Unknown Book

Chapter 28

I think the reason why he had 'To Kristine Merry Christmas from Santa' on it is because it was my birthday present and that's why he kept a secret from me. I told him "I thought you were cheating on me with another woman and that's why you weren't talking to me." Ethan nodded as if he understood. He was getting me a birthday present and he didn't want me to know about it. But I was still confused about it and I had a piece of paper written with ideas that I came up with and each idea that I came up with I had circled. I was already confused and then I started to feel a little bit sick in the stomach. Ethan looked at me with his brown eyes and said "Hey honey are you feeling okay?" I tried to nod but I felt like I was going to make it worse. Then he placed his hand on my forehead and felt my temperature. He made me get up gently and told me to have a bite to eat. I tried to shake my head in saying no then Ethan got something out of the cupboard and told me to eat whatever it was and then he told me to go to bed. After I had eaten I went straight to bed without the sheets on and I tried to go to sleep without Ethan. I tried to go to sleep but I kept tossing and turning.

Ethan came into the bedroom and stroked my hair helping trying to make me sleep but it wasn't working. Then he called my mother telling her that I was feeling sick in the stomach and told her to come over immediately. Once she walked in the door she headed straight for the bedroom and she told me to lie on my back telling me that she would rub my belly in a circular motion. She told Ethan "If Kristine lies on her side roll her on her back and rub her belly and if she starts sweating grab a bucket and fill it with cold water and use a cloth to get rid of the sweat." He nodded in agreement then my mother left the bedroom and headed for the door. After my mother had left Ethan did what my mother had told him. He went into the laundry and grabbed a bucket and filled it with cold water he grabbed the bucket full of cold water and placed in the bedroom then he headed for the kitchen and grabbed a cloth then he headed back to the bedroom. Ethan dipped the cloth in cold water and used the cloth to get rid of the sweat.

Once he had done that he rolled me on my back and rubbed my belly in a circular motion trying to miss my belly ring when he rubbed my belly most of the sweat had gone. He grabbed the cloth and dipped it in the cold water and placed it on my forehead seeing if that technique would work. Once I had fallen asleep Ethan got up and emptied the bucket of water and threw the cloth in the bucket and came back in the bedroom then he had fallen asleep while looking after me. I woke up and had a shower while I was having a shower I heard Ethan getting up and joining me in the shower. After I got out of the shower I wrapped myself in my towel and got ready for school. I had gotten the car ready for both of us and waited for Ethan to walk out the door. As soon as he walked out the door I got into the car and drove to school. My mouth dropped as soon as I saw Italian exchange students coming out of the bus and I slammed on the brakes hoping I wouldn't hit any of them.

Ethan saw me slam on the brakes of the car and ran over to the car seeing if I was okay. He opened the car door and held out his in assistance. I placed my hand on his and I got out of the car naked?! I woke up sweating and I started to swear in french because I knew all the rude words in french. I got up and I had a late night snack and something to drink and then started thinking why I was dreaming about Italian guys and not Latin. I always knew I loved Latin guys but that was beside the point. "I don't care if this has to take all night I have to figure it out." I said. I decided to put my hair up in a high ponytail. Ethan got up and asked me "Kris why are you up at this time of night pacing backwards and forwards? You know you like doing that in the morning sweetie." He said. I told him "Yes sweetheart I know that but I had a strange dream and I have to figure it out tonight sweets." Ethan nodded and went back to bed.
