"Do you want to try this one?" Jeffrey asked, showing me a tight black dress with V-neck. 

"The dress looks beautiful, but it's probably expensive" I replied, smiling weakly.

"Emma" Jeffrey warned, cupping my cheek. 

"What?" I asked, looking down at his lips. 

"I took you out to buy you some new stuff, not to fight," He said and shot a serious look at me. 

"I know, but don't use all your money on me" I replied, placing a kiss on his lips. 

"Stop saying that!" He said, pulling away and placing the dress carefully in the shopping basket.

The atmosphere between me and Jeffrey was awkward. I was constantly trying to get eye contact with him, but Jeffrey seemed pissed off.

"Are you mad?" I asked, touching the tips of his long fingers. 

"No, I'm...-" He replied and paused. 

"What?" I asked, stopping him in the middle of the store. 

"I'm just tired" He exclaimed and started walking. 

"Jeffrey, please, wait!" I said as I grabbed his arm. 

"Tell me... please," I said, looking him directly in the eyes.

"I just thought that this was going to be a great day. You know.. me and you shopping and enjoying each others company" He explained. 

"I'm sorry, I totally killed the mood" I whispered, looking down. 

"Don't be sorry," He said with a calm voice, wrapping his arms around me. "I know you earn your own money, but at least let me spoil you once in a while" He whispered, rubbing my back. 

We both pulled away as we heard the sound of camera flashes.

"Jeffrey! Is she your new girlfriend?" A man with a black hat asked, looking at us. 

"Yes... she is" Jeffrey replied.

The man took several pictures of me before Jeffrey stopped him. "Excuse me sir, but we would appreciate some privacy" Jeffrey exclaimed, placing his hand on his expensive camera. 

"Idiot" the journalist mumbled as he walked away.

"That was embarrassing" I sighed, looking at Jeffrey. 

"Why?" He asked and started walking again. 

"I look like an old cheese sandwich today" I laughed.

A cute smile showed up on Jeffrey's dry lips. "You look exactly the way I like," He said, placing a kiss on my forehead.

"Wow, can we eat over there?" I yelled in excitement, pointing at a little cozy restaurant. 

"Sure babe!" Jeffrey said, placing his hand on my hip.

As we entered the restaurant Jeffrey grabbed my ass, and I couldn't help but laugh. "Jeffrey" I warned. 

The waitress looked at me like I was a complete idiot, but I enjoyed Jeffreys company, and I couldn't help but love his little silly actions.

I placed my foot between his legs and he almost knocked over the glasses on the table. 

"OPS" I laughed and smirked at him. 

"Emma, not here!" He said, rubbing my leg under the table. 

"I know" I smiled. 

I loved teasing Jeffrey. His reactions and o-shaped faces could make me laugh for hours.
