ethans pov:
"i needed to see you e.."
when she said that...my heart just broke...i had butterflies and my inside was falling a part...but why? how can a girl hold this much power over me... i was so in shock to see her and i didn't even respond i just stared into her eyes and i was lost in them...i need to feel her..to touch her...and to have her presence known.
it's like...no matter what she does i can't help myself around her..i know it makes no sense, in fact it sounds stupid. but you will understand one day when you find that someone in your life that you can't ever forget about..no matter how hard you try...
10 seconds pass..and it's just awkward silence "i'll be in my room if you need me..." -gray says as he walks out of the room, leaving me and emma alone but we don't break our eye contact.
"e..i'm so sorry.." she says but i don't know what to say... i'm just speechless...
"please talk to me.." she says as her eyes start to water
"i...don't know what to say.." i say still shocked
"are you mad at me..?" as she says that she looks at me for a reaction as i don't reply "i'm sorry..stupid question..of course you are and i totally get it...just talk to me when your ready. i'll be outside.." she says turning around and walks out the front door and i just stand there frozen and not knowing what to do...
okay ethan. think. or you know what. hear her out. don't be the dramatic person you are, and be mature and talk about this with her.
i take a deep breath and walk towards the front door, and open it to see her sitting on the outside steps in front of the door.
she looks back to see me standing there then turns back around but she doesn't say anything. i close the door behind me, and walk over to her and sit down next to her. i wait 30 seconds to say something "can you tell me your side of the story...please.." -e
she nods and takes a deep breath "...so me and jack became friends one day from running into each other at target-"
i say this cutting her off "what do you mean running into each other?"
"we use to be a thing in high school" -em
"oh okay"
"so...when we ran into each other, he asked if i wanted to hangout with him sometime, i said sure, quickly regretting it but i didn't know what to do. so the next day we go to a cafe and get some coffee and we talk for a couple hours and it was fun. he was actually really fun to talk to. when i was about to leave he went in for a hug so i just hugged him back. but he knew we were only friends, because i was dating you. then when i got home that night, you came over and told me the news about you coming here for a month. and i lost it and i was going through so many emotions that night.." she says that and i nod my head wanting to hear the rest of the story.
"then 2 days later i went to your house to talk to you, but you never answered the door"
after she says that i jump to say "i was already in new jersey at that time.."
"yeah well i didn't know when you were leaving so i assumed you didn't want to talk to me.." -em
"that's not true"
"i know that know.." she says kinda smiling but not really then continues the story
"so after that i went home and felt like crap..and the last thing i wanted was to be alone and jack texted me to see if i wanted to hangout so he came over and we cleaned and watched movies then he went home. and then from there we've been hanging out a lot since you left.. then one day we met up at a coffee shop to hangout for a few hours, then as i'm about to leave he suddenly kissed me, and then i pulled away immediately and told him i didn't like him like that. because i still loved you." after she finished her sentence her face went into shock.
"you loved me...?"
"yeah...and... i still do.." she says looking into my eyes and then all of a sudden something came over me, and i just leaned in pressing my lips against hers causing us to make out for a couple minutes.
when we pull away we're breathless and our foreheads are still touching i then say " i love you too" causing her to giggle and smile, then she kisses me again.
"e...i'm so sorry..." -em
"it's okay...now that i know the whole story...i understand that you didn't do anything intentionally"
"okay..." she says looking down still feeling bad
"i've missed you...so much em..." i say
"i missed you too e" she says smiling staring into my eyes.
and just like that this gorgeous, kind hearted, amazing girl in front of me, is all mine, and i couldn't be happier.
