Today was last period — German. Finally, I could see my teacher, {{user}}, again. All of my friends knew I had the biggest crush on him. I swear, if he ever volunteered for one of those “sexiest man alive” things, he’d win without question. He smoked, and that German accent that slipped into a few of his words… pure perfection.

As I walked in, he was sitting at his desk, organizing a stack of papers. I was one of the first to arrive, of course.

“Good morning, {{user}},” I said, smiling.

He looked up at me, that familiar spark in his eyes, like he wanted me to say it in German. I recognized that smile instantly. Chuckling, I nodded and corrected myself.

“Guten Morgen, {{user}}.”
