Always Be Mine Chapter 25
Ethan's P.O.VOnce the bell rang, the first thing that came to my mind was seeing Maya after school. It has turned into a sort of routine that we've created. It didn't matter if we were hanging out or not, a minute of seeing her face and a goodbye was all I need before I had to endure half a day without her.The principal's assistant knocks on the door. "Ethan Morrison to the principal's office please."My friends all laughed at me. I repetitively cussed them out and didn't care what they thought about it. Great, now I was going to be late to see Maya.Pushing through the crowds of people, I try to get there as fast as I could so I could leave quickly. Once I entered the room, I see our principal resting his elbows against the desk, eyebrows raised at my appearance.He takes out a piece of paper from under his desk.ATTENDANCE RECORD"It's come to my attention that you've missed quite a lot of classes," Mr. Hendrickson said.He was our school principal, which meant that when there was

Ethan's P.O.VThe excitement was written all over her eyes as I cup her jaw, brushing her soft skin with my thumb.My chest tightens at her expression and every part of me is aching for her. I leaned in close, leaving a trail of kisses on her neck. Her eyes hesitantly rake over me as I press up against her.She turns over to face me. "God, I'm so wet."Dragging my shirt off my body and dropping it on the floor, I hungrily reconnect my mouth with hers, her hand gliding over my chest. I can't waste a single second.The heat, hunger, and horniness in her eyes make my heart pound. Instead of moving closer to me as I had expected, she stood up and faces me."I want to please you," she whispers.I let out a heavy breath — almost a grunt — and my parts ache with anticipation as she starts touching me.She goes on her knees and opens my leg apart, sliding in between them. She places her mouth dangerously close to me and then opens in pleasure.Keeping eye contact, I look at her and pure ecsta

Instead of doing the usual studying, I spent all weekend too busy being angry at Ethan to do anything productive.When I wasn't thinking about being angry about Ethan, I was busy missing him.If it was a few months ago, I would be fine not texting Ethan for weeks on end. Actually, we didn't even text for seventeen years until months ago.Now, he was a big part of my daily routine. Whether it was the weekdays or weekends, receiving a message from him always made me happier.Not to say that he didn't send me any texts over the weekend, because he did. A lot actually.He sent me hundreds of texts saying he was sorry and that he wasn't going to go to Celine's house anymore, and it took me all I had to ignore every single one of them. I made sure to read his texts to show him that I've seen his messages but do not want to reply.Yes, I am at that level of pety.Maybe I went a little overboard but he needed to know that I didn't like it when he went to another girl's house. Okay, it was to

Maya's P.O.VI ate dinner as quickly as I could so I would make it over to Ethan's house before it got too late. I hated walking alone on the streets when it was late. I was feeling very hopeful about the whole situation. Maybe because for the very first time, I was doing something romantic for him."You're leaving again?" My mom asks."Yeah, I forgot my textbook at Leah's so I'm going to grab it. I won't take long," I lied.She nods and continues making her tea as I head out the door.My gaze goes towards the cream door of Ethan's house. Taking in a deep breath, I tell myself that I got this. He deserves this for all the shit that I've put him through. I knock on his door.No answer.I waited for a few seconds and knock again.Another moment later, a freshly showered Ethan opens the door and I'm face-to-face with the sight that I've longed to see all weekend long. He's got this lazy smile plastered on his face that makes me even more nervous than I already am. His hair was slightly

Maya's P.O.VWhen I woke up Wednesday morning, I was feeling all groggy and tired. I stood in front of my closet, deciding what outfit I should put on as I get ready for the day. Today was only a half-day which typically still was a full-day for me as I'd stay in the library and study. "Let's go eat frozen yogurt today!" Leah exclaimed, throwing her hands up in the air."I'm probably going to the library to study," I said."Definitely not, it's a half-day for a reason!""Still, I have a lot of catching up to do.""I'll pay for your froyo," Leah grinned, knowing she had me at that.This time, I decided to order a different flavor, matcha, instead of the original that I always had since I was a kid. I didn't know what came over me, but I felt adventurous today. We sat and talked mostly about prom, how we were going to style our hair, our dresses, the usual. After our frozen yogurt hangout session, a text pops up on my phone. It's from Ethan.Ethan: I'll be outside the frozen yogurt p

Ethan's P.O.VThis was supposedly the party of the year. Gabe didn't even have to tell anyone he was having a party on his birthday because they just automatically knew that he'd have one, just like every other year.And just like every other year, there was no way I could miss my best friend's birthday party. Plus, the guys would give me a lot of shit for not coming.When I got to his house, it was booming loud with music. There has got to be at least a hundred people in the house all dancing and drinking with each other. I doubt he even knew half the people here, but it wasn't like he cared.From left to right, there were guys and girls grinding against each other, a desperate look in their eyes that showed they were definitely going to hook up tonight. That's why there were rooms upstairs.Pushing past the crowd, I made my way to the stairs, which took a lot more effort than I expected. Navigating through a crowd of drunk and high teenagers is harder than you think."Ethan, my man!

