extremely hygienic. However, life takes a turn when a new teacher starts at
Halfway High. Mr. Stone, the quirky and charismatic English teacher is twice

seems unable to stay away from her.

Excerpt:
Mr. Stone’s smile faltered. ‘I like my women
to have a mind of their own – to be witty. Like you.’
My throat closed up. Like me?
‘You’re an amazing girl,’ he
said suddenly.
His use of the word girl made
my stomach twist painfully.
‘Am I?’ I asked.
‘Of course.’
‘A girl?’
He smiled knowingly. ‘An
amazing woman,’ he corrected himself.
‘No one has ever told me that
before,’ I said.
‘I don’t believe that,’ he
smiled. ‘You’re clever, and beautiful, and damn witty.’
Mr. Stone’s jaw tensed as he
realized what he was saying.
‘Beautiful?’ I asked, the word
escaping as nothing more than a whisper.
‘Don’t you know?’ he asked.
My heart thundered as I stared
at him. Oh please, my mind begged. Please tell me what is going on in that head
of yours.
‘D-don’t I know what?’ I asked.
‘Don’t you know what you’re
doing to me?’ He said as though I was torturing him.
‘What?’ My skin stung and my
head swam with the possibilities.
‘Rose, I-’ He paused to collect
his thoughts. ‘I’ve felt this … this pull towards you since day one. I can’t
explain it.’
He didn’t need to explain it,
because I felt it too. His eyes, his smile and his scent had me drawn in.
I placed a shaking hand over his,
which was still on the steering wheel. He looked at our hands for a moment
before allowing me to thread my fingers through his. I could feel his pulse in
between each of my fingers.
Mr. Stone inhaled deeply.
‘Christ,’ he muttered, shutting his eyes tightly.
‘What’s the matter?’ I
breathed.
‘That … that scent. The way you
smell-’
I suddenly became very
self-conscious. Bullies at school often accused me of smelling like wet dog. I sniffed
my shirt, but I smelled perfectly normal.
‘What is it?’ I said defensively.
‘I showered this morning-’
Mr. Stone laughed, and I felt
my cheeks burn with embarrassment.
‘No,’ he said with a small
smile. ‘You smell amazing.’
‘I do?’
‘Absolutely. You always do.’
I never wore perfume, only
regular home brand antiperspirant.
‘It makes me dizzy,’ he
confessed. ‘It’s intoxicating.’
‘What do I smell like?’ I
asked, rather flushed.
Mr. Stone licked his lips as
though he could taste me in the air. ‘Sweet,’ he said.
My cheeks burned crimson, and I
wished he would look at me. I couldn’t believe this was happening.
‘I want to kiss you so very
badly, Rose,’ Mr. Stone said under his breath. ‘But I can’t … and it’s killing
me.’
My heart hammered so loudly
against my ribcage that I was sure Mr. Stone could hear it from where he sat.
Suddenly, I felt powerful. He
wanted me … and it terrified him.
‘Mr. Stone,’ I breathed, but he
still didn’t look at me. ‘Tom.’
A small groan escaped him as
though his name leaving my lips was taboo.
‘Look at me,’ I said, my eyes
fixated on him.
‘I can’t,’ he said, shaking his
head.
