Love Me As I Am novel Chapter 31

"Okay why don't you come closer, you're a bit far from me," He said and I stepped closer.

"No, I meant sit closer to me," He said shyly.

"I kinda like the view from there."

"Oh," He said nodding his head.

Now I made him feel sad.

"But you guys can come sit closer to me, like at my front or back?"

"That will be great, help me carry some stuffs," He said and turned to Max and Ricky.

"We are packing to another seat if you don't mind," He said.

"We're cool with it, you want to be closer to your girlfriend, we understand," Ricky said as he stood up and I couldn't help but blush.

Did he indirectly say that me and Gabriel are dating.

But that's not true, but I would love for it to be true.

What?

Okay! Pull your self together Laura.

"He's not my boyfriend," I said.

"He is," Max protested.

"Look, we aren't dating so technically she's not my girlfriend," Gabriel said and I felt somewhat sad but I shook it off.

"You both always think negative, I meant a girl that is your friend, as in girlfriend," Ricky said.

"Oh!" Me and Gabriel said.

"Gosh, I know that Gabriel would wa..." Ricky was saying but Gabriel nudged and said, "Um.. We better go take a seat."

I instantly blushed and smiled at the same time.

I did know what Ricky wanted to say but I acted like I didn't.

They all carried their stuffs and I helped Gabriel carry his while the girls stared at me awkwardly.

"Let's stay behind Laura," Gabriel said and I smiled.

We walked over to a desk and I dropped his stuffs on the desk behind mine, Ricky sat behind Harper and Max behind Nelly.

"Why did you choose here anyway, you could have gone forward," I said.

"Well, it's easy to tickle you from here," he winked and I held myself from blushing and I succeeded.

I walked back to my desk, sat down and turned back to look at Gabriel who winked at me immediately and I felt my cheeks heating up.

I turned not wanting him to see me blushing.

"Hmm, you'll make a perfect wife for him," Nelly whispered in my ears and I shot her a glare but inside I was smiling.

Soon students started trooping in, occupying each desks, I stared down at my history book and resumed my reading until Nelly interrupted by nudging me.

"What?"

"Look who's here," She said and I looked up to see Tammy, Rachel, the BBB girls, Patricia and Rachel's minions all walking in, probably to my direction.

They shot me glares and walked towards me.

"They are all art students," Harper said.

I think I am going to faint.

My enemies are in the same class with me.

I'm in trouble...

They sent me deadly glares as they made way for my desk.
