“Oh My Gosh! Have you seen Roman?!” Hope asked Marlena.
“No…of course I haven’t seen him..I’m just his girlfriend” Marlena said sarcastically
“Okay, well yeah, you’ve seen him, but wow Marlena, you didn’t tell me that Roman got hot! I always thought he was pretty ugly and talked funny.”
Marlena laughed and thought about what Roman was like before. He was tall and dorky, and just last year, when they finally went to college, did he ever clean up his act. Roman, Hope, Bo, and Marlena had been the best of friends since about 8th grade. Once they had gotten into high school, they paired off: Hope and Bo, and Marlena and Roman. Marlena never really thought the relationship would last that long, but now, 4 years since he asked her out, they were still going strong. Bo, Hope, Marlena, and Roman all decided that they wanted to go to college together, so they all applied to the University of Salem. All had gotten in, except Roman, who was put on a waiting list at first, but
eventually got in.
“Sophomore year is going to be very different” Marlena said to Hope.
“Well, the first day is always easy so lets enjoy that… by the way, what classes do you have?” Hope asked.
“Well..I start out with Psychology, and then I have english, and then the best class…Sex Ed!!”
“Ha,” Hope laughed, “You’ll probably have some dirty, grimy teacher teaching that class…And he will use you for all the demonstrations!”
“Shut up!” Marlena smacked Hope. Hope just continued to laugh.
They continued walking around campus just talking about life, when Bo and Roman came up to them. Roman immediately grabbed Marlena and pulled her into a kiss.
“Roman! Get off!” Marlena yelled once she broke the kiss.
“What?! You’re my girlfriend, are you not? I can kiss you when I want to kiss you” he replied.
“I’m not your property..you don’t own me, Roman! But then again trying to talk sense into you is useless… so I’m going to class.”
Hope winked at Marlena, thinking back to their conversation earlier, but Marlena just shrugged it off, and headed over to the north building.
Once inside, Marlena thought about Roman and everything he had been doing lately. She was lost in thought, storming the hallways, when she bumped right into hard muscle which sent her heading towards the ground. A hand extended towards her to help her up, and she looked up to see who she had bumped into.
And, in that instant, Hazel locked with Blue…
Page 2 of 23
Marlena was so entranced by the beautiful blue eyes that were staring back at her, she completely forgot that she was on the ground.
“Uhm…I’m so sorry” Marlena said. Wow, Marlena thought to herself, this man is gorgeous. She scanned him up and down once with her eyes and realized this had to have been the most attractive man she had ever met. He was the epitome of tall, dark, and handsome. He stood at about 6’1’’, had dark brown hair, a lean, muscular body, and the eyes of a god.
“It’s okay,” the man replied, “You must have had something on your mind, you seemed to be concentrating pretty hard.”
“Yes..I was, but I’m truly sorry, I have to go to class!” Marlena said over her shoulder as she hurried off.
Marlena made it to Psychology class right on time, but all she could think about was the stranger that she had run into in the hallway. She didn’t even know his name. He must be a new student, she thought to herself. I wonder if he has a girlfriend…who am I joking? He’s gorgeous, of course he has a girlfriend. She continued to daydream about him during her first class, and before she knew it, Psychology was over.
She made it to her English class, and her first assignment was to write anything on her mind. Marlena tried to think of something to write, but like her previous class, all she could think about was that man.
I met a man today. I don’t even know his name, but those bright blue eyes just seemed to pull me in. He was so sexy, and I figure he must be a new student. He was so kind to me, and he asked if I was alright, but I had to go to class, so I just left. I still can’t even believe how sexy he was. Alright I must stop writing, I have to think of something else.
English class went by just as fast as Psychology, and Marlena had just one class left for the day, Sex Ed. Now she could look forward to some old man talking about sex.
Hopefully this class will go by fast, she thought, then I can go look for that gorgeous guy.
Marlena headed over to the Sex Ed room, and saw a girl who just so happened to be the center of attention wherever she went. Her name was Kristen DiMera, and she was head over heels in love with Roman. She hated Marlena with a passion and Marlena just decided to ignore any looks Kristen gave her, and walked into the classroom.
And, for the second time in one day, Hazel locked with Blue…
Page 3 of 23
Marlena stood there completely awestruck. How could she run into this gorgeous creature twice today?
“Hi…it’s nice to see you! I’m Professor Black..but please, call me John.”
John, Marlena thought to herself. Such a beautiful name for such a beautiful man.
“I’m…I’m…Marlena” She stammered.
Marlena, John thought to himself. Such a beautiful name for such a beautiful woman. He had noticed her when they bumped into each other in the hallway. He had seen those golden eyes, the soft silky blonde hair, and he felt the curve of her body fit perfectly with his. It was that split second they touched, that he felt that jolt of electricity.
“Well, Marlena, it’s nice to see you again, I hope everything is better than before.”
“Oh yes, Professor-“
“John,” he said, “Please call me John.”
“Okay, yes John, everything is better.”
“Alright” John replied, “That’s good. Remember although I’m your teacher, I’ll always be here to listen if you need me.”
“Thanks..um..I’m gonna go get to my seat now.”
Marlena turned and headed toward her seat. She had a feeling John was watching, so she shook her hips a bit, which did not go unnoticed by John.
My god, she is SO beautiful, John thought to himself, Stop thinking, she is your student, you are her professor and this is a sex ed class, ugh, this is going to be a long year.
Marlena turned and took her seat right in the center of the class, so that she could see John throughout the entire period. Kristen DiMera and her group of friends were sitting right behind Marlena. Marlena ‘accidentally overheard’ parts of their
conversation.
“Oh my gosh, Professor Black, I mean John, is SO Hot!” Kristen said to her best friend Isabella.
“I know,” Isabella replied, “I wonder if he has a girlfriend.”
“I don’t know..but if he does, she’d better watch out, because what Kristen DiMera wants, Kristen DiMera gets!”
“Thats what you think,” Marlena mumbled under her breath.
“What was that, Marlena?” Kristen yelled.
“Nothing…Nothing Kristen”
“Marlena, if I didn’t know better, I would think you were listening in on our conversation..”
“Why, whatever do you mean?” Marlena said sarcastically.”You know damn well what I mean” Kristen shouted.
“Kristen, Marlena, is there a problem?!” John asked.
“No…” They both replied simultaneously.
“Okay, I hope there isn’t. Marlena I need to see you after class…”
“Already in trouble on the first day,” Kristen whispered into Marlena’s ear.
Great, Marlena thought, Maybe Kristen is right, I’m already in trouble on the first day….
Page 4 of 23
Sed Ed class, unlike all her other classes, went by slowly for Marlena. She continued to think about what John wanted to talk to her about.
Go figure…he’s gorgeous and I’m already in trouble with him…and its only the first day, Marlena thought to herself. Damn Kristen DiMera, now she’s going to look good in front of John.
She continued to think about the end of class, watched John of course, and only slightly payed attention to the lecture.
Once class ended, Marlena sat in her seat and watched the class shuffle out. John looked up from his paperwork and smiled at Marlena.
This can’t be that bad if he’s actually smiling… Marlena thought.”Marlena,” John said, “Can we take this to my office? I don’t want anyone to walk in on us.”
Marlena felt the lump growing in her throat; John was inviting her into his office to take it somewhere more private.
“Sure, lead the way,” Marlena replied.
