High Schoolers - Ethan X Reader ¦¦ DISCONTINUED

Time To Perform

Your POV

Alice and I had practiced all week long for this and it is finally here, the day where we perform our 'alternative' version of Seven Nation Army. I watch others sing a Capella, rock versions, these guys are extremely talented. And then it rolls around to Alice and I's turn. I stand up and grab the acoustic guitar Darren has set out for me. I get the sheet of paper with all the chords on and place it on the music stand. As Alice and I are stood in front of the class Darren sets up the microphones for us and we start playing.

Once we finished I smile and set the guitar back down where Darren had put it, everybody is clapping, probably because Alice has a phenomenal voice, I mean yeah, I did a verse and then the backup vocals, but Alice was really the main star here.

Next up was Ethan, I smiled at him as we had been talking all week but we'd never spoke in person, which is weird considering we've been hanging out all week, but we have just been so busy talking with our other friends because we both know we would get teased if they knew how much we've been talking. Ethan picks up the electric guitar that others were using and I smiled, I thought he was going to do a more rock version like everyone else, but then he stood the guitar beside him and music started playing. I instantly recognize it as the music from the Battlefield 1 trailer and I smile widely, I have this song downloaded on my phone, it is so badass. Ethan starts singing and I am so shocked, his voice is really good, like what the hell, and then it gets to the guitar solo and he picks up the electric guitar, playing it perfectly, and I am absolutely gobsmacked, he is phenomenal. Ethan finishes up his song and everyone applauds him, some even cheer for how good he was, I am still utterly speechless.

"Okay kids, so this time I am giving you an extra weekend for this assignment because it's quite a difficult one, this will be due a week today and I will be pairing you up, kind of, but, you will be doing a mash up of two or more songs. Any genre, any tempo, as long as they fit together well, you will also be getting your results from this assignment on Monday. So, Nestor, you come and pick a name out of this hat", Ethan walks towards Darren, Darren must have a list of peoples names that aren't in the hat so he knows people don't pick themselves. "(Y/L/N)! You will be working with Nestor!", I look at Ethan and see he is already smiling, I smile at him and get excited. I sit next to Ethan talking about different musical pieces that could go together, but not obviously, all while the rest of the class is picking names out of the hat. I look at Darren to see him wink at Ethan who looks very confused. Just like me right now.

Ethan's POV

Wowie, I'm working with (Y/N), we've hardly spoke in real life before, I look over at Darren who winks at me and I just look at him very confused, then (Y/N) turns to me and we continue discussing song ideas, I make a list of song ideas.

The List

-Teenagers by MCR and WMYB by 1D (already done .-.)

-Sippy Cup by MM and Mercy by SM

-Centuries by FOB and Heathens by TOP

-Heathens and Mad Hatter

-Cool For The Summer and Eye Of The Tiger

-Everyday and Pity Party

"I have an idea!" (Y/N) exclaims happily.

"Well what is it?" I ask

"Your version of Seven Nation Army and Bulletproof"

"Bulletproof?" I ask very confused.

"Yep, by La Roux", I am still confused.

"It's okay, I'll send you it, I bet it sounds great together", she says smiling then she grabs her bag and the bell rings.

<<Time skip to the end of school again>>

I check my phone to see that (Y/N) has already sent me a link to the song. I sigh, it's definitely not my music taste but I'm sure I can survive. Then my phone buzzes, another message from (Y/N).

'Heyyyyy, it's definitely me (Y/N) I love you sososo much and I was wondering if you would be my date to this party tonight', then my phone is taken out of my hands.

"Mark no!" My phone is handed back to me, the message he sent reading 'Hey babygirl, I'd fucking love to be your date to the party, I'll bring condoms yea? ;)'

"Haha, we're going to a party tonight" Says Mark, no shit Sherlock.

"Well I'm gonna have to stay at your house, you know what my mom is like with me and parties."

"Yeah, you can stay at mine, I'll pick you up in an hour so you can get ready at mine? Or do you want a ride home and I'll stay outside?"

"The second option sounds like a good one mt marklesparkles, I'm sure my mom will be fine with it if you're parked outside."

"DON'T FORGET CONDOMS!!" Shouts Seán

"Ahhh whatever Irish turd!" I laugh and climb into Marks car. "Okay, so now I have a date to this party but I don't know what to wear"

"I wouldn't worry about what to wear I'd worry about your emo fringe" Mark teases.

"Yeah yeah, I'll style it, but what the fuck do I wear?"

"I don't know dude, I don't do parties, ask Tyler." And with that I message Tyler asking him what to wear, he tells me I'm just like (Y/N) asking Alice what to wear.

"Dude, tell me, I don't do parties"

"Calm down, just get a nice shirt or something and roll the sleeves up then have the top two buttons undone, sorted, all I can hear is Alice telling (Y/N) to wear something short, or a dress, or sparkly."

"And why is she telling her to wear that?"

"Because she has a date, (Y/N) is stressing because she wants to look nice but she hates skirts and dresses"

"Who is her date?"

"Bro are you stupid? It's you"

"Oh, well if she wants to look nice next to me she can wear sweatpants."

"Whatever, Alice is picking out a dress for he- ALICE YOU ARE NOT GOING SHOPPING NOW!" Tyler sighs "Well, apparently Alice is now taking her shopping for a new dress" I giggle down the phone knowing that (Y/N) wants to make an effort for me.

"Well, I have to go Ty I'll see you tonight" and I hang up.

Oh god, I start packing.

"Hair gel, a shirt, nice jeans, nice shoes, underwear, aftershave, deodorant, toothbrush and toothpaste" I mumble everything as I put it in my bag. As I'm walking out the door I shout to my mom "Mom!? I'm stopping at Mark's house tonight, love you!"

And with that I climb into Mark's car and we drive to his house.

AN~ Okay, I get this chapter was kind of all over the place but I promise, the next chapter will be meh and then the chapter after that is the juicy one ;)
