Orpheus Lulamoon: Diary of A Womanizer
Chapter 3: Loving In The Library
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAfter all of my classes for the day had come to an end I made my way to the library in order to use the printer. I need to make plenty of copies for my next lessons. It was definitely gonna take awhile considering how many students I had a day. I spotted the printer fairly easily, in all the time since I graduated the printer hadn't moved, "Orpheus Lulamoon," I heard a voice ask. I turned my head and saw the familiar face of Cheerilee an old friend of mine from back in my days as a student, "I thought it was you." She said as she hugged me gently.
I smiled and gently hugged her back before pulling away, "Cheerilee it's a pleasure to see you again, how are you?" I asked softly before stepping back and sitting slightly on the printer's table being careful not to mess up my papers.
"I've been good, being both the librarian and the English teacher can be tiresome but I've always liked children even teenagers no matter how rowdy they can get." She said smiling, we both chuckled softly. She blushed softly when she noticed the dogtags around my neck from my time in the military, "Luna mentioned that you served in the military before coming back, I'm just glad you're ok." She said in a sympathetic tone.
I nodded softly as I tucked my dogtags back into my shirt. My time in the service wasn't exactly something I enjoyed talking about, "Thanks Cheerilee but hey now I'm the new history teacher so I'm teaching something I care about." I replied. Cheerilee giggled at that.
"Hey I have to get back to grading papers but it was good talking to you again, we'll have to catch up with the others over drinks." She said smiling before going back to her desk. I nodded in response loving the idea of seeing my old school chums after being in the military for so long. To tell the truth I couldn't even remember what some of them even looked like. After bidding my old friend goodbye for now, I soon turned my attention back to the printer and began to make copies of my papers before going to the 'Memorial Wall'. A small portion of the library where teachers and students who passed away are honored via pictures or rewards they've won for one reason or another. I smiled seeing a picture of a man who looked just like me. This man was my father in his youth, Lostorios Lulamoon.
My father had been the chemistry teacher when I was a student before retiring due to being diagnosed with cancer. He ended up spending the remainder of his life helping my aunt and uncle with their magic show, which must've been where my sister Trixie got it from. I chuckled softly at my memories of young Trixie being enraptured by their magic, "I miss you dad." I said to no one in particular. Soon I returned to the printer and got all of the copies together before stacking them in a neat little pile. I smiled and picked up the stack of papers and carried them back to my room where I set them down in a small rack behind my desk.
I looked at the clock realizing what time it was and figured my sisters were probably waiting for me. I grabbed my bag and locked the door behind and I was about to head to my car when I noticed Cheerilee was still in the library. She appeared to be crying, "You ok Cheerilee?" I asked in a concerned and sympathetic manner.
She looked up once she heard me and rubbed her eyes trying to wipe away her tears, "Yeah, I guess I'm just a bit lonely. I'm always the last one to leave aside from Tia and Luna but they're always too busy to chat with me." She said. I looked at my phone checking to see if my sisters sent me a message. Sure enough Trixie mentioned that she and Coco were gonna go hangout with their friends. I closed the library door behind me and moved over to her softly running my fingers through her hair. It always use to make her feel better.
"Better?" I asked softly before kissing the top of her head. We had dated in high school so I knew how to cheer her up. She nodded softly before smiling at me. I had never noticed until then just how beautiful her eyes were. It had been five minutes before either of us realized how close our lips were to touching.
"Orpheus, could you please kiss me?" She asked softly. I cup her cheeks with my hands before responding in time with a sift passion filled kiss. She moaned softly as she kissed me back wraping her arms around me and tangling her fingers in my long black hair. I would've taken her right there and then if it hadn't been for the library door opening.
We pulled away and turned to see Principal Celestia and her younger sister Vice Principal Luna standing there with knowing smirks on their faces. The four of us burst into laughter, "Just like when we were teenagers." Tia said shaking her head. I missed my friends.
