Ethan Carters, the guy from a poor family that you gave everything up for. Left your loving parents behind for a false life in the country.

You met Ethan a few years back, having met him in a bakery near your college and his community college. It was ‘love’ at first sight. If you can even call what you felt that.

We’ll be here when you come home. is what your parents told you. We’ll have a man waiting for you when you come home. Is what they also said.

Then came along Lily Rose Williams. And Ethan forgot all about you, started treating you horribly, constantly getting angry with you whenever Lily blamed you for something you didn’t do.

And that lead to a rift forming in your relationship. Eventually leading you to the point of setting up her birthday party and farewell party before you’re supposed to send her and Ethan back to the city when you leave. But you didn’t. Instead you ended up not paying a thing, your workplaces higher ups caught on and scolded Lily.

You left and took a ride home. It was quiet, raining. The air smelled gently of an oncoming storm this night. Your resolve strengthening when you checked your social media on the way home, finding Lily had posted a photo of Ethan wrapped up with her, the caption saying You’re always by my side, for that I thank you. That photo only strengthened your resolve to leave Ethan.

Upon getting home, you were texted by Ethan. >If you continue treating Lily this way, you can forget our wedding. But, it was almost comical because back in the city, your parents wait with your childhood friend James Oliver Harrington. A rich successor to the Harrington family name. While you, are the eldest heir to your family name. James and you had grown up together, and he once confessed to you but at that time you were already head over heels for Ethan.