Ethan's P.O.VAfter an hour or so, I found myself driving home. I contemplated long and hard before deciding that it wasn't the best idea to drive over to Maya's house considering that I was slightly intoxicated, so I decided to drop my car off first. Besides, it didn't take that long to walk over.Glancing briefly at the driveway, I see two cars parked in front of the house. I sighed as I locked my car, approaching the walkway. I hated it when his friends came over because that meant that I had to deal with five times the asshole, which was why I'm almost never home when they're over.Unfortunately for me, that wasn't the case today.I mentally prepared myself for the chaos that was about to happen as I entered the house, coming face to face with my dad and two other girls that looked barely legal by his side. They were probably around my age, but like the sick guy he is, he doesn't even care. I tried not to pay any attention to them as I strode through the living room, not making an

Ethan's P.O.VThe door swung open, and Maya looks up at me with her big and brown eyes. Her face slightly wet and shiny from the shower and to top it off, she was wearing an extremely thin tank top with heart-shaped pajama pants.Holy shit.How could someone wear pajamas and still make me want her so badly?I inhaled sharply as she pulled me into a hug and all I could think about was how close I was to her breasts. In fact, I could see them even clearer, perking through the paper-thin fabric as she leaned closer. As hard as I try to keep my eyes firmly on her face, she was making it incredibly hard."That was a long fifteen minutes," she arched an eyebrow, her arms crossed under her breasts, pushing it up slightly — not that I was looking.1"I'm sorry, I got into an unexpected fight with my dad," I said, "you know how he is."The moment I said that worry poured into her wide eyes as she moved aside, letting me into her house. The door shut behind us and she led me to her room. A stro

Ethan's P.O.VIf someone told me years ago that I'd find the love of my life and get married on the beach, I'd think you were crazy. But now that it was becoming a reality, I felt the hairs on the back of my neck lift in excitement as the limo pulls up to the resort where our wedding is being held.Maya has always dreamed of having her wedding on the beach and who was I to protest against it?The driver walks around and opens the door for me. "I wish you all the best on your special day."I sent him a nervous smile and tipped him. "Thank you. Have a great day!"The warm glow of sunlight rested upon my shoulders. Today, Maya was going to become my wife. God, I don't think I'll ever get tired of thinking her that way.Upon entering the room, the atmosphere was buzzing with excited chatter as children ran around between the tables. Since our wedding was on the beach, there was a pleasant breeze that rustled in the surrounding trees. Sweet strains of classical music drifted through the cr
Always Be Mine Chapter 53 epilogue
Dear Ethan,I suppose that since you're reading this letter, it means that I've decided to come to the airport to send you off. If I'm going to be completely honest, I didn't think I was going to go. Not because I hate you, but because I didn't know how I'd react seeing you leave. I have so many mixed feelings that I can hardly wonder where to start when it comes to saying goodbye.Being a hopeless romantic, I believe that everyone deserves a chance at love. It might sound silly, but after the countless romance novels and movies that I've watched, how can I not?My whole life, I believed the definition of love was two people being romantically attracted to each other and living happily ever after.Oh, how wrong I was.Ever since I could remember, I was known as the girl with very good grades, and I can't deny the fact that it was in fact true. I absorbed every material teacher taught with ease and excelled in tests. I know how to describe the process of protein synthesis in detail and

Ethan's P.O.VI gaze at my reflection in the mirror, taking in that this was going to be one of the very last times I get to do this. Was it weird to say that I'm going to miss this mirror?Or this bedroom.Or my everyday routine.My friends.My life here.My shoulders tighten when I hear a knock on my door, yet I felt relieved as the knock probably spared me from what would have been hours of overthinking.Hurrying over, I opened the door to see my dad standing in front of me. I was sủprised, to say the least. The last time he knocked on my door was when mom was still alive, which was years ago. And for the first time, he doesn't reek of alcohol and cigarettes."So, your flight to London is today?" he asked, still standing outside.I nodded. "At one.""You packed everything?"He sounded like he actually cared, which worries me."Yeah, I'm done packing.""That's good."A heavy silence fell and we stood there facing each other for what seemed like an eternity.His voice came out in a h

