4-Mr. Fun Sucker
Saturday
Saviera's POV
Zuri and I wake up around eleven o'clock and slowly get our day started. Zuri doesn't drink coffee because it's not good for your teeth, but I need one every morning. Instead, she makes a protein shake every morning and drinks that for breakfast. At least one of us is healthy. I love eating a big plate of crispy bacon and fried potatoes. Thankfully, Zuri has the best products for our teeth and is so adamant about having a teeth cleaning and whitening appointment every six months. She keeps our smiles on point.
"You wanna go shopping before you leave for work?" Zuri asks.
"Yeah, I need a few new outfits anyway. We should plan a vacation for the summer when I'm done with school."
"Where would you like to go?"
"New York! I'm dying to visit the New York Historical Society museum. After that, we can watch a musical and go to a bunch of restaurants and walk down Broadway!" I couldn't contain my excitement.
"You've been planning this for a while, haven't you?" Zuri says with an eyebrow raised.
"I may have thought about it once or twice," I respond and shrug a shoulder.
"Okay, we will start saving this week for the trip and get a hotel booked in advance. If you come across anything else that you might want to do then let me know because I'm going to start organizing and preparing for it." Zuri says. I love how organized she is. Sometimes she goes overboard with the planners, sticky notes, and daily checklists, but it does make life less messy.
We finish getting ready and check ourselves out in the mirror. Zuri is wearing an orange tank top and high-waisted holy denim jeans. Her box braids are up in a ponytail, but they still go halfway down her back. I decide to wear a black and thin white striped romper that is off the shoulders. We slip on our sandles, grab our purses, and walk out the door.
First, we stop at our favorite boutique called Lucielle's. This is the best place to get jeans, shorts, skirts, and cheap jewelry. We both got four mini skirts and five pairs of shorts. Next, we went to the mall to get crop tops, shoes, jeans, bras, and panties. Of course, it isn't a proper trip to the mall without getting a large-sized cup of Dippin' Dots ice cream. I get the coffee-flavored of course and Zuri gets cookies n cream.
"I'm all shopped out. Let's get home so I can get ready for work." I say.
"I might have to come in tonight and have a drink. I hear the bartender is pretty sexy." Zuri says with a wink.
Three o' clock
I get dressed in my work clothes, which consist of tiny black shorts and a black tank top that shows just a centimeter of my stomach. In big letters over my breasts is the name of the pub, "Channing's".
"I love you, babe. I'll be home around twelve-thirty because Neil texted and said Jake didn't show up for his shift." I lean down and plant a kiss on Zuri's forehead as she lays on the couch and watches a movie.
"Okay, I love you too. I'll stop by for a drink around seven o'clock."
When I get to work, the place is packed. On the bright side, I'll be getting a lot of tips. About four hours into my shift, I see a familiar face walk in. My history teacher, Professor Laurens goes to the bar and takes a seat.
"Hey, Professor. What can I get for you?" I ask with a large smile. Professor Laurens is the sexiest teacher on campus. He has golden-brown eyes and espresso-toned skin. His hair is cut short with a nice fade and he has a full beard that is always freshly lined up.
"Hey, Saviera. I didn't know you worked here." He says.
"Yeah I just started a couple of weeks ago and I love it. I just can't wait to get a career started with history. I know you of all people understand that feeling too." I didn't realize how nervous he makes me. I've never spoken to him outside of the classroom. It feels more personal now that we're in a bar. It's a whole different vibe.
"Yeah, I remember those days. Eager to get to the destination, but don't let that stop you from living in the moment. Happiness isn't something you find, it's what you create." He says.
"I think I needed to hear that. Thank you, Professor."
"Call me Daveed while we're off-campus. Professor makes me feel old and I'm barely 30." He flashes me a panty-dropping grin.
"Okay. What would you like to drink, Daveed?" I respond with a friendly smile.
"I'll take a SnakeBite. Thank you."
"No problem."
Zuri walks in as I finish making his drink.
"Hey, baby! You want the usual?" I ask.
"I think I wanna try something different. I'll have a Sex on the Beach." She says in her flirty voice.
I say, "I can arrange that when I clock out." and give her a small kiss on the lips. As long as we don't full-blown make-out, my manager is more than happy to allow affection. I go make her drink and bring it back. She's sitting right next to Daveed, so I decide to introduce them.
"Zuri this is my history teacher Daveed Laurens, Daveed this is my girlfriend of five years, Zuri."
I've talked about Professor Laurens to Zuri many times before, so I know the look on her face is saying "you're right, he's fine as hell!". Daveed's face is saying "Saviera is gay?". It always takes people by surprise for some reason. The first time someone asked me who the 'man' is in the relationship, it took quite a lot of self-control to not punch them in their throat. The stereotype that makes people believe there is always one "manly" woman in a lesbian relationship is so annoying.
"It's nice to meet you, Daveed. Sav talks my ear off about your class all the time. She might love history more than you do."
"It's a pleasure to meet you too, Zuri. I'm glad she enjoys my class. You two are high school sweethearts?" He asks.
"Pretty much. We started dating our junior year, but the attraction was there way before. We've never dated anyone else before then." Says Zuri.
"Wow, that's awesome. I'm happy for you guys." He says. Maybe I'm imagining things, but I think I saw a flash of longing in his eyes. I'm not positive, but there was something there.
"Thank you. How about you? Do you have a partner?" Zuri asks while I make a drink for another customer.
"No. Committed relationships never really work out for me, but maybe one day."
"That's the spirit. You never know when love is going to fall into your lap." I say. "Do you need another one or anything else?"
"Yeah, I'll take one more, please."
I make his drink and serve a few others. I see Zuri and Daveed in a conversation while I'm busy. I told her he was a pretty cool teacher, so it's no surprise that they're hitting it off as real friends do. Two hours later and plenty more drinks, Zuri is tipsy and I'm sure Daveed is feeling a buzz as well. Maybe it's unprofessional to hang out with my teacher, but the more we get to know him, the more Zuri and I like his company. I don't drink on the job, but I sure wouldn't mind having a few shots with these two when I'm not at work.
"The three of us should go out for drinks sometime. It would be nice if I could have drinks with you both." I say.
"It might not be a good idea. Meeting with a female student outside of school could be seen as inappropriate." Mr. Fun Sucker responds.
"Well, I consider you my friend now and I'm not your student. So go out with me next Friday and I'll bring my girlfriend with me." Zuri chimes in with her master plan.
"Well, when you word it like that it doesn't sound bad. Alright, I'm in." I try not to break out into a celebratory dance.
We put his number in our phones and put ours in his. We had no idea this would be the beginning of a very crazy ride.