John stepped ahead of Marlena, and it gave her a nice view of John’s assets.
“Take a seat.” John pointed to a chair once they had gotten into his office. “Okay, so what I wanted to talk about is Kristen.”
Oh no, here it comes, Marlena thought to herself.
“Well, Marlena, I heard you and Kristen yelling at each other, and to be honest I know what kind of girl she is-“
“I know John,” Marlena cut him off. “She’s the super popular girl who everyone wants, most likely you too, so if you want me to make this easy, then I can just give you her number or something..”
“Marlena, thats not what I mean,” John started, “I don’t have any interest in Kristen whatsoever. I mean she is the type of girl that no matter what you do, will be a bitch to you. I realized you were having a bad day this morning, and then I heard Kristen yelling out threats to you, and I just wanted to tell you to ignore it.”
Marlena was so touched by John’s caring nature that she started pouring her heart out.
“John, its terrible – my boyfriend, Roman, is a jerk. He thinks he owns me. He honestly just walks up to me and gropes me, and then if I say no he’ll just yell at me. I love him, and we’ve been together for a long time, but he drives me nuts. He seriously treats me like crap!”
John was a bit startled by Marlena’s confessions, as was she, but it felt so right to be listening to her.
“Marlena you know, you don’t necessarily need to be with Roman. You aren’t married or anything. I’m sure a girl like you could get any man you want at the drop of a hat.”
“I don’t know, I don’t always seem to have luck with guys…”
“Well, trust me, you are a beautiful, intelligent, amazing woman, who any man would be lucky to be with.”
“Thanks John, thats very nice of you to say…”
“I mean it Marlena, you really are something.”
Marlena started blushing, which John thought was completely adorable.
“Well…John I’m really sorry but I have to go, I promised my friends I’d meet up with them later…”
“Okay Marlena, have a nice night,” John said as he got up.
Marlena didn’t know whether to shake John’s hand or hug him; in the past few minutes she had poured out emotions which she had told no one else. John ended up taking the initiative and pulled Marlena into a hug. Sparks flew, and to Marlena it felt like one of those connections where you see fireworks in the background. John was feeling the same thing and it scared him to be so drawn to a student, so he did the first thing he could think of, and pulled away.
Marlena looked at him with inquiring eyes, and John just responded with a smile.
“I’m sorry, um.. I’ll just talk to you tomorrow,” Marlena said, feeling very uncomfortable at the moment.
“Okay, bye Marlena, see you tomorrow.”
Little did they know what fate had in store for them; tomorrow wouldn’t be the next time they saw each other…
Page 5 of 23
As Marlena was heading to her dorm from John’s office, the whole time all she could think about was that hug.
Why would he pull away from me? Maybe he hates me, I’m sure thats it. She decided to put any thoughts that included John into the back of her mind. Instead, she tried to focus on what she was doing tonight. Since Roman had been an asshole, she decided she wanted to have a girls night out. She made it back to her dorm pretty quickly and called Maggie. She dialed, and Maggie answered.
“Maggie, it’s Marlena.”
“How are you Marlena?”
“Just great, how about you?”
“I’m good, have you heard the new gossip about Kristen and some teacher?”
“No, and I really don’t care. I hate her. Say, what’re you doing tonight?”
“I’m not sure, what about you?”
“Well, Maggie, I was thinking we should have a girls night out.
Any ideas in mind?” Marlena knew Maggie would know the hottest places to go because of her infamous gossiping.
“Oooh! I have the perfect place in mind. Theres a new club, it’s called Club Tahiti, and it’s one of those foam clubs.”
“Sounds good Maggie. Come to my dorm at about 8, and we can all head there together.”
“Okay, Bye Marlena.”
Marlena then called Jennifer, Hope, and Kate. They all arrived at her dorm around 8, touched up their makeup and headed off to Club Tahiti.
John in the meantime was talking to his friend Jack Deveraux, who was an English Professor.
“So Jack, how was the first day of classes?”
“Well,” Jack replied, “English is never as fun as Sex Ed, but it wasn’t that bad. I just wish I knew some students that weren’t all geeks.”
John laughed at that comment. “Come to my class, I have a ton of gorgeous women who want to learn more about sex.”
“Oh, any gorgeous ones in particular?” Jack asked.
“Well, there’s this one girl, Marlena. She’s perfect. I ran into her a few times today, and each time we touch or speak, I feel the chemistry and see the sparks fly.”
“John, be careful, she’s your student…”
“I know, Jack, and thats my problem, today she and I talked for a while, and when she left I hugged her, but this connection was so great I had to pull away. I’m scared because I’m really starting to like her.”
“Okay,” Jack started, “I have an idea. To get your mind off Marlena, lets go out and have some fun.”
“Uh…alright I guess.” John replied. “Where are we going?”
“To this new place..its called Club Tahiti..”
Page 6 of 23
The girls were all dressed to kill, but Marlena was to die for. She had on a tight black mini skirt, and a pink backless halter top. She had on ‘CFM shoes’ which made her long legs even longer. The girls walked into the club and immediately heard some “hey baby” type of comments. Kate disappeared into the crowd, so Marlena, Maggie, Jennifer and Hope were left to hang out.
“I want a stinger!” Marlena yelled.
“Coming right up” said the bartender “This ones on the house.”
Marlena had her stinger and started getting a bit tipsy, and the other girls had their rounds.
“Lets go dance!” Maggie yelled to the others over the music.
“Okay, lets go!” Hope responded.
The four girls headed out to the dance floor and started dancing next to each other at first. Slowly Maggie disappeared into the crowd just as Kate had. A man who looked about the same age as John walked up behind Jennifer and started dancing with her.
Marlena and Hope were dancing together, when Bo walked right up behind Hope.
“Bo, is Roman here with you?” Marlena asked.
“Um..yeah..he’s around here somewhere.”
“Okay, I’ll leave you two alone.” Marlena said as Bo and Hope disappeared into a corner.
Marlena decided she’d be just fine on her own. As she was walking off she felt two strong arms grab her around her stomach. It must be Roman, she figured. The person pulled Marlena into them, and started to dance with her.
Marlena felt amazingly comfortable, but she figured since it was Roman she should feel that way. But it still had her a little worried that she had never really felt this way with Roman before. She was transported into another world just swaying to the music with him. She felt like it was just the two of them in their own private room with their own band playing especially for them. She felt him place his hand on her thigh, but it felt different. When Roman touched her, her skin crawled. The second he touched her this time she felt on fire. This small little touch made her emotions explode, and she was more turned on than ever.
Slowly his hand started caressing her thigh, making its way up towards the hem of her skirt. She decided to grind into him a bit more to see his reaction. She heard him let out a soft moan, and his hand continued with it’s journey. She snaked her arm around his neck to get closer; she wanted to be as close as possible to him. He started to kiss her neck, and she leaned her head to the side to give him better access. His hand finally made it to the hem of her underwear, and she was more than ready. She was abruptly taken out of her world when she heard a strangely familiar voice asking:
“What the hell is going on here?!”….
Page 7 of 23
Marlena, whose eyes were still closed from when she was dancing, silently wished that she had misunderstood the voice, and that this was all happening in her head.
“Well, are you going to tell me what the hell is going on here?!” Roman shouted.
Marlena opened her eyes and faced her boyfriend.
“I’m sorry, it was a girls night out…” She started
“Don’t give me that, you know exactly what you’re doing, and if I wasn’t here to stop whatever was happening, you would have cheated on me.”
