Chapter191- Into the Water

Katelyn’s POVI was packing up my things in the newsroom when my phone vibrated with a new message. I expected another work text, but instead, it was from Lucas. He didn’t usually contact me at this time, so I stopped and read his message right away. The words were short and a little strange: “Can you check on Dad? He’s not answering my calls.”I stared at the words, feeling uneasy. Ethan wasn’t the type to ignore Lucas. Even during his busiest days, he would send at least a quick “I’m fine.” My heart skipped. I texted back, I’ll go check now, grabbed my purse, and hurried out of the building without saying goodbye to anyone.The drive to Ethan’s was quiet. My mind kept replaying every conversation I’d had with him over the past few days. He’d seemed tired, but not sick. Had he caught something again? Had something happened at work? By the time I pulled up to his house, worry was twisting my stomach into knots.It was almost dark outside. Ethan’s house stood quiet, windows dark exc

Chapter192-Unspoken Feelings

Katelyn’s POVAfter making sure Ethan was safe and settled in bed, I took a deep breath. I checked my phone. There were missed calls and messages from work, but right now, I just wanted to be sure Ethan was okay. I cleaned up the rest of the bathroom, wrung out my wet shirt, and finally sat down at the edge of Ethan’s bed, looking at him as he lay there, eyes half closed, still looking a little weak but alert.My phone buzzed again. I glanced at the screen. It was Gray calling. I didn’t want to answer, but I felt it might be important. I picked it up. “Hello?”Gray’s calm voice filled the room. “Katelyn, how are you? I wanted to check on the volleyball girls. Has the school or the TV station followed up with you? Is everyone safe?”I glanced at Ethan as I spoke. “Thanks, Gray. Everything is fine for now. The girls are safe, and the coach is facing consequences. I’m just…dealing with a lot today.”Gray’s tone softened. “Don’t let it all get to you. If you need help or someone to talk

Chapter193-Seen and Remembered

Katelyn’s POVOne evening, Ethan and I went back to his house together. The day had been long, and I felt tired but also strangely at peace. When we stepped inside, I immediately noticed that Ethan had dimmed the lights and set the dining table for two. There were candles in the middle of the table. Their small flames flickered, making the whole living room feel warm and safe. There were no hidden feelings or tension in the air, everything was calm and comfortable. The smell of food drifted from the kitchen. Ethan had cooked dinner for us himself. He served chicken, mashed potatoes, and a simple salad. It wasn’t fancy, but it was exactly what I liked.We sat together and talked as we ate. Ethan looked happy that I enjoyed the food, and I could see the effort he’d put into everything. There was no need for big, fancy words. I simply said, “This is really good, Ethan.” He smiled, and I knew he was pleased, because his eyes softened, and he looked down at his plate, almost shy. We

Chapter 194-The Stepmother’s Outburst

Katelyn’s POVWe’d been at Ethan’s father’s wedding banquet for less than an hour. The private dining room was full of polite conversation and the clatter of forks. Ethan’s father looked happier than I’d ever seen him, his cheeks flushed with wine. For once, Ethan was at ease, sitting beside me and letting me pour him a drink, the two of us trying to blend in with the other guests.I heard the click of heels on marble. Amanda entered the room. Her dress was beautiful, a deep red silk dress, her hair perfectly styled, lips painted to match her dress. But the muscles around her eyes were tense, and she looked like she was very upset and trying not to cry. Her face seemed stiff, as if she was forcing herself to stay calm, but I could tell she was close to breaking down.Ethan saw her first. The easy smile disappeared. Amanda didn’t look at him, but she saw me sitting close by his side. Her eyes narrowed, and for a split second, her expression twisted. She walked past, nodding polite

Chapter195-Guilt and Old Wounds

Katelyn’s POVThe morning after Amanda left the wedding dinner, I woke up feeling unsettled. There was no sense of peace in the house. Instead, it was awkward and a bit tense. Last night, when Amanda left the table, nobody spoke for a while. Ethan’s father barely looked up from his drink. His face looked stiff, like he was holding something in, and his jaw kept tightening. Even his eyes seemed a bit empty, like he wasn’t really there.That memory stayed in my mind when I walked down to the kitchen. I tried to distract myself by making tea, but it didn’t help. I sat at the table, stirring my cup, lost in thought about how people can hide so much pain just by staying silent.Ethan walked in, his hair messy and his eyes tired. He looked like he hadn’t slept much either. “I want to see my dad,” he said quietly. “Will you come with me?”I nodded right away. I wanted to be there for him. I put on my jacket and we left the house together.The drive was quiet. The mood was flat and serious

