~Chapter64~

I'm so glad he came. With hastened steps, he quickly reached my side and covered me using the umbrella.

I thought Ethan was coming, I stood corrected.

     "Cherie, are you okay?" He asked as he stared at me with those worried blue eyes of his.

     "Yeah, I'm fine."
     "That's good."
     "But how did you know I was here?"
     "I saw on the TV that your bus broke down."

     "Oh."

     "Come on, I'll buy you something hot to drink."

     "Thanks a lot, Daniel."

Ethan just got there moments after Daniel came.

     "Where is she?"

Then there was a store called 'Hot Place Tea and Coffee.' He entered the place and saw Daniel and Cherie together. They seem happy as they chat with each other. With fast steps, he went near Cherie and tapped her.

I felt a tap on my back and I saw Ethan soaking wet. I was shocked.

     "Ethan, are you okay?"
     "Yeah, how about you, I was worried sick when I saw the news."
     "I'm okay, as you can see. Daniel brought me here to warm up."

     "That's a relief, it's good to know you're alright." He said as he gave me a hug, so I answered.
     "Ethan what's wrong?"

     "I'm sorry, I wasn't here for you."
     "What are you talking about Ethan?"

     "I didn't know because your line got cut."

     "It's alright, Ethan. I'm okay."

Daniel cleared his throat and we pulled away from the hug. I then bought a hot chocolate mint latte, and paid for it. I then gave it to him.

     "Thanks, Cher."
     "Are you cold?"
     "A little."

     "Here. Take my scarf." I said and wrapped around his neck.

He smiled at me.

     "Thanks, Cher, you're the best."

Daniel is feeling awkward.

     "Oh, how did you two knew I was here?"

     "We saw that the bus you usually ride on broke on TV." They said at the same time.
     "Oh, that's why."
     "Daniel, thanks for saving me earlier. If it weren't for you I could've gotten sick because it was raining hard."

     "It's no problem, Cherie."
     "Cherie, I want to go home." Ethan said to me.
     "Okay, Ethan did you bring your car?"
     "Yeah, it's outside."
     "Can you drive?"
     "I can."
     "Okay, Ethan just be careful."
     "Okay, I will."
     "Daniel, see you at school. Bye."
     "Cherie, wait."

As I heard him call my name, I turned around.

     "What is it?"
     "How about the movie?"
     "We can watch tomorrow, besides it's getting kind of late anyway.

     "Oh is that so. What time tomorrow?"
      "How about 4:30 pm?"
     "Sound good."
     "I'll see you at school. I have to take care of Ethan because he has a cold."
     "Oh, okay then, I'll see you tomorrow."
     "Yeah, bye Daniel."

So Ethan got in the driver seat and started driving. After a few seconds of silence, I asked him.

     "Ethan, are you sure you can drive?"
     "Of course, I can.
     "With that state? No I can't let you?"
     "Why? Then who will drive?"
     "Let's call a chauffeur."
     "Okay, let's do that."
Minutes later the man arrive.
     "Did you call a chauffeur?"
     "Ah, yes."
     "Come on, let's get in and the driver will drive us home.
     "Um, Miss? Your address please."
      "Oh, right, you can drop us off in Snow Street."
     "Okay."
So we sat at the back. I laid his head on my lap until we reach to my house.
