“Oh my God! Details, girlfriend, details!”

I explain to her that on the day I went to the spa, her words were weirdly prophetic. “I honestly never thought in a million years that I would, but I ended up having sex with… someone.”

“At the spa?!”

“In the sauna.”

“Oh my God! That’s so hot!”

“I know.”

“So who is it?!” she asks, curiosity dancing in her eyes.

“Um…” I take a deep breath and let it out slowly. “You have to promise me not to tell anyone, okay?”

Kristy’s brows shoot up. “Did you have sex with a girl?”

“No!” I laugh and shake my head. “No, it’s not that. It’s just… well, I had sex with Mike. And Scott.”

My best friend’s jaw drops open. “You had sex with two guys at the same time?”

I nod, suddenly sheepish.

“Holy shit,” Kristy breathes, looking at me with new respect. “In public? Who are you?!”

“I know,” I say, covering my face with my hands. “I still can’t believe it.”

“But wait, who are Mike and Scott? Are they two randoms? Have you met up with them since?”

I swallow hard. “Kristy, Mike and Scott … well, they’re our Astro 1 professors. You know, Professors Logan and Kamp.”

I’ve never seen so many different emotions parade across my friend’s face. She looks confused, then amazed, then horrified, then excited, and probably a million other things that I can’t discern. She leaps to her feet. “Oh my God!” she screams. “You had sex with two of our professors?!”

I stagger to my feet and clap my hand over her mouth. “Shhhh!” I hiss. I know we’re in the privacy of our own room, but these walls are notoriously thin. I can’t risk anyone else finding out.

“Sorry,” she squeaks, and I let my hand drop. She immediately seizes both of my hands and jumps up and down.

“They’re so gorgeous!” Kristy yells, only a little more quietly. “And they’re older and successful and smart and did I mention how gorgeous they are?! Holy shit, Vi! You’re an icon!”

“I swear I didn’t know they were professors when we were making love,” I say. “They just approached me while we were in the sauna, and they were so hot that I couldn’t resist. I honestly thought it was an anonymous hook-up and that I’d never see them again. But then the next day, when they strolled to the front of the classroom, I absolutely thought I would die.”

“I can’t believe you didn’t tell me right away!” Kristy screams again, still jumping up and down like a madwoman.

“I’m sorry,” I say. “I just… well, obviously it’s kind of a big, weird deal, and I didn’t know if I should keep it to myself.”

“I’m so glad you didn’t,” says Kristy. “This is exactly the kind of juicy best friend gossip I want in my life.” Her eyes go wide once more. “So did you talk to them about it? Is that why you stayed back after class that first day?!”

I nod. “And I met up with them a few days later at a cafe to talk about it more.”

“You saw them outside of class?!” Kristy cries. “So you’re going to hook up with them again? Hell yeah, girlfriend!”

“I don’t know,” I say, rubbing my arm. “I want to see Mike and Scott again, and they said they want to see me again, but I just don’t know if it’s a good idea.”

“Of course it’s a good idea!” Kristy affirms, shaking the bag of gummy worms emphatically. “This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Violet! Two incredibly attractive older guys want to hook up with you, maybe on a regular basis? You’d better go after that!”

“I just am so scared that someone will find out,” I sigh. “You have to admit that it’s a little taboo to say the least.”

Kristy’s grin turns wicked. “But that’s exactly why it’s so hot.”

I giggle a little. “You’re right. But okay, that’s my secret. Can we please watch the movie now?”

“Hell no!” she screams with delight. But then my buddy settles after I give her a look.

“Fine,” Kristy pouts as she pulls up the rom-com on her laptop. “But anything we watch now is going to be so much less exciting than reality. Who would have guessed? You’re such a ho, girlfriend, and I’m so proud of you!”

I grab another handful of gummy worms, giggling, and feel a load of tension melt from my shoulders. I’m so relieved that someone finally knows my secret. I trust Kristy; we’ve been best friends for a while now. It’s still a little nerve-wracking to confess something of this magnitude, but it also makes me feel a little better.

The movie starts and I lean my head on my best friend’s shoulder, grateful for her presence. I just need to decide what to do next with the two gorgeous professors who currently await my answer.

Mike

Teaching is no joke. I definitely went into this profession with the wrong attitude when I first started out. I wanted something that seemed “easy,” something that would allow me to focus more on women than on my studies. A few weeks in, I realized just how wrong I was. My workload piled up into an impossible-to-scale mountain, while my time to wine and dine dwindled to nothing. By then, though, I had become enamored with academia and realized how lucky I was to be pursuing it.
