The cafeteria.

The cafeteria by far was one of the last places I wanted to be right now. Since this was a campus during the day time there was always plenty of students coming in and out, sitting to eat, and gathering for conversation. Those conversations became all about me when I was pulled into plain view right before all of them in nothing but my flannel boxers.

My face burned bright auburn as every student in the cafeteria turned their attention towards me as they ate their food. A girl with long brown hair carrying a chocolate pudding cup not-so-subtly bumped into me, spattering a few drops of pudding on my bare chest.

"Oops, sorry," the girl with the pudding cup wiped the chocolate off my chest with her finger and ate it. "Mmm, it's even tastier!" Goosebumps erupted all over my flesh from her sensuous behavior.

Bridget glared at the girl. "Look all you want, but don't touch."

The girl with the pudding cup wasn't won over by Bridget's lovely accent the way most people are. "Hey bitch, I can touch whatever I want and if you don't like it..."

"I don't like it." Scarlet cut in.

"Look, you better..." Pudding cup girl froze once she realized she was talking to Scarlet. "Oh no...I mean, oh God! I mean...Scarlet! S-sorry. I didn't realize this was your friend I swear!" She was shaking so fearfully you could hear the spoon in her pudding cup click against the sides. "I'm just going to leave now."

Scarlet took the other girl's pudding cup. "Vamoose."

Just like that the girl was gone. This left me with so many questions. Does Scarlet have some kind of terrifying reputation on campus? If so, I wish I had known that before I struck a bet with her. Scarlet just took a bite of pudding looking impassive.

"Um, I suppose I owe you some thanks?" I spoke cautiously.

"Yes, well," Scarlet took a scoop of pudding and raised it to my face which I numbly ate without thinking. "I didn't really do it for you." Scarlet took another spoonful of pudding and held it in front of Bridget who was still clinging to my arm. "Nobody, and I do mean nobody, messes with my friends except me." Bridget ate the spoonful gleefully.

Scarlet took another scoop and offered it to me again. Now that I took a moment to think clearly I politely refused. "Oh come on Professor, just one more..." She shoved the spoon to the side of my face, smearing chocolate pudding across my cheek while making it look like an accident. "Whoops, silly me. Bridget, be a dear and clean that off for Professor Finn." Bridget stood up on her tiptoes and licked the sweet mess right off my cheek.

My face steamed piping hot with embarrassment and confusion. "W-wait a minute! Why did you scold that other girl like that when you just..."

"Oh look who's come here to see you Prof." Scarlet interrupted me. I would have chastised her further for it if I had not noticed who she was referring to.

My heart sank at the sight of...
