Ethan's POV
"Ethan.... I-I like you... I know its been only a few days... But uh.." I watch as (y/n) tries to find the words. A smile trickles onto my face, but I stand silently, waiting. She looks up at me and blushes a bright, beautiful red. "Sorry... forget I said anything." My face shifts to a frown as she turns to leave. "(Y/n), wait... I like you too." I say, gripping her shoulder.
Her shoulder crumple to ash, along with the rest of her. She taps my should from behind me. I jump and jerk my gaze to her. She floats and is a light shade of blue. "Then tell me already." She giggles. "I-I..." the words won't come out. "Wake up, Ethan. Wake up... Wake up... Wake-"
"ETHAN WAKE UP!" I jolt up, eyes wide. "(Y/n)!!" I nearly scream. "Nope. It's Mark. You fell asleep at my house after our collab." Mark laughs, sitting back on the couch. "So, were you dreaming of a certain new girl?" He smiles. "Wha- no." I shake my head, standing up. I grab my hoodie and my shoes. "I've got to go home and take a... A shower. Or something." I stutter, walking out of Mark's house and to my car.
"Fucking weird... dream thing." I whisper, trying to wrap my mind around it. Getting in my car, I buckle up and stare at the dashboard. Shaking my head again, I drive to my house and go inside. I turn on the radio and grab something to eat.
"Welcome to the morning station. Our theme today is love songs. So find someone close to you-" "No radio." I interrupt, flicking the switch to turn it off. Finishing the granola bar, i walk upstairs and grab a new set of clothes. 'I can't hide from it forever.' I think, walking into the bathroom. I'm going to tell her. 'TODAY!' "Tomorrow..." I retort, turning on the shower.
Your POV
I wake up in my bedroom floor in front on the fan. "Surprisingly comfortable." I shrug, getting up. I don't have to go to the office today, so I can go waste my time at the mall or something. I put on my panic! At the disco shirt and some worn out jeans. Sliding on my black converse, i slink into the bathroom. My (h/c) hair sticks out at every angle and I frown. "Welp. Look a like we're settling for a messy bun today." I huff, taiming the mess that's attached to my head.
Finally presentable, I walk downstairs to the kitchen. Mom is at the stove, flipping a pancake horribly. I applaud her attempt and giggle. "Good morning oh precious daughter of mine." She smiles. "You need a favor." I grunt, my face shifting to a frown. "How did you know???" She questions, plopping the ugly pancake down on my plate.
"What do you want?" I ask, covering the pastry in a thick layer of syrup. "I need you to buy groceries today." She says, sitting down at the bar with me. "Okay. I can do that." I shrug, finishing the gross substance on my plate. "Here's my credit card and the shopping list. Love you, bye." Mom kisses my forehead and ushers me out the door. "And don't hurry back." I look down at the grocery list to find nothing but a laughing face. "Mom!" I yell. "I know! Go have fun and do something!"
Yep. She's gonna have her friends come over. I roll my eyes and get in my car. Driving into the main part of town, I park at a small café. "Ooohhh... coffee." I smile, hopping out and walking inside the quaint shop. "Hello, miss- oh god. It's you. (Yt/n)!" The girl at the counter squeals. I smile, a little shocked that she recognised me.
"Yep... hi there." I laugh. "So where's your boyfriend?" She continues. "M-my what?" I ask, easing up only slightly. "Ethan? You guys are CLEARLY in love. Where's he at?" She laughs. "H-he's not my boyfriend." I blush out of embarrassment. "Oh, bummer. I ship it... Anyway, what can I get you today?" She says, quickly changing the subject. "Oh... uh. Just a Grande (f/coffee), please." I decide, handing her the money. "Coming right up. On me." She grins. "Ha... thank you."
She makes my drink quickly and I sit at a table by the window. Glancing out, I notice Ethan strolling down the sidewalk. I wave through the window like an idiot and he sees me. He walks inside and sits in the chair in front of me. "Good morning." He greets awkwardly. "Hi-" "OH MY GOD I KNEW IT." The girl from the counter screams. "(S/n) (ship name) is so real!!" She smiles, snapping a picture.
"Let's get out of here." Ethan ushers me out of the chair and to the door. We walk outside and I laugh. "We have officially been shipped." I smile. "Yeah. It has a nice ring to it though." Ethan smiles. He and I are about the same height, so I look directly into his green eyes. "...i- uh... oh look, a park!" I smile, looking over Ethan's shoulder.
Eathan's POV
"(Y/n), wait for me!" I laugh, watching as the beautiful girl sprints toward a swing. "Hurry up then!" She exclaims, beginning to kick her feet back and forth. "Swings were always my favorite thing to play on." She smiles, flying high in the swing. "Come on!" She begs. I laugh and get in the one next to her.
"Let's have a competition to she who can jump farther!" She grins. "What?! You're crazy!!" I yell back, trying to make her stay in the swing. "Come on scaredy crank." She pouts.
"No-"
"oneeeeee...."
"(Y/n)..."
"Twoooooo...."
"No!"
"THREE!"
She flies out of the swing, landing gracefully on both feet and turning back to me. "Come ONNNN!" She yells. Without thinking, I let go. I don't fly gracefully.... I flop into my face, not even two feet from the swing set. "Ethan, are you okay?!" (Y/n) asks, crouching down to meet my gaze. "I'm fine... ow..." I quickly think of something that probably won't work.
"N-no... it hurts so much actually. I think I busted my lip." I fake cry. (Y/n) looks at me with a worried look in her eyes. "...I think you need to kiss it better..." I whisper. Her face shifts automatically and she stares at me with a blank face. "You... jackass." She groans, smiling pathetically.
"I knew it wouldn't have worked." I pout, sitting up. I wipe the dirt off of my pants and shirt, frowning. "That's okay though..." say, standing up with (y/n). "I guess we should head ba-" She cuts me off by planting her lips on mine very quickly. "There. All better. Now shut up, you idiot." She laughs, walking out of the park.
