My art teacher has had suspicion about me and Monica for quite sometime. We weren't very secretive in her class though, so we didn't care if she knew, but after she put the pieces together she kind of just treated us wrong.
"Stop touching each other."
"You two are disturbing."
Excuse me, but when has a teacher been allowed to voice her opinion about homosexuals to the homosexuals' faces? It's rude, uncalled for, and a hundred percent biased. If we had known she was a homophobe I wouldn't have allowed her to know about us.
But we stopped touching each other. Cause she was just enforcing the PDA rules.
It's not like we were over-doing it. We never did anything in front of anyone beyond hugging. I guess we hugged too much. But that's okay, we didn't complain, just did as she said.
Well, one day we were fighting over my glasses and she thought we were being too physical. We weren't, but okay, whatever you want. She threatened to send us to the office, give us a pink slip, tattle-tale. She didn't. Instead, she just warned us again and told us next time she'll move us.
That was a month ago.
Today: we have kept our respectful distance from each other while still keeping in each other's comfort zone happily since then. We were looking at my art photography blog for that class, so we were just close, but still distant as much as we could. The shirt I had been wearing today was falling off my shoulder and Monica was telling me to pull it up. I didn't want to.
"Nobody else needs to see your shoulder." Monica said.
"So what?" I began to laugh and purposely make my shirt fall off my shoulders.
So, she pushes it onto my shoulder and then puts her hand down. Next thing we know, the art teacher is saying, "That is it." and then telling us to seperate.
At first, I refused. I mean, she fixed my shirt. We didn't make-out or even hug in front of her. We didn't do anything at all. Now, she gave me the complete impression that she is that homophobic that any physical contact disgusts her and that pissed me off. But I'm not about to risk getting in trouble, or grounded, or written up in trouble just for her rude behavior, so I moved.
I don't know how I completely feel right now, but none of it is positive when it comes to her.
So. Screw you. You homphobe.
