Antonia's POV
I rub my eyes, and I'm immediately blinded by the sun. I glance over to my right and see Ethan still sleeping. I take this moment to secretly admire his features. His face is so beautifully sculpted. His eyebrows are thick and dark. I love his cute button nose. He's shifts lightly and bunches up his face.
"Good morning sleepy head" I welcome him back from his sleep.
"I'm still tired" he whines.
"I smell someone making breakfast, and I'm hungry" I shake him lightly.
"It must be Grayson. He always tries to cook something new everyday" he opens his eyes.
Ethan stands up, and I roll on his side of the bed. I hold my arms out to indicate for him to help me up. He laughs while hauling me out of bed.
We walk down the stairs and go straight to the kitchen. Grayson is wearing a black shirt with black sweatpants.
"Hey guys" Grayson smiles.
"Breakfast is ready! I have banana pancakes and chocolate chip pancakes" he motions towards two plates of pancakes.
"Don't eat the banana pancakes" Ethan warns me as he grabs two chocolate chip pancakes.
I trust Ethan's warning and grab two chocolate chip pancakes for myself as well.
Mr. and Mrs. Dolan walk in the kitchen dressed for work.
"Ohh, I didn't know you were over, Antonia" Mrs. Dolan smiles while pouring coffee in a thermostat.
"She spent the night since her parents are at the hospital still, and the twins were at a sleep over" Ethan informs her.
"I see. Well, you are always welcomed to stay here, Antonia" Mrs. Dolan tastes her coffee before putting the lid on the thermostat.
"Thank you Mrs. Dolan" I smile.
"Ohh goodness. It's Lisa and Sean. Not Mr. and Mrs. Dolan. I feel as if we have a better level of connection now" she turns to give me a hug.
"Look at you both matching" She smirks ever so slightly before telling Mr. Dolan that it's time for them to leave.

"I should get going. I have to pick up the twins from their sleepover soon" I inform Ethan who is laying on the opposite couch.
"I'll come with" he invites himself.
"Aren't you tired of me yet" I ask him.
"Never. I enjoy your company even if we are just sitting in silence in a room" he gleams.
I feel my cheeks flush.
He is just too sweet.

Ethan drives us to the house where the twins are at. Ethan stays in the car while I walk up to the front porch to get the twins. I knock on it twice when Mrs. Love opens the door looking exhausted.
