Mentor

I hurried to my last class period. Today's the day the program starts so I headed down to the art room to meet with Mr. Way. I'd never seen him before, but I hear a lot about him. I hear female students always talking about how handsome he is, and I'm really excited to see for myself.

I walk through the open doorway and notice the lack of students. Mr. Way notices me standing there and welcomes me in. My eyes scanned over the teacher and I must say, he really was drop dead gorgeous. His chiseled features took my breath away. "You must be Frank," he smiled, offering me a hand to shake. I nodded and shook it. His grip was so strong, yet at the same time so gentle. That's something that still interests me to this day.

"Is anyone else coming?" I questioned. He shook his head.

"I always have the last period off," he smiled. "Now, why don't you tell me about yourself, Frank."

I sat for a moment, thinking of what to say. I wasn't the best at talking to people, and especially not people this beautiful.

"well, I-um" I mumbled. "I like to draw. And I-uh I play guitar and listen to music in my free time,"

Mr. Way just smiled at me and every now and then he'd make these 'mhmm' sounds. I could tell this was either going to be the best 10 months of my life, or the worst.

We sat in an awkward silence for a while so in an attempt to break the tension I asked him about himself. He told me he likes to listen to music and that he sings a little bit, but he says he's no good. We talked for a bit and turns out we have a lot in common. We both listen to the same kind of music, we both love horror movies, and we both read comic books. After a long conversation I completely forgot Mr. Way was a teacher. He felt more like a friend.

I didn't know if he was actually being friendly because he enjoyed my company or if he was just being payed to but I felt special. All of the girls in this school always go on and on about him and here I am having a conversation about the latest issue of his favorite comic book.
Feels good, ya know?
