When I met you.. ||(completed)||

Chapter 39

Jane's POV:
I cried into Ethan's arms as he rubbed my back, I hate crying, I hate looking weak but I couldn't help it. I felt betrayed, and I had a pretty damn good reason to do so.

"Let's go back to the hotel Jane" Ethan whispered in my ear.

I only nodded and before I could stand up, he carried me in his arms and started walking towards our hotel location.

"Let's just get a taxi or something" I said gripping his shirt.

"No, it's okay, walking will give you time to calm down" he replied.

"Aren't you gonna get tired?" I asked looking up.

"That gets us to our next subject! You're too thin, you're practically as light as a small cat, my school bag is probably heavier than you!" he said jokingly.

I couldn't help but smile at his silliness as I buried my face in his chest, his warmth relaxing me.

"Stop acting all lovey dovey, it makes me wanna throw up" Brandon grunted, trying to lighten up the mood.

"It's not my fault you're too much of a coward to confess" I mumbled, rolling my eyes.

"You!"

We all started laughing and for a second, I forgot what happened a few minutes earlier.

"Seriously Brandon, just tell her. She feels the same way" I said after the laughter died down.

"How would you know?" he mockingly asked.

"Do you know who you're talking to?" I replied raising an eyebrow.

He just mumbled something under his breath, not wanting to admit I'm right.

"Fine, I'll do it" he whispered loud enough for us to hear.

I jumped out of Ethan's arms as I ran towards Brandon, hugging him tightly.

"That's what I wanted to hear!" I practically yelled out.

I was extremely excited, probably too excited but Brandon didn't mind as he hugged me back for a second before pulling away, however, he didn't push me off and just kept me close to him.

"Care to tell us who the mystery girl is?" Beth asked, smiling, but her eyes showed sadness.

"You'll find out soon enough" I replied smirking.

"She asked me!" Brandon yelled, faking anger.

"Don't get jealous because I'm more popular than you are" I said smirking again.

"In what aspect?" he challenged.

"In all aspects, I have higher following, people recognize me on the streets, I'm more popular among boys than your are among girls, I literally met you guys a couple of months ago but they already like me more than you, and you've been their friend for like years and kids like me more"

They all just laughed and Brandon just carried me up and threatened to throw me in the pond.

Suddenly, I felt myself get lifted and I saw Ethan holding me above his head.

"How come y'all are so strong?" I asked.

"You're just too thin" Ethan replied in a dull monotone voice.

"Why so glum Ethan dearest?" I asked in a British accent.

He carried me on his back and didn't say anything.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and placed my head on his back.

"What's wrong?" I asked again, concern obvious in my voice.
