"If this relationship is formed, I will be sure that I won't lose and you won't either," he said to her, with his knees still on the floor. Agnes looked at him and a tear rolled down her eyes. She quickly ran out from there. Ethan watched her flee from him and it made him very angry. He quickly stood up and hit the wall with his fist in frustration.
"Why did she always love to display dramatic scenes?" He asked himself in anger, his teeth clenching hard against each other.
He stormed to the direction Agnes took in anger, when he took some steps he found her sitting on a block, with her head bent and he heard her crying too.
Ethan could not understand why he felt his heart ache on seeing her crying but he shoved the thought aside. He slowly walked up to her and knelt down by her side.
"I am very sorry Whitney, I did not mean to make you cry. You also don't need to worry about giving me a reply, if you don't reciprocate my feelings, do not worry I understand." Agnes raised up her head and looked at him with so much love in her eyes.
"I accept you Ethan," she said amidst tears and grabbed the flower in his hands from him.
Ethan smiled at her childish movement, then he stood up and hugged her. "I guess it's time to go."
"Alright, let me tidy up and grab my purse."
"Forget about tidying up, just get your purse and let's go."
"Ok," Agnes replied to him.
They both got into the car and Ethan sped off.
He drove down a private roads. The bare maples of the church foothills rose stark against a crisp sky and the peaceful setting was enticing.
Daniel tuned on the music player in his car.
"Do you like jazz?" He asked his girlfriend.
Agnes smiled at him, "I do not like it anymore but you can leave it if you like it."
"Why don't you like it?" He asked.
"I got bored listening to them," she replied.
"Ohh ok, I do not like the music too," he replied and then he changed the music.
Agnes turned to face him, "you do not like it? Then why did you play it?"
"I played cause I thought you would like it. Majority of the females love listening to jazz." He replied to her.
Agnes nodded her head, "hmm I see."
"How do you see the road?" Ethan brought up another irrelevant question.
"Neat and lonely, it is good for new couples."
"Good couples? Very soon the road will be good for us then."
Whitney blushed at his words ,"neither of us can tell our fate."
"I have written your fate already," he mocked inwardly.
"Where do you want us to have our picnic?" He asked.
"Well," Whitney emphasized. "I can not think of any suitable place in my head, I think you should decide a place yourself."
"Ok. What about fruit Field? It is a very nice place, what do you think? He asked her.
"I don't know about that place, I mean I have never even heard of it, where is it located?"
"In the Banana street," he said, flashing his set of white teeth.
"I think you should start visiting places more often."
"Yeah you are right, well you can't blame me, growing up, I was an introvert."
Ethan brought the car to a halt, "we are here," he announced and came down from the car. He rushed to the other side of the car and opened the door for her.
"So what are we going to use for the picnic?" She asked staring at him.
"Have you forgotten that I am a billionaire and I could get whatever I wanted so easily. I have already prepared everything for this picnic."
"Today is the first time I have ever taken someone on a picnic, you are my first and you will remain the last," he used his emotional tactics on her yet again.
"Ethan?" She called out his name in a low and angelic tone. "Why are you doing all this for me?"
"Because I am so lucky to have a woman like you in my life, I am your boyfriend and as far as I am concerned your happiness is my first priority. This loyal servant of yours has pledged to love you non stop."
"You do not have to do all this for me, having you in my life is more than enough," her words came out in a revolted whisper.
"Do you have any idea that you are indirectly saying that by pleasing you, I have been wasting my time and resources."
"No Ethan, I didn't mean it that way, I was only trying to say that...
"Fine I get you, I do not want you complaining about anything, so we will just slide away this topic and the picnic, like it never came about," Ethan intruded in a rude manner.
"No Ethan, I am not complaining in any way. I know you have put in a lot of effort in making this preparations, I can not just let it slide away. I am not just used to this kind of special treatment."
"Listen Agnes I can cancel the picnic if you want me to, I don't mind," he spoke in a carrying whisper.
"I do not want this picnic to be cancelled Ethan." She said, hugging him.
"Then we better start going or we might be late." He said to her and grabbed her by the hand.
The both of them sat down on a blue, soft material.
"So tell me Ethan, how did you manage to prepare all this?" Agnes asked him.
"Your boyfriend is a genuis," he replied. Agnes smiled because of the reply he gave. "Wow, I must be the luckiest girl on earth then, to have such a genius as a boyfriend," she spoke out.
"Of course, you should count yourself very lucky, many other girls would kill to get to me but here I am falling at your feet," he teased.
Whitney let out a very loud laugh. "Ethan I advise that you better stop with these your jokes or I might just choke to death," she said to him in between her laughter.
"Ok my lady," he replied, raising his hands up in a surrendering manner.
They started eating, wow they were both feeding each other romantically, anyone that saw the two of them would think that Ethan really loved Agnes so much and with all of his heart.
"Ha ha ha," Agnes laughed out loud.
"What is it making you laugh this much, I did not crack any jokes?" He asked her, wondering his eyes around, to check if there was anything he missed.
He did not see anything, then he looked back at Agnes and found her still laughing but this time around she used her hand to close her mouth.
"Agnes say something, why are you laughing?" He asked again.
Agnes bit her lips in an attempt to stop herself from laughing, then she pointed at his mouth, Ethan did not understand what she was gesturing at. "What?" He asked, looking at her fingers.
Agnes stood up and went close to him, then she brought her slender finger to his lips and wiped the milk that was slightly above his lips. She was done wiping the stuff off his face but still her fingers were still stroking that part, no not that part, her fingers were still stroking his lips. She stared lostfully into his eyes and Ethan too felt hypnotized by her charming eyes, Agnes shifted her eyes from him and brought it down to his lips, then without signal, she crashed her lips down to his.
She kissed him gently, but soon Ethan took control of the kiss and from a tender kiss, it turned to a passionate kiss, then to a desperate kiss but yearning for each other..
Ethan gently pushed her backwards, then he continued kissing her, he nibbled on her soft lips and even though he wanted to pull out, even though he wanted to break the kiss, he could not. He felt so addicted to her tender lips.
His lips were still on her but his hands trailed down her body. He caressed her body, even he was not touching her skin directly. He was about to raise the Hem of her dress when Whitney stopped him. "Ethan, it is getting late, I think it is time for us to get back home," she said to him.
Ethan was still on top of her, he quickly raised himself up when he realized what he was trying to do to a girl he hated the most. Agnes raised herself up and tried to straighten her gown.
