Chapter 226: A Girlfriend.

Now that he had said it out loud, she was at a loss for words. She became uncomfortable, wanting to escape, but his grip on her waist was strong. “Don’t run, Lydia; it drives me crazy,” he said. "I am talking about what you want us to do in public, you." She started to find words. “I will hold your hand in public; as time passes, I will hold you in public; in no time, I will kiss you in public,” he said, and she started pushing him off. “It is late; you should go,” she said, and he let go of her. “Can’t I stay here? I liked watching you sleep,” he said. Seeing as she was not as opposed to his words and touch as he had thought, he became brave. For some reason she looked like a bunny when she protested. “When did you see me sleep?” she asked. “How can you forget? The entire university now knows I slept in your tent that night,” he teased, and her eyes rounded into small globes. “Everybody? What do you mean by everybody?” She had not gotten a chance to read the comments before.
