"I never thought I would even talk, yet look at this girl until gray brought up the bet. Now I know that was a lie.
She taught me to be good. To live, love, laugh.
She is my favorite place.
Little did I know, I would end of having a small amount...
I turned to my best friend, contemplating on what to wear to this "date" of me and Ethan's. He hasn't told me where we are going, he just said he would pick me up at 8 on Tuesday. And....it's Tuesday. Great.
"Em just wear something casual, I don't know." Bailey says honestly. And I'm confused on why I'm freaking out so much. It's just Ethan. But he's a player, my subconscious reminds me, but I push her back and focus back on my closet and choose this.

I take a step out of my closet and face Bailey and Jaz. "Well?" I say shaking my hands, a nervous matter I have had to pick up.
They look up and they say "hot" in unison. "You guys freak me out sometimes." I laugh, turning to the mirror. Deep breaths. Why the fuck am I so nervous?
Ethan Pov I decided to take Emma to a place that I go when I need a break. Not the gym no. But something special. I need to make it seem like I actually have feelings towards her. And....unfortunately I have to dress nice.
I pick out the only good looking cut clean outfits I have:

I go out of my room and get Grayson's nod of approval. "Not to over the top right?" I say. "I don't want to look like I tried to hard." I say honestly. "You look clean bro. Go get her. It's almost 8."
I check the clock.
7:49pm
I make my way to my Jeep and get in. Turning the key and starting the car.
*seven mins later*
Emma Pov I check the time.
7:57pm Almost 8.
I start to get nervous. Jaz and Bails went home about two hours ago. Leaving me to get more nervous. I pick at my manicured nails. A bad habit I know.
A knock at the door throws me off.
I jerk my head to the side and finally get up and open the door to see Ethan standing there, in front of me, wearing a tight white shirt with a leather jacket and jeans. He looked. . . . .
"Emma?" My head snaps up from his body.
"Yea?" I say mentally slapping myself in the face for eyeing him too long.
"Eyes are up here." He jokes and I laugh. "Real funny.....grant." I whisper the end. His head turns to me in disbelief, glaring.
"How did you...." he's at a loss for words.
"Let's go Grant." I say walking out of my house pulling him by his bicep.
We get to the car and he opens the door for me. Okay. . . . I'm really confused. After walking around the Jeep, Ethan gets in. "You look nice Emma." He says starting the car and pulling out of my driveway.
"Your not too bad yourself Dolan." I joke. He laughs. His laugh is gorgeous. He doesn't laugh enough.
After 2 mins of driving, I'm already curious, "Where are we going Ethan?" I question him. He gives me a smile. Cute. "My favorite place." Ethan responds. Oh god. That could be anywhere.
30 mins later.
We finally arrive after about 35 mins of driving.
"A lighthouse?" I question standing at the one in front of me. He laughs and nods. "It's beautiful." I say.
"Wait until we get up there." He says. My head snaps to him. "Up where?" I say. He looks at the lighthouse, coming closer to me and grabbing my hand. I feel warmth. "Up in the house." He says.
He pulls me slightly, into his so called "place." Stepping over a bunch of rocks, until we reach a set of stairs. We climb them, of course, reaching the top of the lighthouse. He lets go of my hand. The warm place inside me disappearing.
Ethan walks over to look at, I'm guessing the view. I stand there, staring at the boy that is known as the ultimate player, a weird pit of what seems like fire filling my body as I realize that he himself, Ethan Dolan, might have a different side to him. I don't realize I'm just standing there until he speaks.
"Come over here it's beautiful." He says turning to me. I nod in agreement and walk over to the large window of the lighthouse. The sun is setting. A mix of what must be purple, pink and yellow mixed all together. A small gasp escapes my lips.
"Gorgeous huh?" E says next me. E? That's new. Never thought of it till now.
"Yea- Yes! It's...oh my god!" I squeal. He laughs and puts his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to his side. My breath hitches. I feel as if I should run, scream, move, do anything, but what I do is far from my thoughts as I lean into him. He hums in appreciation. I don't know what this is but I don't stop. I finally move away from his side to look at him in the eyes. He moves back too.
"Emma?" Ethan says staring into my eyes.
"Hmm?" I question, tilting my head to the side. Before I can even process what's happening, our faces are moving close. Almost inches apart, I stop.
"E. . ." I can't do this. He probably doesn't even like me.
"What's wrong?" He says. His eyes burning my soul.
"What. . ." I stutter. "What are we? What is this?" I gesture to him then me.
"This is me..." he strokes my forehead with his hand, moving hair out of my face, "and you..." he gets closer, and I feel myself doing the same. "falling...."
Our lips touch and the fire is ignited throughout my body. He tongue moves in sync with mine as he kisses me with what feels like passion. For what seems like hours of my first intimate and passion filled experience, me and Ethan pull away, out of breath, our foreheads touching.
"Em?" He says, out of breath.
"Hmm?" I say.
"Don't ever leave me." He says. And I sigh looking up, pushing his chin up with my finger, and burying my eyes into his.
"Trust me e, as long as you want me, you know I'm here."
He smiles leaning in and kissing me. The fire ignited once more.
