Disappointed// Ethan Dolan Fanfic

Chapter 13

It was now 6 and we were waiting for the boys to come pick us up. We decided that they should pick us up an hour early, so we would have time to get our tickets, get popcorn, and get good seats.

We were all sitting in my living room when my phone lit up.

E-tee-wee-tee: we are hereeee

Me: ok coming:)

I tell the girls and then we run outside and get in the car. We had to take two cars to fit everyone, so it was Grayson, Ethan, Vanessa, and I in one car and Cameron, Aaron, Katie, and Taylor in the other.

"Hey guys!" I say as I enter the backseat of their black truck. Grayson was driving while Ethan was in the passenger seat. The music was blasting and all the windows were down including the back one. They were playing "Dirty Laundry" by blackbear.

"Hey!" They both yell over the music.

Grayson pulls out of my driveway and speeds off to the movies with Cameron's car not far behind.

It took about 15 minutes to get to the theater and the time in the car was a lot of fun. The twins were just blasting music and we were all singing and rapping at the top of our lungs just having a blast. By the time we pulled up to the theaters, we were all dying of laughter and there were tears streaming down my face. The best part is when "Lose yourself" by Eminem came on and we all knew every word. The twins were halirous when they rapped. Laughing, we all got out of the car to go into the theaters to meet with the others.

We were all in line for tickets when I was looking through my bag for my wallet and realized I forgot my phone in the car.

"Hey, Grayson?" He was a little in front of me talking to Katie.

"Yah?" He said turning around.

"I left my phone in the car so can I have the keys to go get it?" By this point, Ethan and Vanessa had made there way back from the popcorn window, carrying 4 large popcorns.

"I'll come." Ethan says while handing the two popcorn buckets to Aaron to hold. Vanessa gives me a look which I purposefully ignored.

"Oh, yah. Hold on." Grayson puts his hand in his pocket fishing for his keys.

"No, it's alright. I can go by myself," Not wanting to pull him from the group, even though I would love some alone time with him even if it was for like 5 minutes...

"No, it's cool. I'll come." He nodded his head and grabbed the keys from Grayson's hand.

"Just save us some seats. We will be back soon." He said to no one in particular.

We reach the door and he holds it open for me.

"Thank you." I said. He went through the door after me and walked a couple steps then stopped dead in his tracks. I turned to see what was wrong, and he had the most serious look on his face. Then when we made eye contact, he broke out into the goofiest smile I have ever seen.

"Race ya."

He tore off sprinting before I could even say a word. I didn't even stop to think how it might not be the smartest idea since it was dark outside and we were in a parking lot, I just sprinted right after him.

I was wearing sneakers and some denim shorts, so I didn't have any trouble running. I have always loved to run. Running was something I did when I needed to clear my head, so I have gotten pretty good at it.

Ethan was a couple feet in front of me so I ran harder. Ethan was a fast runner which I had already assumed since he played so many sports. But I caught up to him, pushing a little harder to finally surpass him.

Ethan made a noise, but I kept on sprinting like my life depended on it. I got to the car and smacked the car door with my hand, seconds before Ethan did.

"Wow," he said putting his hands on his knees, trying to catch his breath, "You're really fast."

"Thanks," I said laughing completely out of breath.

"Did you run track or something back at L.A.?" he asked looking amused. Okay, so maybe I was trying to impress him a little, but I really do just like to run. I haven't done it for an official sport or anything.

"Nah, just love to run." I say.

"Ah," he says while unlocking the car. He opens the backseat door and gets in.

"Whatcha doing in there?" I laugh curiously.

"Get in!" He popped his head out of the door and offered a smile. I roll my eyes and jump in.

I get in and he is just sitting sideways on the seat right next to me.

"Hellow," He says with a kids voice and an adorable smile.

"What?" I giggle.

"Nothing," He laughs,  "I needed to sit down. Can we just sit here for a couple minutes?"

"Yah sure, " I say turning around to shut the door, " I am a little tired too."

"Are you excited for the movie?" I ask.

"It's definitely no spiderman, but yes I am excited."

"Yah sorry about that but there was no way that my mom was going to let me go to that midnight premiere." I felt kind of bad that we crashed their spider man plans, but it was a school night so it would not have worked out.

"I'm just teasing. I'm glad you came!" Ethan was so sweet and it seemed like he was genuinely glad that I was there.

"I'm glad you invited me!"

"Just between you and me, you are one of my favorites," he whispers glancing around the car pretending to look for people. He gets more serious as he goes on.

"I know we've only known each other for a short amount of time, but there is just something about you. You are different. In a good way."

I blushed uncontrollably hoping he couldn't see in the dark car.

"It has been so nice coming here and feeling so welcomed by you guys. You all are so different then the people at my high school back home. They all acted so entitled and stuck up, and you guys are so down to earth and just great people," I say leaning my head against the car seats, "And you are different too. In a good way." I say mocking Ethan.

"Hey now, I was trying to be nice, you ruined it." He said teasing.

"Alright, we should probably get back."

"Yah, lets go. Make sure you grab your phone this time." Ethan said sarcastically.

"Haha, funny," I say rolling my eyes while I grabbed my phone and put it in my purse.

And with that we walked back towards the movie theater.
