" I love you the more in that I believe you had liked me for my own sake and for nothing else." ~ John Keats

Ethan POV

"This has been on my mind for a very long time. I don't really know how to say it." I ran my fingers through my hair.

"Baby what's wrong?" Savannah said in her sweet, silly voice that just turns me on.

"Are we together? Like are we official or are we just like friends with benefits, but not sexual benefits?"

"Ethan, we are official ok! I thought we made it clear during the dinner fiasco months ago. I'm not going to say I'm in love with you, but I do have strong feelings for you!" She said with her beautiful,bright smile.

"So now I can start calling you Cookie or Savers?" I asked.

"Omg, please don't, I beg of you! Let's come up with some different nicknames. How about I call you Babe?"

I shook my head before responding.

"Hell No! Babe? Are you serious? Babe seems like the nickname that annoying white girls come up with."

"Ok, how about panda?" She said.

I cleared my throat and attempted to have a New Orleans accent. "Oh baby fuck no!"

Savannah bust out laughing, uncontrollably causing diners to look at us funny.

"Who the hell taught you that?" She said crying laughing at this point.

Your brother, he thought I needed to learn "New Orleans" culture.

All she could do was sigh and wipe her tears.

"I got it! What if I call you milk chocolate and you call me white chocolate?" I said and nodded my head.

"That is so lame and weird as shit. It's obvious that we're an interracial couple, we don't need nicknames that state the obvious. What about I call you pooh?"

I thought about it and came to a decision.

"I actually like it and your nickname will be, Lips!"

"Why Lips?" She had a confused look.

"It's sexy and it describes my love for your lips. I love them and they love me."

"What lips are you talking about?" She had a smirk on her face.

"Well obviously I'm not talking about the ones downtown, considering the fact that we haven't did anything yet. I'm totally okay with this waiting thing, but sometimes I do think about your body and what I will totally do to it."

"What will you do?" She said biting her lips and batting her eyelashes.

I could feel my Johnson getting excited and I couldn't embarrass myself in public, so I just blushed.

"You know what? What if I just let you find out later? It can be a surprise." I could tell she knew exactly what she was doing.

"I don't think you're ready for this jelly!" She sang in her soulful voice.

"Have you ever thought about singing as your career?"

"Not really, when I was little Bertha use to make me sing in choir. Then my high school had this glee club that I joined. People always tell me that my voice is amazing, but I can't see myself doing it professionally." She shook her head and took a sip of her tea.
