VALENTINE'S DAY Enemy in the darkness
Ethan’s P.O.V“You’re right, it was Father who did that to her,” Nathan had already calmed, and he wiped the ends of his eyes with the handkerchief that I gave to him. We sat down just outside Valentina’s room as we discussed, the doctors said she was stable and would wake up as soon as the anesthesia wore off. “Norah accused her of hitting her, and then father took it personally, I tried to make Valentina leave but my timing was too late.”Norah… that bitch, I clenched my fist, I better not meet her alone one of these days, even though I was fuming mad at the two assholes, I didn’t want Nathan to feel bad.How could he even think of doing something like that to Valentina?I admit that I was also a terrible person towards her, I’ve always complained that she was a helpless and clumsy fool but I would never go to such an extent to leave her hospitalized with those nasty fractures… It was inhumane and it was almost as if he was trying to kill her.“What would you do if Valentina would a
VALENTINE'S DAY Tears of Valentina
Valentina’s P.O.V It was hot… I felt hot and very uncomfortable, there was something heavy on my neck and it felt as though the weight was sinking me into the bed. I groaned in pain, maybe it’s because I was now awake, but I felt a very sharp pain in my jaw and legs. My eyes flung open and I was met with sharp bright lights that made me wince. I was in a hospital, and there was no one in my room, I wanted to call for help, I didn’t need anything at the moment but I wanted to know why I was there and why is there a cast on my neck. Oh now that I remember, the events of Ron beating me up flashed across my mind, and I sank back into the bed in defeat.Who would have thought that was the reason why I have always been hated and stigmatized all those years? Tears well in my eyes, it’s not my fault… but it was also my fault.I tried to turn but it was close to impossible, I felt so heavy and I burst into tears, the pain came from inside my chest. I didn’t know how long I lay there cryin
VALENTINE'S DAY Eyes for just me
Ethan’s P.O.VI realized that Nathan was leaving the room, I took some steps away from the doorway, Nathan’s eyes were red with tears and swollen underneath, he hadn’t gotten enough sleep and yet he was crying so much.I felt sorry for him… seeing a child try so hard like that, reminded me of myself, except that their family seemed more messed up than I imagined.“Valentina…” He choked and unintentionally I pulled him into a hug, after all, he was just a kid but sounded mature for his age. “…She wouldn’t listen to me.”“She is just shocked and she needs time.” I encouraged him, and as I patted his head, he hugged me and cried even more. “You have to give her time, all these are still very new to her and for her, and she is probably trying to develop a coping mechanism, please understand.”“S-She doesn’t want to see me…” He lamented, wiping his eyes with the ends of his sleeves. “…She told me to leave.”“You can always come back later,” He suddenly grabbed my shoulders even though I wa
VALENTINE'S DAY Suspicious bestie
Travis P.O.VEthan didn’t come to school as well today, and he isn’t at home as well, I had called him more than a thousand times, but he wouldn’t pick up nor did he reply to any of my texts. I plopped on my bed, exhausted from the day’s stress.I would admit that it had been pretty boring without him around… then Valentina too, she wasn’t in school too.It was somewhat suspicious. Because she didn’t go to work as well, I had a strong feeling that Ethan and Valentina were together, they complained she hadn’t come to work during those four days as well, I just hope everything is okay with her.“I wonder what could be the problem,” I groaned as I reached for my phone that vibrated in my pocket. It was a message from Junis.“Travis dear,” I read the message inside my head, Mr. Junis had an old-fashioned way of speaking to us, that I sometimes considered funny. “Mr. Lords is about to call you to ask about the whereabouts of Ethan, please cooperate with me.”What, I sat upright, I was ab
VALENTINE'S DAY Not a friend, just a foe
Valentina’s P.O.VI stared at my phone on the table close to me but it was impossible to reach for it, I sighed in defeat realizing that I needed someone to assist me. I tried to reach for the patient call bell but I was still unable to move my hands in the direction.I heaved another heavy sigh as I lay in wait for someone to come for me.Gordon Ransey…It continued to ring in my head…That was the name of the man, Ron had called my father. I just couldn’t forget his name and the kind of person he was described to be. If he was such a notorious serial rapist and murderer, then the search engines might have some answers to all the questions in my head. I wanted to know if Ron wasn’t just saying things to get to me. The door opened and my heart lifted slightly because I thought it was the nurse, but the hope that ignited in my chest suddenly went out when my eyes met with Ethan’s stone-cold green eyes. Ethan was still around? Why the hell was he even here in the first place?“Va
VALENTINE'S DAY Ethan's Confession
Ethan’s P.O.V“What does it matter to you if I want to die?” She asked me again, I stared down at my shoes, it hurt me so much to see Valentina in such a vulnerable state, and what hurt me, even more, was that I was unable to do anything about it.“No one told you to be here!” she snapped angrily again and I sighed in frustration, it was getting difficult to control my anger as well, but I knew I wasn’t supposed to get angry at her, I completely understood her position. “Please leave.”“I’m not going anywhere…” I repeated stubbornly, crossing my legs over the other. “Even if you hate seeing me here I am not going to leave you.” she raised her palms to her face and closed her eyes tightly, tears streaming out of them.“Since there isn’t anyone here, why don’t you just let it out?” I suggested since there was nothing I could do to help her. “You can cry as much as you want, I’m not going to judge you.”She turned her back towards me, and was silent for a while before I realized she was
VALENTINE'S DAY He kissed me
Valentina’s P.O.VEthan likes me…. I stared hard at his sleeping form on the couch; I noticed he had changed his clothes, even though he hadn’t gone home, did he probably call Junis to bring him some clothes? If he changed his clothes in the hospital, he must have used the public bathroom, a rich kid like him, born with all the luxury in the world.How could he be so comfortable with the inconvenience? Ethan said he likes me… That was impossible and I knew that much, this was the same Ethan who hated me so much, he usually stopped at nothing to make sure that I cried at least once I crossed his path.Ethan said he likes me… I didn’t believe him but if he didn’t like me why would he distress himself for my sake, he had done nothing but take care of me, and I felt guilty because I had treated him badly during those few days he had been here.I don’t know how I feel about this piece of information, it’s true that I feel a bit more comfortable with him than before, and that is exactly w
VALENTINE'S DAY A different side of Travis
Travis P.O.V There were already a lot of things different about Ethan, I had this strong feeling that he was hiding something from me, and I’m tired of just letting him act as he pleases. I also feel like he was lying about Valentina’s visit… I paused for a while, as I tried to figure out why he was hiding her from me.Is he dating Valentina?That was impossible, but I have noticed just how he gets around her or whenever someone mentions her name, he was being too protective of her.Even though he told me to leave and wait for him to come home, I just couldn’t leave just like that so I usually drove over there once in the evening after school with the hope that he was going to come outside and I might get a chance to go see Valentina.Just as I was parked outside, I watched Ethan waltz out of the hospital, one of his hands was in his pocket, and I was quite a good distance away from the hospital. So it was close to impossible for him to notice me from that far.He stood beside his c
