Chapter 21 - "Unexpected Visitor"

Violet Marie's POV

The bright morning sunlight lightly makes contact with my face as my eyes tiredly open.

I blink it off a couple times before looking over at Ethan who was lightly snoring next to me.

His hair was messily covering his face as his light snore filled the silent room.

A smile formed on my face as I saw such sight in front of me.

I plop on my elbows and try my best to get up when I hear a raspy voice call me.

"Morning" Ethan grogily said as he kept his eyes closed.

"Morning" I enthusiastically said as I lightly smiled at him.

"When do you not look beautiful" he comments as he is now wide awake.

A light shade of pink covers my cheeks as I try my best to stop blushing.

"Could say the same to you" I chuckle.

"Come here" he says gesturing over to himself.

I lay back down and rest my head in his chest as his white soft shirt makes it more comfortable.

His heartbeat was soft and mellow and oh so calming.

"I only wish we could stay like this" I say.

"I do too" he whispers as he kisses my forehead lightly.

We stay like this for a moment as his hands play with my hair and my head rests on his chest.

I could stay like this forever.

We enjoyed laying in bed for a while but we decided to go eat and hang around the town square.

Ethan left home, leaving me here to get ready.

"Lover boy stayed over I see" Amelia chuckles as she leans against my door.

"Look who's talking" I respond.

"I was here all night" she lies.

"I heard you leave" I laugh causing her cheeks to turn bright red in embarrassment.

"I always forget you can hear everything" she laughs it off leaving me.

Ethan's POV

I unlock my front door and walk straight in with a smile plastered on my face.

"Well look who we have here" Grayson smirks as he walks downstairs to greet me.

I jokingly roll my eyes and chuckle.

"Its not that late calm down"

"Ethan" he sternly looks at me.

"Okay maybe it is considering I didn't come home, but I couldn't leave" I laugh.
