MACON'S POV
i sat in my room with alyssa propped up next to me, she scrolled through her phone while i just looked up at the ceiling while my legs dangled off the bed. ethan and i were going out tonight for the first time ever so i sat there a nervous wreck while overthinking about what may or may not happen.
my phone rang on my nightstand causing both alyssa and i to look up. i quickly picked it up and looked at the bright screen, confused as to why arwynns name popped up.
i hesitantly pressed the talk button and raised the phone to my hear, intrigued by what she was about to say.
"hello?" i ask, falling back down onto the soft material of my bed.
"hey." arwynn responds.
i look to the corner of my room awkwardly, biting my lip as i try to think of something to say.
"what's up?" i decide to ask, realizing just how much i missed arwynns presence as i glanced over to my dresser, a few of her belongings lying on the top.
"nothing really." arwynn responds, "uh, what about you?"
could this get anymore awkward?
"about the same." i respond, smiling lightly to myself.
"i miss you mac" arwynn confesses, followed by a sigh.
"i miss you too," i say truthfully.
"anyways, how's uh, how's ethan?" she asks, perking up.
"oh my gosh, lemme tell you." i begin.
the rest of the day was spent catching up with arwynn as i told her about grayson and i's project, ethan catching us kissing, and alyssa's sticky situation with her brother.
and she told me that as far as she knew, evan had been kicked out. she also told me grayson sucked in bed and we both laughed because the characteristic seemed to fit his demeanor perfectly. he was too nice.
we sat there talking for hours until alyssa and i grew tired, and it felt good to set everything aside and get back to how things used to be.
arwynn wasn't evil, she was confused and lost, and she was also my best friend and nothing could keep us apart for long. we didn't get all bitchy over the grayson thing and it seemed to be like old times.
grayson doing his thing.
ethan and i doing ours while arwynn conveniently tags along.
but then there was a crazy, hormonal pregnant alyssa that i seemed to grow a weird liking for as the days went on.
we found out it was a girl, and alyssa almost cried because she was so excited, and she decided to make her addison. or call her 'addi' for short.
alyssa had addi elizabeth on august 18th at 9:06 pm. and everyone all seemed to forget about evan and alyssa's sadness as we watched her hold her little girl and flash her the brightest and biggest smile the world has ever seen.
ethan stood by my side as i looked at her in the nursery and smiled to myself, wondering how this little girl could bring so much light into alyssa's once dark world single handedly.
"i told you everything was gonna be okay." ethan whispers, squeezing my hand, "everything is always gonna be okay." he repeats, diverting his attention back onto baby addison.
"i know." i whisper, smiling at him.
wellllllll
that's the end.
i didn't wanna put ethan and macon's relationship into this story because that's a little too cliche and i've actually changed the ending so many times :) ending the book like this lets your imagination decide what could've happened with macon and ethan over the time i didn't describe, and what's gonna happen between the two in the future.
i didn't describe their relationship in this book because life is more than just ethan and grayson, and sometimes i fail to realize that. but in all honesty, i've seen so many books written about ethan and grayson that make everything about ethan or grayson, when there's more to life, and in a realistic situation, you're not gonna be 100% focused on ethan or grayson the whole time.
things like friendships will happen, weddings, deaths, stressful situation, and births.
but in the end, for all of us, it's gonna be okay. and if it isn't okay, then it's not the end.
i grew kind of tired of this book and i knew if i went on any longer it'd be really disappointing because first of all the plot i had originally was so cliche it almost makes me puke.
but anyways, thank you for reading.
i'm sorry if this was disappointing, oops.
and that was boner :)
