Touch Me While I Taste You

Chapter 7

Arabella Rivera 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There were only two things that made my heart skip a beat. One, spiders and two, my favorite show airing a new episode. But now staring at Haiden, I could not help but question the skipping of my heart. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I blamed the anger from earlier, it couldn’t be more or less than that. It had to be. 

 

 

 

 

“Arabella.” A soft feminine voice called out to get my attention. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But strangely my eyes seemed to be glued to the brown-eyed boy a small distance away from me. He and a couple of friends of his were seated at the very back of his truck. They were laughing and chatting loudly. Yet his eyes seemed to not want to stray away from me just like my own was denying me. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A gentle smack to his shoulder from a ginger-haired girl has his attention snapping away from me, not before he winks. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“What the hell was that?!” 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One, two, three shakes on the shoulder had my head shifting to the wide-eyed blonde with the expression of wonder altering her once cheerful face. Her over shiny glossy lips parted as she darted her baby-blue eyes from Haiden and I. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I shifted on my feet, gripping the strap of the bag a little tighter than necessary. “What?” I turned around and prayed for one of her worshippers to take her attention away from me. I felt like an ant under a microscope and I hated it. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hands grip my shoulders and forced me to whirl around to face her. Her eyes are bulging out so much that I feared it would pop out of its sockets. Gwen shook my shoulder and looked at me in a way that screamed ‘have you gone officially nuts?’. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Haiden Cross.” She murmurs faintly with the look of being dumbfounded. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

shook out of her hold and fixed the bag strap on my shoulder. “What about him?” I asked with a casual shrug. It must have been in my head but I swore the chatter around ceased.
