Chapter 25

I'm not calling you a liar

(Ella's P.O.V)

YES! My ribs are completely healed.

Worst 6 weeks of MY LIFE...actually it was 7, but close enough.

I just got back from my check up...everything seems to be fine. I'm still a little sore, but it's nothing serious.

But here's the best part...I CAN DANCE AGAIN!

I was very upset with the fact that I ended up having to sitting out for the winter recital.

Madame Peutrova made me her assistant for the show.

I hated standing behind the curtain and watching the other girls dance...but it was a great show.

Seth and a few of my friends sat in the audience to show their support which made that day even better.

I didn't even dance in the show...and my boyfriend gave me flowers = ).

It's Winter Break and Christmas is in 4 days.

No sign of snow yet, but I'm hoping for a "white christmas".

Seth and I still haven't gone on a second date yet...but I woke up this morning with a note on my window that said...

Ella,

Our second date has been long over due.
I'll come and get you 7:00pm.

Be ready.

Dress warm.

~Seth

I have know idea what he has up his sleeves...but I'm sure I'm gonna love it anyway.

We've been dating for almost two months.

We will have been dating for exactly 2 months on 12.25.09 which is kinda like a 2 month anniversay :D.

Seth's christmas present just came in the mail yesterday.

He's really starting to like photography and plans on taking it all four years of high school.

I had this giant water jug jar thingy full of coins that I've been collecting for more than 3 years.

I cashed it all in yesterday and I have over 500 dollars in change...but I got it all cashed.

Christmas is going to be good this year...

I've been looking around ebay and craig's list for the past month and found the perfect gift for Seth.

It's a used 2008 model...the Nikon D300 SLR.

I got a $500.00 camera for the price of $125.00.

No one had even placed a bid for it...and I got a very quick reply after I sent in my offer.

Seth is gonna love it!

I had a feeling this night was gonna be specia1.

I straigtened my hair and then I put on a pair of skinny jeans, a white t-shirt and a gray hoodie with a pair of Ugg boots.

Everyone went out tonight so right now I have the house to myself until Seth comes and pick me up.

This relationship has been working out well for the both of us.

I might actually love this guy…okay I take that back…..

I love this guy….and I'm gonna tell him that tonight :D

I don't know what it is about Seth…..but you don't usually find good guys like Seth.

I've only known him for such a short time and I feel like I've know longer.

It feels more like years than months that I have know Seth.

Seth is my first boyfriend EVER!

So he's always gonna go down in my memory as my first boyfriend and maybe even my first love….along with my first kiss.

Clark doesn't count…..he will never count….the kiss didn't even mean anything.

Plus, Seth is a good kisser.

I know there is big chance that he and I won't last forever….but I will cherish every little moment we share together and never forget it.

If Seth and I just so happen to last all the way through high school and maybe college…or even after that….then it will be very certain that it was fate.

Emily and Sam's wedding is in a few months.

Kim, Lucy, and I are going to be her bridesmaids….Emily is trying to have Leah be her made of honor…but everyone isn't so sure about that one.

I don't know the whole story…but Seth told me that Leah kinda has a grudge against Emily right now….they used to be best friends but all of a sudden Leah just started hating her. Her own cousin!

But it's none of my business.

Emily's 4 year old niece Claire is going to be the flower girl.

She's such a cutie pie! Quil absolutely adores her..Claire seems to think the same.

He's always babysitting her.

It's a very interesting bond…but Quil is more of a big brother figure to her.

Seth is one of the groomsmen and Emily said that she was going to make it her priority to have Seth and I walk down the isle together.

Alice Cullen is helping Emily plan the wedding.

So far I think Emily decided on having a royal blue be the color of the bridesmaids' dresses.

I can work with blue lol.

It's 5 minutes till 7 o' clock.

Seth should be coming any minute now.

~~~About 3 hours later~~~~

I feel stupid for falling asleep.

I woke up and saw that it was already 10:30 pm and Seth still hasn't shown up.

No text messages.

No phone call.

Nothing…Nada….Zip….Nil….ZERO!

3 hours…..

He was suppost to be here at 7 and it's freaking 10:30pm.

Something must be going on.

Maybe it was an emergency?

Either way….I hope he has a good excuse :P

I'm losing patience...BIG TIME!

I picked up my cell phone off the dresser and speed dialed his number.

...No answer...

"Hey it's me...um where are you? It's 10:32 and you haven't showed up or called me or even bothered to text me. I don't want a repeat of homecoming Seth. If tonight's not a good night for you then just call me as soon as possible okay? Before I hang up...there's something I've been wanting to tell you...wait for it...I love you Seth. I really do...contact me as soon as you can...please."

I hung up.

I prefered telling him that I love him in person...but in a way I kinda felt that the moment was right...hence the fact that I 'm very irritatted with my boyfriend right now.

