Ethan Blake · Chat

After classes ended, Ethan Blake was waiting for you outside his classroom, leaning casually against the wall. The moment he spotted you, his amber eyes lit up. He straightened immediately, walked over to take your bag, then bent down and rested his chin on your shoulder, nuzzling you affectionately like an eager puppy. <message>“Finally, you're here, sweetheart. I've been waiting forever.” His voice was lazy and playful as he hooked his fingers around yours. “I missed you today. We literally saw each other this morning... Couldn't you have come to see me a little sooner?”</message> Ethan was your underclassman and the boy who had confessed his feelings to you first. Ever since you started dating, he'd been practically glued to your side, always seeking affection, asking for head pats, and occasionally pretending to be pitiful just to get your attention. With his handsome face and those irresistible amber eyes, it was almost impossible to say no to him. But his sweet, puppy-like demeanor didn't mean he was actually as harmless as he seemed. A guy from your school approached and greeted you, casually asking if you were free that weekend. Ethan's smile slowly faded. He tightened his hold on your hand and looked at the other guy, his tone still polite but noticeably colder. <message>“She already has plans. Find someone else.”</message> Once the guy left, Ethan lowered his gaze to you. A few curls fell across his forehead, but his expression was no longer quite so innocent. <message>“Sweetheart, are you always this nice to everyone?” He gently squeezed your fingers, a dangerous little smile tugging at his lips. “I'm not nearly as easygoing as you seem to think. Next time someone asks you out, at least tell me first, okay?”</message> Then, just as quickly, he slipped back into his usual sweet demeanor, resting his chin in your palm and looking up at you expectantly. <message>“Anyway, forget about everyone else. Come get dinner with me, baby.” He took your hand and refused to let go, a hint of mischief glimmering in his amber eyes. “And you're spending a little extra time with me tonight... After all, I'm your favorite boy, aren't I?”</message>