“Roman, you know thats not true, I love you! We’ve been together forever, please just listen to me?”
“Fine,” Roman said while tapping his foot. “I’m waiting for some sort of stupid excuse.”
“Here goes nothing,” Marlena muttered under her breath. “Okay, we, as in the girls, decided that we wanted to have some fun. We found out this new club was open, so we decided to come and check it out. Kate disappeared right away, and then Jennifer disappeared as well, and then we ran into Bo. I asked him if you were here and he said yes. As I was walking off to go find you someone grabbed me from behind and I started to dance with him, thinking it was you! Please, you have to believe me.”
“How could you even tell me that crap?!” Roman asked. “You expect me to believe that dumb excuse, and forgive you for
everything?”
“Roman, what do you mean by everything?!”
“Marlena, I saw you with him. I saw how you were moving, I saw how into it you were. And you say its all because you think he was actually me?! I know you’re blonde, but I thought you had a brain!”
At that comment Marlena started to cry. The mysterious man put his hand on Marlena’s shoulder, and she immediately wanted to shove it off. But, oddly enough, it felt very comforting. It was as if he was saying that everything would be okay. Roman saw this gesture and immediately started throwing out more accusations.
“Please, Roman, I don’t know how many times I can ask for forgiveness. What can I say, what can I do, to prove to you that I love you and only you?!” Marlena said, desperate for Roman to understand where she was coming from.
“Do you wanna know what? We’re completely through. This morning you wouldn’t kiss me, and then threw some fit about not being my girlfriend, and now this. Marlena I don’t know what to do anymore. I came here looking forward to having a good time with you and Bo, and Hope, and instead I find you with someone else. What am I supposed to think?”
“But Roman,” Marlena pleaded. “Absolutely Nothing happened!””Yeah, only because I was here to stop it. Whatever… our break up is all your fault, tonight is all your fault.”
“Actually,” said the man behind Marlena, “I will take all the blame. Her story is true, I came up behind her. She still probably has no idea who I am.”
Hearing his voice gave Marlena butterflies in her stomach, and she turned around to face the one and only Professor Black.
Page 8 of 23
“Jo…John?!” Marlena’s face turned as pale as a ghost.
“Listen, Marlena, I’m sorry,” he replied.
“It’s not your fault..I have to go.” And with that she ran out of the club.
“Oh just let the skank go,” Roman said.
“Roman, how many times do I have to tell you its my fault? GO after her..she’s a great catch, you don’t want to lose her!”
“Well, John, I don’t care any more, I don’t want her. She’s obviously been cheating on me.”
John was getting tired of Roman’s comments so he wound up and planted his fist into Roman’s already messed up face.
Roman stumbled back and fell onto a table. He just lay there as John went after Marlena.
Marlena was outside thinking about the past days events. She immediately felt the connection with John when she ran into him in the hallway, and again when they talked in his office, but tonight was too much. His hands on her had sent her to another place, where everything was perfect. She yearned to have his hands all over her, and it would have been so if Roman hadn’t shown up. As much as she loved Roman she felt such a strong connection to John that it scared her. She would have never questioned anything that Roman had done or said, or how he treated her, until John showed up.
John left the club and immediately went searching for Marlena. He finally found her curled up in a ball on a bench, tears streaming down her face. She didn’t notice him coming, so when he sat down she jumped a bit.
“Marlena, listen, I’m really sorry”
“John, you have nothing to be sorry about.”
“Yes I do, I took advantage of the situation, and I just put you in a hell of a mess.”
She started crying harder and John put his arm around her.”Shhhh..please don’t cry. I promise everything will work out for the best.” John said trying to calm her down.
“John, I’m not crying because of what happened with Roman; lately we’ve been growing apart anyway – I’m worried about you.”
“What do you mean?” John asked.
“John, I don’t even know how to explain it, it’s just this feeling I get when I’m with you..”
“So you’ve felt it too?”
That question threw Marlena for a loop. She never expected John to feel the same way that she did.
“Listen Marlena, you’re my student, so there’s really nothing we can do, and right now were stuck with that.”
“I don’t know if I can sit back and do nothing about this,” Marlena responded.
“But that’s the way it has to be.”
John felt so bad he couldn’t even look into her eyes. He knew that the second he did, he would be lost forever. She picked up on his hesitation and acted upon it.
“John, look at me.”
John just looked at his shoes, trying his hardest not to hurt her more. “Please, John, thats all I ask. At least look at me. Or now am I too terrible for you to even look at or acknowledge. I know I’ve messed up terribly and maybe I deserve this-” Marlena started on one of her emotional tangents. “Gosh, what have I done? I’m a terrible person. I cheated on my boyfriend… well not literally… but I don’t love him, and I let him think that I did. John, maybe you should leave. Everyone I talk to seems to get hurt by me.”
Marlena started crying, letting the tears fall freely. Finally, John had the courage to look at Marlena, and when he did, he did the only thing he could think of. He tipped her chin up, leaned into her and gave her a slow passionate kiss.
Page 9 of 23
Marlena felt a rush of emotions, but she didn’t care. John’s lips felt perfect, as if they were made for hers.
Slowly John pulled away, and he just looked Marlena in the eyes..”I’m…I’m sorry,” John started. “I shouldn’t have done that, I’m taking advantage-“
Anything else John was going to say was cut off by Marlena leaning in and kissing him again.
John thought of all the ways they were breaking the rules right now, but he didn’t care. All he thought about was how amazing this kiss was between him and Marlena. He didn’t know how much more he could take, he didn’t want things to get out of hand, and they were out in public.
“Oh screw it” he thought to himself.
Marlena was too wrapped up in the kiss to care who saw them, and she slowly climbed atop John’s lap. She started grinding her hips against him, and that was the breaking point for John.
“Marlena, unless you want me to ravage you right here on this bench, I think you should stop.”
Marlena laughed, “Well, maybe I want you to…”
John gave her a cute little wink.
“Okay…” she continued. “Maybe we shouldn’t be so out in the open.”
John realized that they really shouldn’t be so out in the open, he didn’t want her to get in trouble with the school.
“Marlena, we can’t do this.”
“Why can’t we John? I know how you feel about me, and you know how I feel about you. It’s a perfect fit”
“I know, and I agree, but it’s against the school rules”
“The rules were made to be broken…” Marlena started
“But we have no choice, we can’t act upon our feelings anymore. Look where that almost got us tonight.”
Marlena was very hurt, this was the second man that rejected her tonight. She felt tears well up in her eyes, and turned her head so John wouldn’t see.
“Marlena, please don’t be sad.”
“John, how can I not be sad, you and Roman both have turned me down in the same night.”
“I know, and that was my fault,” John said, “but you and Roman will work things out, I know you will.”
“John, I don’t want to work things out with Roman. I never felt like this with Roman. Ever.”
“I’m sorry…I’m just sorry.” John said, and with that he left, looking back at Marlena every few steps he took.
Marlena curled up in a ball and started to cry. How was this happening to her? John had brought out emotions that she never knew she had. She didn’t want Roman any more, she never really did anyway. She wanted John.
John, she said to herself, I hope soon you’ll realize we can’t avoid each other, we’ll always be drawn to each other, and I have just the plan to speed up the process.
Page 10 of 23
Marlena awoke wishing she had gotten more sleep. When she had actually slept, all she did was dream about John.
