Ethan leaned and whispered the lyrics of the song in my ear "I love you, I loved you all along" I almost stopped dancing all together but he kept our dancing and whispered "and I missed you, been far away for far too long" his grip tightened a bit "I keep dreaming you’ll be with and you’ll never go. Stop breathin if I don’t see you anymore"
He pulled away and I could see the determination in his eyes
I’d give it all, i’d give for us
Give anything but i won’t give up
I didn’t know what to say. did he actually say that he loved . Ethan kept on dancing like nothing happened at all
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted, I wanted you to stay
Cause I needed, I need to hear you say
For the first ti I made the first move and kissed him slowly. I felt him smile against my lips and lift as he continued to slowly dance. Our lips moved against each other in an innocent, passionate kiss, there was no tongue, no urgency, just an innocent kiss
So keep breathing, cause I’m not leavin you anymore
Believe it, hold on to to never let go
When we pulled away and the song had ended Ethan led to the table but then groaned "patrol report. I’ll be right back"
"If there’s anything knew just tell okay?" I said sternly and he nodded and went.
"Soone was having fun out there" Jim said snapping back to reality "why didn’t you tell us you such a good dancer?"
I smiled "Never knew myself" I said looking back to see where Ethan was
"Well you do seem happier I’ll give him that" Jacob said "Doesn’t an he’s off the hook yet"
"Chill Tay" Dave said slapping Jacob on the back "I don’t think he has it in him to hurt her he looks like he’s really trying and plus he wouldn’t risk kicking his ass"
"Co on Dave everyone knows I’m the brain and the bronze" Jim said "you’re the leftovers"
"Nu-uh" Dave said "I think you got it backwards"
I sighed as the twins started their usual bickering and noticed Ethan talking to lissa. I stood up and started to walk their way and just as I was about to reach them I saw Ethan’s shoulders tense and lissa looking deathly pale. Well that was weird, they were talking a bit but I couldn’t hear a thing so I walked closer.
"What?" Ethan said and lissa just stared at him. I saw Ethan’s fists clench "Lily isn’t my mate, I don’t have one. Never did"
I froze at his words and I could feel my wolf howl in pain. Did I just hear right? it felt the sa as it did two years ago, like I was in a daze
"Co no they’re announcing winter king and queen" Dave said enthusiastically as he led near the stage but I wasn’t focusing on him. Just at the pain that I was currently trying to control.
I hadn’t thought about it, when Ethan said he wanted back, when he made go out on a date with him, it was never near pack mbers or anyone, just the people who already knew. Ethan was ashad of as a mate just like he was two years ago.
I faintly head my na being called and soone pushing to walk before I found myself on the stage "Congratulations Lily" The principal said putting the winter queen tiara on my head. "And Now for winter king" she opened the envelope "Ethan Lytton"
And my heart broke all over again as I watched Ethan walk confidently to the stage and smile as he offered his hand, but I just stared at it and then at him. Why was I such an..idiot?
"Lily" Ethan whispered coming closer to but I took a step back and stumbled. I looked at the crowd and they were all looking at confused. I found my boys and barely registered when Jacob murmured "sothing’s wrong" to Xavier. That seed to snap back to reality.
"Lily" Ethan said again and I looked back at him and felt my heart sink to my feet. I let my walls down,and I got hurt.
"No" I whispered as my breathing started coming faster "NO" I threw the tiara on the floor and ran down the stage, ignoring everyone as I started walking as fast as I could, trying not to seem too eager to go but I couldn’t help it.
By the ti i was out of the school doors I heard Ethan calling . No, not now the pain was building, my heart was clenching and my chest was tightening and I had no idea how to control the pain that was so much worse than before. "Stay away Ethan" I said without looking back.
"What do you an stay away? What’s wrong? Co on Lily talk to I’m your--"
I turned around, knowing what he was going to say and shoved him back. "NO" I scread "YOU DO NOT GET TO CALL THAT" I felt my lip tremble and told him through clenched teeth "you do not get to call that"
I took a shaky breath, ignoring the pain and forced myself to talk "I ca here...and I told myself I won’t be the sa girl I was. I won’t allow myself to get hurt" I saw a lot of people were watching us now, including my boys but i didn’t care "And it was working at first. it was" I took a deep breath, finding it extrely hard to breath "And then you...and then you had to-to decide you wanted . you just had to tell that you never wanted to-to reject and to-hurt that way"
"it was true Lily I-"
