I slowly open it to see Ethan or Grayson, I'm assuming it's Ethan as Grayson cannot change his clothes that fast. "Ella, hi, sorry to disturb you this late." Ethan says. I set the knife down on the side knowing he's not going to kill me. "A knife wow?"

"Well it's eleven pm, I had to make sure I wasn't opening the door to a psychopath." I laugh. "So why are you here?"

"I came to bring you back your pen from today." Ethan replies.

"You came all this way at eleven o'clock at night to give me my pen? You could of just done it tomorrow." I scoff, taking the pen from his hand but he closes his other on top of mine sending warm tingles through my body.

"Maybe I just wanted to come see you. Cute pjs." Ethan smirks.

"You can't do that." I say snatching my hand out of his.

"Why not? You cannot deny we have a connection." Ethan says.

"Actually I can. The last time I even thought about it I was poisoned that's gods way of telling me no." I explain to him.

"Well I'm more of a satin guy myself so that's probably why." Ethan jokes with a small laugh.

"Your not funny." I say with a scowl.

"Oh I am, at least a little?"

"Nope."

"I think I am." Ethan smirks, knowing I'm going to crack any second. My smile peeks out for less than a second before I cover it again.

"Good night Ethan." I say before shutting the door and locking it. I head upstairs and crawl back into bed, I don't have feelings for Ethan do I?

Ethan's POV:

She doesn't think I saw her smile but I did, she doesn't think I'm going to make her notice our spark but I am.

"Where've you been?" Grayson asks when I get home.

"Visiting a friend." I reply with a smirk.

"You have been at school for two days, you don't have any friends apart from-" Grayson cuts himself off when he realises before storming over to me. He grabs me by the ruffs of my shirt and holds me up against the wall.

"Kinky, thought you had a girlfriend Grayson." I mock.

"I do." He grunts.

"Not for long." I smirk. Grayson tightens his grip before slamming me up against the wall again.

"Easy now Grayson, I'm sure you wouldn't want Ella to find out about the jealous and aggressive side of you. She only likes you for your innocence otherwise she'd be with me." I explain mock fully to him.

"Shut up Ethan or I swear you'll regret it!" Grayson threatens.

"Punch me then, give me a big nose bleed, that'll do it, that'll give me Ella's sympathy. Better yet break a bone then she'll want to look after me, in fact I'll do it for you." I say before banging my hand against the wall over and over. "She's gonna hate you for this."

"Would you... just stop you idiot!" Grayson snaps, pulling my wrist up.

"Make me." I prod.

"Ethan shut the fuck up." Grayson spits angrily.