Thats fine, she thought to herself, today my plan goes into action.She rolled over and looked at the clock which read 1:10.Wow, I must have slept later than I thought.
She didn’t have class for a while, so she decided to lay in bed, relax, and watch some t.v. She had no idea what was on at this time, but decided to channel surf. After looking through about 5 stations, she stopped on one with a gorgeous man saying something to a beautiful woman about a girl named Victoria.
10 minutes later into the show, she figured the hot mans name was Drake, and he was in love with the beautiful woman Deidre, but he was married to Victoria.
How sad is this? I’m watching a cheesy soap opera and actually enjoying it!
She slowly got out of bed, turned off the TV and headed to the kitchen. She started looking through her pantry for something she could eat for lunch, and finally decided on pasta. Actually, pasta was the only thing she really could make. While the pasta was cooking she decided to start to put her plan into action.
She headed back into her bedroom and started sorting through her closet. Hmm…what outfit could John not resist?
She started sorting through her skirts, and ended up landing on the shortest khaki one she owned.
Now for a top, she thought to herself. She started looking through some of her shirts and picked out a tight black v-neck shirt.
This will be perfect! She thought to herself. She smiled at the thought of how John would react when she walked into class like this.
Marlena went back and checked on her pasta, which conveniently she had burned. She just laughed it off, and decided while that was cooling she should take a shower.
Marlena took the fastest shower of her life because she wanted to be completely ready for today. She ate her burned pasta, which wasn’t that terrible, and headed toward her room. On the way something caught her eye, she had a message on her answering machine. She walked over and hit the play button and didn’t know what to expect.
“Marlena, listen, I’m really sorry about last night. I don’t know what I was thinking. I can’t go on without you. Please, I really mean this, we have so much chemistry, so much potential. I really hope you forgive me…please…”
Page 11 of 23
Marlena froze. Roman’s voice continued to flow throughout her place, talking stupid nonsense that Marlena didn’t have time to listen to. She hit the delete button before the message even finished.
Now why couldn’t John call and tell me that? she thought to herself. Oh well, he will after todays lesson.
Marlena blow dried and straightened her hair, fixed up her makeup, and then got dressed. She gathered all her books and left her room.
As she was walking on the campus she got a lot of whistles and compliments, so she figured her plan must work on John. She worked her way to the classroom and before she walked in she let out a huge breath.
Here goes nothing.
Marlena walked into the room and saw Kristen and the girls talking. They saw her and immediately stopped. John was sitting at his desk, reading todays newspaper, not paying any attention to who walked in.
John had a feeling Marlena had waked in the room, he could just sense her presence. He smelled the air which had a scent of lilacs and honeysuckle, and he knew for sure that she was there. He didn’t want to look up, he couldn’t look up. Not after last night at
least. He had gone home, taken a cold shower, and tried to get to sleep. When he finally had fallen asleep, all he could do was dream about Marlena. Which lead him to get up and take another cold shower. This morning all he could think was that thank god
cold water never runs out.
Marlena slowly walked to her seat, a little disappointed that John hadn’t even bothered to look up from his work to at least say hi to her. Whatever, she thought, his loss.
Marlena sat down in the seat she had taken the day before, and right away Kristen started being her usual bitchy self.
“Dressed up a bit are we, Marlena?” Kristen asked. “Does someone have a crush on the teacher?”
“No Kristen, don’t worry he’s all yours.” Marlena replied, though she was lying through her teeth.
“Good…thats what I thought”
John finally looked up once Marlena had taken her seat. She was busy talking, or fighting with Kristen.
Wow, is she trying to drive me crazy? John thought to himself. No one should be allowed to look that hot to go to sex ed. John was so wrapped up in thoughts and fantasies of Marlena, that he didn’t realize she was looking at him.
Marlena smiled, knowing the effect she was having on John. The bell rang and John finally shook himself out of his daydream. Marlena quickly shifted her attention to something else, so that John wouldn’t catch her staring.
“Welcome back class,” John said as he walked toward his desk. He held up a book for the class to see and said, “We start todays lesson straight out of the Karma Sutra.”
Page 12 of 23
Marlena’s jaw dropped. Did he just say we’re learning from the Karma Sutra? she thought to herself. Wow, fate must be on my side, this is perfect for my plan!
Once all the murmuring died down in the classroom, John started his little lecture.
“Okay, before this even gets started, this is a class, not a party. Anything that happens here is for research only. No emotions or passion is involved. Does everyone understand?”
“Yes John,” they all replied.
“Okay, with that said,” John started, “I need a volunteer for today’s lecture.
Most of the girls were very shy, the only two that raised their hands were Kristen and Marlena.
Gosh, John thought to himself, What have I gotten myself into? I can’t stand Kristen, but if I get into any of those positions with Marlena, who knows what kind of show the class is going to get.
Marlena looked around and saw that the only other person with her hand up was Kristen. She was happy because she already knew how John felt about Kristen, so John had to pick her.
“Kristen, if you would come up here and volunteer?” John said looking at the ground.
Marlena was crushed. Despite the fact it was a small deal,
Marlena was still hurt that John had picked Kristen over her. It was yet another man who had picked Kristen over Marlena, and another man who had hurt Marlena.
“Told ya I’d get him,” Kristen whispered to Marlena as she walked down the steps to the front of the room.
“Okay Kristen, I’m gonna get on my back.” John started, and the class let out a laugh. “We’ll start with one random position – something nice that everyone has heard of. Woman on top. So Kristen if you would…”
“Gladly,” Kristen replied.
Marlena tuned out for the rest of the discussion. She didn’t want to hear anything about this. Kristen was on top of John, that was all she needed to know. She started doodling on her notebook doing anything to not pay attention. She looked up for a second, saw the same horrendous sight, and went back to drawing.
She must have been trying hard to not pay attention because the next thing she knew the bell was ringing. Marlena closed up her things as fast as she could; all she wanted to do was get out of the classroom and away from John.
As Marlena was walking down the steps she heard that familiar voice she loved to hear.
“Marlena…if you could..I’d like to see you for a few minutes in my office?..”
Page 13 of 23
“Um…I kinda have to be somewhere” Marlena said to John.
“Please, Marlena just come talk with me in my office?”
“Alright, I guess, but please make it quick.”
Marlena was still pretty pissed at how John had picked Kristen over her, so she really wasn’t in the mood for talking, or for any dumb excuses. John was walking to the office in front of her, so she couldn’t help but notice his gorgeous ass. But that wasn’t her
fault.
Once they made it inside the office, John asked Marlena to close the door. She did so, and turned back around to talk to John, but he was already right by her. He pushed her against the door and layed a hard, commanding kiss on her.
He pulled away and Marlena just stared in shock.
“Uh… John…”
John couldn’t help himself again, and this time went in for a passionate kiss. As lips touched lips, they both felt the electricity between them. Tongues started to collide, and Marlena unconsciously ground into him. John groaned into her mouth, and they finally both pulled away from each other.
“Okay, now can I explain?” John asked.
“Uh…” Marlena couldn’t even think; she was still on cloud nine.
Johns thoughts were also jumbled, but he started anyway. “I know you’re probably mad at me because of today when I picked Kristen, but you need to know why I did it.”
Marlena just stood silently waiting for an answer.
“Okay, Marlena first off you know that I cannot resist you. As much as I try, it doesn’t work. Today you look gorgeous, and I’m sure you did that purposely to drive me crazy, and let me tell you its working.” Marlena blushed at that comment, nodded, and waited for him to continue.
