Days turned to weeks and weeks turned to months. Sex became a part of our everyday routine. We had sex at every place in our apartment. She sucked me off during her periods. My life was like a dream came true. I went to the university during day time while she went to high school. I'd go to the hardware store in the evening and come home to Emily's arms. She always helped me in my studies. I needed mathematics for engineering and she was very helpful since she was a mathematics teacher herself. Yes, they were advanced than in high school. But she helped me in every way she could. We went out on dates and most of our holidays were spent having sex on the bed or otherwise.
I rarely went home to see my parents. Probably 2 or 3 times during the whole first year. But I called them once in a week. Then I decided to visit them for a few days after my first year end exams. I wanted Emily to know my parents. It was easy for us since high school vacation was also during my university vacations. She had met them during parents' meetings in high schools. But this was going to be the first time she'll be meeting them personally. She was excited to meet them and part of her was scared of the possible rejection from my family.
But I reassured her that nothing would happen. I called my parents to let them know that I was coming home for few days. They were really happy to hear it, specially my mother who was the closer to me from my parents. She told me that she'd tell my brother to visit us. My brother, Rick, was a mechanic and he was damn good at it. He was 3 years older than me.
We packed our luggage and started the long drive. We reached home by lunch. I saw dads and my brother's cars were in the driveway. So I parked my car at the roadside and asked Emily to wait in the car until I talked to my parents.
Mom was preparing lunch while my dad was reading a newspaper. Brother had fallen asleep on the couch. Dad was the first to see me. He greeted me and called mom and Rick to come. They were so happy to see me after a long time. I talked with them for a few minutes and said that I had someone they wanted to meet.
I went out and brought her into the house. "Mom, Dad, Rick, meet Emily," I introduced her to my family.
"Congratulations little brother, you finally found someone," Said my brother.
Mom and dad also were happy that they had the chance to meet her. Mom told us to sit for lunch after refreshing ourselves. We showered and changed our dresses. Emily wore more conservatively than at her home. My parents asked me about me at first and then mom asked, "So, are you studying in same university?"
We had decided to tell them the truth without hiding anything. Emily said, "No, Mrs. Mathews. I'm a teacher. I teach mathematics at free town high school."
I saw the look on mom's face change. "So, how did you meet?" That was my dad.
I knew I had to tell them from the beginning. "Mom, Dad, doesn't she look familiar to either one of you?" I asked thinking that maybe they had recognized her.
"Of course you look familiar," Mom said looking at Emily. "But I can't exactly tell from where."
I looked at Emily and asked mom, "Can you remember my math teacher in senior year?"
"Mrs. Anderson, wasn't she? I can remember that you told me once you had a crush on her." Mom was embarrassing me. "But I didn't mind it since you did your studies well. I think I met her once at a parents meeting. Why did you ask?"
"Are you her daughter or something?" Asked my brother. He hadn't seen her before since he went to a different high school.
I heard Emily laugh as I looked at him angrily. "No dude. This is her," I said.
Those words took everyone by surprise. "Really?" My dad was the one to break the uncomfortable silence.
"Yes Mr. Mathews. I was his math teacher in senior year," Emily said removing her specs.
"You really are her. I couldn't recognize you with the specs," Said mom who went to the parents' meetings all the time.
We had our lunch silently for some time. "So Jason, tell me," That was my brother. "Is this how you scored highest marks for mathematics? By scoring with your teacher first?" There was a hint of jealousy in his voice.
"Oh my god no. Jason is one of the best students I've met. Our relationship developed only after he moved to Free Town," Emily defended me.
Then we told our story starting with her divorce and moving to Free Town. My parents listened to every detail and they didn't seem much offended about me dating a 30 year old divorcee.
Thankfully they understood us and didn't object for us being together. But my brother didn't look pleased, but I didn't care.
We spent that day in our home resting after a long drive. Emily became very friendly with my parents and I noticed Rick ogling quite a few times at Emily. Then he went to his apartment in after the dinner. We moved to my room. On Sunday, we went for sight-seeing. Yes, both of us had visited those places. But this time, we visited as a couple. She knew quite a lot of details about all those places and she told me everything she knew. We were like a high school couple on our first trip. Emily looked really happy and we made out in public 2 or 3 times. I met some of my friends who were still in town and guys from our class recognized her. They were happy for me. But I knew most of them were jealous that I was banging the hottest teacher in town.
The week days went quietly. I helped dad in mowing the yard and all the repair works while Emily helped mom in household work. Our sex life was limited to our bedroom only at night. But we very much enjoyed our little visit to our home town.
It had been in my mind for several weeks to propose Emily. With my parents being okay, I wanted to rush things up. Tuesday morning I went to buy her a ring. I had saved money for some time now. It wasn't very expensive, but it was the best one I could buy with my money. We had our dinner which had been prepared by Emily. I excused everyone before anyone got up from the table after the meal. "Emily, I have to ask you something," I said.
"What's that baby?" She asked curiously.
I quickly kneeled beside her taking the ring to my hand. "I know we've had our ups and downs. But deep down inside me I know that you are the woman for me. Emily Anderson, will you make me the happiest man in the whole universe?" I asked showing her the ring.