Chapter196-The First Date

Katelyn’s POVAfter the wedding dinner with Ethan’s father and Amanda, I lay in bed for a long time, thinking about Ethan’s past. Hearing his father admit how much guilt he felt for leaving Ethan behind as a child made me understand Ethan in a way I never had before. Ethan grew up feeling left out, feeling like he didn’t matter to the people who should have cared about him most. That pain never really left him, even now. When I looked at Ethan today, I realized that every time he tried to protect Lucas, every time he tried to show me he cared, it was all because he never wanted Lucas or me to feel that same loneliness.Thinking about this made my own feelings more complicated. I cared about Ethan. I had always hoped he would chase after me, fight for me, really show me he wanted me in his life. For so long, it didn’t seem like he cared enough. Now, with everything that had happened, things were finally changing.I looked at my reflection in the mirror, taking in every detail. My fac

Chapter197-A Real Date, Not an Illusion

Ethan’s POVI spent a long time planning this date, and as I drove through the city streets with Katelyn sitting quietly beside me, I felt a kind of peace that was different from anything I’d felt before. The car was quiet, but it didn’t feel awkward. The silence was easy. Every so often, I’d glance at her out of the corner of my eye. She was looking out the window, her hands folded in her lap, and every once in a while, she’d smile a little, like she was thinking of something funny. I realized I liked this calm feeling with her. The space between us wasn’t empty, it was comfortable. It made me feel safe, as if we didn’t have to force anything.We pulled up in front of a large building with a fancy entrance. The restaurant’s golden lights shone out onto the pavement, and a valet hurried over as soon as we stopped. I got out and walked around to open Katelyn’s door. She was looking at me with a soft, questioning smile.As she stepped out, her hand slipped into mine. “Why are you sm

Chapter198-Under the Stars with You

Katelyn’s POVWhen the car stopped, I was too busy looking at my phone to notice where we were. I only realized something was different when Ethan turned off the engine and stepped out, moving quickly to my side. He opened my door and held out his hand. There was a strange, quiet excitement in his eyes.I stepped out of the car and felt cool air against my face. At first, all I could see was darkness, but as my eyes adjusted, I realized we were standing at the edge of a wide, open meadow. The grass was tall and soft, bending in the night wind. Sprinkled across the field were clusters of flowers, tiny wild daisies, pale pink petals, little blue flowers that looked almost silver under the moon.What stunned me most was the sky. There were more stars than I could count. They filled the sky from one horizon to the other, some bright, some faint, all of them twinkling clearly. I stopped in my tracks. I had never seen a city night so clear, or so wide. For a second, I forgot about ever

Chapter199-He Really Does Know Me

Katelyn’s POVI remember that night like it just happened.The sky had been so clear, like someone had wiped away every cloud just for us. The air was cool, and everything around me felt calm and quiet. Ethan had brought me to a place I’d never seen before. It was an open field filled with soft grass and wildflowers, and above us, countless stars twinkled in the night sky. It wasn’t a place for noise or show. It was a place for peace.I stood beside the car, stunned by the scene in front of me. The stars lit up the sky, and the city lights twinkled in the distance, far below us. Everything felt wide open, clean, and still.Ethan stepped beside me and asked softly, “Do you like it?”I nodded. My voice wouldn’t come out at first. I took a deep breath, letting the fresh air fill my lungs, and walked forward. At the edge of the meadow, I looked down at the city lights blinking like little fireflies. It was beautiful, quiet, and nothing like any date I had ever imagined with him.When I

Chapter200- Not Just Words

Katelyn’s POVThe day started like any other, but the mood between us felt lighter.Ethan and I sat side by side in his office, eyes on the computer screen. We were reviewing some design proposals for the upcoming campaign. I leaned in a little closer to get a better look, and just then, we both turned our heads at the exact same time.Our faces were so close.Our eyes locked. We both laughed.“I didn’t mean to bump into your face,” I said.Ethan smiled. “I didn’t mind.”His voice was low. I observed he had been more relaxed lately, more thoughtful. It felt different. In good way.I opened the lunchbox I brought and set it between us. “Let’s eat. You’ve been working non-stop.”He reached for a piece of chicken, but I stopped him with a teasing look. “I’ll feed you.”Ethan blinked in surprise. “You don’t have to—”“I want to,” I cut in, already picking up a piece and holding it near his mouth.He opened his mouth and took the bite, smiling around it. “You’re spoiling me.”Before I cou
