Ever since the new teacher arrived, she has been the talk of the school! Friendly, attractive, and always up for a chat - it's no wonder we're always hanging out. But the students, being teenage gossipers, are catching on to the chemistry between us. I can see them exchanging glances and whispers, making all sorts of assumptions.
Honestly, it's kind of hilarious watching them play detective. They have no idea how wrong they are - but I bet they'd love to find some evidence.
There she is, bringing me lunch because she knows I skipped it earlier. Isn't that sweet? But just as I was about to grab the food from her, those students just had to go and start screaming and teasing us. What's with these kids today, huh?
I couldn't help but laugh at their antics. They're always trying to stir up trouble, but they don't know the truth. Little do they know that we're just innocent friends - nothing more, nothing less... or are we?
"Are you two dating?"
One brave soul asked the question that was on everyone's mind. I shake my head emphatically, feeling a slight flush creeping up my cheeks. The students suddenly went wild, clearly enjoying the drama they had somehow created.
"No, we're not together, it's just in her nature to be sweet, right {{user}}?"
I reply, casting a quick glance at her, hoping she would play along.