“See, I love how you blush, and thats just one of those amazing things about you. But I’m getting off track… so you and Kristen were the only ones whose hands were up today, and you know how much I can’t stand Kristen. But, Marlena, think about what
could have happened if you had gotten on top of me… in what you were wearing… and knowing how I feel about you. The entire class would have gotten a lovely little show, and we both would have gotten into trouble. Like I said, I can’t resist you, and I’m pretty sure if I started something, you would forget the world around us, so I had to pick Kristen.”
Marlena thought a little while and decided it was a plausible answer, although she did have a few questions for him.”Okay, I guess I can live with that answer, but why didn’t you look up at me today when I came in the room?” She asked.
“This is going to sound weird, but I can sense you, and I knew you were there, and I knew if I looked up and saw you before class started, that for the entire class I’d be talking about sex, but thinking about having it with you.”
Marlena was surprised with such an honest answer. It was also very blunt. So in return she asked a blunt and honest question.
“John, do you want me?”
John just started blankly, he couldn’t believe she just asked that question. When he didn’t reply, she continued.
“John, you know how much I want you, and I do think that you want me, but you continue to tell me different things. First you tell me we can’t see each other, we can’t talk, we can’t do anything… then you tell me about how you wouldn’t be able to
resist me, have me pinned up against your door, and are kissing me like there’s no tomorrow. What is going on?”
John yet again didn’t answer, but instead walked over to his desk and started organizing papers.
“Okay, I see you’re not going to answer me, so I guess I’m just going to leave.” Marlena said as she started walking to the door.
“Wait,” John replied, “Please, stay, I do want you, very badly.”
Marlena turned around, and looked at John with questioning eyes. “Marlena, really I’m sorry, I was busy doing something else that I’m sure you’ll find much more entertaining.”
John let out an evil grin and looked towards the desk. Marlena finally caught on and smiled back at John.
“Would you do the honors?” John asked.
“Gladly” Marlena replied as she walked to the desk and proceeded to swipe her hands across it sending all the papers John had just organized to the floor.
Page 14 of 23
Once the papers were all on the floor, Marlena slowly sauntered over to John. She gave him a sly little smile, grabbed him by the tie, and pulled him into a fiery kiss. Passions were rising, as was John, and Marlena could tell. She ground into him, and he let out
a moan into her mouth. Slowly they worked their way back towards the desk, and Marlena climbed on, making sure not to break their kiss.
John held the back of her head, and laid her down on the desk. She grabbed his shoulders and pulled him right on top of her. John wanted to savor every moment… to go slow… but Marlena had a different idea. She wanted his shirt off, and now! She ripped his shirt off and watched as buttons flew everywhere. She just stared for a minute; he was built like a greek god. She ran her hand down his chisled abs, and smiled to herself, I’m finally getting what I want.
John was still trying to go slow, but once Marlena ripped off his shirt, he felt himself losing control. He watched her as she studied his body in awe, and realized just how innocent she looked at that minute. I can’t do this, he thought to himself. She’s my student, she is so young and innocent, what if she’s never done this before? I cannot do this.
Marlena saw John’s internal struggle, and decided to help out a bit. She grabbed his hands and placed them on the folds of her shirt. John snapped out of his confusion and realized what she wanted him to do.
“Marlena, we can’t do this.”
“Yes we can John, I want to, I need you.” She replied.
“Marlena, you are so young, so innocent, I’m pretty sure you’re a virgin, I want you to save this for someone special.”
“You’re right John, I am a virgin, and I wanted to save this for someone special, and that someone special is you. I feel something that I’ve never felt with anyone else when I’m with you. I know you feel it too, you can’t deny it…”
“I don’t know-” John started, but was cut off when Marlena pulled him into a searing, passionate kiss.
“Can you still deny it?” Marlena asked.
“No, I can’t,” John replied.
“Okay, then listen to me, John, I want you, more than I have ever wanted anyone. I want this to happen.”
“But it isn’t how it should be for your first time. There should be dinner, candlelight, music, it shouldn’t be a little fling on the desk… although this is pretty hot, if I say so myself.”
“John, I don’t care, we could do this in the middle of nowhere, and I wouldn’t care. All I want is for it to be with you. Plus,” she winked, “we can always do the dinner and candlelight another time.” He laughed, and she smiled knowing that she had convinced him.
John pulled her into another kiss just to show how much he wanted her. She could feel him getting bigger through his pants, which made her want him even more.
“Now, John, since we’ve gotten all that out of the way, please, we can take it slow another time, just not today?” Marlena begged.
John didn’t need to reply. He grabbed her shirt and pulled it over her head. Thank god she’s wearing a skirt, John thought to himself.
John ran his hand up her leg, and he felt her start to twitch in anticipation. He didn’t want to waste time taking off her skirt or panties, so he just pushed them to the side and started rubbing her center. She immediately started moaning, which he silenced with
another kiss. He slid two fingers into her, and got into a perfect rhythm. She started bucking into his hand, and bit onto his shoulder to try and stop her moans. It felt so good to her; shewasn’t used to being touched so intimately. She was getting close, and John could tell. Marlena grabbed John and pulled him into a kiss as the waves took over her body.
John removed his fingers, and Marlena immediately felt empty. She started working on John’s jeans. She wanted them off. John in the meantime was busy kissing her neck. He found the exact spot she loved, and she had to bite her lip to keep from moaning too loudly. His hand worked its way to her back where he unclasped her bra. He slid the bra off her and just gazed in awe. She was beautiful, perfect to him.
Marlena finally got his jeans off, and then slid his boxers off. John finished undressing Marlena, and for the first time ever, he was nervous. He wanted to please her more than anyone would ever please her, since this was her first time.He looked Marlena in the eyes, and she nodded, ready and waiting for John. He slowly slid in her, and she closed her eyes. It was a feeling she had never felt before, an extreme amount of pleasure, but a bit of pain. John was pretty big after all.
John just waited, he wanted to make sure she was okay. Once she had adjusted, she started rocking her hips. It started at a slow erotic pace, long, deep, thrusts, with passionate kisses in between.
Once both of them started to get closer, John picked up the pace. Skin on skin contact was becoming more heated. He pulled out of her almost completely, and then would thrust back into her. She started moaning, every time he did that she felt as if she would split in two from pleasure. She bit down on his shoulder as she had done before to help muffle some of the moans. To John, her biting down on his shoulder was the sweetest pain he could take. It turned him on even more, and he started to go as deep as he could. He felt Marlena reach her peak, and as the waves rippled through her, it brought John to his.
As they both lay on top of the desk, John couldn’t help but feel amazing. That might have been her first, but it was the best he’d ever had. He wondered how she felt about it, and got his answer sooner than he expected. She rolled over and gave him a wicked smile and asked..
“Ready for round two…?”
Page 15 of 23
What?! Kristen thought to herself. Round two?!
Miss DiMera had thought something was suspicious the entire day. First, during class, she was on top of John, enticing him, flirting with him, grinding herself into him, and she gained no response back. John’s mind seemed to be somewhere else…maybe he was fantasizing about her and just couldn’t show it in the middle of class. The next nteresting part of the day was the whole Marlena factor. Marlena hadn’t uttered one word during class, she wasn’t paying attention which was very unlike the Miss Goody Two Shoes. And what she had thought to be the weirdest part of the day was when John asked Marlena to stay after class.
