You stay a bit longer. They tease you further.

"You do know how much excitement you're causing don't you Dean Hawkfeather?" Tiana asks with a grin. "You and your friends I mean? Everyone's talking about you, especially after this morning."

"I'm sure it's a big change to have men teaching at Pink Rose," you smile. "I suspect the novelty will wear off soon."

"I wouldn't count on it," Tiana replies. "There are already girls scheming to seduce you. All four of you. My guess is some of them might have already succeeded."

You give her a neutral smile, keeping your face stoic as both Cindy and Margot squeeze your thighs again. "What about you Miss...?"

"Willes," she smiles prettily, giving you a wink. "But you can call me Tiana. I'd like that."

"What about you Miss Willes? Are you one of the schemers?" She blushes prettily and cocks her head as though considering the idea for the first time, her eyes flirting with you. She's wearing a tight white top, also obviously braless, and black yoga pants that look painted on her toned legs.

"Well....it's a thought...." she says drawing out her words and getting soft giggles from Margot and Rose. "This is a very small town, with not too many amusements, and you are all very easy on the eyes."

"We're also teachers," you say, trying to be firm but fully aware that you're more than pushing the boundaries of hypocrisy.

"That makes you even more tempting, at least to some girls," Tiana smiles. "And older men can be so...interesting...so much more fun than boys our age."

"For sure," Rose adds. "God boys can be dumb. They're so simple."

"So based on that I'm guessing you'll all be skipping the dance with Hamilton school on Friday," you ask, taking a sip of your drink.

"Oh no! We wouldn't miss it!" Margot says. "It's always fun, and it's a guarantee that someone will do something really stupid. Will you be there Dean Hawkfeather?"

"I believe all teachers are chaperoning."

"Does being a chaperone mean that you can't dance?" Cindy asks with a little purr in her voice. "Because I'd certainly save a dance for you. And the other men too."

"Mmmmm, you know it," Margot adds with a wink. "And I bet all four of you can dance really well. I'm looking forward to doing all of you...dancing with you I mean." There's a little chorus of giggles at Margot's deliberate misspeak.

"We shouldn't tease the Dean," Chanel says quietly, looking at you with serious eyes. "He's a good man, and he served his country, and now he's here doing his best for us. Sorry for my friends behaviour, Dean Hawkfeather. They just get carried away sometimes."

"Oh the Dean knows we're not serious," Rose says, giving Chanel a hug around the shoulders. "We just like to tease. Come on Chanel, cheer up. We're going to finish up here and go to a movie. Don't let some stupid pranks get you down like this. Will you join us for a movie Dean?"

"No, but thanks for asking. I should be going. Thanks for the drink Miss Danton. I assume one of your friends can give you a ride back to school."

"Yes, but it won't be as much fun as the ride I got here," she laughs, standing and giving you a hug. "Thanks again Dean. You really are a knight in shining armour." There are a chorus of goodbyes as you leave the patio stepping onto the street and onto your bike. The girls watch as you roll it off the stand and kick it to life, exchanging giggling chatter with each other as they wave flirtatious farewells.
