opposites | e. dolan

chapter 03.

"whoa there, love birds, keep your hands to yourself." graysons head peeped into the doorway and a chuckle escaped his lips after he said that.

i looked at ethan with a bit of happiness in my small smile, and i felt my cheeks turn a light pink. i looked down and tucked a strand of hair behind my left ear, and i then heard ethan retort, "leave us alone, grayson, we're just studying."

his words hurt.

i looked back up at grayson and tried to cover the hurt in my face. i put on a believeable smile and said, "yeah, we're just studying. nothing else, gray."

grayson had seen the hurt on my face that i had tried to shake off. he had a worried look on his face, then tried to make it seem like he didn't notice.

"okay, whatever you say. but when you two are done, come talk to me." grayson made direct eye contact with me, and i nodded. he then gave me a small grin, then walked away.

"what was that all about," ethan asked me, then i looked at him with my big brown eyes and hummed.

"hm?"

"the thing that just happened between you and gray, what was that."

"i don't know. gray and i are just friends, really close friends, that's what we've always been. why does it matter so much anyway? you and i are just studying, remember?"

i saw a look in his eyes, he had looked shocked by my words.

"i'm speechless." he told me.

"what's wrong?" i asked him with a concerned look on my face and worry in my voice.

"nothing. nothings wrong, i'm fine. alright, now where were we? working on pre-calculus, right?" he told me and looked away from my eyes, making my heart hurt for him. he had looked upset.

did i say something wrong?

"no, e tell me." i put my hand onto his right forearm, and he looked down at our physical contact, then back up at me.

with his left hand, he cupped my cheek with his large hand and had started stroking my cheek with his thumb.

"gosh you're gorgeous, ari." ethan quickly grabbed onto my waist with his arm that was currently under mine, and he kissed me.

the lip-to-lip contact was full of everything, passion, love, and butterflies swarming around my stomach.

i could feel ethan smirk against my lips and i had felt him lick my bottom lip, and that was when i tugged onto his top lip and he had started sucking onto my bottom lip.

we both released from our physical contact that had lasted about 15 seconds, and looked at each other with smiles on our faces, panting, trying to catch our breath.

well damn. wasn't he a good kisser.
