I can't leave you

Ethan's POV

The yelling stopped abruptly as Sarah walked in through the door. My mum just scowled at me as if to say 'this is by no means over Ethan Morgan!' before saying bye to Sarah and slamming the door behind her on her way out. They were off on another one of their outings this time they were dropping Jane off at her friends house which meant me and Sarah had the place to ourselves.

"Hey Ethan, what was the screaming match about?" Sarah said crawling onto the bed and curling up against my chest. My heart leapt into my mouth when I realised I had to tell Sarah what had happened. I was by no means ready to face this myself let a lone burden Sarah with it but I had to be honest with her and I knew she wasn't going to like it.

" Sarah, I..." I trailed off.

" Ethan, what happened?" she asked, her large innocent brown eyes boring into me.

"I've got a conditional offer to a top college in America and my mum wants me to go..." I said watching as realisation dawned across her face. She burrowed her face into my chest hugging me closer.

"And...and...do you want to go?"

"No, Sarah I can't leave you, I won't go...I can't."

"Ethan this is a great opportunity for you, it's all you ever talked about. I know I would never forgive myself if you were held back because of...me."

" I want to stay Sarah I do..."

"But...deep down you know this is what you want, in my heart I have no doubt that you don't love me. I love you too...which is why I can't hold you back like this. If this were me you would be sending me off too no matter how much you loved me! I know you would!"

" I would but..."

"But nothing Ethan...if you love someone you let them go, if they come back their heart was yours and if they don't...then their heart never really belonged to you in the first place. I have faith Ethan, I will let you go and I will be right here waiting for you when you return okay?" she choked, tears streaming down her face.

"I know, I know, I will come back...I promise." I said fiercely fighting back my own tears. I wrapped my arms around her slight frame and kissed her on the head. "Hey, I did say it was conditional anyway, considering our methods of revision lately I doubt I will even get the grades to get in." I said, she chuckled lightly, her breath tickling my cheek as she leaned in towards me, drinking me in before our lips connected, all our emotional strain, all our unsaid feelings poured out into that one kiss, a sweet sensation buzzed within me as my heartbeat quickened. I tangled my fingers in her soft hair, trailing slow luxurious kisses down her neck. A low moan escaped her lips as I wrapped her in an embrace. We lay in each others arms facing each other as I whispered. "Thank you."

"For what."

" For being...you." I said, her lips tugged upwards into a beautiful smile before she leaned in for another kiss and we began talking about everything we wished to achieve in our last year at Whitechapel High. Everything we wished to achieve in our last moments together...
