Your POV

Once we arrive at Alice's house I run upstairs and grab my bag.

"Hey, be safe and use protection yeah." Says Alice

"Stop, I'm seventeen." I say rolling my eyes, we aren't even dating I don't understand.

"Don't be silly, wrap that willy." Riley giggles.

"Guys, stop, I'm not even dating, we never will, there's no interest between us, seriously." I say grabbing my back and swatting Riley's arm.

"Eh, sorry, but for future reference, remember that." He says winking, and with that, I leave Alice's house.

"Why you so red?" Asks Ethan. Oh great now I'm red too.

"Oh, just Alice and Ry saying things that make me uncomfortable."

"Fair enough, so wanna head back to my place, it's like a thirty minute walk."

"We can just go to mine, I'll get my car, and I'll get my money, I live there." I say, pointing to my house.

"Oh, okay, but you don't need money." He says, I sigh because I will pay him back.

When we get to my house I open the door trying to be quiet to grab my wallet.

"Oh you're home? I wasn't expecting you to be back thi-"

"No, I'm, uh, just grabbing my money then going to a friends house." I throw Ethan the keys, and he gets in the car without my mom knowing.

"Okay, who is this friend? Is it Alice? Is it Phoebe? Or is it a boy?"

"It's my partner for music this week, have to go, bye." I say rushing to get the door closed and I run to the car.

"Well, sorry about that, if she'd noticed you would have been interrogated." I say putting the keys in the ignition.

"Like a criminal?" Ethan asks, grabbing the aux cord, I roll my eyes.

"Yes, like a criminal, and the driver controlsd the music thank you." I say grabbing the wire off him.

"Oh c'mon, I was just gonna put (F/S) on, and some more of their music."

"Well, that's fine then, considering they're my favorite."

As we drive to Ethan's and sing along to the music I smile, first time I have drove my own car in so long, I'm surprised my mom even let me keep it.

"Here!" He exclaims, pointing to a fairly large looking house.

"This one?" I ask, just to make sure before parking outside.

"Yep, oh, and I hope you don't mind dogs."

"I love dogs!" I park the car and take the keys out of the ignition then get out.

"C'mon, what's taking you so long?"

Ethan eventually gets out and I lock the car.

"Okay, so, once we are in, follow me and run."

"Why?"

"I have a strange family, they will want to know everything about you." We get inside and he grabs my hand and pulls me upstairs, I follow him, not that I have much choice.

"Ethan, be careful." Says an older guy, he looks around Felix's age.

"Sorry dude."

"Wait, who is this?" He says, motioning to me.

"Oh, my partner in music." Ethan says, still having a hold of my hand.

"I'm telling mom you brought your girlfriend over."

"Dude, she isn't my girlfriend." He says, dropping my arm.

"Yeah, sure." And with that, the older boy walks downstairs.

"Who was that?" I ask.

"My older brother." Ethan says, taking me into a room, clearly his.

"You like the color blue then?" I ask, this bedroom is pretty cool I must admit.

"Yeah I guess so, I mean, pretty much everything is blue."

"It's cool, blue is one of my favorite colors."

"What is your favorite."

"Blue or pastel purple."

"Cool, wanna practice then?"

"Yeah sure, I don't really know how we're going to do this." Well done me, I had an idea but that was it.

"Well, that's okay. At least we know what song we're doing." He says smiling and picking up an electric guitar, I sit on the end of his double bed.

"Woah." I could only but dream about having a guitar that amazing.

"What?" He says, tilting his head in confusion.

"That guitar, it's so cool, and, hella expensive."

"Yeah, I guess." He says smiling, he starts playing the simple tune of Seven Nation Army. "Just start singing whenever you're ready."

I cringe, I've never really sang in front of one person before, and for some reason it is so much scarier than a room full of people. I wait for my cue to join in and tap my foot the beat.

"Been there, done that, messed around
I'm having fun; don't put me down
I'll never let you sweep me off my feet"

He smiles, and we do the rest of the song, me singing bulletproof, Ethan playing the guitar.

"That was really good, your voice is phenomenal."

I laugh. "Thanks, but my voice really isn't, but anyway, now we need to insert the Seven Nation Army lyrics in too."

"Yeah, I guess so." He says, before breaking out into immense guitar solo.

I sit and stare in awe of his skills. Once he finishes, I can only say one thing.

"Show off." All he does is wink at me and I smile, feeling a small blush creep onto my face. He sets his guitar down and sits next to me.

"So, what do you want to do next?"

"Go get food, I am starving." I say giggling, although, I truly am starving, I need food.

"Me too actually, then wanna come back here and play games?"

"Sounds good." And, at that moment I realized, I had my head on Ethan's shoulder, my hand on his leg and his arm was around my waist. I move away quickly. "Sorry, I didn't realize."

"No, it's okay." He says, with an obvious blush, meaning I'll probably have one too.

"So, to the mall then?"

"Yeah, you look quite cute when you blush." He says, making me blush more. I pick up my bag and put it on my shoulder and follow Ethan out of his house.

(AN~ Oooooo, y'all are doing coupley things without realizing, how cuuute)
