Chapter 18
River P.O.V
Birthdays are something I dread. I hate them. I hated them when I was little as well because of our
finical problems. All they meant was a new age, new mistakes, attempted beginnings, new births, and
the horrifying one, deaths.
A sudden knock gets me to snap into realization as Aiden comes rushing in with a smile revealing his
pearly white teeth and his precious little dimples.
" Happy Birthday, happy birthday,” he yells jumping on the bed in a curricular motion which causes me NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
to smile widely and engulf him in a huge hug.
“Aren’t you the cutest thing ever,” I say beginning to tickle him.
“No-dont......call me cute.”
“Alright, your a handsome little man,“I say in a joking manner.
" If it was not your birthday I would be mad. I’m just telling you this so you know next time.“He says
walking off the bed,“Now get dressed Michael says Ethan is coming to get you at 6:00 and its like 3:00
now.”
“What?“I ask in shock.
" If you want to know more ask Michael because I would not know I am just the messenger.” He says
closing the door behind him and without much thought, in the manner, I collapsed in a playful way on
my bed.
Oh, my God, this can not be happening. Ethan is actually going to take me out. Ok Ok Ok, I was acting
like a giddy teen on her first date with her high school crush.
I shower, I wrap a towel around my body and began to rummage through my closest and then finally I
decided on a loose light blue dress, white flats, and a white cargo to go with the dress. I put light make
up on, warped my hair into a braid, then finally grabbed my purse to match when the door rang causing
my heart to skip a beat.
So I rush out and down the stairs to find Ethan standing there with a smile and his ocean blue eyes
sparkling with happiness. He was wearing a black tux that aligned with his abs. The sight of him
caused butterflies in my stomach.
" You look....you look gorgeous,” he says and his choice of words cause me to blush at the sight of this
he smirks,” Are you ready to leave.”
“Yup,“I say trying not to sound overly excited but I could not help myself. When he’s around I’m
different in many ways.Ethan brings out a new side of me that I’m still exploring myself.He opens the
door of the passenger side of the car for me and I hop in as he shuts my side and runs to the driver’s
seat.He starts the engine and were off.
“Where are we going?” I say anxiously and he just smirks,“Where are we going?“I say louder
“Its a surprise.”
“No no no please tell me. I really want to know now.” I demand to look at him which causes him to
laugh this time.
“God your so impatient River you will find out soon.I promise.“He says putting his hand on mine
causing my heart to flutter. I’m so happy I feel like nothing can destroy our happiness but I know there
are a lot of unresolved issues like how I’m getting attached to Ethan and this baby scratch that OUR
BABY. This is our baby. This baby is apart of me I do not know how I will have the urge to even think of
giving he or she up. But for now, I wanted to forget about all those issues and focus on us.
Soon enough we stop in front of a big fancy restaurant by the ocean that has see-through windows and
he pulls his hand from mine.Which makes me a little disappointed but I knew he was just going around
to open the car door for me. I step out and Ethan extends his arm out for me and I put my hand in his
while he interlaces them causing a tingle in my core. I know this night was going to be unforgettable.I
feel like this is one of the happiest days of my life. We walk into the restaurant and Ethan says
something to the waiter and the waiter takes us upstairs.
" Follow me.” The waiter says as politely as possible.He took us into a bright flower decorated hallway
with open doors to an elevator at the end,“Ladies first.“The waiter states, making me smile and Ethan
just smiled as well.It took us three floors and we finally reached the top floor revealing the beautifully
decorated balcony with rose petals everywhere. There was one big circular table in the middle with two
candles decorated with red roses.The minute we sat down different waiters then began to walk in
putting many dishes on the table.
“River.” Ethan says while staring into my eyes,” I don’t know where to start because ever since you
have walked into my life it has changed in so many ways I can not even express in words. You let me
feel things that I have not felt in many years and some even I haven’t felt at all. You’re beautiful and not
just in one way but in many other ways.“He took a deep breath and placed his hand on mine causing
shivers to run down my spine.“I love you and I want to be with you and I do realize I said it would never
happen but it sort of snuck up on me without me even realizing.”
I am speechless whatever I say will never add up to what he just said. All I know is soon enough if he
continued to talk to me like that I was going jump his bone and nothing would stop me.
I couldn’t help but smile at the thought. It made me smile so widely I began to blush while saying,“I lo-,”
he gets up immediately before I finish my words and smashes his lips on mine.
