Why This is Wrong by Monica Bolt

All the reasons why this is wrong:
Reason #1: I thought you were only a one-night stand.
Reason #2: I didn’t think that you’d show up as my professor.
Reason #3: I just wasn’t… thinking.
And I should have.
But I shut off the smarter half of my brain before going to that party.
I saw you, and I was floored.
Mesmerized.
Like a little girl in a candy store.

But when I wore my big girl shoes and showed up to class, you took my breath away… again.
Because there you were… with your big bulging biceps and those nerdy glasses.
Staring me down like you were going to punish me for being late.
Did you know that I was your student when you held me in your arms?
Did you know that I could get pregnant and you could lose your job if this secret were to come out?
