15. Insecure

I'm already lying on my bed. Though my body wanted to sleep now but my mind and heart says otherwise. I smile as I remember what happened a while ago. I still can't believe that I'm engaged now. It feels surreal. My smile widen when my gaze fell on my left hand. The ring looks perfect on my finger.

To look further on its design, I tried to remove it on my finger. But to my surprise, I can't pulled it away. It's weird. I tried for several times, but I failed. It just made my finger reddened. Maybe, I'll ask Ethan about it tomorrow. With that, I fell asleep while thinking about the ring.

A soft knock on my bedroom door woke me up. I rubbed my eyes to adjust in my surroundings. I can see that it's already six in the morning. I still have two hours before my class starts. I'm still lying in my bed as a smile drawn upon my face as I remember my Ethan. Yes, mine.

"Yong Lady." I hear Wallace's voice outside my room. He was probably the one knocking on my door a while ago.

"Wallace?"

"Are you already awake, Young Lady?"

"I am. Why?" I got confused. Usually, they are just waiting me to get out of my room every morning. They never knocked on my door to wake me up.

"You have a visitor outside." His voice sounded grim. I slowly got off from my bed and went to the door. I opened it not minding that I'm still in my pajamas. "Who is it?" I asked curiously. Wallace face is very serious.

"The boy before."

"Boy? Who?"

"The boy in a motorcycle who we accidentally bumped in your first day here." He sounded pissed but I ignored it. What got my attention was my Ethan is here.

"Ethan? He's here?" He nodded unsurely. I got off from my spot and run down through the stairs in my excitement.

"Young Lady! Do not run! For God's sake!" I didn't mind him. I just run faster. I am on the last step when I got tripped. I closed my eyes in anticipating the impact but two arms snaked on my waist.

"Winter Ysabella!" That voice sent shivers on my skin. I smiled in my mind.

"Ethan." I murmur as I lean more closely to him. I love this feeling around him.

"You're not listening!" Though he sounded pissed, it also laced with worry and fear. "Do not ever run again like that! You understand, Snow White?" His voice softened as he called his endearment to me. I pulled away from him to see his face.

"I'm sorry, my king." I whispered while looking in his eyes. He caress my cheeks. I love his touch.

"I don't know what to do if I lose you." He kissed my forehead and hugged me so tight. We stayed like that for a few minutes when we heard a loud cough behind us.

"Young Lady." Wallace called me. He walked to wards us and glared at my boyfriend. "Your breakfast is ready."

"Thanks, Wallace." I smiled brightly at him and his face softened.

"Please also wear this." He raised his both hands to show my robe. My cheeks felt heated as I remember that I am just wearing my sleeping wear – my pink silky sleeveless and pajama pants. Though it is decent, I still felt embarrassed.

"Oh!" I immediately got my robe from Wallace and wear it. I look at Ethan. He is staring at me seriously. "Ethan?"

"Come." Though I'm confuse I still walk towards him.