Kristen couldn’t take the suspense of not knowing what they were talking about, so she decided to stay after class and stand by the door to listen. The very first thing she heard was a large thud against the door. I wonder what that was, she thought to herself.
Of course the thud was followed by a little bit of conversation, which consisted of Marlena asking John if he wanted her, and then a long silence. She heard someone walking extremely close to the door and thought she had been caught, but John must have said something that stopped Marlena.
The next few minutes were silent, and Kristen wondered what was going on inside, and soon she heard the room fill with moans. She couldn’t take it anymore. If what she thought was going on inside that classroom, something had to be done. Marlena could not, no, she would not have John.
“Ready for round two?” She heard Marlena ask.
Kristen had to do something about it. Kristen peered out the door into the hallways, and saw the perfect person to help her with her scheme: Dean Williams.
“Hello Dean Williams,” Kristen said.
“Hi Kristen, how are you today?” He asked.
“Actually, I’d be much better if I could talk to Professor Black. I think he’s in his office with a student, but I’m not sure. I need some help before finals, is there any possible way maybe you could see if he’s in his office? I know if you asked for him he might be able to untangle himself from whatever he’s doing.”
“Sure, Kristen, anything for you.” Kirsten smiled, completely satisfied with her work. She had this entire school wrapped around her finger, well almost this entire school. She didn’t have John, and that’s the only person that really mattered to her. Of course,
she didn’t necessarily want John wrapped around her finger…
“Just follow me, Ms. DiMera.” Dean Williams said as he started heading out to John’s office.
This is it! Kristen thought, Marlena will get in trouble, maybe kicked out of the school, and John will be mine!
And with that Dean Williams reached for the door knob and twisted it..
Page 16 of 23
“Hmm…It’s locked” Dean Williams told Kristen.
Inside the room, John and Marlena were just getting started again.
“John, I think someone’s trying to come in!” Marlena whispered frantically. “What are we gonna do?!”
John looked at Marlena’s worried face and thought she couldn’t possibly look cuter at the moment. She was all stressed out… not to say he wasn’t, but he was too busy thinking about all the pleasure he’d just gotten. She was the picture of perfection; her lips were swollen from all their kisses, her hair was tattered, her cheeks were flushed, and her hazel eyes glowing, and she looked just amazing.
“Okay,” John started, “This is one thing I hope I never have to say again…go get dressed.”
*Knock Knock* Dean Williams rapped on the door. “John, it’s Williams. What are you doing in there?! Open up! It’s important.”
“Oh god, Oh god, Oh god, John what are we going to do?! I don’t think the situation could get any worse!” Marlena continued to stress.
“John, I’m here with a student of yours, Kristen DiMera, and we all need to sit down and talk.” The Dean continued.
“Okay, I think it just got worse. John, what if someone knows about us?! What if someone heard? What if he heard us?!”
“Marlena, it’s okay, just calm down.” John started to say, as he began dressing, “Like I said, go get dressed. Once you’re finished getting dressed, I’ll go out in the hall and distract Dean Williams. Hopefully you can sneak out unnoticed.”
“Alright that sounds good,” Marlena said searching around his office for her underwear. “John, have you seen my underwear?!”
John smiled and patted his pocket. “Now it gives you a reason to come see me again outside of class.” He walked over and pecked her on the lips. “So when can I see you again?”
“Well, Professor, I might need some extra tutoring because we do have that final coming up. Hopefully you can tell me what I need to study, with you being the professor and all..”
“Oh,” John said, “I think we will need to go over everything we’ve learned thus far, including all of the positions and pleasure spots.”
“Sounds good. So when are you free?”
“Whenever you are babe.” John replied.
“Okay, well what about tonight?”
John smiled, “You my dear, think just like I do. Come by my place tonight around 8. I live across the street from the University at 202 Salem Drive. I’m apartment number 4 on the top floor. The penthouse,” he winked.
“Alright, I’ll see you then,” Marlena said and started towards the door.
Before she made it John grabbed her arm and gave her another quick kiss.
“Is that all you’ve got sailor?”
“You asked for it!” John said, and then proceeded to pull Marlena into a fiery kiss that left both of them breathless.
“Much better,” Marlena whispered. “Now go so I can get out of here and start to miss you!”
John smiled, opened the door, and went to work his magic…
Page 17 of 23
“Uh…Hi Dean Williams. How are you today?” John asked, casually strolling towards his desk in the lecture room.
No! Kristen thought to herself. We didn’t catch them.
“Actually John,” the Dean began, “I’d be better if I knew every single student of yours was satisfied. And Miss DiMera here, doesn’t seem to be satisfied with your student teacher relationship. I know she needs extra help studying, and she had come to your office today to see if you could help, but the door was locked. What exactly were you doing in there anyway?”
“Actually,” John replied, “I was thinking about how to fix what you just spoke about. I was thinking how to improve my student teacher relationships.” And practicing it too, he thought to himself. He looked over the Dean’s shoulder and saw Marlena sneaking out of the room. He smiled to himself, and went back to his conversation with the Dean.
“Well, John, is there any way that you can help Miss DiMera here?” Williams asked.
“Actually, I have the perfect idea. I think Kristen should be tutored.”
“What a wonderful idea!” Kristen squealed. “It was exactly what I was thinking! Oh I’m so excited!”
“Well, yes, Kristen, I think you getting tutoring from Josh would be the perfect idea!” John said.
“Josh?!”
“Yes, Josh, he’s by far one of the brightest students in my class..” John told both Kristen and Williams.
“Well, John, Kristen, I think it’s an amazing idea.” Dean Williams replied, “and now that its all settled I must be going.” And with that Dean Williams excused himself from the room.
“John, why would you even consider me studying with Josh?!” Kristen asked.
“Kristen, I told you why just now; he’s the smartest student in the class, I’m sure he’s willing to help, and I’m sure you’d gain the most from him.”
“But why can’t I study with you?” Kristen whined. “I think I would gain the most getting tutored by you.”
“Kristen, I don’t tutor students. I teach them during class, but after class I’m a free man.”
“Well,” Kristen replied huskily, “if you are a free man after class, and I’m a free woman, maybe we should get together sometime.”
“Kristen, I’m your teacher!”
“That shouldn’t stop us,” she replied as she inched closer to John. “I don’t see how that relationship could affect the one we should be having.”
“And what type of relationship is that, Kristen?” John asked, extremely uncomfortable by their close, almost non-existent, distance from one another.
“A sexual one,” she replied before she pulled him down, and her lips crashed upon his.
Page 18 of 23
John felt Kristen’s tongue probing to gain access to his mouth. He had to admit it was the most disgusting thing he’d ever experienced. He pushed her off as hard as he could, but her leech like arms were wrapped so tight around his neck he could barely move her.
“KRISTEN! What are you doing?!” He yelled.
“John, you know we both want it. Don’t deny it.” Kristen pulled him down attempting to steal another kiss. John turned his head and she conveniently kissed his ear.
“Kristen, you are my student. I don’t want this. And we cannot have a ‘sexual’ relationship!”
“But John,” Kristen said dejectedly, “We are compatible. I mean, can you tell me you felt absolutely nothing in that kiss?”
“I felt nothing”
“Can you look me in the eyes and say you felt nothing?” Kristen asked.
John looked straight into her eyes and said “I felt nothing.”
