Wrong Number//E.D.

Elley's POV

I walked into the Hampton Inn and walked up to floor 3, room 194, Ethan's room. 

I knocked on the door and tried to look through the peep hole before anyone came to the door. 

The door was quickly pulled open and I was greeted by a shirtless Ethan. Best way to be greeted, may I add.

"Hi!" He pulled me close against his warm chest. 

"Hey!" I said smiling as I pulled away. 

"So....you ready?" I nodded my head and he took my hand into his. He held them all the way down to the car. 

We threw our stuff in the back seats and headed out. 

"So where are we going??" I lifted my eyebrows. 

"It's a surprise!" He smiled before quickly gazing into my eyes. He looked back at the road, still smiling. 

As always, we sat in the car and sang along to all of our favorite songs. We were in the car for a good 20 minutes before we got to his "special" spot. 

I assumed it was just the beach but it was so much more. 

As I got out of the car, Ethan covered my eyes with his hands. 

"Stop, I want to see!!" I giggled as he lightly pushed me towards his "spot". 

"In a minute! You are so impatient, its a surprise! Just enjoy it!" I knew he was smiling, I didn't even have to look. He loved showing me things he was passionate about. 

Once we walked up what felt like a large hill, we were finally there. 

"Okay ready?" He asked excitedly.

"Extreamly..." He slowly counted down from three and then uncovered my eyes. 

It was the most beautiful place I have ever seen. 

It was a cliff with many exotic flowers around it. The water below had a gorgeous aqua coloration and the sand was as white as snow. 

Ethan had a blanket and pillows set up on one of the highest rocks. 

"Wow." I didn't know what else to say.

"You like it?" He let a slight smile leave his lips. 

"Of course! How did you find this place?" I turned to face Ethan. 

"Well, as you know, Gray and I love adventure so one day when we first came to LA, we were exploring and found this place. I've never shown anyone this place, except Cameron and Bryant." Just standing there, I knew he was at his happiest. This is definitely one of his favorite places to just sit and think. Ethan is all about positivity but you can't always just have positivity and nothing else. You get the good with the bad, and when the bad comes, he would just sit here and think. 

"It's amazing, Ethan. Thank you." I slowly approached him and leaned in, lightly kissing his soft lips. 

He picked me up and spun me around in his arms, kissing my cheeks and laughing. He was so sweet. 

He put me down, and we walked to the edge. I was always afraid of heights, but for some reason, right now, in this exact moment, I felt like I could do anything. 

I took off my cover up and I lead Ethan to the edge. 

"We jump on three okay?" I nodded and held his hand as he brought us closer and closer to the edge. 

"One, two, THREE!" And with that, I did one of the craziest things I've ever done. I jumped 20 feet into the water. Something came over me and I just went for it. I felt like I could conquer the world. I jumped and even though it was only a few seconds, it felt like hours. I looked over at Ethan who looked like he was having the time of his life. 

Suddenly, I felt the a rush of cold water hit my skin, causing me to scream even louder than I was before. I fell deeper and deeper into the ocean. I pushed the water further below me until I hit the surface. 

I took a long, deep breath and swam to shore. 

I called out to Ethan, who was a meter or two in front of me, "That was incredible! I never thought I would ever do that!!" I continued swimming until I got to the beach. 

"Amazing, isn't it? It just gives you this rush." He smiled down at the ground. 

"I would never had been able to do that, I honestly don't know how I did it." I sat down on the sand and began to build a mush castle. (Where you take very wet sand and drizzle it into a castle form)

"Sometimes, you even surprise yourself." Ethan started makings own mush castle, which then turned into a competition to see who could make the best one. I would have won, if it wasn't for Ethan knocking it over every five seconds. 

We played in the ocean until we got hungry for lunch. It was around 1:00 pm at this time. 

He got me my favorite sandwich, a BLT with no tomato's and extra bacon. We ate and talked, just like last night all over again. Perfect. Again.

Once we were finally done, he brought me back down to the beach where I tried to tan. Tried in the key word in the sentence. 

Ethan sat next to me and would pick me up and throw me in the water, then feel bad for about two minutes and play with my hair, then he would throw me back into the water. 

After that, we spent the rest of the day wrestling in the water, talking, and taking pictures. We were both very artistic in that way.

Just before sunset, Ethan brought me back up to the top and we sat on the rocks above the water. He wrapped a towel around my shivering body and then pulled me close to him. I rested my head on his chest and he kissed the top of my head. 

I wish this would last forever. 

Ethan's POV

This was so perfect. 

She was so perfect. 

She IS so perfect.

She was snuggled tightly up against my body and it just felt right. 

Her head was resting on my chest, so I sat my head on her shoulder. 

I looked down at her face, which was slightly burnt and had an orange reflection of the sun coming off of it. She looked as beautiful as ever. 

Her hair was up in a bun and her nail polish was now chipped, but she didn't care. She lived in the moment and didn't care about what happened yesterday or what would happen tomorrow. She lived in the now. 

She was so perfect, because she was herself. 

She loved herself for who she was, and didn't care what other people said or thought, because she knew she was perfect in her own different ways. 

I pulled her tighter to my chest, and felt my heart begin to race. 

I realized that Elley is so special. I've never met any girl like her.

After the sun set, we packed everything up and I dropped her off at her house, with one goodnight kiss. Nothing more. 

She was simple, but complicated, yet I was so utterly in love with her. 

(aww I thought this was another cute chapter :))
