Ethan ran after her, clinging to her. "You're so naughty," he said. "You knew those words would hurt, but you said them anyway like you meant it." If he didn't have his pride as a guy, he probably would've started crying right then and there.

"Why would you do that to me? Why would you break my heart like that?" "Ethan!" "Just tell me, please?" Ethan ran after her, clinging to her. "You're so naughty," he said. "You knew those words would hurt, but you said them anyway like you meant it." If he didn't have his pride as a guy, he probably would've started crying right then and there.
"Get off!" Alyssa groaned again, shoving his face away.
"Why would you do that to me? Why would you break my heart like that?" "Ethan!" "Just tell me, please?" "If you don't start talking like you usually do, I swear I'll throw you out the window." "I'm just trying to get closer to you." Ethan finally dropped the act. His voice softened to its usual tone as he leaned forward, curiosity in his eyes. "You still haven't toldwhy you said all that stuff to crush me." "Because I was paying you back for all the times you madefeel like I didn't matter," Alyssa said calmly.

"So... what about now? Still into them? I can put in a good word for you, if you'd like, she asked, sounding way too casual.
"I never liked them! Not for a second!" Ethan jumped in fast, eager to explain. "Back then... I liked you. just didn'th Back then like you. didn't have the guts to admit it. I thought if I teased you, joked around, or even talked about dating your friends, I could stick around without making it obvious. I just wanted an excuse to be near you." Alyssa stayed quiet.
