Chapter 27: Getting to know the Past.

The first thing Ethan’s older siblings ask when Ethan practically beg them to let me stay the night was….

“Is she pregnant?” I was mortified and Ethan mouth dropped in disbelief until he regained his composure jumping in the air screaming no repeatedly.

“Well, then why can’t she stay at her house?” His sister asked, and then the hour long story of our romance started from the first time we met to my lunatic father kicking his own daughter out of the house. His sibling remained silent the whole time not even interrupting to tell us how stupid we were. By the time we had finished his older brother got up telling us he needed a drink and for his sister to decide what she thought what was necessary.

I felt like a burden. I never felt so ashamed right now. It felt like my pride cease to exist when I practically begged her to let me say. I felt horrible. Both the siblings looked tired as if they worked the whole day. They both look defeat and look like they could barely afford ends meet, and here comes another person moving into their house.

“She would only be here for a month. There’s only one month of summer left and then we are both heading off to college.” Ethan said trying to reason with his sister.

“You won’t have to worry about me. I have some money left over and I could pay you back for letting me stay here plus I could cook and clean. Help you around the house.” I stated fidgeting with my hands.

The sister stared at me with a sad smile planted on her face. “We don’t need you money. Since it is my brother’s fault that you are in this mess then I have no choice, but to take you in. It’s probably the least we can do. But I swear to God Ethan if she does get pregnant because I am letting her stay in this house with absolutely no parental vision I will kill you.” She warned as her eyes shot daggers into Ethan’s skull.

I think in the time I had known Ethan I had never seemed him so embarrass then he was at this moment his whole face was sparkling red. “ I can control myself.” He said in a faint whisper.

The sister smirked in satisfaction. “Good.” Then she faced me with some sort of determination in her eyes. “Ethan will you leave me and Naina alone. I need to talk to her for a second. Woman to Woman.” Ethan looked very hesitant at first until he finally agreed. He squeezed my hand trying to comfort me, but I couldn’t let but have my heart band endlessly against my chest.

After Ethan had fully left the living room his older sister began to speak. “Look Naina, I am going to be completely honest with you. What you are doing to yourself what you are doing to your life is crazy. I get that you are ‘in love’ with my brother…” She said putting quotation mark around in love as if it didn’t mean anything. “But you have known my brother for two months. Do you even know anything about him?”

It was a rhetorical question, but I couldn’t help but wonder did I know anything about the guy I was falling for. “Do you know that our mother passed away? Do you know Ethan wants to go to culinary school? Do you even know what our father did?” She questioned, and each one of her questioned was a no. I didn’t know any other this critical information. I didn’t even Ethan’s mom passed away. How could I not know something as dramatic as that? How could he not tell me? I had exposed my whole life to Ethan, but how could I not know anything about him.

“Look Naina all I am trying to point out is that you are giving up your whole life for my brother. For god sakes you are giving up your family for him claiming that you love him, and it’s a possibility you could really love him and we could be wrong, but in all seriousness Naina are you willing to give up your parents for a guy that might not be worth it at the end. Look Naina I am not trying to be the bad guy I am super excited that my brother has finally had the courage to ask you out after years of liking you. I just don’t want you to feel that you have to do this for my brother just because he feels this way about you. Do it for you. Don’t ruin your life for him. If Ethan really cared about you  I don’t think he would have let your father kick you out of your house. I think he would have given you the choice of telling him. I am only telling you this because I don’t have both my parents Naina, and I wouldn’t want the same thing happening to you.”  Her green eyes stung in to my brown eyes as if desperately asking me to go back to my house right now and forget about Ethan and forget about all of this. To go back to my house and never look back.

But I came too far and cared too much about Ethan to do that.

“Where should I sleep?” I asked. His sister signed in defeat and pointed to the room down the hall.

***

Ethan tossed the pillows on the floor as he made his small bed on the floor. He was slowly blowing up his bed while I sat in the corner of his bed tugging at the end of my shirt. Ethan insisted that I sleep on his bed while he took the floor even though I volunteered to sleep on the floor.  Ethan’s room wasn’t what I was expecting. It was too clean to be a boy’s room, and it was too plain for someone like Ethan. His room was light blue with black curtains. His bed was queen size matching the curtains and walls. He had a small desk against the corner with a book case with classical novels and trophies surrounding it.

