you were house sitting for your friends while she was in france for the week with her new fiance. she also had a dog that you had to take care of as well, which was fine by you because you loved dogs, especially hers.
her dog, lily, is a beautiful grey husky with piercing blue eyes. she is such a kind and sweet dog. like she's nicer than any person could ever be. she is also the cutest.
you decide to take lily to the local dog park because she deserves some fresh air. when you arrive, you let her off the leash because you know that she'll come back to you when she's ready. you sit on a bench and watch her, contently. out of the corner of your eye, you see a boy around your age, sitting under a tree in the far corner of the park.
you decide to walk over to him, curious as to why he would be reading under a tree in a dog park.
as you get closer, you start to see his appearance clearer. he has thick framed glasses that sit on his nose. he's wearing a maroon t-shirt and denim jeans. he's reading the second harry potter book and seems engrossed in it.
you sit next to him and watch him "hi"
he jumps, not realizing your presence "o-h hi" he says with a nervous stutter
you smile at how adorable he is "sorry to bother you, but i was wondering why you were reading in a dog park"
before he can answer, a dog runs up to him and licks his face excitedly. he laughs quietly and pets the dog "h-hi macy"
he then looks back at you with a giant smile on his face "this is why"
you giggle and pet the dog with him
"do you have a dog of your own?" you ask
"n-no, my brother is allergic. w-what about you?"
"i'm dog sitting for a friend"
he smiles "t-that sounds like an awesome job"
you giggle "it is"
just then, lily walks over to you and lays between ethan and you
"this is lily and i'm y/n"
"h-hi, y/n. h-hi lily" he says petting the dog "i-i'm ethan"
you smile "would you like to get ice cream after i drop lily off at her house"
"t-that would be amazing"
you smile and hook the leash back onto lily's harness
ethan stands up and grabs his book, dusting himself off
"ready?" you ask
he smiles "r-ready"
~
every monday after, ethan and you sat under that tree talking and petting dogs
