ethan tends to struggle with his insecurities that i find gorgeous on him. i just wish he could see what i see..
i just came home from work, ethan worked from home today. earlier today , he posted on his instagram talking about his insecurities and how other people aren't alone. i took a deep breath and went upstairs to greet ethan.
as i came closer to the door, i heard light sobs. i opened the door to see ethan crying while hugging his pillow.
"eth? baby." i said walking towards him. he didn't say a word, he looked at me and cried even harder.
i didn't want to push him to tell me what's wrong just yet so i just took him in my embrace, waiting for him to quiet down.
a few minutes past and he stopped crying, only light sniffles filled the room.
"you wanna tell me what's wrong , bub?" i ask ethan, rubbing his back slowly.
"i'm so ugly. i don't even know why you chose me. you deserve someone better than me. i'm so out of your league." he said starting to cry again.
"sh, baby.. i chose you because you're not like the others. you're perfect for me. only for me. i don't care what you look like, okay? i find you handsome in every way possible. you're unbelievably good looking to me. it doesn't matter what others think of you. you're not ugly, baby. i am in love with you and all of your flaws. i wish you could see the same person i see." i said rubbing his back with one hand and running my hands through his hair with the other.
"i hate who i am. so much. i get comments all the time that people think graysons the better looking twin, or they wish i looked more like grayson, and some people even said that they think you will leave me for grays-son." my heart broke then and there.
"i will never .. leave you for grayson. i only want you. i want to spend the rest of my life , with you. i want my kids to have your face. not grayson's. baby, i love you more than life itself. i wouldn't trade you for the world." tears came falling down my face.
"promise?"
"promise."
"thank you , baby. i love you." he said making his grip on my waist tighter.
"i love you too, ethan."
we soon fell asleep in each other's embrace.
