Hating Emilia

14

-Emilia Diaz-

Ethan bought me that gift. Ethan. Bought me. That gift.

I've been trying to process it since last night, when my alarm goes off I turn it off and get up going to get ready

I decided to put on a skirt with stockings and a sweater, I do my skin care and grab out my Mary Jane shoes

I do light makeup and put my jewelry in, I fix my septum ring since it looks a bit crooked and put my stuff in my bag.

˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

I'm at my locker putting some books in, still thinking about what Ethan said last night.

I can't believe he bought me a birthday present. Or that he paid attention to what I liked.

I go to play with my necklace but my heart drops when I don't feel it. I lost it. I lost my dove necklace.

I grab my bag and look through it, shoving papers out of the way, books, folders looking for the dove but I can't find it.

Where is it? I thought I had it this morning? Didn't I put it on?

Tears cover my vision as I panic looking for it, "where is it?" I whisper to myself "Emilia?" I hear a voice, my head whips around and I see Ethan

"Are you okay? I've been calling your name for a while?" He says, I swallow the lump in my throat and shake my head.

I go to open my mouth but I can't say anything, I'm upset with myself because I lost the necklace.

"What's wrong, Emilia?" He asked walking closer to me, Ethan tilts his head and looks at me, I push a strand of hair back, bite my lip and blink the tears away the best I could

"I- I lost it.." I say, he tilts his head "lost what?" He asked I inhale heavily "my necklace."

"I lost it."

I turn my head away when I feel a tear fall "you didn't lose anything?" He says, I stare at Ethan confused.

He grabs something out of his jacket pocket.

Gold chain, and a dove pendant on it.

My eyes widened "you found it." I say Ethan nods his head, hands me the necklace and I stare at it.

"It's okay, little dove."

I blink hearing what Ethan called me, before staring at him "what did you call me?" I asked he gave me his usual grin "I called you 'little dove' I believe." He said giving me his usual grin

I smile this time "can you please put the necklace on for me?" I ask, Ethan nodded I hand him the necklace

I turn my back to him, and hold my hair up, I feel the chain on me, his fingers graze the back of my neck and I force myself to not inhale.

I hold my breath for some reason, I feel Ethan's hands move away from me "there." He said, I let go of my hair and smile at him finally breathing

I turn towards him "thank you, where was it?" I asked "it fell off in my car" he tells me and I nodded

"Oh, when do you want your jersey back?" I asked him Ethan shrugged "you can keep it." He said walking away

I stand there surprised, so Ethan bought me that gift, he found my necklace and now calls me 'little dove' and now said I can keep his jersey?

I mean, it was comfortable. True. It really was comfortable- anyways that's not the point.

The point is he's done nice things. For me and I don't know why, if there's a reason, if he's just doing it to do it.
