I like him. I really like him. The feelings he gives me how my heart races around him. The look he gives me when we're together.
I can't hide that fact. It seems as if everyone knows but him.
I.Like.
Ethan.
"You like your ice cream?" Ethan asked. He's in town this weekend and wants to spend every moment with me. He's so sweet. I smile just thinking about how sweet he is.
The thought of ever being with Antony Just seemed more unlikely. Besides Ethan really likes me. Antony doesn't. Ethan asked me out. Ethan's my boyfriend, Antony isn't.And I like Ethan,right?"Hay." I look up. Antony?
"Antony." Ethan said coldy.
"Emma." He hugs me. "And Ethan." He clears his throat.
"Mind if I join you?"
"Yeah of course." I smiled as he pulled up a chair.
"Where's your girlfriend?" Ethan asked. "You do have a girlfriend, don't you?"
"She's busy."
"So you go to the ice cream shop alone?"
"What are you a detective?" Antony said with a bit of hostility.
"I'm just saying how coincidental it is that you happen to be here when I'm on a date with my girlfriend." While Ethan didn't take his eyes off of him. I had to try my hardest to not look at him. I know if I start I wouldn't be able to stop.
"Sorry I'll just leave then." Antony glanced at me but I didn't look.
No!
"Ok bye." Ethan obviously didn't like Antony. But I don't care.
Then I watched him walk away. I want to tell him to come back. Apologize about Ethan. Then we could laugh it off.
"Are you ok?" Ethan's voice got me out of my trance.
"Of course." I smiled thinking about Antony wishing he was here.Wrong.
