Love Me As I Am novel Chapter 30

Laura POV

I was a bit taken aback and a little scared as I watched Gabriel who was smiling and coming closer.

Every step he took made my heart beat increased and I couldn't help but smile as he sat down close to me.

"I see you missed me," He said and winked at me. I suddenly snapped out of my craziness.

"Actually no, can you please stand up, that seat is for Nelly," I said and his face fell.

"Oh, sorry," He said as he stood up "I just wanted to..." He stuttered, "Er, you called me why? "He asked puzzled.

"It was a mistake, I butt dialed you," I said after my search for an answer.

"Ohh," He said as his smile fanished, "What are you doing here anyways," He asked curiously.

"This is my new class," I said and he smiled, "Wow that's great, you finally took my advice."

"Er, Gabriel, I don't want to be rude but can you just let me be alone for a while?" i asked letting out a small smile.

He should leave already.

He's making me feel weird.

"Okay, I'll be over there. See you later," He winked as he strolled to his seat..

Ugh! I thought I told him to leave me alone and don't talk to me ever again.

I couldn't even say that to his face again.

I want to apologize but he should do that first.

I know that I am not at fault so it's his calling.

I unzipped my bag and brought out some sweets and my history note beside it. I zipped my bag back, opened my book and started reading.

The feeling of me being watched was now present.

I looked around and caught the person who was staring intensely at me.

My heart beating started to increase again and I found myself lost in his eyes as he stared at me and smiled.

His gorgeous smile of his kept me captive and I found myself looking at his lips, with a feeling to stand up from where I was right now and kiss him on those lips.

It took all the courage in me not to do that and to just say that.

God what is wrong with me!

He kept his gaze on me and I couldn't help but feel embarrassed, trying to look away but I just couldn't.

"Hey girl, you came early today," I Nelly say as she and Harper sat down on the two seats beside me, concealing Gabriel from my eyes.

I was happy, that at least I won't stare at him again.

But there's still a part of me that wants to stare at him all day long.

"Who were you staring at like that?" Nelly asked.

"Where's Emma?" I asked.

"Don't try to change the question and you should know that she's a science student," Harper said.

"Oh my gosh, you were staring at Gabriel weren't you," Nelly gasped.

"So can't I stare at someone again?" I bat my eye lashes at her.

"You can, but this stare was different, it was full of love, passion..."

"okay, I think that's enough, I am just glancing through my history book," I said.

"Oh, big word," Harper said and I squeaked my face showing how confused I am.

"Ahat? Aren't we art students we are suppose to use the dictionary more often and 'glancing' is clearly not a big word," I protested.

"I thought that's for science and yeah, it's a big word," Harper said and I rolled my eyes.

"Anyway, I bought you guys something," I smiled as I unzipped my bag and closely brought out the snacks and sweet.

"Wow, they are beautiful," Nelly said and I rolled my eyes at her remark.

These are food not babies or dolls.

"By the way how are you coping in that house," Nelly said and she bit on her candy bar.

"Pretty great."
