I sat there shocked. What did I just do.... I slowly got off the counter. I moved to Leo and laid next to him. I hear Ezra come back inside shortly. He appeared in the door way, looking at me. "Everly..." he whispered. I ignored him and he sighed before walking away. I never fell asleep, once it hit five a.m. I got up and saw Ezra passed out on the couch, sitting up. I moved to put a blanket over him, and he opened his eyes. "Morning..." he mumbled.
"Shh go back to sleep." I whispered. He looked at the clock instead.
"You're up early..." he mumbled.
"Never slept." I replied. He sighed.
"Why?"
"Maybe because we fucked on the counter, and I have a boyfriend. That's possibly it." I said.
"Why are you with him? Do you even like him?"
"Yes, I do. He's nice, he treats me well, he calls me when he says he will, he comes over when I ask him too, we talk about how we feel about each other so we don't keep each other guessing..."
"If you cant see how I feel about you then you outta be blind." He said.
"I didn't know that then, Ezra. It's different now. I'm with Leo." I said.
"Fuck him, Everly, I love you more."
"You love me?"
"Yes!"
"Too bad I don't feel the same." I moved to walk to the kitchen and he grabbed my arm and pulled me to him so I was on his lap causing me to gasp in shock.
"You don't mean that." He whispered. He pushed my hair back behind my ear before caressing my cheek with his thumb.
"Y-Yes I do...." no I didn't.
"Then why are you looking at me like you want to devour me?" He asked me inching closer to me. I glanced to his lips. I wanted to kiss him. I wanted him. I wanted to be with him... but I couldn't help but think about Leo. I didn't want to hurt him. Before I knew it his lips connected to mine. I kissed him back softly. He pulled me closer, his hand staying on my hip. I moved to straddle him to get as close as possible to him. He played with the hem of my dress before taking it off me. His hands explored my body as he kissed my neck. I took his shirt off him and let my hands roam around the bare skin. He eventually moved to lay me down, hovering above me as we kissed each other slowly. We've never kissed like this before. It was full of passion, and love. "Say you're mine..." he whispered against my lips before looking into my eyes. My mouth acted on its own, whispering "I'm yours" and I smiled because I knew it was true. He smiled the brightest smile I've ever seen before kissing me happily, then he broke away suddenly. "Are you going to leave him?"
"I think I need to wait until after the wedding..."
"What? Why?"
"because... he's my date..."
"So? I'll be your date instead."
"He's a groomsman, Ezra, and he's one of Jake's friends, it's not about us, it's about not ruining Lola and Jake's day." I said. He sighed and nodded.
"You're right... after the wedding... then you'll be mine." He said. I smiled and nodded. "You aren't... going to kiss him or anything are you?"
"I probably will have to." I said. He frowned. "But I'll only think of you when I do. It's what I've been doing for the past few months anyway." I said. He smirked slightly.
"Am I that in your head?"
"Yes." I smiled. Leo started groaning in the bedroom and I quickly pushed Ezra off me before putting my dress on. "Good morning, sleepy head." I said walking into the bed room.
