After my long day at school and then work, all I wanted to do was go home and cuddle with Ethan and watch movies. I smile at the thought as I press the elevator button to my floor. When I reach the door I hear voices other than Ethan's. And immediately know he has invited his friends over. I let out a big sigh before using my key to open the front door.
"Hey guys." I say to everyone as I walk in. 5 pairs of eyes all land on me. I recognize them as Ethan, Grayson, Aaron, Alex and Sam they all greet me from there spot on the couch. Except Ethan who walks up to me, wrapping his arm around me and giving me a light kiss on the cheek. "How was your day, beautiful?" He whispers in my ear. I let out yet another sigh. "Let's just say I'm in desperate need of a nap." I say chuckling at the end. "Well let me kick these guys out and then let's head upstairs." He says turning towards his friends and brother.
I quickly grab his arm. "No Ethan. It's okay let them stay I'll be fine." "Are you sure?" He asks with a concerned face. "Positive" I smile back at him. "Thank you, baby" he says kissing my forehead before heading over to the rowdy group of boys crowded on my couch.
I walk upstairs and change into some comfy joggers and an adidas thank top and take my contacts out and crawl into my side of the bed. I turn to my nightstand to grab my phone but it's not there. I search around for a second before remembering that I had left it on the kitchen counter downstairs. I start walking downstairs but something makes me stop in my tracks. One of the boys mentioning my name. I stand out of sight to hear what they are talking about.
"Dude, not to be rude but....don't you think Y/N put on some weight?" My mouth drops shocked by what one of my boyfriends friends had just said about me to my boyfriend. "Some weight? Try A LOT of weight!" I recognize that voice as Ethan's. why would he say that about me? Looking down I look at my body. He's right. I'm fat. Too fat. I wipe a tear from my eye and make my presence known downstairs.
"Hey babe. I though you were going to take a nap?" Ethan asks watching me. "I just forgot my phone," I say avoiding eye contact. I quickly run back upstairs with tears streaming down my face. Not only did Ethan not defend me, he joined in on the rude comments and made me feel even more insecure. Not that he's wrong though I am much too fat for someone like Ethan. I cry myself to sleep.
The next morning
I wake up the next morning and feel Ethan's arms around me. I smile before I remember the words said last night and my mood changes. "Well if you think I'm fat I'm gonna do something about it." I whisper before getting out of bed and putting on my gym clothes. I sneak past Ethan who is still asleep and hurry downstairs to the gym.
~~~~~Ethan's POV
I wake up and try to snuggle into Y/N but she's not there. It's strange because today is her day off and we usually spend the mornings in bed together before making breakfast. Maybe she's downstairs I walk downstairs but don't see her anywhere and I notice that her car keys are gone. I assume she just had some errands to run so I start making food for when she gets back. About an hour later Y/N walks in sweaty in her workout clothes. I didn't know she went to the gym? "Hey baby, I made you breakfast." I tell her kissing her forehead.
"Um I'm not very hungry but thank you" she smiles and kisses my cheek. "But there chocolate chip pancakes your favorite." I pout to her. She suddenly pulls away from me "well apparently I've gained too much weight to eat those so sorry." She hurried upstairs before I can stop her. What was she talking about? Oh my....she heard what I said to the guys last night. I run upstairs and hear the shower running. I silently walk into the bathroom stripping my clothes. It's only when I get close to the shower I can hear quiet sobs "Y/N...." I whisper grabbing her from behind by her hips. I leave a wet kiss on her shoulder before turning her around to face me. "I'm sorry I never meant for you to hear what I said.."
"That doesn't matter Ethan, what matters is that you said it!" She yells at me. "But baby it's not true. I only said it because I didn't want to make the guys feel awkward if I blew up at them for saying it. Looking back I should have handled it better but I panicked princess I didn't know why to do and the words just shot out of my mouth. And I immediately regretted it the second the words left my mouth. I'm sorry baby girl, please forgive me?"
After my little speech she reaches up giving me small kisses on my lips, shooting fireworks through out my entire body. She pulls away and I whimper. Hungry for the feeling of her lips in mine. "I forgive you." She says shyly smiling at me. "I love you." I say before pulling her bare body closer to me. "I love you too e-tee-wee-tee."
Im so tired of school and I am ready to sacrifice myself to the school demon. By the way big Sean's new album gives me life. ~C🌺🏐
