Reveal Yourself To Me

Chapter 16♡

Nora's Pov

I sat at a sushi restaurant, waiting for Layla to arrive for our girl's night. We don't hang out as much as we used to so we figured why not have a girl's night out.

The first time I met Layla was at the bookstore.

I already hit it off with her by then but I didn't know she was interested in Bexon until he came to drop off my Chinese food, her eyes were in a heart shape form and she was breathing unsettlingly fast.

I encouraged her to tell Bex how she felt and ask him out.

She knows his backstory where he was a straight-on fuck boy in high school and campus but it wasn't as bad as high school.

Layla was in a different school than Bexon and I and we came together when we met on campus, I didn't know Bex existed until he recognized me in the parking lot.

I thought he was some weirdo because he refused to let me leave, who does that?

Anyway, Layla still wanted to give it a go since it's a "now or never" for her. She asked him out and here they are five years later.

They have had their ups and downs but never have they once broken up, they always found out the problem and worked it out together then moved forward by building a healthier relationship over the years and months they spent together.

It's the cutest thing but the most disgusting thing. They rubbed their love in my face many times, trust me when I say, it's not fun.

"Hey Hey Hey Nora-beam!", I looked up from staring at my shoes and my eyes made contact with my favorite girlfriend in the world.

She wore a short, light blue dress with white heels and her red hair was tied in a bun but she left a few strands to fall on her small face.

Layla has always been the one to get clothing advice from, she has an amazing fashion sense.

That would make a point since she's studying to be a fashion designer. SSU College, aka. "Study Smart University College" provides a lot of classes and activities, it's honestly crazy.

They deserve the world.

"Hey Layls-laser," I rose to hug her back and she squeezed me tightly, nearly making me throw up my lungs. "Layls, I- I ca-can't breathe!", She hurriedly let me go and apologized for hugging me in such a death grip.

I wonder what Bexon goes through...

"It's fine Layls, do you want to have a drink first, drink while eating or eat then have a drink?" I watched as she sat down and looked at the menu, contemplating the choices I gave her.

"How about we drink while eating, I'm starving," I laughed as she caressed her stomach and pouted.

I agreed and we took our menus in hand and began reading the options.

I decided on Ehōmaki while Layla picked Futomaki. We changed our minds with regards to drinking while eating and settled on eating then drinking since we had a lot of catching up to do.

While we waited for our food, we talked a little about her and Bexon's relationship.

"So Layls, is Bexon treating you well? I don't need to yank his balls and cut them off anytime soon?", I connected my fingers and rested my chin on top of it, putting my weight on my elbows while smiling sweetly at Layla's rolling eyes.

"No, I'm sorry Nora-beam but he's been such a sweetheart lately, he's been watching Barbie movies with me and making breakfast in bed, can you believe that?", My jaw dropped, I'm surprised a fly didn't find its way into my mouth from how long my mouth stayed open.
