Chapter 41 - Dorky Adam (2/2)

”So, what were we talking about?” He asked her, giving her a lopsided smile.

Stella blushed harder at his question. She didn't know what to reply. Though she had said that she would give him a chance but that doesn't mean that they were in a relationship. 'Isn't he supposed to ask me to be his girlfriend?' She thought to herself.

”Sweetheart? What are you thinking about?” Adam brought her back to the present.

”You haven't answered my question.” He reminded her, running his thumb over her swollen lips which had a tinge of red to them.

”It's not like that you have asked me about it.” Stella replied meekly, her fingers toying with his collar button that was not done.

”About what?” Adam was confused by her statement.

”About what you asked me earlier.” She murmured under her breath still concentrating on his collar button as if it was the most interesting thing in the world.

As realization dawned on Adam, his eyebrows shot up. 'Crap.' He scolded himself inwardly for not using his brain for once. 'How can they be in a relationship when he hadn't even proposed to the girl?'

”I am sorry.” He murmured his apology.

”What are you saying sorry for?” Stella asked him in confusion.

”Nothing.” He said with a faint smile. ”Let's go back to the study.” He added, kissing her forehead softly.

”You go ahead I will be there in a few minutes.” She replied to get a nod from him.

Sitting in his chair before the study desk, his mind drifted off to what Stella had said. 'I need to make it up to her.' He was for once thankful to that idiot's blabbering mouth. If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't have realized his mistake.

It wasn't his fault that his mind couldn't work properly whenever she was around. He always forgot to use his brain and acted dorky whenever it came to her.

Thinking about how he should rectify the situation, he picked up his phone that was lying on the table and made a bunch of calls.
