I'm okay. -Ethan Dolan-

Chapter 8

Dear Diary,
I'm at Ivy's house getting ready.  I'm in her bathroom about to take a shower.  I'm 17!  I have to get ready for the party now!
-Natalie

I dried off and changed back into my comfy outfit.  Then I wrapped my wet hair in a towel.

"Time to get ready!" Ivy said excitedly as I walked in her room.  We first dried our hair and straightened it.  Then we did our makeup. 

"I love it" I said looking at her makeup.

"Thanks!  I like yours too!" She said.  "Now we need to get changed!" She said walking over to her closet. 

I found a cute but not to fancy blue dress that went perfectly with my eyes.  She picked a purple one like that.

Soon later people started arriving.

"Happy Birthday Natalie!" Ethan says walking over.

"Thanks!"  I say with a smile.

"Do you wanna dance?" He asks me.

"Sure!" I say.  We join the other people dancing.

After a while we go sit on the couch.

"Natalie, I uh got you a little something." He says pulling out a box.  He slowly opens it revealing a heart necklace.

"It's beautiful Ethan!  Thank you!" I say as he puts it around my neck.

All of a sudden I notice him looking at my arms.  I'm a little confused at first but then I remembered I forgot to cover my scars.

He looks up at my eyes and says, "why?"

"I'm sorry" I say nervously.

"What's wrong?" He asks with sadness in his voice.

"I'm okay." I say.

"Why did you do it?" He asks.

"I uh I just was upset about the comments from your fans.  I'm okay now though.  I'm sorry Ethan."  I can't tell him about my mom.

"Natalie I'm sorry they're kinda jealous.  I don't wanna hurt you though.  It's kinda my fault.  I don't want you to get hate.  You don't deserve it.  You deserve better.  Maybe we should b-break up." He said as a tear slid down his cheek.

"W-what?" I said in disbelief.  My vision was blurry and tears were streaming down my face.  Ethan was like the one good thing in my life.  I can't lose him.

I run out to my car and drive home.
