saturday afternoon

| ETHAN'S POV |

all week. all week she's been avoiding me. what did i do? we left off on a good foot on monday, suddenly tuesday came around and she wouldn't even look at me. she sat all the way across the fucking room in first block, when she usually sits next to me. the only class i had with her, was ruined.

it seems like ever since the night of the fair, things have been off. eve's parents hate me, grayson just wants eve wrapped around his finger, and alex found out about the bet. now this? you don't even want to know how many texts i've sent her, begging for an answer.

monday, 2:35 pm-me: hey

3:16 pm-me: we didn't talk today..at all

3:59 pm-me: i just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything going on that i should know about

5:56 pm-me: are you okay?

it's saturday now, and i still never got an answer. i'm worried sick about this girl. we aren't even together, but i just care about her and i can't help it.

i flopped on my bed, staring out the window. The small droplets of rain falling made my eyes slowly adjust. The room suddenly flashed as a loud sound rumbled my ears. I laid on my back, still examining the window. My soft bedding cradled me. The lightning left me unaffected as I forced my mind to focus on nothing but the rain. i failed as my mind quickly went back to thinking about her. my thoughts were soon interrupted by a familiar voice entering my room.

grayson opened my door, "hey, remember there's a party tonight." he reminded me, sounding somewhat hesitant.

"mhm." i simply hum, not making eye contact.

"i'm leaving in a few, are you driving with me?" he asked.

"no." i responded, "i'll just meet you there." i looked over to him, finally.

"fine." he breathed, sounding slightly angered as a smirk was plastered across his face.

he's up to something, but my mind is too jumbled to care right now.

| EVE'S POV |

8:00 pm

alex: im sorry about earlier, i was just upset

i felt relief as i read over the text.

me: it's okay, trust me

alex: anyways, there's another party at tyler's tonight...and you're coming with me so don't even try to argue

to be honest, i was completely ready for a party right now. i guess i just need to blow off steam from everything that's happened this week. i haven't spoken to or even looked at ethan, i'm almost scared to. i barely see grayson during school which is a huge relief, otherwise i probably wouldn't of gone at all this week. the whole thing with alex just scared me a bit. i knew grayson was harsh, but i never thought he'd threaten my best friend over something that she hasn't even told me yet. and i knew ethan would never stoop to that level, so why am i so concerned about talking to him?
