I was taken aback and sat up straight simultaneously, making a "click" sound.
"Hmm?"
Upon seeing the person holding the mobile phone, I couldn't help but doubt my own eyes. The situation between me and Zoe that could be misinterpreted with just one glance made me feel dizzy.
"Teacher, doing such vulgar things in a confined space."
"It's not a confined space at all."
Leaning against the door and deliberately fiddling with the mobile phone with a smile on his face made me only able to sigh.
"Paul."
"Too bad. I've already saved it."
Facing me who was frowning, Paul narrowed his eyes and showed an extremely pleased smile. However, on the other hand—.
"Why on earth are you here!"
As soon as Zoe saw Paul's figure, she looked extremely displeased and showed a disgusted expression without hiding it at all.
It's the first time I've seen a girl dislike Paul this much. Indeed, of course there are girls who don't like him or are not enthusiastic about him either, but with his looks being able to attract attention, when it comes to asking whether they like or dislike him, girls who say they dislike him are relatively rare.
"Sorry for the interruption. Excuse me, Zoe."
"Don't be like this. It's disgusting. When you call me, I'll get goosebumps!"
While waving her hand to shoo away Paul who was walking over slowly, Zoe took a small step back and stood beside me. Zoe seemed to dislike Paul extremely.
"The more scared you are, the more I want to bully you."
"Shut up! Perpetual horndog."
"What is it? You're still holding a grudge. That level was just a greeting. Just a kiss on the corner of the mouth. I didn't expect you to be so innocent."
Paul looked at Zoe who was frowning with a smile all over his face. Somehow, I sighed deeply. This is probably the reason why Zoe dislikes Paul.
Paul's behavior could already be considered sexual harassment or acts of a pervert, but because it's him, only this level of reaction is shown, I guess.
Generally speaking, he would be criticized more severely or even have no excuse if sued. No, although Zoe's words are already rather harsh remarks, considering what he has done, it's understandable.
"Paul, don't tease girls too much."
The number one lecher in the school having a king-like air really gives me a headache.
"I'm not teasing. I'm just showing affection."
"If so, it's even worse."
Looking up at Paul standing in front of me, he was completely unrepentant with an air of arrogance.
Yes, Paul was originally a student with a somewhat bad nature like this. Teachers are usually easily fobbed off and persuaded by him and feel a bit helpless towards him. But his leadership ability is strong, so people around him still gather around him mysteriously. But there is indeed something wrong with his character.
"So, what's up. It's rare for you to come here. Do you have something?"
I'm neither an advisor nor a person in charge. To Paul, I should be a completely useless person.
"Ah, right. The ministerial meeting has started, Minister Zoe."
"Eh, ah, crap."
After hearing Paul's words, Zoe looked at her watch and hurriedly rushed towards the door. But suddenly she stopped and looked back this way. Seeing her complicated expression, I couldn't help but tilt my head, and her face became even more distorted.
"If Ben teacher does something strange to me, I won't forgive you."
"Hey, what does something strange mean."
I glared at Paul. Zoe slammed the door shut with a "bang", and I couldn't help but frown. However, she still left like a typhoon. Only my sigh remained in the silent room. Zoe's words gave me an extremely bad premonition, but I still looked up at Paul standing in front of me first.
"...So, what do you want with me?"
While observing his appearance, I tilted my head. Paul who was looking at me suddenly relaxed the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"Can I ask you to be the advisor for the anniversary?"
"Advisor?"
I looked at the paper and Paul suddenly handed in front of me and tilted my head in confusion. That was the document for the handover of the advisor.
"Isn't the activity hosted by the student council supposed to be in the charge of the student council advisor?"
"That person had an accident a few days ago, right."
"Ah, ah."
After hearing Paul's words, I suddenly remembered. Yes, the current student council advisor teacher fell down the stairs after getting drunk—It'll take three weeks to fully recover. Recalling it a bit, Paul slowly lifted the corners of his mouth and showed a wry smile. Yes, that person's actions are really unpredictable and make people unable to help but show a wry smile.
"He's still very capable in work. He's a good teacher."
"Probably only Ben teacher is free now. Can you help out before he comes back?"
"Well, it's really hard to refuse when you put it like this."
I've been deliberately avoiding these activities all along just to not be caught. Now that I'm discovered, there's really nowhere to escape.
"It should be okay in about two or three weeks, right?"
"Um."
Seeing that I was still hesitating, Paul suddenly narrowed his eyes and bent down. He put his hand on the backrest and leaned over. The spring of the chair made a "creaking" dull sound.
"So teacher, choosing between kissing me here right now and being the advisor, which one will you choose?"
"Hey, this is a threat, right. There's no need to choose."
I sighed helplessly. Somehow, Paul tilted his head in slight surprise.
"What's wrong?"
"You unexpectedly have no crisis management ability."
"Ah?"
Not understanding what he meant, I looked at him in confusion. Paul suddenly moved closer and put his face close. At this point, even if I'm slow-witted, I understood.
"Wait, wait a moment."
I hurriedly twisted my body and turned my face away. My unguarded neck was bitten.
"Whoa!"
"Why are you making such an unattractive sound."
Paul deliberately made a "tsk tsk" sound, loosened his lips, and looked at me dissatisfiedly.
"It's so noisy. How could I possibly make an attractive sound."
I complained while pressing my stinging neck. Paul's dissatisfied expression eased up a bit.
"So that's how it is. Your reaction is very cute and has great value in being bullied."
"Why do I have to be bullied by you."
Paul nodded as if he understood something himself and stared at my face. I pushed him away, but he stopped my action of pulling away to create distance. His knee squeezed between my legs and my body was caught in the middle.
"Why are you so close."
"Because I want to bully you."
Paul ignored my fluster and narrowed his eyes in a good mood. One of his knees was kneeling in the gap of the chair. He bent down and shortened the distance between us all of a sudden. In this way, no matter how hard I tried to avoid, there was no way out. My body floated up backward. This kind of posture was even more disadvantageous.
"Teacher, are you seducing me?"
Paul raised the corners of his mouth teasingly and easily inserted his arm.
