Happy Anniversary!
* Elina P.O.V.
It’s our one year anniversary , Ethan was taking me to a new restaurant on the far outskirts of town.
“You’re going to love it, it’s Italian I already looked at the menu online and it’s got all of your favorites,” Ethan said .
Ethan an I met 2 and a half years ago in the hospital waiting room. My parents died in a car accident when I was 14 and my grandfather did his best to take care of me . Up until I was 19 at least , not long after that he got sick and passed away . Ethan didn’t know me but kept me calm through the whole process.
“Why would you want to make a new restaurant an hour away from town? In the middle of nowhere?” I said getting more sick of being in the car the further we go.
Ethan looks down at the gps. “I don’t know but I didn’t see any bad reviews yet, I just hope the line isn’t long, we got 5 minutes left calm down.” He said with a slight smile.
The same smile that always did me in when we argued. Ethan was known as a “pretty boy”. His brown short hair that hung a little over his face, not far enough to where you couldn’t see his sky blue eyes. He had a muscular upper body and was very tall.
“Ughh thank heavens.” I groaned. He knows I hate being in a car for to long it makes me sick to my stomach.
We pulled up and surprisingly there weren’t very many people here. The restaurant was beautiful you can definitely tell it was new, very aesthetic. We walked inside and it was easily the most beautiful restaurant I have ever seen, I couldn’t stop staring at everything as we took our seats.
“Welcome to Bello Italiano can I get you started off with some drinks?” Our waitress said staring at Ethan .
She was very tall but looked very young, she was drop dead gorgeous. She had beautiful blonde long hair and she was very fit. She looked like she was made by a goddess, Ethan didn’t stop himself from staring at every inch of her.
“I’ll have a glass of Chardonnay, Ethan?” Kicking his leg a little to get his attention.
“I’ll take whatever she’s having.” He manages to stutter out.
After we order and eat our food I excuse myself to the restroom. As I’m coming out I notice Ethan standing with our waitress hand in his. I wait until he sits back down and she leaves and I walk back to the table.
“I just paid are you ready to go?” He
says as he doesn’t look up.
“Yeah let’s go!” As I get up and leave
him walking out of the restaurant
“What is your problem now Elina?” I can here him yelling from behind me as I get into the car. “What did I do this time?”
I don’t say anything I just stare out the window. He’s always been like this but every time I confront him it’s always the same story “I’m just being nice” I get it I’m not the prettiest. My thin dull dark brown hair never fell in the right spots, I’m very short and pale, and I’m a little curvy. I know that’s not the reason though. I’m a virgin and he’s not.
“Elina, you have to tell me what is wrong
in order for me to fix it!” He yells.
“I seen you and her” I scream not meaning to.
“Seen what? Me being friendly and
nice?”
“You know what? I’m sick of this let
me out!” As I’m pulling on the door handle.
“We’re in the middle of nowhere elina I’m not letting you out there is nothing but woods around us!”
“Let me out!” Screaming, this time I meant to!
“How are you going to get home then bc I’m not staying here waiting all night for you to calm down and get back in this car”
I shake my phone at him “you are such an asshole Ethan” as I flip him off and he leaves. Little did I know my phone was almost dead and I had no service. I walk down the road a little searching for service and see a dirt road to the right, I wonder if it could be a drive way.
