Twenty Five ☾

A/N: Rest in piece Sean Dolan<3

Ethan was driving me home staying quiet. He hasn't talked too much since he heard the news of Samantha. I wonder what happened? I'm sure he will tell me when he is ready.

"Ethan, are you okay?" I asked quietly as I watched him drive quietly. He slowly nodded and then looked at me momentarily before going back to the road. "Don't worry about me princess." He said in a hushed tone.

But I do worry.

As we pulled into my drive way I noticed his hands shaking and he was bouncing his leg up and down, after putting the car in park.

"Ethan?" I asked putting my hand on his cheek turning his face towards me. He looked at me with a pained look in his eyes.

"Talk to me.." I whispered looking at all of the emotions pouring out of him through just his eyes. No tears. No words. He's strong all the time..

He reached over grabbing me by waist and easily setting me on his lap, so I'm straddling him. He wrapped his arms around my waist and put his head in my neck with a sigh.

"She fucked me up baby." He whispered. I cupped his cheeks making him look into my eyes. I gave him a look, telling him to go on. He shook his head showing such pain in his eyes.

"I'm here Ethan.. you don't have to keep your walls up." I whispered. He smiled weakly and nodded slowly. He looked away for a second before meeting my eyes again.

"I hate who I am when she's around. I-it's like she makes me the worst possible version of myself." He said with a blank look. It hurts to see him like this, I've never seen him like this. He looked back up into my eyes as I sat there on his lap not knowing what to say. I felt his heart beating faster by the second.

He grabbed my cheeks and pulled me towards him almost making our noses touch. He looked from my eyes to my lips back and forth. My heart started beating faster, as his eyes rested on my lips. He slowly leaned in close..

Holy cheese. Is he gon-

Honk!

The horn in the car went off.. I must have accidentally pushed it making me jump and burst into giggles. Ethan chuckled and looked into my eyes. "You're so beautiful." He whispered looking at all my features. He's the only boy who's ever called me that. Not hot, or sexy, but beautiful.

"I love that smile." He said looking at the big smile on my face. Little did he know.."It's only there because of you." I said almost inaudibly. He smiled and looked at me intently.

"I don't like when you're sad." I said putting my head on his shoulder. He rubbed my back up and down soothing me. "I'm not sad baby, I'm with you." He said. I lifted my head and tilted my head to the side.

"Will you tell me one day why you're sad?" I asked with hope weaved through every word. He nodded slowly. "One day my princess, I promise." He whispered.

Then he opened his door picking me up and carrying me in his arms to my house. He walked me inside, and all the way up the stairs to my bedroom easily. He softly laid me on the bed and turned my lights off.

I watched as he grabbed my bear putting him next to me. "Keep him with you." He said quietly as I nodded closing my eyes on the verge of sleep.

As the broken boy laid the stuffed animal next to the angel in front of him, he smiled looking at her perfection. "Keep him with you." He said almost too quietly to hear.

As Liv fell asleep she missed out on hearing the words she secretly craved the most.

"He loves you almost.. as much as I do." He whispered laying a kiss on her forehead running his fingers softly on her cheeks, as he watched his princess dream in that little head of hers...
