Payton's POV
I stepped into my apartment, placing my keys and purse on my kitchen counter. I took my hair out of the bun, shaking it so it fell down my back.
I took a shower and got into bed, when I heard my phone bing from a text message.
Ethan💘: Good night love. I hope you had a good time today. I know I did😋.
I smiled to myself, biting my lip, before answering.
Me: I had an amazing time also😘. Thank you for taking me out Ethan❤️.
Was that too much? Should I be more subtle? Before I lost my nerve, I pressed send. A few seconds later, my phone vibrated in my hands.
Ethan💘: It was my pleasure. We should do this more often.
Me: I'm looking forward to it.
Ethan💘: Goodnight sweet pea.
With a quick typed goodnight, I was able to fall asleep.
I woke up to the sun shining in my face, and yet another sweet text from Ethan. I replied, and got out of bed, tying my hair into a messy top knot.
Walking out of my room and into the kitchen, I made myself eggs and bacon. I took the plate to my living room, and turned on the tv. I ate while I watched, until I was done. When I finally finished, I washed my plate and brushed my teeth. After rinsing my mouth with water, I began to wash my face with my tea tree face wash.
As I washed the last suds off of my face, I heard a know at the door. I slowly opened the door.
Ethan. I smiled at him.
"Good morning." He said giddily, wrapping his arms around my waist, having to bend a little to accommodate my smaller height. Standing on my top toes, I wrapped my arms around his neck. I stood back letting the door open wider so he could come in.
"Nice house you have here. Pretty cozy." Ethan acknowledged looking around. I thanked him, closing the door.
When we were sitting on the couch facing each other, I finally asked
"What are you doing here?" I brought my legs up onto the couch, my feet tucked under my butt.
"I'm taking you on another date. But this one requires an overnight stay at ma maison." I raised my eyebrow, crossing my arms over my chest.
"What makes you think I'm agreeing to sleep over your house?" I asked squinting my eyes. He smiled and laughed.
"Still feisty I see. Nothing is going to happen. Promise." I knew I couldn't say no to him. Especially the way he was looking at me with his blue orbs.