~~~1 Hour Later~~~

I'm done with this.

I grabbed my keys, cellphone and then headed out the door.

I ran down the road and there he was.

Standing with his back towards me in the middle of the drive way.

He was pacing back and forth...like he was in some sort panic frenzy about something.

All he was wearing was a pair of shorts and sneakers...he was shirtless.

I picked a rock up of the ground and threw it by his feet.

He stopped moving and faced me.

"So what's your excuse this time? I'm not calling you a liar or anything, but I do wanna know the truth. Now." I demanded.

Seth ran his fingers through his hair.

"Ella I— "

"Oh wait! Let me guess...your answer is somewhere on the guidelines of I can't tell you." I said cutting him off.

Seth didn't answer.

A tear rolled down the side of my face.

"That's what I thought." I said nodding my head.

"No, Ella." Seth said walking over to where I was standing.

"Then what?" I yelled.

He was silent.

"Okay...here's what I'm gonna do...I'll let you slide...just this once...but I do want to know why what you've been doing is such a big secret and why you don't have the guts to tell me. I'm your girlfriend Seth. You can tell me anything. You know I'll listen regardless of how bad it may be. I love you Seth...just don't lie to me okay? I want us to be honest with each other." I told him.

Seth put his hands around my waist and leaned in to kiss me.

"I love you too...and I'm sorry. But I will tell you what's going on. Nows not the right time...but I will tell you. Very soon." He whispered.

I feel so unlucky and lucky at the same time.

Seth's hiding something and it's clearly written all over his face.

I don't know what it is...but I feel as if it might be a bad thing.

But that's just it,

Seth wouldn't be the guy to do drugs or sell drugs or smoke or drink or pretty much anything that it illegal for out age.

What the hell am I saying?

I'm making stupid assumptions about my own boyfriend and I don't even know the real story.

It's madness.

I hate secrets...I really do. Especially if they have something to do about me.

"If you do this again, I'm not gonna let you off the hook so easily. No more excuses. Next time I want the truth. Three times is the charm...one more time and that might be it. I'm serious. I don't want to lose you. So no more secrets okay?"

Seth kissed me on the forehead.

"Come on." Seth said grabbing my hand and pulling me down towards the road.

"Where are we going?" I asked him.

"For a walk—"

"Without a shirt on?" I said.

"Eh," He paused.

"I'll be fine." Seth shrugged.

I just shook my head.

My boyfriend is crazy...but I love it!

"So why aren't you wearing a shirt?" I asked him.

"I explain that to you later." He told me.

"Why not now?" I demanded.

"Baby I will tell you later. I promise." Seth murmured.

He just called me baby.

Awww I think my cheeks are starting to get a little flushed.

"Hmmm." I mumbled.

"What is it?" Seth asked me.

"We've been dating for only 2 months and we already told each other I love you. Usually that couples say that till they've been dating for atleast 3 months or so but—"

"Well in my opinion I think we're different." Seth said cutting me off.

"Why's that?" I asked.

"I don't really know right now...but I just know." He told me.

"Now if only that made sense..." I chuckled.

"Yea..." He trailed off.

"Do you think it's like a sign or something?" I asked him.

"I think I know what it means..."Seth said.

"Then what. And it better make more sense this time." I teased.

"Okay wait for it..." Seth said as his voice got quieter.

We stopped walking and he placed his warm hands on my waist.

I slowly leaned in for a sweet, savory and very passionate kiss.

Ahhh...Seth is such a good kisser =)

"Okay now I'm confused." I told him with a puzzled look on my face.

"Well...I pretty much wanted a good excuse to kiss you so—"

"Shame on you!" I said giving him a light punch on the arm.

"Oh you know I was just kidding." Seth said as he tried to wrap his arms around me.

"Nope." I said letting go of his hand in a playful way...

"Ella" Seth pleaded.

"No—"

"Come on—"

"No Seth." I teased.

"Fine...you give me no other option." Seth said with tone that was very warning.

He slowly walked towards me.

"Seth...what are you gonna do—"

Before i could finish what I was trying to say. He grabbed me by the waist and began to tickle me.

I'm a very ticklish person...

"Seth—No—hahahahah—stop! Pleas—Seth Clearwater—hahahaha—I'm really ticklish—" I tried to say in between my loud laughter.

