It was forbidden for a professor and a student to be together, the truth sat like a stone in my stomach. If there was one genuinely honorable man I knew, it was Marshall. It was one of his qualities that endeared me to him, he wouldn't disregard the rules, they were in place for a reason. And I couldn't let him risk losing his job, the job that he loves so much because of me. Granted, he would quit after this semester was over but I knew he wanted to get back to teaching

Jealousy ran through my bloodstream and I wanted to tell them that he is mine, they couldn't have him. Of course did but I wanted to.
