Ethan x Reader

"So there's this new game I found that I think we should play. It's called Dead by Daylight and there's 5 players and ones a uh..." Simon trails off as he glanced away from the lockers where we were all congregated in front of and looked towards the doors. "There's a, um... who's that?" We follow his gaze to see a girl. She has H/C hair that flows as she struts down the hall and striking E/C eyes that sparkled with mischief, as if she knew something we didn't. All in all, she was hot and mysterious. So naturally, JJ had to talk to her.

As she was strutting passed our group, JJ called out to her. "Hey, new girl! What's your name?" We all rolled her eyes and Vik mutters, "Real subtle, Jide." But she just smiled and told him, "Trouble." As JJ continues to try and chat her up, key word being try, I lean against the lockers and stick my hands in my pockets, watching as she puts all her weight on one foot and crosses her arms in amusement. Her eyes shift as she scans over the rest of our group, until our eyes meet, and she grins and briefly looks down a bit. Completely ignoring JJ, she moves to stand in front of me. I blink in surprise. "Er, hi," I say lamely.

"I like your Cobain shirt," she says. I quickly glance down and remember I'm wearing a Kurt Cobain shirt. I look back up, still shocked that out of everyone, she chose to talk to me. "Um, thanks. I like your eyes," I blurt out, blushing in embarrassment as I hear the guys snicker at my response. But she just smiles wider and sticks her hand out for a handshake. "I'm Y/N." "Ethan," I reply as I grip her hand. Just then the bell rings and she let's go. "See you around, Ethan." Then she struts away, and I watch her go.

Suddenly I'm getting claps on the back as I hear little snippets like "Mate, I don't know how you've done it" and "She's so far out of your league" and also "you should lock her down." And then everyone separates as they go to their own classes.

*☆*☆*☆*☆*

"Yeah, see you later, mate," Simon says as he and Josh start to walk home in the opposite direction of me. "Oh yeah, Behz, don't forget about Dead by Daylight tonight. Who knows, maybe you can actually win something for once," Josh jokes. I scowl at him and retort with, "Slip in the shower." He just gives a toothy grins and then jogs to catch up with Simon.

I shake my head and turn around to begin my walk home, only to jump back in surprise as I see Y/N standing right behind me, grinning at me. I let out a breath and smile back at her. "Hey, Y/N. What's up?" I ask, slowly walking past her. She falls into step beside me and I wonder if she plans on stalking me or something, but that thought soon leaves my head as she starts to talk, her voice seemingly flowing out like honey.

"I couldn't help but overhear your conversation with the bearded one. I like your choice of insult, though I, personally, would've used something along the lines of Choke on rice."

I stare at her in wonder, amazed at how utterly bazaar this girl is. "Yes well, it was the first thing that popped into my head, allow it."

She turns her bright eyes towards me, and her facial expression seems to be radiating with amusement and happiness. She then launches into a story about how she almost died when she slipped on a wet floor in the toilets and her last words would've been "Get out of me."

She pauses after a moment. "So, where we goin'?" I give her a look, but she continues to look up at me innocently. "Well I'm going home. We're about halfway there."

"Ooooooh we're halfway there
WhooaOOOAAH livin' on a prayer!"

I couldn't control the incredulous look that spread across my face, but all she did was shrug and say, "I love Bon Jovi," as if that explained everything. And maybe it did, but I wouldn't know, as now we have arrived at my house and we both stop walking, making me wonder how she knows where I live.

"Ya know, Ethan. You're pretty damn cool," she muses. Then she leans up and quickly kisses my cheek, before turning on her heel, walking back the way we came, and I look after her in astonishment. She glances back and does a cute little wave before turning the corner and I'm left to wonder

How did we end up here?
