"What?!"
Matthew chuckled. "Why are you like a crab ready to bite?"
Lilly Rose glared at him. She didn't like that he was describing her like a crab.
"Why? Because I'm being crabby?"
When he threw his head back, laughing out loud, her heart did a somersault and constricted painfully inside her ribcage before pumping blood like crazy, she felt light headed.
Matthew laughing like a mischievous child is not good for her heart. It feels like it's going to burst into tiny pieces at any moment as his laugh reverberates inside the car.
"I didn't think of that. But it's quite funny, don't you think?" He glanced at her, grinning.
She rolled her eyes at him and said nothing.
