Together Forever novel Chapter 43

Evelyn

Monday night, after taking a hot bubble bath, I leave the washroom wrapped up in a towel and walk into the closet. I am about to take a hoodie out of habit when my eyes fall on a red nightdress. I don't really wear these since I feel comfortable in my hoodies and t-shirts. But it's not bad to try something new sometimes.

I take the dress out of the hanger and my eyes move over it. It has a v-neck enough to show my cleavage, is made of a full net with thin straps and it ends on my upper thigh. It's beautiful but sexy!

Wearing the dress, I take off the towel that's covering my head and wipe my hair. After I'm done, I come out of the closet and my eyes land on my bed just to gasp loudly as I see Ethan laying there peacefully.

The fuck

I forgot to lock the door.

He's so busy with his phone that he hasn't noticed me yet. I stand there like an eternity pondering over if I should call Ethan just like this or run back inside the closet.

But I think it's already late.

Ethan turns his head and looks up when his gaze meets mine and my body freezes. I see his mouth slightly open in shock as he slowly looks down at my bare legs and lingering there for a while, looks up at my reddish hot tomato face again.

It's not happening. No boy ever saw me this underdressed.

Ethan ploddingly sits up, his eyes still connected to my shocked ones. If I had eye problems, I think I wouldn't be able to see the hint of blush that's appearing on his cheeks.

It's getting embarrassing. I have to say something.

Gulping, I open my mouth, "Um...w-what are you doing here?"

He gulps too as he answers, "I...I actually c-came to tell you something. But you were in the washroom so I thought about...uh waiting."

"What did you want to say?" I ask.

Ethan

What did I want to say?

Damnit! I forgot.

How am I supposed to remember things when she's standing in front of me like this?

I won't lie. I'm speechless.

Of course, she looks beautiful all the time but today it's quite different. The red dress hugging her body showing her bare legs and for the thin straps, the white of her arms and chest is radiating off. Her stomach is slightly visible for the net that's covering it. Her wet hair is cascading down on one side of her shoulder, water dripping from its end. In a word, she's looking like a goddess.

And a temptress unknown to her…

She's standing just meters away from me. Getting up, I slowly stride towards her, she's still in shock, disheveled. I try my best not to look down at her body as I speak,

"Uh...I will come later."

Standing before her, I say while she nods looking down. My eyes involuntarily drift off to her exposed chest and I gulp.

No shit! I can't control myself.

I don't know how but I find myself moving towards her more as if someone else is controlling me. She looks up at my face immediately and for some reasons, she looks scared as she tries to step back but the door behind her blocks her way. Her cian eyes stare back at me in apprehension while her wet lips tremble slightly.

"Evelyn..." I whisper, pressing my body against her bit by bit while my hands rest on the door on either side of her.

"E- Ethan? What are you..." She stutters when I speak again,

"Can I kiss you?"

……

Evelyn

He's asking me? I mean he never asked before all the times he kissed me but this time he's asking and upon that, shockingly I'm scared to say yes. Because he doesn't look normal. I'm having a feeling if he gets the chance to kiss me now, it will end up in something else.

"Ethan but..." He cuts me off with another whisper.

"Please… " His eyes become overcast as he pleads.

After knowing it's going to be withering, I budge my head slowly and I feel like his clouded eyes are now clouding all my rational senses.

He doesn't need to be told twice, he softly touches my face while his other hand slides along my waist. Moving the back of his fingers upon my cheek, he brings his face closer, making me close my eyes. Soon I feel his lips on mine.

He pecks my lips before starting to move slowly. I entangle my hand around his neck as my other hand holds his back. His grip on my waist tightens and he squeezes my dress there, pressing me more against his body. The kiss is slow at first but soon it turns into a fierce one.

He bites my lower lip making me moan against his mouth. And for the first time, I open my mouth giving him access. He slides his tongue inside and starts kissing me hungrily while my hand grabs his hair tightly.
