A walk to remember-G.D.

17

Alia December 18th Thursday.
I sit there thinking about my decisions I look over at the doctor pulling my pills out "Could I leave?" I ask he looks at me and nods "You need to have someone over the age of 18 to come sign you out" he says handing me water with the pills I throw them in my mouth drinking the water he gave me "Okay" I say grabbing my phone calling Grayson he doesn't answer meaning my only other option would be Ethan but do I even want to see him?

Grayson
I called Bria I shouldn't of done that but I felt the need to tell her about Alia I told her my feelings she said she was happy that I'm moving on finally I ignored her when she said that but she helped me ease my feelings she said that if I don't talk to Ethan then he will end up finding out that I like his girlfriend in a bad way which I don't want but then again he would have to know some time.

Ethan
Alia called me and told me that I should stop by the hospital I thought about what she said I know she is mad at me but we are in a relationship so we need to figure things out that's the only way things can even work, I completely understand why she is mad at me and I'm not upset or sad about it but she is being a little dramatic about the Alice thing.

Alia
Ethan walks in the door with a straight face "What's up?" He asks sticking his hands in his coat pocket "You could sign me out" I say playing with my finger nails "Do I want to sign you out" he looks around the room "Ethan please" I shut my eyes "I know that we are going through shit right now but that's life" I tell him he blinks a few times then laughs.

"Your right that's life we go through stuff so why are you so mad at me about Alice I didn't tell her to leave I didn't even want to tell her that you were in here but I had to other wise I wouldn't have been able to see you. Then I stuck up for you cause your bestfriend was being a dick, has he answered your calls texts came to see you no he hasn't I have been here for you why can't you let let me do what I'm supposed to do as a fucking boyfriend" he shouts startling me.

I sit there not knowing what to say "Ethan I just want to go home please" A single tear slips from my eye his eyes soften he sighs in defeat "I'll sign you out but you aren't going home we will stop and get you clothes" he walks out of the room. I sit there waiting for him to come back.

After a few minutes Ethan came back he had a blanket in his hands "You don't have no clothes to put on so I just got a blanket from my car that you can wrap around you until we get you clothes" he says the doctor comes in the room undoing all of the cords and shit "When you come out just sign the sign out sheet we need your signature" he explains walking out "Come on" Ethan pulls me to my feet I feel as if I can't walk but I soon get back to it.

I walk in the bathroom pulling the hospital dress off of me wrapping the blanket around my body Ethan walks in picking me up "Ethan I can walk" he shakes his head making sure the whole blanket is over my entire body he walks out going to the front desk he grabs the sign out sheet signing my name. We walk out the building getting hit with the December breeze I smile it feels great to be out in the world Ethan opens his car door placing me inside then going around getting in then starting the car.

We sit in silence pure silence all you can hear is the heater and our breaths "I'm gonna go in and get your clothes" he says pulling into the driveway of the oh so familiar house. I sit and wait for him to come back I just look at the snow that sits on the ground this house has been hell for me yet I still call it home my dad has done nothing but hurt me yet I still call him dad I can never seem to get my life in order I have things I want to do but never seem to fall through with them, my dad still doesn't know about Xavier he is gone completely once I took his stuff to the orphanage the guy told me that the family was lined up I'm happy for Xavier he actually has a life ahead of him.

I see Ethan walk out with three big duffle bags my eyes widen "Ethan why are you bringing my whole room" I shout "Cause your living with me" he explains "But your pa-" he cuts me off "I already talked to them" he gets in the car driving off.

He sets the last bag down looking up at me "Uh do you want to shower" he asks "Yeah" I say grabbing a pair of joggers and a white tee as well as bra and underwear I walk into the bathroom starting a bath. I lay myself in the warm water I'm relaxed until someone knocks then walks in "It's just me" Ethan says his eyes closed "You can open your eyes" I say softly his eyes open immediately looking at me "I just ha-have to grab my dirty clothes" he stutters he goes to walk out but I stop him "Can you help me" his face turns pink I don't actually need help but I want to talk to him now would be a good time to break up with him.

He sets down the basket walking over to me I stand up he admires my body "What do you need help with" he grabs the soap "Washing myself" I tell him "Okay" he grabs a Luffa then begins washing my body "We need to talk Ethan" he rubs my stomach softly with the luffa "Okay" he responds "I'm sorry for telling you I hate you" he doesn't answer but I know he is listening "I don't hate you I actually love you" my breath hitches "Alia I know you don't hate me but I know you don't love me like that, all I want to do is help you but I can't help someone who can't help their self" I swallow the lump in my throat "Ethan we can't be together anymore" he sighs "I know".

He stands to his feet "I'm not mad at you I'm proud that your getting your shit together but promise me something" he grabs my hand "Promise me that you won't go to Grayson" I feel my heart beat quicken "Ethan I can't promise you anything I can't predict the future thats all unknown to me" he nods letting my hand go "Then just promise that you won't give up on me" I smile "I won't your one of my bestfriends that's how it was always meant to be I think we got together way to quickly but I promise that I will always be there for you like you have been for me" I kiss him softly this will obviously be our last kiss.

He walks out not looking at my body again which I completely respect he cares for me enough to not look at me in that way anymore that shows me a lot hopefully he will be around in the future there isn't many people on this earth like him I thrive for those types of people they deserve everything and so much more.

I liked this chapter I find it cute that Ethan respected that Alia didn't want to be with him anymore.
