Love Me As I Am novel Chapter 66

A Month Later....

*Laura Point Of View*

"What do you mean by he's caustic?" I asked confused.

"Codic is bitter and shar-"

"He's name is Cody and he is not bitter," I protested.

Me and Gabriel were presently on a date and he kept asking and telling me about Cody behaviour towards me and him together. He doesn't like Cody and Cody doesn't like him.

"You sound like you are on his side. You are arguing with your boyfriend just because of him?" He hissed and I rolled my eyes.

"Oh please! I think I'll have a headache if you don't stop talking," I said and he gave me a pointed look which I ignored.

"Me and Cody are just friends nothing else," I promised and he sighed as he raked his hair.

"Okay. I believe you," he smiled and I returned it.

"Now can we go. This place is a little restricted. I want to stretch my legs," I groaned and buried my head on the table.

"It's not restricted, you are just not used to it," he stated and I raised my head to stare at him.

"Don't give me that look," he said, looking away.

"What look?" I asked with a confused expression when I was nothing close to that.

"Okay, we'll go," he blurted out forcefully as he broke our gaze.

"Better!" I grinned as we stood up and he led me outside.

"Now I can feel the wind on my skin and let it take me anywhere," I stated dramatically, when we stepped out of the café.

"Oh! So you won't let me take you anywhere of my choice but you would love the wind to do that?" He cocked an eyebrow at me and I rolled my eyes.

"I was feeling restricted and home sick. Don't blame me!" I retorted, my hands held high in surrender.

"Okay then, since I don't want trouble. I'll take you home," he shrugged.

"Seriously?" I narrowed my eyes at him and he sighed.

"Or we go get some ice cream," he suggested and I smiled.

"Now you are being a good boyfriend," I cooed and he smiled but I wasn't done yet.

"After that we can go shopping if you want to be a great boyfriend," I smirked and he frowned. "But you still have a long way to go to be the best.."

I laughed. I have been trying my best to annoy him these days. I know, I know. I shouldn't act like this, but, it's fun..... What is wrong with me?
