You Get What You Deserve E.D

Chapter 6

HUNTER

"but you only fail when you stop trying." he looks me in the eye. i just sit there, panting from crying so much. "ethan, i tried too hard! i never succeeded." i admit. i've tried too hard to impress people. everything fell down on me. "i'm too weak to do it." i sigh. "weak, no. the fact that you're still here shows that you survived what was meant to kill you." ethan says with no emotion. he's right. i did survive. if only i waited 1 more day and everything would me okay. "i'm sorry." i blurt. "it's okay." he says. we just hug, to him it meant nothing, but to me it meant everything.

ETHAN

"Hunter, stay here." i say. she nods and i get up and go to her room. i find a suitcase in her cupboard and take it out. i start to pack up her clothes. obviously, i leave her underwear because i don't want to see rude. i'll let her pack those. "Ethan? Why are you taking so long?" she yells from the bathroom. "ONE SEC!" i yell back. Grabbing my phone from my pocket, i call Grayson.
"Yo Ethan! are you okay?"

"yeah, i'm fine. umm can i ask you something?"

"yeah sure."

"how do you feel about hunter moving in with us?"

"i don't mind."

"good! tell mum and dad. We will be over in an hour." i say before hanging up.

HUNTER

ugh, he's taking too long. i go to my room and see ethan there with my black suitcase. "What are you doing?" i ask, confused. "how do you feel about moving in with Me and grayson?" he says smirking. i laugh. when he doesn't laugh back, i know he's serious. "w-wait really?" i ask. "yeah of course!" he yells. i just run up to him and hug him. i don't know why, but i think i can trust him. "Hunter, all you need to do now is pack up your underwear and any more things i forgot." he smiles. i nod then continue to pack up my nearly full suitcase. 1 Hour Later. "You ready to go?" ethan asks me. "ready as ever." i smile. he grabs my bag for me, what a gentleman.

We arrive at his house. i gasp in amazement. Ethan chuckles and gets out of the car. He jogs over to my side opens my door. "Thank you." i simply say to him. he nods then goes to the boot (trunk) of the car and grabs my suitcase. he just carries it to the step without saying anything. i laugh and follow him. we walk into this amazing house and he puts my bag on the floor. "Hello darling." a middle age woman comes up to us and hugs ethan. "hey mum." he smiles. the lady turns to me and smiles. i nervously smile back. "hello dear, im Ethan and grayson mum like you know," she says, enthusiastically "but call me Lisa." "of course. Hello Lisa, I'm Hunter." i smile shaking her hand. "Well. i'm nearly done cooking dinner so you guys make yourself at home. but first, Ethan show her around." Lisa kindly asks ethan. "sure!" ethan smiles taking my bag upstairs.

i follow him up, only to knock into someone. i nearly fall back down the stairs but then a sting hand catches my waist. "omg, i'm so sorry." i laugh. "it's cool, i guess you're moving in now." grayson chuckles. "yeah. well thanks for saving my life." i smile. he nods then walks down the stairs. i laugh to myself and walk up, without knocking into anyone else. i walk into the room with an open door to find ethan setting my bag onto the bed.

"This is my sister, Cameron's room. but she's in college so you will be staying here." he says. i nod then sit onto the bed. he sits next to me. "so, I just realised that we don't really know much about each other." he breaks the silence. "touché. let's say 5 random facts about each other." i suggest. "you first." i say. "okay well, 1. i used to play three different sports; wrestling, football and Lacrosse.
2. I like to make people laugh and smile.
3. I can do a backflip.
4. me and Grayson make funny videos together.
5. i'm allergic to a lot of fruits and veg." he says. i laugh at the last one. "nice." "your turn." he says. "okay,
1. I have no brothers or sisters.
2. I have lived in New Jersey all my life.
3. I can do 17 backhand springs in a row.
4. i can surf.
5. i have only had 1 proper relationship." i begin to trail of at the end. i don't really like talking about that relationship. the boy was plain, evil. "wow, 1 relationship?" ethan gasps. "um, yeah." i force a laugh. "tell me about it." he smiles. "i'd r-rather not.. sorry." i say. "oh that's okay. come one, dinners probably ready." he says grabbing my hand and taking me down stairs. "hello you two, I was just about to call you down." Lisa smiles putting food onto some plates. "this looks amazing, lisa. thank you." i say before taking a seat after Ethan. "you're welcome dear." she says.

We start to eat and Lisa starts asking me about my life. "Well i've lived here most of my life with my ..mum and dad.." i kind of stutter at the end. "oh how lovely, does your Mother have a job?" she asks. "umm." i mess with my fingers before looking at the floor. "is everything okay?" she ask. "m-my mother passed away about a week go." i say. her eyes sadden for me. "oh no, i'm so sorry. i would have never asked if i knew." "it's okay. um she is- was a business woman." i say smiling. "and your dad?" she asks. "he's umm, in j-" "Let's not talk about this!" ethan interrupts. "so how'd you guys meet?" Lisa asks me. "well we met in school. and Grayson met her at the park." ethan says. grayson nods. "nice." lisa says. Ethan sends me a smile and i smile back. we finish up our meals and head upstairs. "what a weird dinner?" ethan laughs. "i know." i laugh too. "weird questions." grayson joins in. "well imma go to my room and watch youtube or somet." grayson says. "okay bye gray." i say, and wave. "bye bro." ethan says before waving at him. "then there were two." i laugh. me and ethan talk for a while and get to know each other more. i don't know why but i have this weird feeling when I'm round him, but i like it. i think i might like him, but i can't. it's not right. "Hunter?" ethan interrupts my thoughts. "um, yeah sorry i was just thinking." i stutter. "well imma go to bed, it's kinda late." he says. "okay night." i say. he smiles before walking out.
i change into this outfit:

before laying into bed. my eyelids become heavy and before i know it, i'm of to sleep.
