We both emerged from our respective rooms at about the same time, our eyes flicking over each other with a shy smile, almost as if we were judging the other ones pajamas.
I awkwardly cleared my throat after getting caught looking at Ethan's big biceps. "There's movies in the living room and some more in my room." I said walking past him and back towards the kitchen. "Popcorn?" I called back to him.
"Yes, please!" He called from the living room. He stood in front of the book case that held the movies as I made the popcorn, carefully looking at the titles, wanting to pick the perfect one.
I came back I to the living room with the bowl of popcorn in my hands just as Ethan chose a movie and turned to look at me.
"Is this good?" He asked, turning the dvd to show me the front.
I nodded in agreement. "Yeah, that's fine. It's a long movie though, and my bed is definitely comfier than the couch..." I trailed off with raised brows, posing the statement as a question to let him decide.
"Well the bed it is then." He answered with a sweet smile. He led us back into my room as I took the bowl of popcorn out of his hands and climbed into my bed as he inserted the movie. He turned back around just as I was getting comfortable, watching him with an amused look on my face.
I patted the space next to me on the bed, scooting over a bit. "Come sit." I said as Ethan grabbed the remote to the tv and rounded the bed. He climbed in next to me and I immediately scooted closer to him, his arms opening to hold me. We held the popcorn between us as the opening theme of "The Greatest Showman" began to play.
Before we knew it a few hours had passed and the movie was over. I looked up at Ethan to see tears running down his face. "You okay?" I asked with a slight laugh, handing him a tissue from the nightstand.
"No! Did you see how dedicated to his family he was?" He whined as he took the offered tissue.
I just laughed at him and grabbed the empty popcorn bowl as I headed to the kitchen to put everything away. I could hear him come sniffling behind me and wrap his arms around my middle, resting his head on my shoulder. My head leaned to the side to rest against his and rested my arms on top of his.
Ethan's head moved up just enough to press his lips against my jaw. "I love you." He murmured against my skin, his arms tightening around me slightly.
"I love you too." I said quietly, pulling away just enough to turn my head completely towards him and press my lips gently against his own. I pulled away a few moments later, taking his hand in my own and started leading him back the way we came. "Come on, let's go to bed." I said, waiting for him come beside me before walking back to my bedroom.
We climbed into bed, one of us on each side, immediately going into the others arms. My head rested on Ethan's chest, over his heart, listening to it beating as our breathing evened out, falling into the most restful sleep either of us have had in the past week.
