honest [e.d]

20

Madison's POV:
We've been laying in his bed for 20 minutes. He's explained and showed me all the messages between him and Alyssa, I'm just happy he was finally honest.

"I'm sorry" I hear him say. "For what?" I ask him turning to face him. "For pushing you away and not giving you a reason, I thought I lost you for good" he says looking down.

I sit up and cup his cheek. "Ethan baby, I forgive you. What you did broke my heart. But now I know why you done it, and whatever she does next we can handle it" I say. He smiles and I kiss his soft lips.

We pull away and I nuzzle into his warm chest. "Can I stay over? I'm already tired from last night" I ask and he nods his head.

"Plus we've got our last two weeks of school, you need your rest" he says and I groan at the mention of hell.

"Can I borrow something to wear? At least a top?" I ask and he gets up from his comfy bed to his dresser.

He takes one of his blue tops out and throws it at me hitting me in the face. "Wow thanks" I say sarcastically before getting up to change.

He undresses and stays in his sweats and goes shirtless. While me on the other hand, I strip to my underwear and put his shirt over the top. It's like a mini dress on my body.

As I'm taking off the remainder of my makeup in his body length mirror he comes close,behind me.

Ethan's hands roam my body and land on my waist. His face goes to my neck and he whispers in my ear. "Am I lucky or what?" And I blush at what he said.

I throw the makeup wipe away in the trash that's by the mirror.

With my fingertips I trace his arms lightly that I'm wrapped in and he starts to kiss my neck. He kisses from the bottom of my neck up to my jawline and leaves a lovebite on the lower half of my neck.

I turn around and look at his beautiful face while my hands cup both his cheeks. "I'm the lucky one" I say.

I am truly blessed to have him.

"But I'm the luckiest" he says leaning down and kisses my lips softy. "Let's get to bed, you look shattered" he says before he pulls me towards his bed and cuddling up to me.

I was finally ready for this dreaded Monday. I didn't put much effort into today's look since it's only school.

I let my hair out of it's braids so it was wavy and I tied it half up half down. My makeup consisted of brows, lashes and a pink lip.

All I wore was my blue washed jeans, my Nike too and a bomber that I stole from Cam's closet. She won't mind since she still at college.

I'm caught out of my gaze when Ethan comes walking out of his restroom calling name. "You ready?" I nod and we head to his black convertible.

"What have we got first period?" I ask as we're buckling ourselves in. "Gym" he says and I roll my eyes.

I love Gym class because I get to do my cheer and it's the only time I get to work on my body. But the thing I hate most about it is seeing Alyssa shake her little ass informs of everyone.

Sometimes I just want to slap some sense into her because she clearly doesn't know how to control a cheer team of 15 girls.

Ethan notices my eye roll and he places his hand on my knee that is bobbing up and down like a yoyo.

"Hey it'll be alright, I won't let her do or say anything to you" he smiles and I let a faint one out too. He says these things but I can't help but think of the worst.

But who can blame me? She literally tried to break my arm 2 months ago.

While he drives us to our dreaded school that is only 10 minutes away from him I decide that it's my only chance to ask him what's been bugging me all morning. I totally forgot to ask him last night.

"So E can I ask you something?" I blurt out and his head turns to my direction. He nods and lets me carry on.

"Okay so does Alyssa know we're like fine again? Like what will she react like if she sees we're together in school?" I ask quietly scared of the answer.

"She might not know, but I'll make sure she does. She doesn't get to control us, no one does, especially her" he says reassuring my thoughts.

"Another thing" I say giggling since I know he hates it when people ask him too many questions. But he knows I just want him to tell me the truth about this situation.

"Why did you and Alyssa kiss at that party?" I ask and turn to face him while he's focussed on the bumpy roads of New Jersey.

"Honestly, I was just jealous ad you and Gabe, so I just released all my anger onto her" he says kind of embarrassed. So he never actually liked her this whole time.

"I just thought it would work to kiss someone that wasn't you but I was wrong" he says looking at me and grabbing my hand.

He slowly brings my knuckles up to his plump lips and kisses them. 'No one could ever top you" he says making me blush.

"Okay so where's all this romantic Ethan come from? What happened" I say giggling and he smirks. "I'm not who I used to be babe, you changed that"
