The Power of the Expiration Date [Completed]

Chapter 14

ISA POINT OF VIEW
We're in the car and Ethan still hasn't told me what we're doing. I keep asking him every five minutes and he wouldn't answer. I'm surprise though: he never once complained about me repeatedly asking him.

We stop in front of a mall. "The mall! Why are we here?" I didn't know I mind speaked it until he responded "you'll find out." Snap, I opened. Quick block him out!

"Isa, are you okay?" I grab his hand "never felt better." Liar. Great, now he's on to me. "Perfect let's go. Today there's so much to do." Did he seriously didn't catch on?
....
We stop at "Gracies." I love this place it has the cutest fashion trends not that I've been here, but I glance every once in a while. "Go on. Chose whatever you want. Come find me when your done." He serious?! "Why the sudden change in heart?" It's true he seems different nicer to me. "Hurry up before I change my mind we don't have all day." I hug him and he hugs me back. "Thank you, I'll try not to be long." He smiles "you better not. Time running out. Tick tock."

I run in without looking back at him hoping he didn't see my face expression that would give away everything. Why would he say that those two haunting words Zane said "tick tock."
I know time running out that doesn't mean you had to say it.

He doesn't know about the end of this month remember?

I know, but still...
...........
I spent two hours picking and throwing out outfits. I'm done! Why hasn't Ethan asked for me yet? Is he in trouble? Did he somehow saw Zane and try tracking him down? Is he mad that I didn't tell him? That is if he knows which he doesn't, right? Does he care about me?

Stop! Everything fine...

"Ethan you were waiting out of the fitting room the entire time?" He looks up and back down at his book. "Obviously, and this book appeared out of no where, right?" He joked as a smile forms. Why is he smiling? Why is it that every time he smiles it makes me want to smile? I have to admit I love everyone smiles and laughs, but Ethan...

"What are you thinking about in that pretty head of yours. Is it me?" He leans closer playfully and I push him back. He starts laughing. "Yeah, you wish." I couldn't help it. Everytime he laughs or smiles it makes me do the same thing. I have to admit I'm going to miss him. His laughs, smiles, his jokes...

"Wow, that's a lot I don't know if I have enough for that Isa." He said it so seriously, but he's right. I got a lot and for what? A month. "You're right sorry I got carried away it was my first time shopping..." I stop when he starts laughing again even louder than before. Ugh, Ethan this better not... "I was just kidding you can get whatever you want." Be a joke. "Ugh, Ethan I thought you were serious. How do you do it? I try to be serious and I just break down laughing...because of you. Your always laughing that's why I can't be serious..." He leans closer "ah, I make you laugh, huh?" I roll my eyes "I think you know that answer. Anywho let's hurry up and go back home to play soccer." I turn away from him walking to the register, but I can still feel him smiling at me.

The final price was a hundred dollars I feel bad, that's a lot, but that was a pretty good deal nonetheless. "Okay let's go we have a few more stops to go before soccer." I drop the bags. "There's more?!" He quickly picks them up with one hand and grabs my hand with the other. "Yes, let's go."
...
After 15 minutes we stop in front of "Prom 4 Us." What? "Ethan no offense, but no one is going to believe your a high school student when you crash that prom." I teased. He just smiles back. "It's for you as well." Should I have said 'I'm too old as well?' "Okay, tell me what's going on."
