Chapter 87

EMMA

I was stunned. I opened my mouth to say something but each time I opened my mouth, I found myself speechless. I didn’t know what to say to him.

Sean just confessed to liking me just as I’ve been liking him. He said the word and this was it yet I couldn’t say anything back

to him.

I men tally screamed for myself to speak up but I just couldn’t find the word. Sean likes me and he was standing face to face with me wanting to know how I felt but I wasn’t saying anything,

“What are the both of you doing here?” Ethan’s deep voice startled me as I didn’t expect him to come and why does he always have to come when we don’t need him? Why does he keep showing up?

I glared at him. “What are you doing here?” I asked.

“What am I doing here? I am going to my room that’s why and why are the both of you standing here? What were you both discussing?” Ethan asked inquisitively and that didn’t sit well with me because why does he want to know?

“You do realize that’s none of your business right? Since you are on your way to your room then take yourself and go to your room.” I replied.

“You always have to create drama each time. Anyways I wasn’t asking you, I was asking Sean,” Ethan replied.

“Don’t change it and besides Sean and I have something to talk about that is none of your business so try to not ask any more questions,” I said.

“I want to speak to Sean,” he said.

“Excuse me you suddenly want to speak to him because I want to speak to him? Why are you doing all of this? Why don’t you just go to your room as you wanted?”

“As you can see, Sean is my friend and I want to speak to him and I’m sure you have nothing to say to me. The only reaso you suddenly want to speak to him is because you know I want to speak to him,” Ethan replied.

1 scoffed at his response. What is wrong with him? Now it all made sense to me. He’s the one that’s keeping Sean away from me and he’s using his friendship as a means to prevent Sean from getting closer to me.

“You talk like he’s not my friend too. And what’s your problem, Ethan? Stop making me angry! Stop doing this and you know what?” I sighed, exhausted that I was having this conversation.

“If you want to speak to him then please do. I’m not forcing you. I don’t have the time for any of this anyway. You are free to do whatever okay? You are free! You are unbearable and I wish we weren’t related because you make me angry!” I uttered in anger before walking away not wanting to have any conversation with him.

as filled up

Later that evening, students from the school began to come. In no time the poolside of my parent’s mansion was with students in their bikinis

I was watching from my room balcony. I haven’t seen Ethan and Sean ever since I left them and I didn’t want to see them – together.

“That makes sense. Ethan your brother is a jerk. I don’t even know why girls fall for him. He keeps showing how commanding he can be and annoying too,” Lola complained.

I just explained to her what happened and how annoying Ethan can be.

Chapter 87

“This proves that indeed he’s the reason Sean has not taken any actions. But why is Sean even bothered by him? I mean if he doesn’t want to be friends with him because he’s with you then so be it. He needs to make Ethan know that he’s stu pid!” Lola complained bitterly and I understood her.

“It’s so funny how he was never like this and suddenly he’s like this. I have no idea what to say. I honestly don’t know what to say to him. He keeps making me angry and I am close to cutting him off from my life,” 1 complained bitterly.

“It’s going to be alright. Don’t let him ruin your mood after all Sean confessed to liking you. It would be nice if Sean does the needful and claim you before it’s too late because I’m sure other males want to be your friend. The faster he moves, the better it will be for the both of you.”

“I’m just tired of him bossing me around. I’m tired of everyone but I’m going to be fine. It will be alright and that’s for sure.” I said.

I spotted Serena and Darcy as they made their way into the pool They had all the boy’s eyes on them. It was expected as they love attention and would do anything to get it

The boys were cheering and hailing them as they went into the pool and honestly, I expected nothing but nasty things from. them.

“Serena! Serena! Serena!” They hailed as she began to dance in the pool.

“Alright, everyone! It’s time to party!” Ethan screamed and everyone cheered.

“I think I will have to go down the stairs and enjoy the party with them, don’t you think?” Lola said and I nodded my head. She walked away leaving me alone in my room balcony.

The only reason I allowed this pool party was because I wanted to speak to Sean. He already told me of his feelings for me and I couldn’t wait to continue the conversation with him hopefully this time around, Ethan doesn’t come to interrupt or I promise that I will break his neck.

I heard a neck on my door snapping me out of my thoughts. When I tilted my head to see who it was it was evident the figure already walked in, it was Sean and I felt my stomach rumble in joy.

I was thinking about him and he suddenly appeared.

