were an embarrassed mess as you pushed yourself away from Gohan. The fact that he was helping in a not very helpful way with his fingers lingering on your shoulder didn't really help. As far as you were concerned you must have shocked the poor kid with how clumsy and inappropriate that was.
"I think we should just clean up," John pointed out. "It's getting pretty late for me and I need to drive back to town."
You nodded understandingly. Once you'd righted yourself you stood up. Unfortunately you hadn't thought about the view that gave the fourteen year old right beside you whom had been sitting at the same angle as you. While Gohan's gaze was distracted, John laughed to himself. That was something you noticed. So when you and he started to pick up and organize the materials, you mouthed to him a silent "what?".
John stood up and purposefully stepped in closer. Which made you a little uncomfortable consider that you'd gone over personal boundaries a few times with him. His idea of personal space and yours were just very different. The fact that the less space there was, the more charged up it seemed didn't help. And though you couldn't have known it at the time, the lack of space between you and John made Gohan uncomfortable as well.
"Are you sure you want to end early?" You asked your student.
"Yeah. I need to get home to sleep. Gotta regain my stamina for tonight," he said with a meaningful look.
"If you're sure."
"Unless you want to take me up on my offer?" John asked as he took a half step closer to you.
His gaze momentarily turned to Gohan when the fourteen year old stood up. He smirked which suited his face far too much. There was something about that cocky, confident attitude which really appealed to you. It made guys look about ten times hotter. And John was already pretty well off in the looks department.
"Uh, not today," you said mortified that John would bring that up in front of another student.
"Suit yourself."
"What offer?" Gohan asked as he walked up behind you, stopping a hair's breadth from your back.
You were praying and screaming inside your head that John didn't say anything. That would just make life really awkward. You were supposed to be the respectable, wisened and knowledgeable adult damn it. He was breaking that image of you so easily. Like you were a KitKat bar.
"I offered to Tutor her in an area of anatomy that she doesn't have experience in," John replied confidently.
"My teacher doesn't need you to teach her," Gohan said firmly. "She already knows everything."
"Not everything," you said modestly.
"Oh trust me, she doesn't know everything. I just promised to return the lessons she's been giving me in kind."
"You're still at 10th grade history. And you haven't even got through advanced algebra. How can you expect to teach her anything important?" Gohan leveled him with that serious question.
John laughed again which baffled you. He stepped in closer and pulled you to him by the hip. The hairs on the back of your neck stood on end. All of a sudden you felt like there was something very dangerous and very pissed off nearby. But you tried to squash those instincts considering that was stupid. The only ones in the house were you, John, and Gohan. And there hadn't been a dinosaur or large cat in the area for years.
"There are plenty of lessons I can give her that she'll enjoy," John said with that same self-assures attitude that you secretly found attractive. "Especially on the female and male anatomy. I get a lot of experience with that at work."
"John, this is not okay," you finally managed to tell him.
John let go of your hip and stepped back slightly. The moment he did Gohan had finally moved fast enough to get in gmfront if you. And just like the last time, the wind that followed in his wake was strong enough to knock you into him.
You caught yourself on his back. Gohan spared a worried glance over his shoulder. You were mortified. He didn't seem to mind that you'd tripped into him. He hadn't even seemed like you had at all, he was still perfectly straight using his body as a barrier between you and John. Everything about the situation was confusing and embarrassing. You righted yourself and took a deep breath.
"Well you should probably start driving home," you spoke out to the taller male. "You wanted to get to sleep right?"
"Right," he responded reasonably as Gohan stayed quiet. "Nice meeting you kid."
When you started to follow John to the door to show him out, Gohan caught your hand. He looked one part worried and another part pissed. You gripped his hand reassuringly and told him to sit down. You actually had to repeat yourself with a more authoritative voice before the half saiyan let go and listened. Which only seemed to amuse the lingering man named John even more.
It wasn't until you were showing John to the door that you finally got your answer to why he'd been laughing earlier. John lingered bear the door with a mildly serious expression on his face.
"Be careful," he said quietly. Your confused look was enough to prompt him to continue. "Look, I don't really care that he's under age but the law does."
"What?"
"Your so cute," John smiled. "So innocently cute. That kid has practically been marking his territory since you opened the door. So just be careful. I don't want the best teacher in the world to get in trouble cause some tweenager can't keep it in his pants."
Your face was scarlet at that point. You rushed through the goodbyes before closing your door. He thought Gohan would be that inappropriate? The very notion was mind boggling.
