It's just me and Ethan, in his apartment as we cook for his family. I mean he's cooking and I cut the vegetables and eat leftovers, but I'm collaborating. We haven't talked about the kiss, we probably will never talk about the kiss because I gave him one rule and I am now the one that wants to break it.
I look up and notice a covered surface, I had never noticed it before, I tilt my head and point at it. "What's that?" I ask and he stops cutting the vegetabes and follows my finger with his eyes. "There's a piano under the cover" he explains and I turn around to look at him. "You can play the piano?" I ask and he nods.
"Will you play for me?" I ask and I sound like a five years old girl. "I haven't played in years" he admitted and I shaked my head, not wanting to pressure him. "Ok whatever, when is your family coming?"I ask to change the subject. "Maybe an hour, could you set the table?" he asked me and I nodded walking past him to grab the silverware but stop right before the drawer to look at him cooking. It made me roll my eyes seeing him cooking.
This man can even play the piano
Is there something he can't do?
I set up the table and lean again against the counter as I watch him cook.
I could do this all day
I feel his hand moving around my shoulders as soon as we hear a knock on the door. He's nervous. I look up at him as he looks down at me and I smile. "It's okay" I whisper and he closes his eyes and I move his arm from around my shoulders making my way to the door. Once I open the door I find Sabrina in front of me holding her son.
He's sleeping but I don't see her husband near her. I smile at her but she looks quite worried and hands me the sleeping kid.
I haven't held a kid in ages, and he is adorable with short blonde hair wearing a mickey mouse t-shirt and blue short, but as soon as I grab the kid in my arms and before I can even welcome her Sabrina rushes in and runs to the kitchen and Ethan understands immediately that something must be wrong and holds her wrapping his arms around her, letting her head rest on his chest.
He left whatever activity he was doing to rush to her rescue.
I walk with the kid wrapped around me, holding him tightly and gently placing him on the couch as I turn around and see Ethan looking at me.
I tilt my head trying to understand what happened and he mouths an "her husband" and I nod, sitting near the child as I try not to wake him up. I place his head on my lap and caress his hair softly looking at Ethan as he motions me to take the kid to his bedroom and so I follow his instructions carefully moving the kid to his room and moving him to the bed giving him a quick kiss before closing the door and sitting back on the couch.
Ethan seems like a great brother, he cares so much about his siblings and doesn't need them to explain the situation, he is there to comfort them, to help them without needing an explanation or words.