“Hey.” He said.

“Hi, I replied.

He walked closer to me and soon he was standing by me at the balcony.

“You seem to be having a good view from up here. It’s better from her I’d say. How are you feeling?” He asked.

“As you can see I’m good,” I replied.

“About Ethan the other time, he can be very annoying, he stated

“And you keep tolerating him.” I replied.

“I don’t actually. You just won’t understand,” he said.

“And have you explained to me and I didn’t understand?” I questioned.

“Not really,” he replied.

“So good. We were both having a discussion and then he popped up and said he wanted to speak to you when he stated earlier that he was going to his room. Why didn’t you refuse to speak to him? You make it seem like you are scared of

something and there’s something he has that he can use against you,” I remarked.

He chuckled. “Well, that’s not the case. I can assure you that you are wrong.”

“And are you sure? I mean why can’t you deny him when you don’t want to speak to him? Are you scared of Ethan knowing about your feelings for me? I need answers.”

I watched as he sighed deeply, running his finger through his hair.

“I don’t even know how to start?” He finally said.

“Well, every book has a start and also an end so you can also start from any angle. So which are we talking about first?” I questioned.

“Let’s talk about the kiss on your birthday.” He said.

“Good. Because I was looking forward to having that conversation as it was where it all started.”

“I like you, Emma. I don’t just like you as a friend but more. I want to be more than a friend,” he confessed.

“Then what’s stopping you?” I asked.

“A lot. It’s not like I cannot handle it but it’s…” he trailed off.

“Is it Ethan? You don’t have to lie because I know that he has something to do with it. It’s the only logical reason why you would avoid me after kissing me and making me feel like trash.”

“It’s…”

“Can you stop it already? Just speak on it already. What’s happening? I would not want us to be together if you’d end up a chicken each time you see Ethan and if you can’t do what it is that a boyfriend should do.” I cut him off.

I can tolerate a lot of things but not my boyfriend going mute each time I want to speak to him.

The truth is Ethan and I made a promise to ourselves. I cannot get close to his sister or see her more than a sister. It is against it. He found out who my crush was some years back and ever since he made me stay away from you as he threatened to never be my friend if I made a love.” He confessed.

“Ethan is sick!”

“I don’t want to be with you and strain my friendship with him. I want to be with you with his approval and that’s why I’m trying my best to make things work out well, I want to make everything right. I don’t want to strain it and come between the both of you.

“If I am to date you. I want his blessings because he’s my best friend.” He explained and hearing him say that made me annoyed.

Does he realize that he cannot please Ethan? Does he realize that no matter what he does, Ethan will always want to have control? Does he realize that while trying to please Ethan he’s hurting me?

Does he

“Are you hearing yourself?”

“Do you even know what you are saying? So you kissed me because you felt like but won’t take a step that displeases Ethan? Do you choose the girls Ethan gets involved with? Do you?” I was p issed, I was trying to keep my cool.

At this point, I wasn’t even mad at Ethan, I was mad at him because he sounded pathetic. He just wanted to please Ethan.

“Just save it There’s nothing you can say now that will convince me so save yourself the stress. The Ethan you are trying so hard to please doesn’t care about you. I don’t even know why you are trying hard to please him for f uck sake!” I cursed out in anger.

“Listen to me,” he said trying to come closer but I took some steps back to avoid me.

“Don’t! Don’t!”

“I cannot believe this. Because Ethan doesn’t want you dating his sister, you’d rather..

“Can you please listen to me first?” He cuts me off.

“I am not trying to please Ethan. I don’t want to date you and have to sneak around. I don’t want to date you and cannot hold you in public. I want to date you and show you off. I want to date you and have everyone know that you are mine. I don’t want to do something that makes it seem like I don’t care about your feelings and f uck Ethan at this point!” He cursed. moving closer to me.

“You know what? F uck the rules and f uck what anyone has to say This moment is for the both of us and at this point, I will be doing only what I want, and what I want is you, Emma. I only want you.”

He was standing barely an inch away from me while staring deep into my eyes. I shuddered from his magnetic blue eyes and how they pulled me towards him. I could easily drown in his eyes.

“I want Emma. I want you to be mine and that’s all that matters to me,” he cupped my face in his hand while caressing my cheek with his thump.

I was honestly wowed by his sudden confession and I liked it.

“I want you to Sean.” I replied and he claimed my lips almost immediately.
