Pretty When You Cry (An Ethan Dolan fanfiction)

Chapter 37

Continued...

I hear a car honk outside and grab my things. It's pretty early in the day because we decided to road trip to West River Drive in Sacramento, it'll give us more time to spend there anyway. It's so beautiful there and the surroundings just give you actual goosebumps. I take my Polaroid with me and I think E and Gray will bring some of their nifty photography equipment too. Besides who doesn't love a long road trip with great company. I shut the door behind me and wave at Abel and Hannah. I don't see Ethan and Grayson anywhere, they're probably still getting ready.

I open the car door and throw my things before hopping in.

"Y'all this is gonna so fun! I'm way too excited!" Hannah says as she turns her body to face me.

"Right! I bought my camera with me... We need to capture those moments. Ja feel?"

"Girl yes! You know it!" She adjusts her rare view mirror and we wait a while for Grayson and Ethan. God, they take longer than most girls I know. I lay my body across the entire car seat and get glimpses of Hannah and Abel being cute. I scroll through my phone and take a few selfies. I have my sunglasses on to block out the sun. Moments later I hear a loud knock on the window making me jump and sit up.

"Let us in! We're so pumped right now!" Grayson yells. He looks like those excited little kids you see at a carnival or grocery store. I laugh.

I move my sunglasses over my head and see them both. Ethan looks so hot and my jaw drops. Hannah unlocks the door and I scoot over to let them in. Oh god, 6 hours of having to contain my sexual thoughts around Ethan in this car. Fuck me. Seriously. I sit near the window and Ethan scoots really close to me to let Grayson in. He smells like cologne. And not the bad kind. I roll down the window to get some fresh air in and we begin driving with some good tunes playing on full volume. Ethan places his hand between my thighs a few times and plays with my hair. I put my arm around his neck and we both sing the lyrics to Movements by Pham. That's his and Gray's favourite. We look so corny half the time but we don't care, Grayson joins in and so does Hannah and Abel. It's only been an hour drive so far but everybody seems to be having a good time.

5 hours later.

We finally arrive at our destination and we find a spot to park and we all grab our things and get out. The warm breeze feels amazing and the smell of nature makes me sigh. God, I feel like such a hippy sometimes. I literally hug trees and call them my friends.

Hannah takes a blanket out of her bag and lays it on the ground. I bought some fresh fruits and bottled water to stay hydrated and a couple of magazines. I'm a little nervous to take my shorts off, I mean everybody should always love their body but sometimes I feel a little shy. Hannah and Abel walk into the river and yell.

"It's so cold!! Guys hurry up and come in!" Abel gestures.

I look at Ethan and he is already undressing himself. Oh fuck. His body is something else. I can't take my eyes off of him and I see Grayson look at me with a smirk. Shit. I blink rapidly and turn away. Grayson almost tries to belly flop into the water but he fails miserably. My laugh comes out super dorky making Ethan and everyone else laugh too. I bend over and can't stop laughing I put my hand over my mouth to stop myself but it's no use. I see Ethan laugh just as much as I do. He walks over to me and hugs me still laughing. Sweet baby jesus I can feel his back muscles against the palm of my hand. He pulls away and looks at me.

"Aren't you coming in?" He has his arms relaxed on my shoulders.

"Yeah..." I sound a little nervous. And I think he notices.

"Yeah... So come on." He smirks and laughs a little.

"I... I'm a little... You know..." I look around then at him. He looks at me. God, why can I never finish my sentences around him.