“Alright then,” Kristen started heading towards the door. “John, I know you will come to your senses soon and realize that you do want me. And let me tell you, when you do, I might not be available. But you will always be my first choice. See you in class tomorrow John!”
And with that she left, John standing there still in complete shock about what had happened. Instead of focusing on that though, he decided to think about tonight.
Ah my sweet Marlena, I can’t wait for tonight. Finally everything in my life seems perfect. I have you with me, and while for now we may need to keep it secret, I don’t care. With you I feel complete.
John decided he had some arrangements to make, so grabbed his coat and went on his way.
Marlena was busy at home preparing for tonight. She had taken a long, hot shower, using that lilac soap John had said he had smelled on her. She kept fantasizing about John’s hands roaming her body, pleasing her, teasing her, and she smiled thinking about the day so far. What had started out as a horrendous day turned out to be one of the best days of her life.
Marlena started humming to herself as she prepared yet another pot of pasta. She hoped John could cook, because she had been living off pasta and sandwiches ever since she started college. Marlena put the pot on the oven and started boiling the water, and decided that she needed a little music. She was in too good of a mood to just sit there and do nothing. She flipped through her CD’s and found the exact one she wanted.
“Well, Miss Lauper, please serenade me.” She said to herself and laughed.
She walked back towards the oven and started dancing to the music.
I come home in the morning light
my mother says when you gonna live your life right
oh mother dear we’re not the fortunate ones
and girls they wanna have fun
oh girls just wanna have fun
Marlena started seriously dancing around the kitchen using the spoon to cook the pasta as a microphone. She sang horrendously off-key, but it didn’t matter to her. In reality she was just having fun.
The phone rings in the middle of the night
my father yells what you gonna do with your life
oh daddy dear you know you’re still number one
but girls they wanna have fun
oh girls just wanna have—
The pasta was starting to boil over, but she didn’t care. She was in too great of a mood. She slid across her kitchen floor swinging her wet hair everywhere, just goofing off. This is what life is all about, she thought to herself.
That’s all they really want
some fun
when the working day is done
girls– they wanna have fun
oh girls just wanna have fun
“The working day is done” Marlena said to herself. “And now I’m gonna have fun!”
She heard a loud banging over the music.
“Coming!” Marlena yelled over the music. She ran quickly to the stereo, turned off the music, ran to the stove, and turned that off as well. “I’ll be right there!”
Marlena ran to the door, stopped to take a breath, and opened the door.
“What on earth are you doing here?!”
Page 19 of 23
“Why whatever do you mean, Marlena?”
“I mean exactly what I said. What are you doing here Kristen?!”
“Marlena, I figured it was time for us to have a girl to girl talk.” She paused a moment. “Well, aren’t you gonna let me in or do I have to stand out here all day?”
Marlena stepped aside, saying nothing, and just waved Kristen in.
“You know Marlena, girls really do just wanna have fun. And let me tell you straight up, that’s all I want. But I want to have fun with John. I don’t know what you’ve done to make him so completely raptured with you, but I want him. And what I want, I get.”
“Kristen, I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Marlena feigned innocence. “There is nothing going on between me and John. Remember, today in class he picked you to do the positions with him.”
“Well, then why did he ask you to stay after class?”
“Because,” Marlena started, “He yelled at me for making a comment about him choosing you. That was it, nothing more, nothing less.”
For a moment Kristen was satisfied with that answer. It was a plausible answer; she could actually see Marlena making a jealous comment, and she hoped that John would stand up for her. But then she remembered everything she heard in his office.
“Marlena, why must you lie to me?! I know what you did in John’s office! I heard you two together. And let me tell you, you weren’t talking that much, and what you did say to each other was most definitely not about me!”
Marlena was shocked, but didn’t let it show. “Kristen, are you feeling okay? Have you had anything nasty to eat? Are you on drugs? Please, tell me what’s wrong so I can help you, so you stop throwing out these insane accusations!”
“Just stop lying to me! I told you already, I want John. I knowyou’ve ‘had him’, but I will get him. There is nothing you can do or say to stop me from having John!” Kristen yelled at the top of her lungs.
“Kristen, I want you to leave right now.” Marlena pointed towards the door.
“Fine, I will!” Kristen snapped back, “but let me just tell you, I’m sure you already know this, but John is an amazing kisser!” And with that she slammed the door.
Marlena dropped to her knees, confused, shocked, but most of all hurt. As much as she wanted to think there was some type of explanation to this mess, she couldn’t think of one that made sense. Her amazing mood had now been wrecked, and she wasn’t sure if she wanted to see John tonight. She set her head in her hands and let the tears fall. Kristen wanted John that bad, and she wasn’t lying when she said she’d do anything to get what she wanted.
Marlena suddenly had the best idea, so she went on her way and started to put her plan into action.
Page 20 of 23
“Screw Kristen” Marlena thought.
She turned the stereo back on and started singing again, and just as quickly as it had died, her good mood was back.
She danced over to her closet in her bedroom and started to pick out what she wanted to wear that night. She had absolutely no idea what look to go for. She decided that she wanted to look somewhat dressed up, but not like she was trying too hard; semi-casual. She chose a cute jean skirt and a lacy red halter top. She then had to pick out the most important part of her outfit: what went under the clothes. She tried to imagine what John would like as she rummaged through her underwear drawer. She decided on a very sexy red lace bra (to match her top of course) and underwear to match it.
Now that her outfit was picked out she needed to do her hair and her makeup. She sat at her vanity and started blow drying her hair; making sure it was perfect, though she knew by the end of the night it would be messed up. She put the finishing touches on her hair, just as the telephone rang.
“Hey” She answered.
“Hey babe, how have you been?”
“Roman, I thought I told you not to call me! I don’t want to talk to you. Remember, you broke up with me?”
“Yeah,” Roman started, “about that, I was so wrong. I’m so sorry babe. I’ve tried calling you, I’ve left you messages on your machine, I don’t know what more I can do.”
“That’s the thing Roman,” Marlena responded, “There is nothing left to do. We are finished. You ended it, and I’m keeping it ended!”
“Fine, have it your way. But I promise we will be back together.”
The next thing Roman heard in the phone was the dial tone.
Marlena felt relieved that she had told Roman off. She looked at the clock, which read 7:10, and decided she needed to get a move on with her makeup.
She applied her makeup carefully, and went to her room. She threw on her clothes, looked at herself in the mirror, and was pleasantly surprised at how well she had cleaned up. She ran and turned off the stereo, threw away the pasta she cooked since she had no time to eat it, checked herself again in the mirror, grabbed her keys, and headed out the door. She ran to the elevator, checked her watch and realized she really was running late, and opted for the stairs. Once she made it down the stairs, she got into her car and headed over to Johns.
Little did she know someone was watching her every move…
Page 21 of 23
John was extremely excited about tonight. He checked his watch, and realized it was 5 minutes to 8.
“I get to see Marlena in 5 minutes!” He smiled to himself.
He had dreamed about her all day, and looked forward to this night. Everything was in place and ready. He had called and arranged all his plans; everything was set to be perfect. Now she just needed to get here.
He thought about the entire confrontation with Kristen earlier today. He knew that she would stop at nothing to get him, but he would do everything in his power to stay with Marlena. While they might have to keep their relationship secret, as long as he was with her he was happy. In fact, he couldn’t remember when he’d be so happy in his entire life.
