When You Are Mine

Amy turned to Ethan, with a deep frown etched on her face, and an angry glare sitted in her eyes.

Ethan threw his head back and laughed. "I'm sorry I was just pulling your legs" He told her, making Amy glare at him even harder. She knew it was a joke, but why would he pick now out of all times to throw such a joke at her? She hissed before turning her face away from him.

Ethan looked back at her, "So tell me why you had to stay at work late? Do you want to fall sick again?" He questioned her.

Amy turned to glance at him with complaining eyes. Couldn't he just let that go already? She thought that they were way passed that. But she replied anyway. "We had some problems at work and I had to work, but don't worry i didn't do much" She tried to lighted her punishment by saying that.

Ethan didn't believe the last part of her sentence. Amy was never the type to sit down and watch anything go down. She loved being an active participant in anything that involved her endeavour. If she could help then why sit out on it? He remembered even as a young girl how she hated being proactive during the charity events their mothers and their clique of rich and egoistic friends always involved in. That was the only reasonable thing they thought the women did all year.

So how then could he believe that she just sat idle all day? That was unbelievable.

He looked at the straight face which she had just lied with and he shook his head.

"Just don't exhaust yourself with work. You got us all worried when you fell sick, so watch your health" Ethan adviced her, while she nodded her head. She was relieved that that was all he had to say. She really didn't want him to talk her ear off with his endless nagging like her elder brother.

Her eyes lit up when she remembered something, she hurriedly turned to him and asked, "Where's the thing you wanted to give me"

Ethan took a brief look at her face before returning his attention back to the road. "Check there" He said pointing his chin to the glove compartment.

Amy gazed at him, her brows narrowed as she thought about what he actually had in there. She looked at the compartment right in front of her and slowly opened it.

There were a few things in it that made her wonder what they were used for. But what really caught her attention was the two tickets in it. She turned to look at Ethan with shocked and surprised eyes who in turn gave her an affirmative tone, indicating that she had the right thing in her hand.

"Really?" She asked with fully widened eyes. She couldn't believe it.

"Yes" He replied with a small smile when he saw Amy's surprised face.

"You're really going on your last tour?" Amy asked with glee.

"Mmm" He nodded.

"And I get an exclusive ticket?" This was the part that excited her the most. She couldn't believe Ethan was giving her such tickets.

"You deserve it baby. You're one of my biggest fan remember? You deserve it" He told her with a proud smile, while Amy yelped excitedly. The day wasn't entirely a bad day after all. Blake would be able to solve the problem with the software, she gets a ticket to attend Ethan's concert....what else could go wrong??

"Thank you" She cheered, while Ethan smiled broadly, even though his eyes weren't as bright as his face. Amy finally tore her gaze from the tickets and looked at Ethan with a confused look on her face. "There are two tickets, why are you giving me two tickets?" She asked.

"So you can invite anybody you want. I noticed my bestie rival might be a good fan, you can invite her" He suggested.

"You mean Jade?" She asked. Of course it had to be Jade. Who else could he be referring to as his 'bestie rival'. She shook her head when she realized Ethan might be jealous of her baby girl.

"Yeah, that one"

"Of course. I have no one to invite anyway. Lair would be busy, or else it would have been fun to go with the both of them" She reasoned out loud.

"Yeah, I knew that already. I heard that he's looking into getting a new job" Ethan blurted out, making Amy look at him in surprise. How did he know that?

"How did you that?" Amy asked with cocked brows. She was sure no one knew about Lair's new job search, not even her parents, because that was the kind of person her brother was. He was used to doing things on his own and not telling people about it, because he had this silly superstitious belief that plans get jinxed when too many people knew about them. She wouldn't be too surprised had she heard it from Jade, because that was one special person to Lair, so how did Ethan come to know about it?

Ethan smiled at her when he saw the suspicious look on her face. "Honey you have to know that this city isn't as big as you think, and your famous and handsome hunk of a brother can't have a low-key life when there are thousands of female nurses, doctors and paramedics who just want a taste of him" He explained. Amy fell quiet for a while. His excuse was pliable. She wondered why she was even bothered about it a while ago. Ethan was a close friend and it wouldn't be that awkward if he knew a few things about their family. She chided herself for having suspicious thoughts.

Speaking about knowing things about them, something finally recalled in her head. She had remembered Ethan mentioning something about her mother knowing a secret about him which she had used to threaten him, years ago. She has been wondering what that secret might be. A secret which he didn't want anybody to know? She was curious about it.

She cleared her throat to gain Ethan's attention which she successfully gained. She looked at him and asked.

"You remember that secret you said my mother knows about you?–" She paused to observe his reaction. If he looked uncomfortable then she'd not press for it. But she couldn't let herself not be bothered about it, most especially when her mother knew about it. She might threaten him with it again. She didn't want her mother to inflict pain in the life of her friends. Micheal was enough.

Ethan knew what she was hinting at, so he smiled at her said, "You'll know in due time. Be patient"

Amy gazed at him silently for a few moments before she nodded. She didn't want to force it. if he said he'll tell her, then she'd wait for him to open up to her, just like they did in the past.

With that out of the way, they continued to talk about his upcoming tour; date and event centers. Amy couldn't wait for it.. What she didn't know was what fate had in store for her at this concert.
