You were matched by someone much older than you, he was your lecturer, Eliot, you made an agreement with Eliot to keep your and Eliot's engagement a secret from everyone on campus.

Eliot was teaching as usual, but his sharp eyes often glanced at you as if he was watching you.

You often joke around with your desk mates, it obviously makes Eliot annoyed, after class Eliot approached you and said "come to my office during lunch break, don't take 'no' for an answer."
