foresight [FINISHED] | e.d

monday; school

| ETHAN'S POV |

for the past few nights, i've been dreaming again. just little snippets of what happens throughout eve's day, like i used to. they came back that first night of the lake trip, after she told me she wanted me back.

since then, i haven't taken "keeping us a secret" into much consideration, and neither has eve. we've both come to the conclusion that it's better to be happy, and tell people the truth.

making my way through the crowded hallway, i desperately try and find her locker, hoping she hasn't already left for class.

i scan around, finally finding the girl i was looking for, practically running in her direction.

"good morning." i wrap my arms around her waist, planting a kiss on her cheek afterwards.

she jolts, "shit, you have to stop doing that." her lips curve into a smile as i begin laughing as well.

a few moments of silence go by as we sway back and forth slightly. i continue planting small kisses on her shoulder bone.

her smile is faded. "we should tell them at graduation." she turns around to face me, freeing herself from my grip. i sigh from the loss of contact.

i'm assuming she's referencing her parents. "why not sooner?" i tilt my head slightly, pushing a strand of her hair behind her ear.

"your parents will be there with us, they can help us get the news across." she shrugs her shoulders, nervously.

i place my hand under her chin, rubbing my thumb on her soft skin. "don't stress about this like you used to, okay? i'll handle it."

her mouth was agape, as if she wanted to say something else before being interrupted by a loud voice.

"so you both finally decided to tell us your dirty little secret, huh?" tyler grabs onto my shoulder, patting it harshly as he usually does.

i was so caught up with eve that i actually forgot grayson and i told them all on sunday, fuck.

after the trip, we invited alex, brett, tyler and blair over to clear up any confusion. eve refused to come, knowing she'd be uncomfortable with blair there as she finds out.

tyler's eyes look to eve in a sarcastic way, as the rest of the group is walking up behind him.

"stop." she laughs, slightly pushing his chest. her face was beaming, like it does when i make her laugh, or blush.

i feel my cheeks heat up to the point where it hurts, probably because she hasn't acted that way around me in a while. i latch onto her wrist, pulling her towards me, trying not to make it obvious that i felt a little jealous.

| EVE'S POV |

the whole group is now pretty much surrounding ethan and i as he holds onto me a little tighter than usual.

brett's arm hangs over alex's shoulder as a hesitant look rests on her face.

the loud bell muffled through my ears, signaling that class was starting. everyone heads off to first period, ethan waiting up for me to grab my books.
