Crazy about you... & you too

three.

after watching gray sleep for a little , i got up and decided to get some food. my stomach had been growling for a good hour or so , or at least it seemed like it.
i untangled myself from grays arms and slowly climbed out of bed without him waking up. i grabbed my phone from the dresser, looking at the time.. 9:22 AM
i made my way out of the room and downstairs to the kitchen , stopping at the bathroom on the way down.

i knew my way around their house like the back of my hand, & to my surprise everything happened to be in the same spot its always been in. i decided to go into the kitchen and get myself some cereal. when we used to have our sleepovers, i was always the first one awake and the first to go to sleep. i would get myself a bowl of lucky charms, just so i could eat the marshmallows bc its the best part. i sat at the table eating my cereal and scrolled down my social media's. i got on insta and saw that ethan was active 2 mins ago.. i was hoping he was still awake bc he never got the chance to give me his answer.
just as i was about to text him, i got a message from him

*1 new message*

Ethan: "you up?"

i waited a while to reply, bc i hadn't decided if i was up or not ..
i replied & then tried to quietly wash my bowl without waking anyone else up .
he texted me again telling me to come to his room.
i finished cleaning up my mess & made my way to ethan's room.. i didn't bother to knock when i got to the door , i just opened it.. but i immediately regretted it.

i opened the door to find ethan butt ass naked. i was shook.. not bc he was naked but bc he didn't care that i saw him naked .. he kinda just looked at me and continued to put on some shorts. i quickly closed the door, realizing that the door was wide open and i hadn't even stepped foot into the room .. once he was covered, i sat on the foot of his bed and he sat at the top and just looked at me

" good morning princess."

" morning .. what are you doing up so early? & why were you naked ? " i questioned.

he looked at me with a confused face, " whats with the questions ? what are you? the police ? "

i giggled. " you're never awake this early. i didn't think you were capable of waking up before 1 in the afternoon "

he laughed " yeah.. i'm not actually, i was having trouble sleeping .. but i knew you were awake .. i sleep naked btw "

i nodded my head. " makes sense ....but you wanted to talk? "

" yeah.. gray interrupted me before i could give you my answer yesterday..& hopefully you enjoyed the show " he joked.

i playfully punched him in his arm & tried my best not to make too much eye contact with him but i could feel his eyes burning into my soul .. idk why but part of me lowkey wanted him to say he chose me

" well, let's not waste time .. what was your answer ?"

" i cant tell you yet..." he said with a big smile across his face.

" ethan, what the hell..just tell me your answer, idk why you wanna play games & shit. "

he rolled his eyes at me
" just shut up for a second. i need to confess something first"

i looked at him with a confused face , mainly bc i was trying to figure out who he was talking to but i let it slide bc ethan has always been the spicy one " well ? what are you waiting for ? "

" you probably don't wanna hear this but i had trouble sleeping cus i had a dream about you .. but not just any dream ... " he trailed off , hoping i would catch his drift