"So I have noticed—"

"If you don't let go, I will seriously kick in a place where the sun doesn't shi—"

"I'm just playing with you." Seth said wrapping his warm arms around me.

"You weird." I said in a childish tone.

"Pshh...Elly I'm not weird...I'm just one of a kind." He said in a conceited tone.

"Whatever." I teased.

"Don't hate!" Seth joked.

"Sure sure," I mumbled.

"So what are your plans for Christmas?" He asked me.

"Well, I have some of my family coming to visit from the Portland Metro area and that's just about it. They won't be coming over till the afternoon. So that gives me time to come and see you. You're gonna love your gift." I told him.

"I can't wait till you see your gift." Seth said.

"We still haven't gotten any snow yet." I pouted.

"Oh trust me. We'll be getting snow any day now. I know that for a fact...curtousy of FOX News." Seth said.

"Wow...that was just lovely." I chuckled.

"Just as long as I get to put a smile on your face." Seth said putting his arm around my waist.

"Yea yea" I smirked.

"Hold on a second." Seth said pulling something out of his jean pocket.

It was his Ipod of course.

He placed one of the earbuds in his ear and then placed the other in mine.

Oh boy...here we go.

The song "Mad" by Neyo started playing.

I love this song.

He took my hands into his and placed them around his neck. Then he put his hands on his waist.

"I miss this." He whispered in my ear.

"Me too." I murmured.

Once again...Seth and were dancing.

It's something him and I haven't done since our first date. We didn't even slow dance at homecoming because he had "disappeared".

"By the way...this should hopefully make up for the homecoming dance." He told me.

"I couldn't agree more." I replied.

"So does this count as a second date?" Seth asked me.

I was in such a good mood right now that I wasn't even gonna ruin it.

Yea it's not what I expected but I can live with it.

"Yes...it does." I smiled.

"So when do we go on a third date?" He asked me.

"What day did you have in mind?" I asked him,

"How about the first day of the new year?" He suggested.

"It would be our first date in 2010." I said.

"Exactly." Seth smiled.

"Then it's a date." I confirmed.

Seth gave me a brief kiss on the lips.

"Your lips are so soft." He murmured.

"Your lips are warm." I whispered.

We kissed again.

"Wait what time is it?" I asked.

"We're on Winter vacation. Who cares?" Seth told me.

"Well I have a friend coming up from Vancouver tomorrow. She's gonna be staying at my house for 2 days." I told him.

When I say Vancouver...I mean Vancouver, Washington. Not Canada LOL.

"In that case, I should walk you home. It's already 12:30pm." He told me.

"Damn I feel like such a rebel." I said in a sarcastic tone.

"We're not that far from your house. It's only 5 minutes." Seth assured me.

I saw my parents car in the drive way.

They must have gotten home a while ago if I left the house around 10:30-ish.

We walked into the back yard and up the back stairs to my room.

I unlocked the back door and walked into my room.

Seth quickly followed in behind me.

"I'm gonna try and stop by tomorrow so you can meet my friend. I've told her all about you." I said.

"Well in that case I will invite some of the guys over. Better yet we can just get a group of people and hang out in he garage." Seth suggested.

"Sounds like a good plan." I nodded.

I heard the sound of Charlotte's collar jingling from the down the hall way.

The door was slightly cracked so she got into my room easily.

Lotty came and sat right in between me and my boyfriend's feet.

"Well I will see you tomorrow." I said before I gave him a quick peck on the lips.

"Sweet dreams." He whispered.

"Call me when you wanna hang out and we'll head right on over." I told him.

"Got it...see you tomorrow Elle." He murmured.

I silently closed the door, being careful not wake up anyone.

I quietly snuck into the bathroom and got cleaned up for bed.

Then I went back into my room and changed into some more comfortable clothes.

Charlotte jumped onto the bed just I had turned off the lights.

"Okay you can sleep on my bed too." I muttered.

Charlotte got up and walked over to where I layed and licked my face.

"Charlotte—okay—okat! Good night!" I whispered in a stern tone.

She quickly went back to where she was and layed down by my feet.

Right when I manage to get into a comfortable postion and close my eyes...my cell phonoe starts to vibrate on my dresser.

I reached out my arm and grabbed my cell of the dresser that was right next to my bed.

It was a text from Seth...

I forgot to tell you...
I love you :)

~Seth

I sent a quick reply...

Luv u 2 :)

I really think this relation ship is gonna work out really well now that we have established a few things.

Hopefull Seth will come clean with what he's been doing...I'm still a little freaked out about that.

But I'm not gonna worry about that right now.

I need to sleep.
