When Ethan kissed me it was totally uncalled for.

But what was a complete shock was when he said he loved me. I've never thought of Ethan that way.

When he pulled away from the kiss my eyes were wide and I didn't know what to say or do.

So I didn't say anything. I turned around and walked back into the school.

No one can know about the kiss. The rumors that were already being spread will seem true.

That makes me sound like a bad person. It makes me seem like I care more about my reputation than Ethan. Which is completely untrue.

I just can't deal with all the lies and the rumors. I need to keep this a secret for the sake of my mental health.

I haven't talked to Ethan since our kiss. Well actually he has been avoiding me. I've tried to talk to him in person and through texts.

He hasn't responded to one of them and every time he sees me coming up to him he dashes off.

Tonight I will talk to him. His parents and Grayson will be out of the house tonight so I'm going to his house.

Grayson is going to the movies with his friends and I made sure Ethan was going to be there.

His parents have a charity event so they will be out of town for a couple days.
So it's a clear shot for me to talk to him in private.

It's currently 8pm and I'm headed over to his house now. Im five minutes away and not gonna lie I'm kind of nervous.

I pulled into the driveway and shut my car off. The only lights on were his bedroom light and the kitchen light.

I walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. It echoed through the house. I heard him coming down the stairs.

He opened the door. His eyes went wide as they saw me standing there. He was shirtless and his hair was messy.

"What are you doing here?"
He whispered.

Why is he whispering? No one else is home.

I opened my mouth to speak but before I could get a word out a high pitched voice came from the stairs.

"Ethan?"
She said as she fully got down the stairs. She had a black robe on.
Ethans black robe.

He was having sex. The reason he didn't go out was because he was having sex.

The girl came beside Ethan and crossed her arms. She had a mean look on her face.

"And who's this bitch?"
She said raising her eyebrow.

"Clearly this was a mistake."
I said turning around to my car.

"Jasmine wait!"
I heard Ethan say running behind me. I got to my car and as I was about to open the door Ethan grabbed my hand.

I turned towards him. I looked in his eyes and saw hurt in them. A concerned look came upon my face.

"E? Are you okay?"
I asked taking my hand away from the door, fully facing him.

"I'm gonna go Ethan. Please don't call me ever again."
The random girl said while walking out of the house. She was now in her clothes.

I didn't care about her right now. All I cared about was Ethan. He's hurting and all I know is I could be the cause of it.

"Can we talk now?"
He asked motioning his head towards the house. I nodded my head and walked behind him.

We sat on the couch. We were facing each other. He let out a huge huff of air, leaning back onto the couch.

"Fucking hell jaz."
He said with his hands on his face.
Did I do something wrong?

"What did I do?"
I asked causing him to sit up.

"Nothing. You did absolutely nothing."
When he said that it felt like a huge wait was lifted off my shoulders.

"I'm just completely fucking in love with you."
After he said this that weight crashed back down.

"W-what?"
I stuttered out.

"I don't know why you have this control over me. I've never felt this way about anyone."
He told me.

"Ethan I can't."
I said to him. That made me feel awful.

Sadness filled his face. I hurt him even more. I'm the cause of his pain.

"I mean I just can't do this right now. Not with all the rumors about you and I going around the school."
I told him trying not to hurt him even more.

"It's not good from my mental health E. After Nate cheated on me I thought horrible things that I don't want to rethink about."

I felt his large warm hand grab onto my small cold one.

"It's okay jaz. I don't want anything or anyone to hurt you. I just want you to be happy."
He said with a small smile. All I want is for Ethan to be happy but I feel like I'm just making him sad.

"I'm thankful for you E I really am."
I said while I hugged him. He hugged back it felt like he was never gonna let go.

And to be honest...I don't want him to let go.

Maybe I do love this kid.
Or maybe it's just because I just had my heart broken for the first time.

But I do want him in my life.
