Chapter Text
“My gods” you thought to yourself “Viktor as my teacher? again?”.
You sat down quietly at the back of the classroom. You had Viktor for your first year of Biology at the academy but you didn’t expect him to teach second year as well. You were hoping that you would’ve gotten a new teacher in hopes to escape your minor crush on Viktor, it seemed that you had no luck. You sorted out your books quietly praying that he wouldn’t notice you were in his class. He was sorting out his papers on his desk when he looked up, he made eye contact with you and smiled. You smiled back, he took that as an invitation to speak to you so he started to walk over to your desk. He was wearing a deep maroon shirt with a black vest and black pants which were somewhat tight. He put his hand on your desk and smiled.
“What a nice surprise to see you here Y/N, I’m glad I at least have one student who I am familiar with.”
He looked down at your face which was turning a slight pink. You couldn’t muster up the courage to say anything so you just flashed him a quick smile in hopes that he would then leave you alone. Thankfully it was time to start class so he walked off, flashing you another smile. He introduced himself and started to talk about the curriculum and what exactly we were going to study this semester. You couldn’t focus on what he was saying because your mind started to wonder. The universe must be punishing you, Viktor? for another class? it was all too much. He was too handsome to be a teacher, your poor old heart couldn’t handle it. Before you knew it the class was over and you had missed everything he had set. You decided that you were just going to ask a classmate instead of asking him because you didn’t wanna embarrass yourself. Before you could finish packing your things up he called out your name.
“Y/N? May I speak to you for a minute?”. You nodded obliging politely. You walked over to his desk with your books in hand.
“I noticed that you weren’t paying attention to most of the class, is anything the matter?”
He looked at you with subtle concern before giving you a polite smile.
“You don’t have to tell me if you don’t feel comfortable of course I just wanted to check in”.
You blushed. How embarrassing.
“I am fine professor I am just incredibly tired” adding a small yawn to try and convince him. He wasn’t convinced and cocked his head slightly, he wasn’t going to push further as it was your business so he just nodded.
“Alright then, I’ll leave you to it. Have a good afternoon”.
You smiled back at him, feeling your cheeks redden at the sweetness in his voice.
“Don’t be afraid to come to me about any problems though, I care about all of my student’s wellbeing and I want you to perform the best you can in class” he said sternly, you noticed a small twinkle in his eye as he looked at you with reassurance.
You nodded again and briskly walked out of the classroom. You could feel him watching you as you walked out, his eyes boring into your back. You opened the door quickly and ran out of the classroom, the door slamming behind you. You were humiliated. It had been the smallest interaction yet you were swooning like a madman. You pressed your back against the wall to catch your breath, you didn’t realise that you had been holding your breath that entire time.
A FEW HOURS LATER
You lay on your bed listening to ‘You get me so high by The Neighbourhood’. It was your comfort song and usually helped you relax in situations like these. You were going over everything that happened today in your head, which was practically nothing. You had no idea over why you were so flustered, you had one of the most simplest conversations yet every-time you thought about it it felt like butterflies were flying amuck in your stomach. You closed your eyes letting your mind rest when you slowly started to drift off to sleep with the thought of Viktor in your mind, stroking your cheek gently as he stared into your eyes. A girl could dream you thought and then you fell asleep.
