It's awkward, it's all so awkward, the silence, the stares, the quick glances we shoot at each other.
It's all a big mess, we try to ignore each other at least until Ethan's mom won't come to pick-up Sabrina and Joseph.
And right before leaving, Sabrina walks up to me and embraces me in her arms. She's happy that I was here. She tells me that I make her brother happy and that makes her happy. She tells me that we were made for each other and I thank her, I don't know what else to say. "No thank you" she whispers and holds me tightly against her chest.
I am sitting on a stool and I wave my hand goodbye to Joseph and Sabrina as Etha is behind the counter standing up and watching them leave. Once the door closes behind them we both sigh in relief. He is behind me watching me, staring at me, studying me.
"Do you regret coming?" he asks me and I roll my eyes annoyed by him. "Do we need to have this conversation now?" I ask and he nods, placing his arms over his chest. "Fine, maybe I regret coming, because I don't like you." "yeah i gather that" i roll my eyes and stand up leaning against the counter in front of him so that I'm now facing him instead of having him behind me. "You are a jerk" I say and he rolls his eyes at me.
He steps towards me and blocks me by placing his arms on both sides of me, I look up at him and he is grinning. "I told you once and i don't like repeating myself Veronica, do not call me a jerk. Understood?" His tone of voice is quite calm, but his it is actually a bit more sexy than usual. I can feel my legs stop and I go pudding, I'm melting. Goosebumps form all over my skin as I nod. "Words darling" he demands and I gulp, trying to open my mouth. I'm so turned on right now it disgust me.
"Yes i understood"
"good girl"
Fuck.
Me.
I am disgusting!
I should hate this guy and now all I'm hoping is for him to fuck the shit out of me.
Good girl
Good girl
Good girl
These 2 words keep repeating in my mind over and over again, he has said it to me a couple of times but I want him to say it to me so much that I'll forget what any other word sounds like, how any other word can be spoken. I close my eyes and exhale a deep and long breath, my eyes feel tired and heavy and once I open them I see that Ethan is now again in front of me.
He is grinning like an idiot, which makes me grin like an idiot.
I am an idiot, that's what I ended up becoming because of him. "Is tonight the cooking thing?" i ask trying to make my mind move from him and his being a sex god. "Yes" he responds and I nod trying to view myself cooking with four italian women judging me. He notices that I'm anxious. "It's fine Veronica, just grab the cutting board and cut zucchini, you're good at that" he says to reassure me, but he says it with a big smile on his face that makes me shrug and chuckle just a little bit.