Maya's P.O.VThe exam week passed in a blur.My face was so deeply buried in textbooks that I had no recognition of what was going on around me. My friends would ask me to hang out, but I'd always end up declining. Time was precious, especially when exams were so close, which meant I couldn't let myself waste it.I could slightly recall the tingle I felt when I walked into the exam room. I hated being in exam conditions. It was suffocating.But I got over it anyways.Couldn't say the same about my break up with Ethan though.A few days later, we received our end of year school reports, which included the final exam grades that I studied so hard for. I let the happiness soak into my bones as I savored in my perfect final exam grades. All A's — except for that one A-minus — but I wasn't going to beat myself over it. For the first time in weeks, I finally felt relaxed. No more vigorous studying, no more deadlines, no more schedules to meet.Also no more relationship.After our exams, sen

Maya's P.O.VThe loneliness I felt was beyond anything I have ever felt. Before I knew it, my life changed significantly in very little ways, and in such a short period of time that it affected me more than I thought it would. Nobody brought up the conversation about Ethan again, nor dared to mention his name when I was around.Instead of spending all-day around people, I've become more introverted every since our breakup. I spend most of my days flipping through textbooks and rewriting my notes. One week prior to our exams, our teachers usually gave us free time in class to study, but everyone just procrastinated or talked amongst themselves. Nobody actually studied — except me.Being someone that couldn't study in a loud environment, I've asked the teachers to let me go to the library to study, so it's become a routine now. Just like every other day, I've headed to class for attendance before making my way to the library aka my second home."Look who's here," Jason said, approachi

Ethan's P.O.VI woke up the same way I had fallen asleep, tired, and emotionless. Rolling over to my nightstand, I removed the charging wire before checking my phone.Gabe: Wanna head to the gym today?It's not like I was going to do anything at home, so might as well.Ethan: Sounds good. Meet you there in an hour.Setting my phone to the side, I close my eyes. The moment I do, the image of Maya crawls into my head.It's been a week. One cold, lonely, and meaningless week of me avoiding her. I haven't replied to any of her texts, calls, and would head to the gym instead of eating lunch together at the cafeteria.This is what you have to do.As much as I don't want to, I have to.Grabbing whatever was closest to me, I buried my face deep into my pillow, screaming in the process. All this thinking was going to drive me crazy.I'm going to the gym. I'm going to gym out all my problems.Walking to my closet, I picked and changed into the first tank top and pair of shorts that I see. As I

Maya's P.O.VIt's been almost a week and not one single text from him.Even after a few days, I was still in a great deal of shock after my conversation with Ethan. In fact, it's eating me up so much that I couldn't even remember what I learned in class today. As much as I tried not to obsess over what he said, it seemed almost impossible considering I've sat on my table for thirty minutes and haven't started on any work yet."Honey, dinner's almost ready," my mom hollered from downstairs. Sucking up all the air in my lungs, I yelled back just as loud, if not louder. "Coming!"If I was going to be honest, I had no appetite whatsoever, but it would look suspicious if I didn't come down for dinner. My dad didn't even wait for my mom before stuffing his mouth with the cheese-filled lasagna. It was his all-time favorite so she would make them every Monday. Usually, families had their unhealthy cheat meals on Friday night, but not in this household. My mom believes that since Monday wa

Ethan's P.O.VI glanced around to see where they were sitting before easing my way towards them. From far away, I could already hear the guys talking about which girls they thought were hot, and what they did after prom (which I'd prefer not to say).Scanning the table, the moment I laid eyes on Maya, a part of me couldn't believe that this gorgeous girl was my girlfriend. She was wearing a light-colored floral top that complemented her figure well. My gaze slowly traveled down and I take in her tight skinny jeans. My god."I love your outfit today," I said, giving her a quick peck on the lips. Her cheeks flamed as she tried to hide her smile. "Hey."Maya stared up at me as I slide into the seat net to her. She shifted her eyes to me, and the worry plastered on her face didn't go unnoticed.She shoved a fry in her mouth. Why was she worried? "You okay?" I asked.Once I settled down, I squeezed her thigh for reassurance, but she didn't muster up a reply. I tried to let it go until th

Maya's P.O.VLeah and Connor dropped us off before heading to the back to park the car. Right away, I noticed that everyone was super dressed up As I stepped out of the door, I felt a rush of cool air hit my body. God, I should have brought a coat with me or something. While we waited for Leah and Connor, I tried hard not to shift around and I was pretty sure he noticed considering he put his arm around my shoulder. "You okay?" Ethan asked, "you look nervous.""Just a bit," I smiled, "I've never actually worn anything like this before, especially in front of so many people."His brow wrinkled as he shook his head. "That's crazy, there's nothing to worry about. You're the most beautiful girl here."I frown. "That's a lie.""Well, my eyes are only going to be on you tonight so technically, it's not a lie," he shrugs casually. I guess it makes sense..."Are you ready?" he asked.I smiled and nodded as he intertwined our hands together. The moment our hand makes contact, a wave of ha
