The Big Brilliant Book Of Emon One-Shots

Makeover Challenge

-Written Late 2014-

"Simon?"
Mrs Payne looked up at her son's best friend. Simon was quite a lot taller than her, meaning that she had to look up.
"What the heck?"
Simon narrowed his eyes and pointed back to Josh and Vik in the car, who were going mental.
"They tried to do my make up and failed horribly."
Mrs Payne laughed, patting Simon's shoulder.
"They did a shocking job, didn't they?"
Simon nodded, and flashed his middle finger back at the two in the car, who were now acting like monkeys.
"So, why'd you come over?" she asked, letting Simon inside and shutting the door.
"The guys said we were getting ready to go out, and then Josh said I was trying to impress Ethan so they brought me here to see what he'd think."
Mrs Payne chuckled.
"He's in his bedroom."
Simon thanked Mrs Payne before dashing upstairs. All jokes aside, however, Simon actually had a feeling for Ethan, a feeling that made his heart numb when he spotted him. Simon didn't dare tell anybody but his mum, who had told Simon that it was ok and things like that happened. But, Simon also knew that Ethan probably had same feeling, because the only person Ethan dared tell half of the things he did was Simon.
Simon came to Ethan's room, locked as usually. He pressed an ear against it, and heard Ethan's soft whistling. He was whistling to some kind of song, but Simon couldn't make it out.
He let out a sigh. He looked hideous. Why he was doing this was a question he'd never know. Taking a shaky breath, Simon knocked.
"Yeah?"
Simon opened the door slightly.
"Hey, Ethan."
Ethan shot up and sprung over to the door, opening it and flinging himself at Simon.
"Simon! Yay!"
Once Simon had hugged back, Ethan pulled away, and that was when he noticed.
"Umm Simon..."
Simon rolled his eyes and followed Ethan into his room.
"Josh and Vik did it. They said that it was to impress you."
Ethan giggled, and rubbing his thumb down Simon's cheek.
"Awww how cute!"
"Whatcha think?" Simon shyly blushed, locking eyes with Ethan. Ethan smiled, looking at the smily faces and big red lipstick mark dribbled down his face.
"Well..."
Ethan giggled, and beckoned Simon to follow him. They went into the bathroom, where Ethan led Simon to the sink.
"You're beautiful Simon, no matter what they do to you." Ethan smiled, staring at Simon's reflection in the mirror. The eyes stared back, causing Ethan's cheeks to flush pink.
"Thanks... But honestly, please."
Ethan smiled, and filled his hand with water. He scrubbed Simon's face clean, whipping away every last bit of makeup.
"Simon, you looked fine. But please, never again... You look better now. Stick to no makeup Simon." Ethan smiled, turning the tap off and looking Simon dead in the eyes.
"Ethan..." Simon whispered, running a hand through his dirty blonde hair. Ethan chuckled.
"It's true. Simon, you're beautiful without makeup. I-I like you better without it."
Ethan swung his arms around Simon's neck, elevating himself higher.
"Simon I... I need to tell you..."
"What..?"
"I love... I love you..."
When they finally became level, Simon's chubby friend turned his head and pressed their lips together. In sync, both of the Sidemen's eyes fluttered shut, letting the soft kiss sink in. Simon slowly moved his hands to Ethan's hips and around his waist, making Ethan's face fluster a pink colour.
"Ethan!"
Ethan pushed Simon away and gasped, looking into Simon's glimmering, lust filled eyes.
"Ethan!"
Ethan looked at Simon, and ran to the door. Simon looked away, catching his breath, his head in a loop. What just happened? Did Ethan really just say he loved him and then kissed him?
"Does Simon want to stay for dinner?" Simon heard Mrs Payne's words, making him shoot his phone out to tell Josh and Vik to go home and leave him.
Ethan shot a look at Simon, who nodded.
"Yeah!"
Ethan walked over to Simon, who smiled gently and blushed. Ethan giggled, running the back of his hand down Simon's cheek.
"Do you love me too?" Ethan whispered, staring him deep into the eyes. Simon smiled, and rubbed his hands on his chest.
"Ethan... I do... I love you too..."
Ethan smiled, and nudged Simon gently.
"Let's go to my room. Then we can kiss a little more."
Simon giggled, and their hands slipped together.
