"I want to." She whispers.

As much as I wanted to, and trust me, I really wanted to, I couldn't.

"Megan don't do this." I whisper on her lips.

She slowly backs off. "I'm sorry, I thought that's what you would want." she starts getting up.

"No, I do but I don't want to do it like this, in the school."

She nods and walks towards the doors.

"Shouldn't it be somewhere more thoughtful? Romantic?" I ask.

She stops and turns towards me. "I guess so." She mumbles.

I walk towards her and kiss her forehead. "Come on, I have an idea." I grab her hands and walk out of the café.

MEGAN'S POV
___________

"You brought me to a library?" I state blankly.

"I love reading." Ethan says with a dorky smile on his face. God I loved that smile.

"You know, for a jock you're a real geek." I tease.

"Don't tell anyone, I wouldn't want to ruin my reputation. "He starts to shuffle through the books until he finds what he's looking for. He grabs a book that reads "The Way I Loved You."

"Don't tell me you're a romantic?"

"What's wrong with that?"

"Nothing it's just I saw you as the type that-"

"I'm gonna stop you right there," Ethan interrupts. "You should never judge a book by its cover."

"Ok well I'm pretty sure that book is the title of a Taylor Swift song." I laugh.

"I love her!" Ethan gasps.

"Really?" I ask eagerly.

"No." He blankly states. "Now come on."

He grabs my hand and pulls me towards a couch. He sits down and I lie next to him lying my head on his legs.

He begins to read.

1. I love the way we finish eachother a sentences.

2. I love the way she looks at me.

3. I love the way her eyes shine.

4. I love how she laughs.

He starts to run his hands through my hair.

20 MINUTES LATER
_______________

100. I love the way I just met her an she's already making a impact on my life, every breath she takes, every move she makes, every time she laughs makes me understand what living feels like because she makes life worth living.

He closes the book.

I grab it and open it.

"Ethan there's nothing in here but empty pages." I say looking up at him.

He just smiles and starts to drift to sleep.
