A/N: Ok, the next couple featured is… SARAH AND ETHAN!
Ethan's POV
Sarah kissed me. She actually kissed me and it wasn't in a crazy dream of mine. When? She kissed me last night, Valentine's Day and it was the best moment of my life. It all started yesterday morning after the Lucifractor explosion…
Flashback…
I woke up completely dazed. All around me there was complete destruction. I quickly realized Sarah was lying unconscious by me and Benny was kneeling over us both. Benny saw me up and smiled.
"Finally! I've been trying to get you both up for hours!" He said, and I heard Sarah groan. Her eyes fluttered open and she sat up slowly. I sat up with her and brushed myself off. I realized the castle in which the explosion had taken place was gone. All that was left was the debris around them. It looked like the explosion had actually taken down a block of homes around it too. Sarah looked around and helped herself up.
"Stern," She mumbled. I was worried that he hadn't died. I mean, Benny and I were alive and not even close to being as powerful as him. I saw a figure coming toward us through the fog ahead and immediately tensed. I saw the jet black hair and realized it was Jesse. Benny helped me up and I stared at him as he came closer with something in his arms. When he was close enough I realized he was carrying the Lucifractor itself. I was lost. I thought it would have been destroyed. He stopped in front of us and pointed to a spot of the orb. I looked and saw Stern; he was in some kind of trap. He glared up at us and started screaming but no words came out.
"I found the Lucifractor near me when I woke up and saw him in it. I was tempted to smash the thing into the ground, but I thought he might escape that way." Jesse said, smiling down at Stern.
"We need some way to dispose of that," I said and everyone looked at me. I heard sirens in the distance and knew that police, ambulances and others were coming to figure out what happened.
"We have to leave now. The police are coming. We'll be arrested." I said and Sarah nodded. We started walking but after a few minutes Sarah collapsed in front of me. I kneeled at her side and tried to wake her but it was no use. I glared at Jesse because I thought this might have been the result of him carrying the Lucifractor. He glared back and handed me the orb, picking up Sarah in his arms. We finally reached my house after getting away from the disaster area, and I saw my mom and Jane standing there waiting for me.
"Ethan! I was so worried you were hurt! I saw the explosion from the window," My mom said, hugging me tight then noticing Sarah limply hanging from Jesse's arms. We all went inside and waited until Sarah woke again, which wasn't for another hour. She claimed she was fine but my mom still invited her to stay the night because she was weak. Jesse and Benny left at night and Sarah and I watched movies for a while in silence. Jesse had taken the Lucifractor with him to figure out how to destroy it completely. Sarah was the first to speak.
"Were you hurt?" She asked me, clearly nervous of my reply.
"Shouldn't I be asking you that after you passed out?" I replied.
"I'm serious Ethan you're not immortal like me. Were you hurt?" She asked again, this time more demanding.
"I'm fine. I'm just worried that Stern can escape somehow." I confided in her. She surprised me and rested her head on my shoulder. Her hair smelled like lemons and rosemary. [A/N: Can anyone tell me where 'Lemons and Rosemary' is from? ;) Hint: It has to do with the next couple I'm doing.] I guess it was new shampoo. Usually she smells like roses.
"It's Valentine's Day Ethan," She whispered and I realized she was right.
"I'm sorry. Today was probably not what you expected," I told her. She lifted her eyes to look at me and frowned.
"No it wasn't the most romantic day ever. Fighting an evil wizard with my ex and best friends," She said.
"Best friends?" I asked suspiciously.
"Ok, maybe a nerdy geek and a flirty wizard," She said jokingly.
"Which am I?" I asked.
"The boy who's always been there for me even when I've ignored his true feelings this whole time." She said, and I looked at her, shocked.
"You-I knew," I stuttered. Her chocolate brown eyes looked at me calculating.
"It's fine Ethan. I know you like me. And I think I like you back…" She said trailing off. The room was silent for a few minutes before she kissed me. I kissed her back and when she pulled away I felt dizzy. She smiled at me and I felt like I might've passed out.
"We kissed," I said stupidly.
"Happy Valentine's Day Ethan and thank you for always being there." She said again resting her head on my shoulder.
"We-We KISSED." I stammered again like an idiot. I heard Sarah giggle and I started laughing like an insane person. I was just so crazed that Sarah actually willingly kissed me. My mom walked up from behind the couch and Sarah slid away from me awkwardly.
"Ethan, you should leave Sarah to rest for now." My mom told me, and I thought she might scold me when we got upstairs. Instead she winked at me and walked out shutting the door behind her. I laid there on my bed just thinking about Sarah.
End of Flashback…
So Valentine's Day was the best day of my life. Maybe it's just me, but I think Sarah and I are officially in a relationship.
