Anna POV

My new paycheck relies on it.

Ethan brought me to a huge table full of food. It was all your standard cookout fare. Hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, and dips covered the whole table. It smelled great. If I wasn't so worried, I would be pigging up right now.

"So what do you like?" Ethan grinned at me.

"What choices do I have?"

"Looks like we have...burgers, hot dogs, grilled corn. And....some type of mysterious noodles?" He chuckled, picked up the dish of noodles, and looked at it careful

    Anna POVI reach back and palm him through his boxers. Slipping my hand down the fabric, I grab his length and begin to pump him slowly."Fuck, I'm going to come if you continue to do that." He shudders. "Do you have a condom?" I ask, still sucking on the skin of his neck. I'm going to leave a mark, I'm sure. I want everyone to see it. I want Haley to fucking see it. I want everyone to see the mark I'm leaving and know that he is mine. No one else can have him. He freezes under me. "Fuck...no." He says, pulling away to look at me. "I think I might have one in my purse," I admit, reaching over onto the side table and searching through the bag. I can feel him holding his breath as I search, not wanting to disappoint him and myself by not finding one. I feel the cool foil against my fingertips and quickly pull it out and toss my purse onto the floor. "Found one," I say, holding it up with a smirk. "Should I even ask why you have a condom in your purse?" he chuckles. "For moments l

    Anna POV"I'm going to get my phone back eventually, and I will see these pictures!" I yell, shrieking when he reaches over with his other hand and tries to tickle me to stop me from reaching for my phone. "Stop!" I scream with a laugh. "Nope! Not until you tell me that you won't try and find my high school pictures!" He laughs, moving us so that he is hovering over us and continuing his tickling assault."I just want to see them!" I laugh."I am going to continue to tickle you, then!" He laughs in reply, tickling me even harder.I try to wiggle away from him and end up pulling the both of us off of the couch and onto the floor, his body now on top of mine, and my phone is thrown across the room."Did you just throw my phone across the room?" I exclaimed, amused by the shock covering my face."Yes." He laughs, not moving from his spot."Was it that big of a deal?" I giggle."Again, yes. Absolutely." We stay in our spot for a few seconds, just looking at each other. He's so...perfect

    Anna POV"Nope!" she says, jumping out of her seat and running towards the door."Be careful! I love you!" "I love you too! Bye, Eth!" She waves as she leaves the house. I go to the front door and watch her happily run over to Natasha's van. Despite the joy I feel knowing that she has friends and that our dad's death isn't affecting her too negatively, I can't help but feel sad knowing that she's growing up. She is going to do this more often as she gets older, and I'm going to be alone in this house more. It's inevitable. "It's good that she is making friends. I'm really glad that she's dancing, too. That seems like something that she will be good at," Eth says to me as I walk back into the kitchen. "Yeah, I am too," I mumble, sitting down and taking another bite of my pizza. "Do you want something to drink? I'm thirsty," I say, getting up once again and walking to our refrigerator. "Umm, yeah. I could go for a drink. What do you have?" He asks."Let's see. It looks like we have a

    Anna POV"Pizza is fine with me if that's what you want, love," Eth tells her, earning a big smile from Phoebe.We walk to my car in silence for the most part as I mentally prepare myself for what will be the most awkward lunch date in history. "Can we get pepperoni pizza?" Phoebe whispers to me."No. Eth is a vegetarian, remember? Which means, what?" I ask her, trying to remind her once again that he does not eat meat."He doesn't like animals," Phoebe says simply.Eth chuckles at her reply, and I do the same. Phoebe has a way of making things a little less awkward. Thank God.“I love animals. That's why I don't eat them." He laughs, winking at me. I blush at his gesture, even though there was absolutely no romantic gesture behind it."I love animals, too. I want cheese pizza." Phoebe says simply."Baby, just because you eat meat doesn't mean you hate animals. We can get pepperoni pizza. I'll even try a slice." He tells her, knowing that Phoebe doesn't like plain cheese pizza."You

    Anna POVOut of all the times that I blamed him for not putting his money into anything, I disregarded the amount of money he was still paying toward her medical expenses. I should have given him more credit. He did deserve it. I'll have to find a steady job so I can keep food on the table and clothes on our backs. I don't even know if I'll have time for school anymore. I want to cry. I want to break down and cry right here, but I can't even find it in myself to do that. I have to stay strong for Phoebe.But who is going to stay strong for me?We were leaving the church when I heard him call my name."Anna! "I turned around to see James jogging towards us. Phoebe gripped my hand softly, and I smiled down at her to the best of my ability. "I just wanted to say that I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." He said, out of breath and staring at me with sad eyes."Thank you, James." I smile at him."Are you going to be okay?""Yeah, I think so," I assure him. I have to be."If you need anything, you'll

    Ethan's POV"I should probably go into the other room now." She says, leaning up and uncovering herself from the white comforter."Wait, don't go." "No, this was a bad idea. I should get back into the other room. Phoebe is probably—""Phoebe is fine. She knows where we are. Please, Anna," I beg, sounding like the pathetic fuck that I am."Eth...""Please, Anna. I need you right now. I just...I need you. "I admit to feeling completely fucking defeated.She sighs and moves back into the bed with me. I pull her closer to me by instinct, and she tenses under my touch. I try and ignore it, but it breaks my fucking heart."I know you don't trust me, Anna. I know you might not ever trust me again. But I promise that I will try every day to be the man you thought I was. I fucked up, and I'm sorry," I whisper into her back. She didn't reply, but I didn't expect her to. "Get some sleep. You need it," I told her. Although she never replies to me verbally, she does something better than what I

    Anna POV Ethan! She isn't even cute. I mean, seriously? I'm way smaller than she is, too. Great rebound, sweetie." She laughed, looking at him as though he was crazy. "Haley!" Ethan yelled over her, offended by his ex's words. "Don't get too close, honey. He may have a nice face, but his persona

    Anna POVRemember when Ethan said 'he has a small house about two miles away' from his parent's house? Yeah, well if a two-story house with a ton of land is his idea of a small house, then I don't even know what he thinks qualifies as a large house."I'm glad you had this idea. I would have died fr

    Anna POV"Thank you again for bringing us here today," I repeated for what had to be the fifteenth time today. He chucked and gave my hand a little squeeze. "It was my pleasure. I haven't been to the zoo in probably twelve years. I tend to forget how cool it can be." He admitted. "It's only this

    Anna POV"Phoebe! Put your shoes on, Ethan is outside waiting for us." I spoke to the four-year-old playing on the floor. She turns five in about a week, and she is so excited. "Where are we going?" She groaned, not wanting to get up yet. "Somewhere fun. Now come on!" I laughed at her pouts, know
