Chapter 64: Chapter 64
"In our lives" Jacob said glancing at Xavier and then back at Ethan "We won’t get in the way if you’re trying to patch things up, though you don’t deserve her. But if we see her just the slightest bit upset"
"We’ll kill you" the twins said together in all seriousness
"If you do anything wrong to her.." Adrian continued
"We’ll kill you" the twins repeated
"If you hurt her again..." Xavier added
"We’ll kill you"
Ethan nodded, unfazed by their glares "I’d never hurt her again" he said simply and then turned to me "Now if you don’t mind we’re heading out on our date"
the guys nodded and Ethan led me out of the house and to his car, he even opened the passenger door for me.
We talked a bit in the car before we arrived at the small restaurant. it wasn’t something too fancy, thank god, it was casual and actually sort of perfect.
We ordered and Ethan sat back and stared at me for a while with a smile on his face as he looked at me, for some reason i remembered earlier when he, and I blushed.
"You’re beautiful Lily" he stated and I blushed even harder and looked down and after a short while he added "I have a question"
"What?"
"Why’d you dye your hair? don’t get me wrong. Black or blond you’re still amazing but last time I heard you liked your hair blond."
I shrugged "New life, new me" I stated "I wanted everything to change, including myself so I just made a drastic change"
"Yeah and boy have you changed" Ethan commented chuckling. "Tell me about the two years you spent away, I want to know what I missed"
"Well Xavier had me show him my wolf when I first arrived, he wanted to know how strong I was. Adrian pinned me down in the first five seconds" I chuckled "I didn’t really talk to anyone at first except Xavier but I got used to them in a while and I started working extra hard at Adrian’s training so that’s how I lost weight; because I started using my wolf more."
"And cars?"
"Xavier’s car broke down and he was fixing it so I was really impressed and asked him to teach me. I was working at a small restaurant because I didn’t want him to have to support me then but after I learned about cars I applied for a job at the mechanic shop and that’s it I guess."
Ethan stared at me curiously "Xavier has had an impact on you huh?" he said a bit of jealousy in his tone.
"He has" I answered honestly "he was my pen pal for a while before I left and he was always there for me and helped me with everything, I could never pay him back for that"
"Did you-" Ethan started but seemed lost as to how to say what he was thinking "I mean while you were away did you-"
"Did I what?"
"Did you see anyone?" he asked "I mean I know I have no right to ask but if you don’t mind..."
I sighed and took a sip of my water as I played with my food "I did go out on a date or two because the twins wouldn’t stop nagging." I hesitated before I added "But it never got to anything, I didn’t trust anyone but my boys and even with them I was cautious at the time"
"I’m so sorry Lily I-" I raised my hand and he shut up
"Stop saying sorry, I know you regret it. besides, maybe it was supposed to happen this way. I mean I wouldn’t have met my boys if it wasn’t for what happened"
Ethan stayed silent for a while but then opened another subject and we talked as we ate and when we were done we payed and got out.
"Okay so what’s the second place?" I asked as Ethan drove, his eyes on the road.
"I think you’re gonna like this" he said and pulled up in front of a carnival
"Seriously?!" I asked with a laugh and Ethan grinned and got out of the car and opened the door for me
"Don’t tell me you don’t like coming here anymore? If I remember correctly you loved Carnivals"
"Yes I did, I still do"
"Good then" he said and walked next to me "What do you want to try first?"
We played several games and had a lot of fun, we even bought a cowboy hat; mine white and his black.
"What game shall we play next?" Ethan asked as we walked, my hand linked through his arm.
"Hmmm" I said pretending to think, though there was only one game left. "That one"
"Yes ma’am" he said in a fake country accent, tipping his hat. I laughed and we walked to the stand
"Shoot three and you get to choose from these" the man behind the counter said pointing to the stuffed bears. I looked at the moving ducks and shrugged grabbing the gun.
I fired six shots and easily hit the six ducks leaving the man at the counter speechless "That means I get 2" I grinned
He nodded and I looked at the prizes "I’ll take the monkey and the panda" I said and he nodded and got them down for me "Thanks"
I handed Ethan the panda to hold and held the monkey myself. What?! I love monkeys "you know it supposed to be the other way around" Ethan said with an amused smile
"What is?"
"I should be the one winning you the teddy bear"
I laughed "But where would be the fun in that?" I asked as we walked out of the carnival
"I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; you’re something else Lily Marison"
"You better believe it Ethan Lytton" I said as we walked from the carnival to a park close by. .
