"Is there a reason you wanted me to hang back?" Ethan asked me, raising an eyebrow. I nod my head and stare him in the eye.
"You hurt him or his family, I will make your life a living hell, you don't know me and I don't know you but if he comes to me once hurt because of you i will personally make sure the last face you see is mine before your in a pine box. Am i understood?'' I asked, staring at him with eye contact unwavering. He smirks and nods his head.
"You're protective of him," he states. "This is the most emotion you have ever shown around me."
"I'm protective of them all, it's my nature, but I want to make sure you understand I stand by my promise to hurt him and you're done," I said slowly so he understood.
"I understand, when are you going to tell him?" he asked. I raise an eyebrow. "When are you going to tell him you might love him?" I glare at him and he smirks.
"Who says I am?"
"The way you look at him a blind man could see that, the way you protect him, the look in your eyes when you think he could be hurt, and the way he anchors you," he said simply. Damn, I'm easy to read when it comes to Jax.
"You're right, but I won't tell him, he doesn't need all the shit that comes with me," I said.
"You mean the kids he loves, the bullshit in your life that he wants to fix, or that you feel like you're not worthy of his love?" he asked. I raise an eyebrow at the last part. He nods and smiles softly. "I have that look when I look at him, his sister, and his mother. I'm not worthy of any love those 3 may give me because I broke them. But you didn't break him, you saved him, just as he did to you... don't let your fears stop you from a life of happiness, you will regret it forever."
"Speaking from experience?"
"More than you know little one, you're a strong woman who has proven that even broken people can heal, but it is always nice to have someone who backs you through it all. That is what he has been doing because he is in love with you like he has loved you over many past lives," he said, smiling at me. I let my guard break and chuckle and smile back at him.
"I still hate you, but maybe a little less now," I said laughing. He smiles and shakes his head.
"No hate me, you hating me is what is making my son think about giving me a chance," he said smiling.
"You know?" I asked , laughing. He nods.
"He doesn't have a good poker face for me, never has and never will," he said. I nod my head and smile softly.
"I'm going to tell him," I said simply.
"Now?" he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah why the hell not?" I asked. Ethan laughs and nods his head.
"Go show him up, because he doesn't have the balls to admit it.'' I laugh and start running towards where I left him last. I saw everyone crowded around him and groaned.
