I woke up to my alarm clock ringing. "Noooo! I refuse. No school. I don't wanna!" I say to no one. I really hate school. I groan and start my normal routine which consist of me laying in bed for another 20 minutes until I actually start getting ready. Finally I grab my crutches and get up. First things first, brush my teeth. I'm sort of OCD so I have a very set routine that I do every morning for school with out fail. I will probably have a heart attack if I do something out of order. I walk into my bathroom. I look at the cup that I put my toothbrush in only to see no toothbrush. I frantically start to look around until I remember I left it at the twins house. "Shoot!" I say to my self. I send a quick text to Ethan telling him I'm coming over although I'm pretty sure he's still asleep. I carefully walk down the stairs and make my way over to Ethan's house.

If they are still asleep then I didn't want to wake them up so I just opened their door. I make my way up stairs and down the hallway to the bathroom. I try to be as quiet as I could. I got into the bathroom and grabbed my toothbrush. I quickly make my way out of the bathroom and into the hall. I make it halfway down the hall when I run into someone and I fall on to my butt. "Owww." I groan. "Madison, what are you doing here?" I look up to see who it was and it was Ethan. A shirtless Ethan. Oh my Marry mother of Jesus his muscles will be the death of me. "I came to get my toothbrush. Didn't you get my text?" I ask. Ethan shakes his head. He extends his hand for me to take and I do. Ethan pulled me up and bent down and grabbed my crutches. "Thanks." I say. "No problem." Ethan says with a smile. Oh this boy is just to cute. "Ok well I should probably get going." I say as I try to walk around him. "Here I'll give you a ride." Ethan said as he bent down in front of me. I smile and hop on his back. Ethan walked down the stairs and past the kitchen. We also walked past the living room and I saw Jake past out on the couch.

"How long is Jake staying here?" I ask. "A week. Apparently their school flooded or something so his schools canceled." Ethan replied. "Lucky!" I say. "I know right." I burry my head into Ethan's neck. "I'm sleepy." I say. "So am I." Ethan said. He opened my front door and took me up to my room. I kissed his cheek before he sat me down. "Thank you kind sir." I say. "No problem princess." Ethan said. I can't help but smile. I've always wanted a boyfriend to call me princess. Now Ethan's calling me princess, I just have to work on the boyfriend part. "Ok well I'll see you at school!" Ethan said. "Ok bye!" I wave to Ethan as he leaves my room. I was about to go brush my teeth when my phone started to ring. I picked it is and saw that Jordan was calling me. "Hey! I miss you Jojo!" Jojo was my nickname for her. "I miss you too! How's everything with you know how?" You know who was Ethan. "Nothing new but oh my pickles I saw his shirtless and I honestly don't know how I didn't die right in front of him. And he keeps calling he princess." I gush. "Aww you've always wanted someone to call you princess. But I have a boyfriend." She says. "Shut the fudge nuggets up. Who?" I yell into the phone. "AJ." She says. I gasp. "AJ? As in the AJ that you've been majorly crushing on for the past 3 years?" I ask. "That's the one!" We both squeal into the phone. I'm so happy for her because I know AJ is super sweet. "Ugh! Now I just have to get you know who to be my boyfriend then we can both not be single losers." I say. "I know you're such a loser." Jordan jokes. "Gee thanks. But seriously he's just so perfect and I just want to be able to call him mine!" I say. "Who is perfect and you want to be able to call yours?" I look up at the door to see Ethan. Oh shiitake mushrooms. "Jordan I'll talk to you later. Loves you bye!" I say. I barely heard her say goodbye before I hung up the phone. "Oh uh n-no one." I say. I would die if he knew I was talking about him. Ethan raises his eyebrows at me. "Ok well I wanted to know if you wanted a ride to school." Ethan said. I smiled. "That would be great thanks." I say. "Ok well see you later." Ethan said. He turned around and walked out of the door. I was getting off my bed when he stuck his head into my room. "And you're telling me who you were talking about later." He said before his head disappeared. I huffed. This is just great.

I rushed outside and got into Ethan and Grayson's car. "Sorry I was late I got a late start today." I apologize. They had been sitting outside my house for about 10 minutes. "It's fine." Ethan says from the driver seat. I turned to Jake who was also in the back seat with me. "What are you doing today?" I asked. "Just chilling at their house. Maybe I'll sneak into your house and snoop through your stuff." He says with an evil grin. "She has a tarantula." Ethan says. Jake looked at my with shock written all over his face. "Why?" He asked. I shrugged. "They fascinate me." I say.

We finally get to school and everyone one got out. Ethan handed Jake the keys. "Bye guys!" Jake said. "Bye!" Ethan, Grayson, and I said in unison. I give Jake a hug and he kissed me on the cheek. I smiled and blushed. "Bye." Jake said again. "Bye." I said with a smile. Grayson, Ethan, and I walked away. "Do you like him?" Ethan asked. I shrugged. "I honestly don't know yet." I say. We get inside the school and Ethan and I headed off to History class which is actually one of my favorite subjects next to Biology. Ethan and I took our seats in the back. We were taking notes again today. "Ethan can I borrow your notes again?" I asked. He nodded. I really need to get my eyes checked.
