Hanging Out

(Ethan x Mikey because yes-)

Ethan's POV

I've been sitting in my room for about two hours now, trying to finish up this dumb project that's supposed to be for next week Tuesday. This stupid thing's worth 25% of our grade, and I'm only halfway done with it.

You're probably wondering why I couldn't ask for help to make this go faster, since everyone else did it in the class, or am I just going to make up excuses so that I could work alone, by myself?

Yes, yes I am.

The rest of the class are basic chumps who don't know how to do things right, they're either halfway decent or really terrible, and 85% of the time they're terrible! So I'd rather work myself off than risk getting a bad grade with some idiots that don't know how to write a document on Microsoft Word!

I mean, come on, why else would people praise me for no reason whatsoever? They're all blinded by my charms, and my money, that they take one look at me and immediately want to be my friend. How else would I had a whole group chat embedded in my phone in about 2 days?

There's this one person though that's extremely clingy, and it gets REALLY annoying! His name is Michael, people usually call him Mikey, but I just thought the nickname was cringe, don't know how he's not embarrassed by it.

He hangs around me ALL the time, keeps trying to make me somewhat interested in him. When will he get the point that I only use him for company, and that he's not my friend!? Even when I try to push him away, even when I try to be mean to him, he still SOMEHOW stays by my side!

Why!?

I hear a knock on the door behind me, I turn around and see my Father right in front of me. I've never really talked to him much, but he makes time for me I guess. I turn around my chair, making a face implying to tell me what he wants.

Mr. Lamber(Dominic):"Hey buddy! I just want you to know that me and your mother are stepping out for a bit, we have to go to an interview that someone wanted to cooperate with us-" He starts off, but I cut him off very quickly.

Ethan:"Yeah yeah yeah, spare me the details!" I say while turning around my chair and waving my hand off to him, not really paying attention to what he was saying.

My father just stares at me for about a minute, probably in disappointment. I just ignored him and went on with my day. The silence broke when he decided to say something else.

Mr. Lamber(Dominic):"Tristan will be going with us as well, that means you'll be home alone." He says while I still ignored him.

Honestly, I could care less if he was out of the house or not, if he was out of the house, that would be a relief, since I wouldn't have to deal with his annoying bum for about 4 hours. I don't really know why's he's telling me this, since he KNOWS that me and Tristan don't have a good relationship whatsoever, even if we tried.

Mr. Lamber(Dominic):"That means that someone needs to be in the house with you, so I suggest that you invite one of your friends for the time being while we're out." He says out of the blue. I immediately jerk my head up and turn around.

What did he say!? WHY would I need to invite somebody over!? For protection of the house or something!? Doesn't he remember that we have high top security!? And plus, don't we have one or two servants in our house 24/7!?

Ethan:"Why do I need to invite somebody over!? Aren't the cleaners around!? They'll keep me company!" I say getting up from my chair and stomping over to him.
