"I'm fine with that actually. Celeste and I don't have anything going on. It's just that Gary is quite possessive and unreasonable compared to me. Are you sure you want to provoke him?" Ernest smiled faintly as he spoke to Leah.
Leah was shocked. However, she quickly recovered and said, "Since I'm your girlfriend, aren't you going to protect me?"
Leah asked that question to see what Ernest would say.
"Are you admitting that you're my girlfriend?" asked Ernest, with a bigger smile on his face.
Leah paused and kicked herself internally. She'd literally dug her own grave with that question. She lowered her gaze and muttered, "It's not like I have any other man."
"Are you agreeing to us getting back together?" Ernest asked.
Leah paused before she took a deep breath and nodded. Then, she looked into Ernest's eyes.
He extended his arms outward, and Leah flung herself into them. She wrapped her legs around Ernest's waist as they kissed passionately.
