I stretched my arms out and yawned as I woke up. I opened my eyes and took in the beauty of my room.

Except my room doesn't have a pair of boxers on the floor... or a football helmet... or a flat screen television.. OR A MAGAZINE WITH GIRLS ON IT.

I FELL ASLEEP AT ETHAN'S HOUSE. 

I jolted up in his bed and scanned Ethan's gigantic room to see where he was, until I spotted him on the floor. He was curled up in a blanket and was laying on his side, looking so peaceful, and not annoying for once. 

His eyes opened slowly and spotted me.

"Good morning, sunshine." Ethan's raspy voice whispered.

I stared at him as he started to wake up. His hair was messy, and he wore no shirt and only a pair of joggers. 

"You're drooling, Madison." He laughed.

I threw a pillow and hit him in the face. "Why didn't you take me home?" 

"Because I didn't want you to leave." He said, nonchalantly. 

It took me by surprise, and I sat for a minute thinking about what was said. Then, I turned to the clock to see that it was 10 in the morning. I turned to Ethan.

"Take me home, Ethan. I need some alone time, and by alone, I mean away from your dirty boxers and "magazines." 

Ethan face grew bright red and he threw a magazine behind his bed. "Well, I hate to break it to you but I don't have my car right now. My mom texted me and said she had to borrow it." He smirked. 

"So, I'm stuck here?" 

"You're stuck here." He looked so amused. "Here, go change. Bathroom is third door on the left." 

Ethan threw a t-shirt and some sweatpants at me. 

"Thanks, I guess." I rolled my eyes and walked passed him as I went to the bathroom. 

"Ok, third door on the left..." I whispered to myself.

"And you are?" 

I whipped my head around to find a tall figure standing above me. He was hot, and had an athletic build, much larger than Ethan's.

"Madison. I'm with Ethan." I responded. 

He smiled. "Wow, Ethan finally got a girlfriend. And a hot one at that?" He questioned. 

"No no no. I'm not his girlfriend."

He raised an eyebrow. "Oh, so you're a one-night-stand? Wouldn't be the first one." 

"NO, I AM NOT A ONE-NIGHT STAND. I am just a friend, nothing more, nothing less." I informed him. 

"I'm just messing around. Ethan's told me a lot about you though." He responded.

Ethan's said stuff about me?

"Not to be rude, but who the hell are you?" 

He laughed. "I'm Ethan's older, hotter, and stronger brother. The name's Mike."
