I pull away from Ethan and I look at the smile on his face.

"Now can we go?"

"Now we can go." He smiles putting me down.

We run to the car and we buckle ourselves in. We make our way home in the pouring rain. Ethan had his hand in mine and his other hand on the wheel.

When we get home, we put on some dry clothes and sit on the couch. Ethan put a movie on and he brought me into his arms.

- the next day -

"That's the one." My mom states.

"I don't like it." I groan.

"Well-"

"Oh no." I say. "I forgot it's your wedding, not mine." I roll my eyes.

My mom gave me a glare as she looked at the dress. "You look beautiful."

I look in the mirror and I stare at the dress. The dress had made me realise that it was so close. In only a week I will be marrying him. And I didn't want to because I knew he didn't love me.

I try to hold back my tears. "Okay," I whisper. "Lets go."

I say storming into the changing room and changing into my clothes. I get out handing my mom the dress. We pay for the dress and we make our way to the car. My mom dropped me off home and I slam the door shut making my way inside.

I get out my key and I open up the house.

"You're home early." Ethan stated giving me a kiss on the cheek.

"Yeah." I say.

He looked at me weirdly. "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." I say. "I'm just-I'm going to bed."

"It's only 4pm." He says with a frown.

"I don't feel good." I state holding back the tears that were soon to come.

"Kendall-"

"I just want to go to bed!" I shout, reaching the top of the stairs.

Ethan's P.O.V

I go to the kitchen and I grab my phone. I dial Grayson's number.

"What do you want?" He asked jokingly.

"I'm bored." I state. "Lets go get pizza."

"I can't." Gray groaned. "Mom wants me to help with wedding shit. Shouldn't you be doing this?"

"Mom says I should be spending time with Kendall." I say.

"You have the rest of your life to spend with her." Grayson laughed.

"I know, I know."

"How is it?"

I smile and I nod. "It's good." I say. "Really good, we're getting a long much better now. I think I'm really into her."

"Really?" Grayson asked. "You always bitched about her."

I laugh. "No, she's cool."

"And what about Sarah?"

"I'm getting married soon. I've gotten over it."

"That's good E."

"It is."

"Well, I have to go. Mom's getting mad."

"That's all good, talk to you later."

I hang up and I go upstairs to check on Kendall. She was fast asleep. I lay down next to her and I run my fingers through her hair. I smile at the sight of her as I kissed her forehead.
