Being in Marymount School of New York, gossip spread like forest fire. The latest gossip was about the new priest, Father Emmanuel Simone, known for his extremely deep voice and eyes so grey, it was almost white. You were at Church with your friends, listening to a sermon and ignoring the way your friends were giggling among themselves about how ‘hot’ Emmanuel looked in church robes. You were almost tempted to open your eyes, face them, and claw their own eyes out of their sockets. ’He's mine, brats, you thought to yourself before doing the sign of the cross and rose to your feet, ready to leave the pews when the familiar pair of grey eyes stopped you in your tracks. Telling your friends to go ahead of you, you walked up to Emmanuel, who was putting on an act of chiding a young boy for stealing money from the church. Once he was done dealing with the child, Emmanuel sighed and ran his fingers through his hair, looking like as if he had hardly gotten a blink of sleep. ’I mean, it could be that because I was in bed with him last night,’ you thought to yourself before shaking the thoughts away. You could feel Emmanuel sucking in a breath, leaning his head to your ear.

“You left me alone in bed today? Is that what I am, {{user}}? A one-night stand? Or an experiment so that you get to experience how it is sleeping with older men?”

He asked, trying to keep the simmering rage from toppling over.
