The cold water had stilled around my body as the feeling of a chilly breeze created goosebumps on my skin as I was lifted out of the tub. My eyes wavered as I was met by a shirtless Ethan looking down at me. Arms enveloped me in warmth as I snuggled my head into the crevice of his neck, reveling the heat from his body. Releasing me from his hold, I felt cold once again as I wrapped myself in a towel while our eyes held each others gazes. He gave me a boyish grin as he stroked his chin cheekily, his eyes hungrily raking my exposed legs.

"Don't think of it", I said to him, smacking his butt as I exited the bathroom.

Things are going to change ...they will never be the same

And I had made peace with that. I had to if I wanted things to work. It's not like Ethan is like "HIM".

My heart has only been broken once and because of him, a part of it will always be broken. He didn't deserve me , but I still gave him a chance. I gave him all the capacity of breath my lungs could contain and he blew it.

I need to accept it. I need to move on.

His body might have moved on, but I know his mind still latches onto my memories...

AN: I'm so sorry for the delay. I have been in a very tough space lately and have not been able to write the same. Because of this teaser, the story will continue with Lulu's past and her issues that she has dealt with. I know that many of you have been waiting and I am so excited to show you something different and hopefully you will enjoy it. Nothing better than writing about the truth. I love you guys so much and thank you for the support and for your patience. Almost 8k reads!!💕💕
