"Gabriel, calm down. Not here." I muttered under my breath as I clutched his elbow and tugged him out of the classroom corridors.
Curious students gave us inquisitive glances as we passed by the hallway, to the end of the last classroom in the direction of our school's backyard, so that we could talk in peace.
I was afraid that Gabriel would create a disturbance for all of my classmates to see and I wouldn't be able to defend myself from nastier rumors.
Every time Gabriel was near and I had close interactions with him, my name was brought up in every bitch's mouth.
It was a miracle that we even arrived at a secluded garden quickly because Gabriel was acting like a kid in Walmart having a tantrum when his mommy didn't buy him his toys.
I pulled his elbow to move faster and he dragged his feet instead to annoy me further.
Gabriel was heavy as fuck.
