Ivy leaned against the wall and stared at her classmates jumping up and down on the beat of the music. Their arms up in the air as they were dancing. It was a sweaty jungle of limbs on the gymnasium floor. She didn't much care about prom, but this was her last one. She'd graduated and now at nineteen years old she would finally leave high school and start college. There was just one more thing she wanted to do.
She looked up and stared at Ezra, he was gorgeous, he'd taken of his jacked and now he was dancing in only his long sleeve shirt. His dark curls framing his face gorgeously, a big smile as he said something to his friend. Ivy had a crush on him for as long as she could remember and since they were all leaving town for different colleges she had nothing left to lose. She would just ask him, she would just flat out ask him, according to the internet guys never said no to sex. She'd decided that she wanted to loose her virginity tonight to Ezra.
Her fingers folding around the condom in her pocket as she ventured out onto the dance floor. She approached Ezra.
'Hey,' She said shyly. 'Wanna fuck?'
'What?' Ezra screamed over the music.
'Fucking.' She made a circle with her fingers and then thrust her other finger inside mimicking penetration. 'You. Me.'
He laughed. He laughed right in her face. He technically didn't say no. He just pulled on his friends shoulder. 'Look this slut wants to fuck me.' He said loudly. 'How desperate do you have to be? How delusional to think she could get with me.' They laughed, more and more and more people were involved.
Horrified Ivy fled the dance floor, with burning cheeks and foggy eyes she ran out of the gymnasium. When she was alone she hid her face in her hands and she sank to the floor, completely defeated. She tried to hold back her tears, yet since it was impossible to humiliate herself any more, she eventually gave in and started crying.
'Hey there.' Someone was squatting in front of her, a hand on her shoulder. 'Why are you out here all by yourself?' A friendly voice asked. When she looked up she saw it was Mister Havers from her literature class. 'This isn't a night for tears.' He said. 'This is a night to have fun with your friends.'
Ivy just shook her head.
'No?' He asked.
'What happened? Do you want to talk about it?'
'Am I ugly?' She said with a whimpering voice. 'I'm not that ugly am I? You aren't horrified by the thought of having sex with me, are you?'
'O boy.' Mister Havers said, her reached for her face and with a thumb he wiped a tear from her cheek. 'Come.' He said. He stood up and reached out his hand. 'I think there are some tissues in the teachers lounge.' He hoisted her up and she followed him through the hallway.
A moment later she was sitting on quite a comfy recliner in the teachers lounge, sipping from a plastic cup of water and dabbing her face with a ball of crumpled up tissues.
'There, feeling better?' Mister Havers asked.
She shook her head and stared at his gentle eyes and his friendly smile. He looked quite good in a tuxedo. She still wanted to loose her virginity. If not to Ezra then to anybody else. She wouldn't be go to college a virgin. All of her friends had already had multiple boyfriends and she refused to be forever single, forever alone.
'We all get rejected sometimes.' Mister Havers said. 'That's just part of live. It hurts but you'll get over it, you're still young and there are lots of other fish in the sea. There's someone out there for everybody, you know.'
'Wow.' Ivy said sarcastic. 'Could you stuff anymore clichΓ©s in there?'
Mister Havers laughed. 'I know you probably think clichΓ©s are lame, but they're a clichΓ© for a reason, because a lot of people agree on the sentiment.'
'Am I ugly?' Ivy asked.
'You're a very beautiful girl.' Mister Havers said.
'So would you say no to having sex with me?'
His cheeks flushed and he flinched away from her. 'I... maybe if I was younger, but you know it's inappropriate for a teacher to have sex with a student, I can loose my job.'
'But I'm not a student anymore.' She said. 'I graduated.'
'I...It's time to go back to your friends.' Mister Havers said. 'You seemed to be perked up.'
'No.' Ivy shook her head. She pulled down the silky front of her dress and showed him the lace bra she was wearing underneath, she knew full well that she was behaving impulsively, but she just didn't care, she'd nothing left to loose. Somehow if she managed to fuck Mister Havers that would be revenge for Ezra. It would mean her life was back on track again.
