Ethan and I were enjoying a relaxing evening watching Batman and eating our favorite snacks because both of us had been needing to relax lately. I scoot closer to Ethan and put my hand on top of his. He looks slightly uncomfortable and moves his hand. "Are you alright Eth?" I ask him. "Yea. Imma just go to the bathroom real quick. Don't worry about pausing it." He says standing up and grabbing his phone. "Okay" I smile and kiss his cheek before he completely stands up. Ethan sighs and wipes the cheek I gave him a kiss on. Did I do something wrong?
Ethan walks to the bathroom and closes the door. About 6 minutes later and he hasn't come out of the bathroom. I pause the movie to go check on him. As I get closer to the bathroom, I can here him talking to someone on the phone sounding frustrated. "I know--i know gray, yes I do--I-- well how do you nicely tell your girlfriend that shes clingy and annoying?" I move back down stares and on to the couch. Why would Ethan say that? All i wanted was to have a day together considering we are always busy. I don't even have time to be clingy. A tear falls down my face but I wipe it away quickly when I hear the bathroom door opening. If Ethan wants space I'll give him space.
He plops down on the couch putting his arm around me. I move away from him and stand up.
"I think I'm gonna go for a walk." I say putting my sweater on. "Okay" Ethan says standing up. "Alone" I say before walking out the door.
Ethan was hurt and confused. They were supposed to spend their day together. He shouldn't be one to criticize though seeing as how he left for 10 minutes to get away from her. But he felt different now that she wasn't snuggled up in his arms. Now, he felt like she was all he wanted, all he needed. And now he was felling terrible for what he had just said to his twin brother about Y/N "thank goodness she didn't hear me." Ethan mumbles to himself.
Y/Ns POV
I walk back into the apartment and Ethan stands up from the couch. "Hey baby." He says wrapping his arms around me and pecking my cheek. I only mumble a hello and walk towards the couch. Ethan comes and sits next to me. "I think I'm just gonna go to bed." I say waking upstairs "okay I'll be up in a bit." Ethan says and continues watching tv
That night I fell asleep on my side of the bed instead of snuggling up to Ethan like I usually do. "Babe? Why's aren't you--" Ethan stops talking once he notices my eyes are closed. He sighs and turns off the light before crawling into bed. This went on for many days. I would sleep on my side of the bed and give Ethan his space. Because I thought that's what he wanted. Little did I know it was killing him a little bit every day.
One morning I woke up to muffled whimpering. I look over and Ethan is not in bed but rather sitting on the edge of the bed with puffy red eyes and running his fingers through his hair. "Ethan what's wrong?" I ask getting out of bed quickly to go sit by him. I grab his hand rubbing small circles on it. Ethan looks at me before taking both of my hands. "Please don't leave me. I love you." He says kissing my hands over & over. My heart breaks at his words and I quickly pull him into a hug kissing his forehead and letting him cry into mi shoulder. Why on earth do you think I would leave you? I ask making him look at me.
"I feel like you don t love me anymore. You never spend time with me and you never let me hold you when we sleep. And I miss waking up with you in my arms. I can just tell you don't love me anymore. So if your going to break up with me just do it." He rants standing up and pacing around the room. I stand up quickly and walk over to Ethan taking his hands. I give him a soft kiss as tears start to fall from my eyes as well. "Ethan I'm sorry I thought I was doing the right thing giving you space." I say as he looks down playing with my fingers. "Why on earth would you think that? I love you and I love spending time with you."He says taking me to the bed. Now it was my turn to be shy and play with his fingers. "I um kinda over heard you saying to Gray that I was clingy." I say quietly. Ethan pulls me in for a hug and rubs my back. "Oh baby, I'm so sorry I didn't mean that at all. I was just stressed that day. And I should've told you instead of taking it out on you. Can you please forgive me?" He says looking at me in the eyes. " only if you forgive me for ignoring you all week." I smile "of course princess." He says I grab his face and kiss him. We both smile into the kiss and pull away. We spend the rest of the day cuddling and catching up.
Sorry the ending sucked. I had a pretty crappy day today so....yea.~C🌺