Ethan dropped the mattress on the floor and stare at me with curiosity roaming his eyes. “What did she say?” He asked.

I snapped back up to reality staring at him in confusion. “Huh?”

“What did my sister say to you? Since you got here you haven’t said anything.” I haven’t said anything because I have been to preoccupied wondering the answers to the questions his sister asked me about Ethan.

“Ethan why didn’t you tell me your mom had passed away?” I asked bluntly. Ethan seem to caught off guard with the sudden questioning to his pass, but quickly regained his composure.

“I didn’t know how I could bring that up in a conversation Naina.” He snapped. I took a deep breath not realizing the way I asked the question came out more rudely than expected.

“Ethan it’s just I want to have a future with you. I am dropping my life for you, but I don’t even know you. How can I be in love with someone when I don’t even know the first things about them?” I said desperately. Ethan eyes debated on  what to say or do next, but then he quickly walked towards me sitting down to my level.

He grabbed my hands and stared to rub them with him as he refuse to look me in the eye. “My mother passed away with cancer two years ago. It was the most shocking thing that ever happened to me. My own mother had left me, and most kids aren’t close with their parents but me and my mother had a different relationship. It hit me hard when she passed away and I went into a state of desperation. I wasn’t the only one who gave up on life. My  father also did, drinking continually. I didn’t even realize how bad his drinking got till one day after I finally put my life back together; I came down stairs to see him abusing my sisters. All I could remember was blood everywhere, and my heart stopped. I ran up to him beating him up. I was beating my own father, but what else could I have done. My sister called the police and they took him to jail. For months our family went to trial against our own father. The court found him guilty and my oldest brother basically adopted up being the legal age and all. Both my sibling work their asses out trying to provide for this family. They are giving me a new beginning; a chance for a future.” When he finish it was dead silent in the room. You could probably hear a pin drop if you wanted to.

I didn’t know what to say. What could you say? There was so much I wanted to tell him, but I just couldn’t find the right words. Here is this boy trying to fix me, fix my life when he is just as broken as me and it pained me to know that I couldn’t see him broken, that I couldn’t have helped him.

“Ethan…” I struggled. Ethan eyes snapped to mines and he looked at me sternly.

“Don’t say sorry Naina. Don’t say sorry or telling me it’s okay because it’s not.” He didn’t want me lying to him. He didn’t want to hear the cliché things you hear after someone passes away, so I didn’t say any of those things. I did the complete opposite. I kissed him.

I couldn’t express what I felt. What I wanted to say. So I kissed him to tell him that it was going to be okay. That even though now it seem like your life is over it’s only the beginning. That I am going to be with him. That even though he might think that I might be scared of this relationship because of the baggage he comes with I am not. That I want to help him. That I want to fix him. That I want to be with him. It was a lot to put on a kiss, but it was the only way I could communicate without screwing up.

It was soft almost delicate. As we place one small kiss after another on each other’s lips. Savoring the moments we had with each other. His hands slowly began to linger my body as its slowly trace my spinal cord up and down sending shivers down my body. As time passed the kiss began to become more passion. His tongue licked my bottom lips making me gasp. He took the opportunity to explore my mouth as he slowly place one hand gently on my shoulder forcing my back on to the bed, and never breaking the kiss.

 The kiss was perfect. It felt as if  the rest of the world disappears and it's as if nothing else was ever there. There is only me and Ethan and he was so close that our hearts became one. After a few minutes passed we finally broke gasping for air.

His slowly caressed my cheeks as I played with the ends of his hair. “Thank you.” I whispered.

His eyes swirled with emotion. “For what?”

“For trusting me.”

***

The moment you wake up to see a beautiful pair of eyes staring at you as if memorizing every inch of your dace as if the pairs of eyes are able to look directly in to your soul is a feeling that is in describable. I couldn’t help but let a small smile tug at the end of my lips.

“Morning.” I whispered. Ethan didn’t seem to reply he just pulled our bodies closer together if that was even possible. Our legs tangled with each other underneath the blanket as our chest touched each other.

“Naina, I know right now it doesn’t seem like it, but everything is going to work out for the best.” For the last weeks my life seem like it was falling into pieces, but at this moment I actually believed him.
