Chapter 30

After the Uber dropped me off, I jumped straight into the shower. I needed to clear my head and also needed some water running down my face and body in order to do that. I still couldn't believe what happened prior the day and the fact that Matias approached me like that, terribly shocked me.

As far as I was concerned, Matias knew that I never had slept with a guy before, while I was dating him. Not even he and I slept together and obviously he had this good girl image of me. He probably believed that I was the kind of girl that only would've had sex after I got married with the man I love. Clearly he got his own picture of me now.

Well he did apologize and 'admit' that he was wrong, meaning that maybe he did believe me. But what truly bothered me was what might've raised his suspicions about me and whatever threw it all away must've been really serious. Matias wouldn't have approached me like that if it wasn't a clear enough sign.

After I finished in the shower, I closed the tap. I stepped out and grabbed two towels, one to dry my hair and the other for my body. After that I wrapped one around myself and slowly walked to my room and like Tobit promised me, he was there waiting for me on my bed.

"Hey..." I smiled, or at least I tried to smile. I didn't know how to feel in that moment or if I should tell him what happened. I was even scared that he might think it was my fault Matias saw us together and that he'd stop wanting to see me because one student got suspicious and it'd risk him losing his job.

Though, to make things fair he did tell Hugo about us but that was, because Hugo was just as guilty as the both of us so he didn't exactly have anything to hold against us. So I was the one who messed up.

Tobit seemed to be in such a good mood and I didn't feel like ruining that.

"Hello there, Princess." He stood up and walked to me, holding my cheeks like he usually did before he left a gentle kiss on my lips. "Am I glad to see you."

"You made it..." I said. A part of me was happy that he made the effort to come here and I truly appreciated that.

"Yes. I couldn't miss spending time with you and I do enjoy waking up next to you in bed, so you'll be seeing a lot of me."

This time I did smile a genuine smile. I may have grown very attached to Tobit and the thought of losing him really didn't sit well with me. So I hesitated telling him about Matias, I even thought of brushing it off, which I knew for a fact wasn't going to be easy.

I saw on the bed was a box of pizza, on the night stand was a bucket of rum and Raiden ice cream and next to that was a bottle of wine. I guessed that dinner was already prepped for tonight.

"Let me get dressed, I'll see you downstairs when I'm done," I then told him, dismissing him in my own room. I noticed how his eyes were falling down my body and we both knew that if he stayed here any longer I'd never get myself dressed. So he had to leave now.

He sighed and then he went to grab the items before he walked to the door. "Next time, remember not to go in the shower without."

"I won't..." I beamed.

Once Tobit left the room, I went to my closet to get dressed. It was quick and easy fore to find something to wear and I chose a black top with some black leggings of mine. I wanted to wear something comfortable and less over the top and I also wanted to wear something that would drive Tobit mad. Yes, I didn't wear any bra or panties.

Arriving downstairs, I found him in the kitchen busy setting out some plates and placing three slices of pizza for each of us. I took the ice cream and left it in the freezer for us to eat later and then I used a hair tie to tie my damp hair into a messy bun.

"So how...did marking the tests go?" I then asked him, just to kill the silence brewing between before it got any awkward.

He turned his head to look at me and he smiled. "Okay, I suppose. You are aware that I shouldn't be discussing this with you, right?"

"Yea, I know." I nodded and then I moved behind him, wrapping my arms around his body. "But it's not like you and I obey the rules in anyway..."

"You do have a point." He placed his hand on top of mine. "But I also do not want to spend my time with you, talking about how badly your class failed. We could talk about anything other than that!"

"You're not exactly a very supportive professor."

"Not when only one student deserves my attention." He turned his head to look back at me.

I faced down to try and hide my blush. It did start to feel like I should tell him about what happened earlier, how Matias came up to me like that. I didn't want to keep this from him, especially when there was a chance that Matias might approach him too. I was even worried that Matias already had and that Tobit wasn't telling me because he didn't want me to worry.

He did start to notice that something was wrong. He gently took my arms off his waist and then he asked me, "Is something wrong? Is it something I said?"

I look at him and shook my head. "No. Actually yes. Actually, no you didn't say something wrong or anything like that...But there is something I need to talk to you about."

"Hmm, I'm listening." He stood leaning against the kitchen counter with his arms folded above his chest. I had to admit that he looked smoking hot, staring so attentively at me like that. It was one of things I started to love about him.

At first I didn't know where to begin, but I did have to start somewhere at some point. "Matias came at me earlier today, I think he might suspect us. Actually, he does suspect us..."

The look on his face turned into a frown. After that I didn't know what else to say. I wanted to apologize and tell him that I was sorry, I messed up and that this was my fault. If I hadn't been this close friends with Matias, then maybe none of this would've happened.

Tobit was also behaving, surprisingly, very relaxed. He just nodded his head and scratched his jaw. "And what did you tell him?"

"I denied everything. It did look like he believed me, but I'm not so sure."

"Then don't be so worried about it." He smiled again and wrapped his arms around me. That alone surprised me and it seemed that he was more than relaxed about it.

"Come on, let's go eat and watch something," He told me next as he kissed my forehead and grabbed the two plates.

I watched him walk out the kitchen and then grabbed the wine and two glasses along with me to the living room. I should've told him that it wasn't necessary for him to bring wine with him, since there was a whole cellar of wine in the basement, but at the time I also didn't have any of that in my mind. I was still trying to make sense out of this and clearly I was the only one being paranoid about it.

I sat down on the couch and then Tobit waited for me to put down the wine, before he handed me my pizza.

"Bonnie..." He then said and I looked at him. "I don't want your life to become complicated, I hope you know that."

I frowned. "Of course I do and you don't make anything in my life complicated. If anything, you make it less complicated and more...enjoyable."

His lips twitched a little and then he wrapped his arm around me. "I just can't stand the thought of losing you."

Hearing him say that made my heart skip a beat. For the first time someone openly admitted that they needed me in their life and I no longer felt like I was meant to be cast aside by all the people I cared about.