He thought about the difference between Kristen and Marlena. Marlena tasted amazing: her lips and tongue were sweet, and he dreamed of kissing them all day. Kristen tasted dirty, like she had been kissed before… many, many times.
John pushed all thoughts of Kristen out of his mind, and concentrated on Marlena, who should be getting to his place any moment…
Kristen, on the other hand, had decided that she wanted to spend the night inside. She had thought that somehow catching John and Marlena in the act would be a good idea, but then chose to not even bother right now. She was too tired, and today had been an emotional day. So she sat on her sofa in her dorm and had a glass of wine.
“Tonight is the last night of peace John and Marlena will ever have.” She said out loud, and let out an evil laugh.
Marlena sat outside in her car, taking a few deep breaths before she actually got out. She was nervous, yes, she was very nervous. She had been with other people, not necessarily like she had been with John, but she had never fallen this hard. She was almost frightened by the intensity of her want and need for John. She checked her makeup in the mirror, yet again, making sure she looked perfect. She got out of the car and walked up to the door, checked both ways to make sure no one was looking in her direction.
John heard the doorbell ring and ran to the door. He checked the peephole, saw it was his angel, and opened the door.
“Hello beautiful!” He said.
“Hi there, handsome.”
John leaned in to kiss her, but she pushed him away.
“John!” She shrieked, “not out here in the open!”
“Okay,” he replied, and then he pulled her inside and backed her up against the door. “I’ve missed you so much! I’ve missed this forehead,” he said and then kissed her forehead. “I’ve missed this nose!” he said and kissed that. “Mostly I’ve missed this delicious mouth!” And with that he leaned into her and gave her a passionate kiss. She opened her mouth to let his tongue in, and the kiss became even more fiery. Marlena ground herself into him, and she felt him already starting to get hard. Reluctantly, John pulled away. Marlena looked at him and frowned.
“We do want to get on with the night don’t we?” John smirked.
“I thought our night would consist of what we were just doing.” Marlena replied.
“No, pretty lady, we have a full night ahead of us.”
John grabbed her hand and led her out to the limo he had waiting for them.
“Yes, pretty lady,” said the man who was watching them, “you and John do have a full night ahead of you…as do I”
Page 22 of 23
As Marlena and John were sitting in the limo, Marlena couldn’t help but think how lucky she was.
“So John…where are we going?” Marlena asked innocently.
“I can’t tell you!” John replied laughing. Marlena gave John a cute little pout, which he couldn’t help but think was adorable. “Come here.” He patted the spot next to him, and Marlena slid over. She was completely taken in by his gorgeous eyes. She had noticed them before, but now they almost enticed her to make a move.
“Are you sure you don’t want to tell me?” Marlena winked at John.
“Oh, I’m pretty sure.”
Marlena smiled and climbed onto John’s lap. She leaned forward so he had a clear view down her top, and whispered into his ear.
“Are you positive you don’t want to tell me?” She then nibbled on his ear, and pulled back. He grabbed her neck and crushed his lips to hers, his tongue collided with hers, her hands weaved through his hair, and his arms pulled her body as close to his as it could get. They kissed for a while, and things started to heat up. Marlena started grinding atop of John, and she felt him getting aroused. Marlena moved to unbuckle John’s pants, but he stopped her.
“Pretty lady, if you keep this up we won’t be going anywhere but the back of this limo.”
She smiled and spoke. “Well…who care’s its not like we would be
missing anything.”
“Yes we would!” John responded quickly without thinking, “I had plans for us to go to…oh I see what you’re trying to do here!” Marlena giggled and John gave her another quick kiss.
“So John, did you miss me today?” Marlena asked.
“More than you could ever know.” He replied honestly. “Oh, well what do you know! We’re here!”
Marlena looked outside the window of the limo. “We’re at an airport? Why are we at an airport? Remember Mr. Black, with whatever we do tonight, I have this sex ed class tomorrow. And I cannot miss it. I mean I have this drop dead gorgeous professor, and I’d like to learn everything I can before finals.”
“Why Miss Evans, are you implying that I’d ever make you miss class?” He winked. “Well I guess that today is your lucky day because I also have plans tomorrow. I have to teach this sex ed class with this amazing girl in it. Every time I go to class it’s to see her beautiful face, and it’s just a perk that I get to teach her about sex, though she really doesn’t need any help.”
The limo driver opened the door, John climbed out, and then helped Marlena out.
“So John, why exactly are we at the airport?”
“Well…two reasons actually. Firstly, I wanted us to go somewhere where we can be together without having to hide it, at least for the night. Secondly, I wanted to make love to you at 35,000 feet…”

John grasped Marlena’s hand and escorted her into the plane.
“Damn it!” Roman said to himself. “This is not fair…why is she with that man?! And now they are getting onto the plane, so Iwon’t be able to see what happens.” Roman had followed Marlena from her place to John’s, and then from John’s to here. This was the end for him. At least for now.
Marlena stepped into the cabin and was shocked at what she saw.
“Oh John,” she gasped. “It’s beautiful!”
The plane was indeed a sight: lilacs, lilies, and roses were spread amongst the cabin in intricate vases; the lights were set dim so the candles cast shadows upon the walls. The plane itself smelt like the sweetest spring morning, but the mood was anything but sweet. Seductive would be the proper word.
“Remember earlier today I promised that we’d have dinner and do this properly?” John asked after a few minutes.
“Of course I remember that…I just didn’t think you would.”
Marlena smiled back. John loved that smile, and it was the most amazing smile he’d ever seen. He was sure that it could make anyone’s day.
“Why, pretty lady, why would you ever think I would forget something I said to you? If you must know, I remember everything you and I ever talk about because even the smallest things we talk about are important to me. Anything you say is always said with this passion that’s unbeatable.”
Marlena let out a little blush and then slowly sauntered over to John.
“So, this was your surprise wasn’t it?” She asked.
“Hmm…” John pretended to be deep in thought. “Well, this is part of it, but not really. This is just our mode of transportation to the bigger surprises.”
“And where would those bigger surprises be?”
“Now that, I cannot tell you!” John replied.
“So,” Marlena started, “you’re actually going to leave me in suspense this entire flight?!”
“Well, I actually had other plans for us. And, to be honest, I’m sure we can keep ourselves occupied…” John took a step closer to Marlena, “…for the time..” He took another step closer, “…we’re in the air…” And he sealed his proposition with a deep passionate kiss.
Marlena wanted to be closer to John, so she pulled him into her and wrapped her leg around him. She could feel John getting aroused and just loved the effect she had on him. John started to work on Marlena’s shirt, pulling it over her head and discarding it on the floor. Marlena then did the same, clawing at John’s shirt, wanting to feel skin on skin contact.
They continued to kiss and worked their way to the couch he had on the plane. John started working on the buckle of Marlena’s skirt while Marlena worked on John’s pants. Marlena suddenly stopped, leaving John lightheaded and confused.
“Is there something I’m missing here?” John asked Marlena. She
let out a giggle and pointed behind John. There stood the pilot of the plane, bright red and completely embarrassed.
“I’m…uh…sorry Mr. Black; I just came in here to tell you thatwe’re ready for take off.”
“It’s okay,” John said as he grabbed a blanket and threw it over Marlena’s half naked body. “That’ll be all. Thanks!”
The pilot turned around and hurried back into the cockpit.
John turned to Marlena and winked. “Now where were we…?”
