Party?

It's been a week since I was put in the hospital & everything has fallen into place.

"Are you gonna get up?" Ethan asks me, shaking my body.

"No, just let me sleep forever." I mumble into my pillow.

He slowly lays beside me, puts my hair behind my ear & whispers, "Only if I can sleep forever with you."

I got butterflies, oh my.

"I wouldn't want anyone else to." I tell him.

He smiles then says, "Okay, but we actually have to get up. Me & Gray are planning something."

"What is that exactly?" I ask him while I sit up, tiredly.

"A party." he winks.

"Where? When? Why?" I ask, getting excited.

"Chillllll. I figured at our house. Tonight. & I don't know, just because." He smiles that beautiful smile towards me.

I start jumping on the bed, begging Ethan to join me. After a long 30 seconds of begging, he finally got on my bed & jumped with me.

I giggle & slow down my jumping. I sit down & hold my chest. Ethan kneels down quickly & looks at me worriedly.

"I'm fine, E. Just a little out of breath." I assure him.

He kisses me on the forehead & says, "Good, well not good but it's nothing serious so you're okay."

"I'm okay." I agree with him.

"Okay it's 9 am right now, so I figured we could have the party start around, say, 8? or is that too early?" He explains this to me but I could barely focus on him. I kept getting lost in his big hazel eyes.

"Mak." He snaps in my face.

"Sorry, no that's a good time." I look down in embarassment.

He lifts my chin up & kisses my lips softly. it's so tender & sweet.

"Wanna come over to start setting up?" Ethan asks me.

"Give me 30 minutes. Let me shower & stuff." I tell him, grinning probably too big.

"Okay, sweetheart. Come over when you're ready." He says then walks out.

Gah, I love him.

I run to my closet to pick out some clothes. I end up going with some high-waisted short shorts, paired with a navy blue tank top, adding my navy high top converse with it.

I lay my clothes on my bed then hop in the shower. I do my stuff, then get out.

Wrapping a towel around myself, I turn on music. "Eyes Closed" by Halsey came on (PSA this song is tha BOMB) & I sing along with it.

"But if I keep my eyes closed, he looks just like you." I sing a long to my favorite song while brushing my teeth.

As you can imagine, toothpaste got everywhere & I sounded awful.

Anways, I put my clothes on & quickly brushed out my hair. I plugged in my hair dryer & quickly blow dried it. It's natural straight so I didn't really do anything with it.

"Okay, shoes." I tell myself.

I sit on my bed, putting my shoes on & decide to text Meredith.

'do you know about this party the boys are planning'

'yeah I'm at their house rn'

'ok be there in a sec'

'Coming. ❤' I text Ethan.

I look at myself in the mirror & sigh. I wasn't putting on makeup yet because I knew I'd just sweat it off. I took a deep breath & walked downstairs.

Like always, mom was passed out on the couch.

I decided to ignore it, once again.

I then make my way to my wonderful boyfriends house.
