Ethan's Jealous Side

Ethan scowled as he heard giggles, and folded his arms. He didn't want to look back, but he needed to rid off the two love birds.
He had been minding his own business, loafing around on the sofa of the Sidemen house, when he was interrupted by Simon and some girl he'd never seen before jumping onto the armchair and giggling with each other. No, usually Ethan wouldn't have minded, but he did, because of what had occurred a week ago.
Ethan heard the sound of a kiss, and felt his eyes begin to bubble. Slowly, he got up, and made his way out of the living room, and he knew that neither of them had cared very much.
Ethan didn't know, but Simon had seen him, and smirked to himself.

"Josh..."
Ethan's head fell into Josh's chest, who sighed softly and hugged him.
"I'm so sorry Ethan..."
Ethan sniffled as a tear slowly ran down his cheek. He now had a feeling that Simon hated him, and if that was the case, how could he live around him anymore?
"Ethan maybe you need to talk to him.."
"It's no use. He hasn't talked to me since, he just gives me dirty looks."
"I'm serious. You've been through so much together! You know he can post your nudes on Facebook and stuff?"
"How do you know-"
"That doesn't matter," Josh smiled, and then shook his head. "You can't let him use you like this. You need to talk to him."
Ethan nodded, and looked up at Josh, before pulling from his soft, loving arms.
"I'm not going to until she's gone." Ethan folded his arms. "How long have they been dating?"
"A few days. Don't worry, Ethan."
"But he hates me."
"He doesn't."
Ethan sighed, and look up at Josh, who nodded.
"We'll play some games together, don't worry."

Simon smiled, and waved as his new girlfriend walked off. He was almost forcing himself into this. To be honest, he didn't even like her that much. This was to gain back something, something missing.
Simon sighed, and looked over to the coat hanger, spotting Ethan's coat.
"Oh Ethan..."
He moved over to the coat, rummaging through it's pockets, until he felt a silky paper. Gently, he pulled it out, to find a picture of the pair, and Simon sighed.
Slowly, he made his way upstairs, staring up as he went. Fuck life had been a mess ever since last week, and he'd been desperate to gain back Ethan's trust, and his love, but no luck so far.
The girl was supposed to make him jealous, and at the moment, it seemed like she had proved her job.
Simon bit his lip, and slowly opened the door to Josh's room.
"Good night Josh."
He looked around, spotting Ethan curled in Josh's arms. Josh looked up, and said nothing.
Simon scanned the ground, feeling his heart sink. He was loosing his friends too, and worse, Ethan and Josh might just...
No. That couldn't be right.
However, he could feel Ethan's jealousy brewing up, and knew that she might just have been the trick.
"Night Vik."
Vik looked up, and shook his head, removing his headphones. No surprise he was talking to his distant boyfriend Baki, or Lachlan and the others.
"Night Simon."

Simon lay in bed, blinking slowly. He couldn't sleep. He was having too many nightmares, always the same, always about Ethan.
He remembered how exactly a week ago it had happened. He couldn't remember exactly everything, he didn't know what they had fought about, but he knew it had torn them both apart, and made both so angry that hadn't talked since.
He heard a noise, and the door slowly creak open. He squeezed his eyes shut, afraid of who it would be, until he heard a soft hum, and fingers touch his shoulder.
"Simon..."
Simon froze, feeling his body stop. Was it really... Him?
He tried to speak, but his mouth went dry, and his body numb. Within the seconds this had happened, he felt the sheets lift and a body slip in, cupping his arms around Simon's waist, and pulling him into his lap so that, for the first time in a week, they were spooning once again.
"I am so sorry... I-I..."
Simon smiled, before slowly running a hand down Ethan's.
"Did she make you jealous?"
"W-what? N-no!"
Simon smiled, and Ethan could read Simon like a book, and knew that he wanted the real answer.
"Yeah..."
"Mm..." Simon sighed, and Ethan licked his lips. "Just as I thought. You're such a jealous boyfriend."
The last word made him tingle, and he bit his lip, watching as Simon turned to face him.
"B-boyfriend?"
Simon fluttered his eyes, before he slowly, yet meaningfully, leaned in to push his lips against Ethan's and they shared a kiss that meant the world to them.
"Welcome home, Sweetheart."
