Chapter 148: Excessive PDA

Excessive PDA...

That’s exactly what was being displayed before Lillian as she sat in a restaurant with Aria and Gabriel.

Her eyes twitched in annoyance as she watched Aria practically feed Gabriel a spoonful of dessert like they were in some cheesy romance commercial.

"Babe, you have to try this," Aria said, her voice dripping with affection. "It’s so good."

Gabriel chuckled softly, leaning in obediently as she guided the spoon toward his mouth. "You know, I could just order my own, right?"

"But then it wouldn’t taste as sweet," Aria replied with a wink.

Lillian’s soul nearly left her body.

She dropped her fork on the table with a bit too much force as she stared at the pair, "You two do realize we’re I’m still here, right?" she finally said, trying to keep her tone calm—and failing miserably.

Aria, she expected this from, since that’s basically how she was, but Gabriel?

He now seemed like a puppy compared to when they first met. Lillian knew she should’ve stayed back in the hotel room, reviewing the docs instead of being subjected to this.

Hell, Aria didn’t even look guilty. "Public affection is healthy for relationships, Lil. You should try it sometime."

"Besides," she added, "you’re just jealous that you don’t get to be this lovey dovey with your dear Ethan."

"W-what do you mean?" Lillian stuttered out, "Ethan and I are not dating....a-and even if we are, we’re both too busy to waste time spoon-feeding each other dessert in public!"

"Is that so?" Aria gave her a knowing look, "then I guess you also don’t mind him living happily ever after with a certain competition of yours, right."

"I—" she was at a loss for words to say, she knew anything she said right now would just be used against, so she chose to be silent....which was also used against her.

"Lil, your ears are turning pink," Aria pointed out, chuckling softly.

Lillian groaned and buried her face in her hands. "You’re insufferable."

"Admit it," Aria said, nudging her. "You’re jealous."

"I’m not."

"You so are."

Gabriel tried to hide his laughter behind a polite cough, though the corners of his mouth betrayed him. "You two remind me of my younger sisters," he said lightly, "always bickering, but inseparable."

Aria beamed. "See? He gets it."

"No he doesn’t," Lillian said. "Besides, I just don’t want to be subjected to this much PDA."

Aria chuckled, resting her chin in her hand. "Come on, you have to admit, you wish you and Ethan were in the same position."

Lillian wanted to deny but she couldn’t, so she used her right to remain silent.... But Aria still wasn’t done yet as she added,

"Besides, You can’t see a face as adorable as this and not want to munch on it." She pointed at Gabriel’s face.

"Adorable?" Lillian repeated, her eyes twitching. "He’s a six-foot-two doctor, Aria, not a golden retriever."

"Exactly," Aria grinned, nudging Gabriel with her elbow. "A tall golden retriever."

"I’m really sorry about her, Ms Hayes," Gabriel said, finally suppressing the urge to laugh.

"Don’t worry about it," Lillian replied, "I’ve been dealing with her for years now, so I know her antics."

"Antics?" Aria gasped, feigning offense. "Excuse you, these ’antics’ are what keep your boring life interesting."

"Unfortunately," Lillian muttered, letting out a sigh.

"I see," Gabriel nodded in understanding.

His new girlfriend....was pretty energetic to say the least but he had somehow come to like it in just a week and even he didn’t fully understand how.

When they first met, he regarded her flirting as just a joke but he soon found out exactly how serious she was when she returned a month later.

From then on he felt like he had been strapped onto a speeding train as their relationship moved faster than anything he had ever experienced.

Did he hate it?

Not in the least bit, Aria was chaotic, yes, but she was also impossible to ignore and that was what pulled him to her.

She had this uncanny ability to pull him out of his shell and into her rhythm, his previous structured life had flipped upside down the moment she entered it and he couldn’t let out a single voice of complain.

"You’re getting lost in thoughts again," Aria’s voice pulled him out of his thoughts, "what were you thinking about?"

"You," Gabriel simply said and for just a fraction of a second, Lillian saw a blush appeared on Aria’s cheek, though it disappeared as quickly as it appeared and a grin had graced her face again.
