Ethan's pov
I winced in pain as I sat up from bed.
What the hell happened last night.
"Ethan are you alright?" Harry's soft voice came from the corner as I groaned.
"What happened?" I questioned, and a laugh slipped past his lips.
"You fell up the stairs. You didn't want to take the lift after we came back from the pub and fell down a set of stairs." He chuckled as he explained what happened to me.
"Bloody hell." I grumbled, standing up and going over to my computer. I checked skype, seeing a message from both vik and Simon.
Stiimpy7: golf or gta?

Vikstar123:gonna join the chat at 1?

I looked at the time, seeing it was 12:30. I wrote him back a yes, getting a water front the mini fridge next to me.
"I'm going to film with the guys, thank you for checking with me." I thanked harry, and he nodded, leaving my room and going back to I'm guessing his flat.
I brushed my hair before joining the discord that was already up and running.
"Woke up late mate?" Vik giggled as I connected, setting up my facecam.
"Yeah, went clubbing with harry." I explained, watching simons face go sour as I spoke. I gulped down my water, leaning back and waiting For the  guys to choose a game.
"I vote gta, I have a sick playlist." Josh exclaimed cheerfully, and I agreed with him.
"GTA sounds lit ." I spoke, and we all agreed to play gta first and then a session or two of golf after.

"PLAYLIST: upload tickets live now." Simon giggled as he read the name, and I held up my fingers.
"Plug plug plug." Everyone's laughs filled my headphones as we waited for the race to load in.
"Got the boost boys." We exclaimed, and I shot forward ahead of them all.
"OI get this fuckin speng." Simon whined as he bumped into the back off me, causing him to suddenly spin out.
"Ethan's a fucking snake." Josh spoke, accentuating the fucking.
"Dickhead." I sang out as I cruised into first.
The game went on, multiple names being thrown around. My throat hurt droning yelling, my headache pulsating as we finished the game.

"God you were such a pussy." Simon sneered as I started to let the video render. I had no idea what he was talking about, but he continued on to insult me as if it was a game.
"Can you fuck off? I've got an absolute peak headache and your bitching isn't helping." I quipped, making him go quiet.
"Everyone's going to LA for the 5 year anniversary." Simon whispered after a while of silence. I just sat there, trying to ignore the steady breathing that came from the speaker next to me. My chest was on fire as I replayed everything he had said to me today. Simon was staring at me, his head titled to the side.
"Do you think I mean these things I say?" He asked quietly, sincerity flooding his question. I couldn't help the laugh that slipped past my lips, and I seen him so paler than he already is.
"You only do it when josh is around. Makes it seem like you are trying to impress him which is fucking insane because I didn't get the memo that that is how you are supposed to treat your boyfriend. " The words spilled out like vomit, making me feel sick to my stomach as I finished. Simon gasped, choking on the air he breathed in.
"God forbid I make banter." He mumbled childishly.
"Yeah well you know me. Ethan Payne, most pussy sidemen of them all." I quoted what he had once said, pursing my lips as I tried to fight the tears. My headache felt as if it was going to split my brain, and I had to get out of the hot lights and arguments.
"I'm going to leave you to ponder that. Tell me when they decide on a day to go to LA alright?" My voice was softer than it was only mere seconds ago, and I could tell that it had taken a load off of simons shoulders.
"Okay." He whispered, and just as I was about to mute the chat, I heard him say one last thing.

"I don't mean what I say Ethan. I love you."

We are so close to the climax. I'm actually really scared to start writing that chapter because Ethan is a personal favourite and to have to write a really deep chapter about this and depression is kind of sad.
