Ethan's POV
It's been a few days since I have recovered. Damian took care of me when I was ill, it felt nice. My mom has been very busy ever since my dad passed away. Don't get me wrong it's not like she neglects me or anything but I didn't use to say anything to her whenever I fell sick or wanted comfort. She already had too much on her plate already and I didn't want to trouble her more.
My sister already hates me so I am used to handle things on my own. But when he took care of me those two days I felt warm. He is so sweet and yet demanding. I like the way he smirks and makes me blush. The way he sends my heart racing. The way his eyes crinkle when he laughs, I can listen to his laugh everyday. I like his smile, I like it when he calls me Kitten.
Honestly I like everything about him. I like him.
Oh My God. I like him.
My eyes grow wide at the realization. I jump on my bed, why didn't I realize it earlier. Oh God. What should I do? What if he finds out. Ugh, This is so confusing. I need Riley, I picked up my phone and called her. It went to voice mail. Where is this girl when I need her. I sighed, 'I'll talk with her tomorrow' with that thought in mind I went to sleep.
I woke up early and got ready for college. We had our breakfast and mum dropped me off. I rushed to my class and took my seat. I checked my phone, there weren't any messages. I once again called her, this time she picked up.
"Where are you?" was the first thing I asked. "I'm on my way, I'll be arriving in a few" "Alright, come fast" I said and hung up.
She arrived after 5 minutes and took her seat beside me. "Why did you hang up on me?" she asked. "Why didn't you call back yesterday" I asked instead of answering. "Because you always call back or reply to my messages" she retorted. I rolled my eyes. I don't really call her back either nor reply that frequently but oh well.
"I was in my classes and my battery died" she finally answered my question. I nodded. "I have something to tell you" she gave me her full attention, I took it as the cue to go on.
"Ilikedamian" I rushed out.
"Woah, slow down" she said leaning closer so that she could hear me properly. "I like Damian" This time I said is slowly. She looked at me for a sec and then grinned. "Finally!" she shouted which grabbed the attention of some students. I quickly placed my hand over her mouth. "Calm down will you!?" I said.
She nodded her head and I let go of her. "Okay okay, sorry. What took you so long to realize it?" I shrugged.
"So..." she started and looked at me. "What?" I asked. "When are you going to say it to him?" she asked. My eyes went wide, "Why will I say it to him? What will he think? He doesn't even like me and he's straight. He's dating my sister remember?" She scoffed.
"Have you seen the way he looks at you? It doesn't seems 'straight' to me. He totally likes you, trust me. Just say that you like him. Simple." She said. I shook my head "No he doesn't like me, how can you be so sure?" I asked her and Damian entered the class.
Once again he looked at me and smiled and started with the lesson. I looked at Riley, she looked like she was thinking something. She looked at me and grinned. I knew she got an idea, you could even see the light bulb over her head, it was almost comical. I slowly shook my head 'no', giving her a warning glare silently saying not to try anything. But she just ignored it and smirked at me. I groaned, I'm officially doomed.
She suddenly moved her chair closer to me. I looked at her weird before continuing to pay attention to what Damian was teaching. Riley hooked her arm with mine, what is this girl up to now. "What are you doing?" I whispered, she just giggled. She freaking giggled.
Riley then leaned next to my ear and whispered "You'll see, continue, with your work" I don't know what us she up to but I still nodded anyway. I looked forward to see Damian already looking my way but he was staring at Riley's arm around mine. I was about to pull away but Riley had a string grip "Don't pull yet" she whispered. "Why he's staring" I whispered back. She giggled "I know, that's why I said don't pull"
I looked back at him, he didn't look too happy. Was she trying to make him jealous? "Are you trying to make him jealous?" I voiced my thoughts. "Bingo".
She then leaned closer to my ears and spoke "Yes boo and he's clearly jealous, now let's see what does he do" I blushed.
As if on cue "Class Dismissed" we heard, today louder than usual. "Ethan, stay I need to discuss some things with you" I nodded. Riley smirked "Thank me later" she mouthed and walked away after waving at me. I looked at him Damian. Thank her? I feel like I'm in a lot of trouble judging by the look on his face.
I made my way towards him. After everyone had left, he got up from his chair and in the blink of an eye, he stood in front of me. "What were you doing Kitten hm?" I shook my head. "Words Kitten" he said in a dominating tone.
"n-nothing s-sir" He smirked, "Really, then what was that hm?" he moved closer to me, I took a step back. "tell me Kitten" he took another step closer to me, and I took another back, "were you trying to make me jealous hm?" he continued to come closer with me taking a step back each time until my back hit the wall. I gulped.
I wanted to turn away but he placed his arm next to my head preventing my movement. "Hm, kitten?" he asked caressing my face. I shook my head "n-no w-we....i-it wasn't like t-that" I said shuttering, I couldn't possibly tell him.
"Then why was she so close to you hm?" "s-she's my best friend and b-besides I'm g-gay" I said. He looked at me and chuckled "Oh Kitten, that doesn't mean she gets to be like that with you" he said. You could clearly say he is jealous.
He placed his other hand on my waist "You are Mine Kitten, Mine. Only I can be this close to you" he said possessively. A good kind of possessive and I liked it. I could just nod in answer. "Words baby" he said and I blushed. "Y-yes S-sir" I answered. Did he just call me Baby? Oh My God.
He leaned closer to me and buried his face in my neck. He inhaled and looked at me in the eyes "Mine" he said. I blushed a shade darker. "Come, let me take you home" he said. I nodded and he grabbed my hand and we exited the class room.
