Speechless (GRETHAN)

Chapter 28: If I Stay

Grayson Bailey

"Hey baby!",whispers Ethan in my ear and simultaneously placed an unnoticeable kiss on my cheek. "Had a great day?" I nodded yes. I reached for his hand and kissed the back of it. Inter-locking our fingers, we walked to our lockers to place our stuff. "I'm craving some Chipotle today. You down?"

I nodded as I slid my science texts into my locker. I wanted something American, burgers and fries would do the trick. Ethan wanted Chipotle, specifically.

I finally caved and I allowed him to 'win'. It wasn't about winning or losing. It was about love. The things we did for love and I loved this man beyond words. It was more about just selecting a restaurant for a meal. It signified our roles we'd play through our relationship and any relationship in general. Who'd cave more, who was flexible, who was the first to forgive when it came to fights. It wasn't simply about who made more sacrifices but it was about how well we knew each other and it was safe to say that Ethan and I knew each other a great deal. We'd have explored each other's interests. I paid him more attention than he deserved.

I was just whipped for him. I couldn't spend a day without him and it's hard to think I tried to end my life the previous night. I consider myself lucky that I wasn't able to go through with it and Ethan rescued me in time. I thought of him while the sharp metal rested against my skin. After he took me home, Ethan fell asleep, holding me securely in his arms. While he slept, I evaluated my actions and I did obviously conclude that they had very serious consequences.

Right now, Ethan slung his arm over my shoulder and guided me to his car. We settled in and I kept talk to a minimum since I had no phone. Ethan however promised me to buy me a new iPhone after he'd consult his parents. I strayed from the matter.

At lunch, Ethan sat opposite to me and kept a close eye on me while I looked at the other diners, just out of boredom. "Grayson Ethan Dolan, you look so hot in that pink shirt.",spoke Ethan out of nowhere, making me face him. His face rested on his fist while he gaped at me. His words made me examine my clothing. The long-sleeved tee I had on was new. It was pink and white striped and the subtle pattern had me interested. I pulled off the look with faded blue jeans the new pair of boots Ethan got me. He quickly snapped a picture of me.

'You don't look too bad yourself.'

"I'm sure. That's why you let me fuck you."

I reached over the table and slapped a hand over his mouth and then I put a single finger over my lips as if silencing him.

'Someone will hear.'

"Let 'em. They should know who's in charge."

'It's you, Daddy.'

"In that case baby, lemme get beside you." Ethan nudged me further in the booth and he slid in beside me. Our thighs were touching and I dumbly looked down at them. Something about it resonated emotions. His slow and warm hand made its way up my knees to my thigh. He patted the muscle lightly.

"After we come out to my parents today, I want to make sweet and sensual love to you.",he breathed while his hot tongue lapped on my earlobe and my ear piercing. My breath hitched in my chest until it finally left my body in series of shaky breaths.

"I love you Bailey."

Lunch was a great deal of flirts and kisses. Ethan played around with food. He tucked two French fries under his gums and pretended to be a walrus. At one time, he even freaked the waiter out that was assigned to our table. With the fries hanging from his mouth, he clapped his hand and made 'ooohhh ooohh' sounds. The first time he cooed, it came out as an absolutely seductive and loud moan that made 4 diners turn to us. I mentally sighed but I couldn't control my laugh as he pretended to be a walrus. I dropped my half-eaten burger in its wrapper and I began to laugh.
