Ethan's POV
I decided to take Selena to go eat one of her favorite things. Ramen noodles.
We ended up taking the metro instead of her car. I blindfolded her so she wouldn't know where we were going or who we were going to see. Everybody on the train was looking at us crazy, of course. But I didn't mind it.
"Man, where are we going?" Selena looked at me, with a straight face.
"You'll see.." I smiled, knowing she couldn't see me smiling.
Once we got to our stop, I helped Selena off the train. I made sure she kept her blindfold on the whole time while I guided her towards the Ramen Noodle restaurant.
As soon as we walked inside of the restaurant, I saw Diego sitting at one of the table towards the right.
"Ok, take your blindfold off.." I said to Selena with my hand on the small of her back.
She took the blindfold off slowly, once she saw Diego she smiled a little bit but than her smile faded away.
"What are we doing here?" She kept her eyes on Diego.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Diego get up from his seat. He was walking towards us.
"Look, I'm going to leave you guys alone so you can talk things out and everything. I'll see you later Selena." I gave her a little kiss on the cheek and than walked out of restaurant.
Selena and I sat down at the table I was sitting at before she got here. I was nervous, my hands were sweaty and I was shaking a little bit because of my anxiety. I took a quick sip of my water, than closed my eyes for a second and put my hands over my face.
I slid my hands away from my face, still with my eyes closed.
"I'm sorry I left the way I did last night. It's just, I really didn't mean to hurt you. But right now you're so broken that I'm scared to fall in love with you. I like you a lot, and I am in love with you. I'm just scared you're going to do me like every other girl has." I put my hand over hers, which is on the table.
The waiter comes towards the table, of course it's a guy taking our order.
"Hi, my name is Jace. I'll be taking your order today. Are you guys ready?" He said, all smiley and giggly.
You could tell he was gay from his body language and the tone in his voice.
"Um, yeah. I'll just have the regular, no eggs in it please." Selena replies with a smile.
"I'll have the same thing as her." Selena and I both hand the guy our menus.
I wait for him to be far enough to where he can't hear us so I can start talking to Selena again.
Before I could open my mouth, Selena decides to talk.
"Diego, I understand where you're coming from. But guess what? I've been through some shit to where I had to teach myself to be strong. You and I both have the same fears. I've had to take anxiety and depression medication for years, and look at me. I'm still not better. Yeah I might be a little more confident, but that doesn't mean shit. I'm scared about you cheating, lying, manipulating me, shit betraying me. You have to understand that. I yelled at you because I love you. You were suppose to be different, Diego." She removed her hand from under mine.
"I shouldn't have done what I did. I seriously regret it, but I want to make it up to you." I gave her a soft smile.
Our food came a couple minutes later. We ate, quietly and had short conversations here and there.
"Ugh.. I'm so full." Selena groaned, taking a sip of her water.
I just laughed at her. When the waiter brought us the bill, I payed for our food.
"Ready?" I put a tip on the table.
Selena nodded in response. Her and I walked out, with our hands intertwined.
"Where to?" I asked, looking down at her.
She didn't say anything to me, she just pulled me towards this Lego store.
"Come on.." She said, pulling my arm.
This is one of the reasons why I loved her, because she was still a child at heart and no matter what person she was with that would never change. Nobody could change the person she was unless they broke her enough.
We spent about 30 minutes in the lego store than walked towards the subway.
"Thank you, Diego." She gave me a little kiss on the cheek.
I looked at her and smiled.

1 hour later
We got to Selena's apartment about 30 minutes ago. Both of us decided on eating a whole bunch of snacks and watching a movie together.
Ethan was here, but he just stayed in his room the whole time. He told me how he felt about Selena. I understood how he felt about her because I felt the same way. I just wanted her to be happy with herself and who she decided on being with.
Selena wanted to watch Stand By Me which was one of her all time favorite movies from the 80's.
In the middle of the movie, I decided to put my hand on Selena's thigh a little bit above her knee. She moved it a higher and higher every couple of seconds.
"You tryna get freaky?" I whispered in her ear.
I could tell my words made her nervous, but they also made her melt because she wanted it.
