GoodReadChpater 183 A laugh fell from my lips as his grip around my waist tightened. Of course he hadn't lost his protectiveness over me.
"Does it really matter?". I asked.
"Of course it matters. Out here looking like a f*****g snack". He groaned.
Rolling my eyes I placed my hands against his chest. "I really have missed you".
"I missed you too". As he placed a kiss on the tip of my nose my eyes closed. It wasn't until right now that I realised just how much I missed him.
I still to this day couldn't describe how he madefeel inside. It was a feeling I never wanted to lose. "How you getting home?". He asked.
I opened my eyes and smiled. My stomach filled with butterflies, I loved that he was hand he was here. This was the start of something new, what happened before was in the past and it was tto move on. "No idea". I shrugged. "It's not late is it?".
"Still early babe. How about I take you a drive and we go get something to eat?".
"I don't want to be rude and leave the girls". It was meant to be a girls night and we had hardly seen each other. "We'll meet up with them later. C'mon lettake you for a burger".

"Yes queenie. Anything for you".
"Okay just lettext Alanna". Taking my phone from my purse I noticed she had already text me.
'We left, You need this gal! Party back at Jake's. I have his keys. See you soon. Ax' Lovely.
"They already left". I frowned. "Party back at yours apparently".
"A night cap, not a party. She knows better than to throw a party".
"Morning runs?". I laughed.
"She hates them". He smirked.
"Oh I know".
"Ready to go. Cars out back".
Slipping my hand in his I let him leadout the back door. His truck was parked at the side of the club. Coming to a stop I made a face. How could he drive if he had been drinking? "Something wrong?".
"Haven't you been drinking?". I asked.
"Nah babe haven't touched a drop. You getting in?". He opened the passenger side door for me.
Once inside I clipped my seatbelt into place. It was then that I remembered my rose was still inside. It may not be a big deal but it was the first flower he had ever given me.
"I left my flower inside". I said as he got in the drivers side.
"I'll get you another one". As he started the engine I crossed my arms over my chest. I didn't want another one. I wanted that one. "Do you fancy a walk along the beach once we eat?".
I sighed. I was overreacting, it was just a flower. Why was I getting worked up over a flower? "Babe?".
"Yeah I haven't been to the beach in ages". I smiled.
He stopped the car in front of the club. "You want that flower don't you?".
"Yeah". I didn't think twice about my answer. I wanted that flower because he gave it to me.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Right". He sighed. "Givea minute".
As he disappeared back inside I gazed over at the entrance of the club. The queue didn't look as big as before but there was still a lot of people waiting to get inside. Taking my phone from my purse I frowned at the message I had from an unknown number. I didn't have the number saved but I knew who it was.
And he shouldn't be texting me.
'Yale Miss Wilson.... Have you made your final decision yet?' He sent that and hour ago. Didn't he have anything better to do than text one of his students on a Friday night? I had accepted my offer but I already knew I wasn't going. How could I go when he was here?
Our relationship was already struggling. If I went I know.
for sure it would be over. This was our chance to finally make it work.
Deleting the message I put my phone away as I spotted him I him coming) As he opened the door he placed the rose on my lap before getting in. "Happy?".
"Yes". I smiled.
As he started the car and pulled onto the main road it started to spit with rain. There goes our walk along the En beach. "How's Miss Wilson doing?". He asked.
"She's good, happy. Spending the night with George but she'll be htomorrow if you want to stop by?". "Pretty sure I'm in her bad books right now princess".
A laugh fell from my lips. He wasn't wrong. My gran liked Jake but his behaviour recently was off putting.
