"Ethan, it's midnight. Why are we here?" He smiled and glanced over at me.
"I wanted some oranges. Now let's go!" He jumped out of the car and came to open mine. I laughed and followed him towards the store.
"Wow!" I said, pointing to the old yellow Ford convertible.
"Stand by it. I'm gonna take your picture." I smiled and stood in front of it, pulling part of my ponytail over my shoulder. Ethan lowered his phone and licked his lips. I swallowed at his action and went to stand beside him.
"Lemme see," he showed me the picture and I was surprised. I loved it. It was candid and I didn't look like I was dying. I decided to post it.

Ethan grabbed a cart and I got on the front of it, facing him as he raced through the isles.
"Grab the oranges, Emma!" He shouted quickly and I turned around and stuck my hand out to snag them. I tossed them in the cart.
"Anything you want?" He asked me. I thought for a minute.
"Yeah, let's get some ice cream because we both know that James has none." Ethan laughed and pushed us towards the dairy isle.
"What kind?" I scanned through the chocolatey, fruity, and popsicles and spotted something I think I would like.
"Get those rocket looking ones." He opened the door and looked through the flavors of those, pulling out the red white and blue ones.
"Ready?" I asked him. He nodded and we went to check out. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••• When we got back to the apartment, I had red and blue juice stained on my skirt and Ethan had orange peel on his black tee. I saw that Grayson and James were asleep on the couch and a note on the counter read:
Sleep anywhere. Don't wake us up fighting over who gets the bed or I fucking rip your face off. Love, James
"Wow. Okay. Well, I need a shower so I'm gonna go take one. You can have to bed and I can sleep.....somewhere." Ethan's laugh filled the apartment as I walked to my bag and grabbed my clothes.
"No, you take the bed and I can sleep with Gray on the couch." I huffed, knowing that he was gonna stick to his word.
"We can talk about it when I get out." I walked to the bathroom, locking the door behind me, and turned on the water. I ended up taking a lot longer than I wanted to, but only cause I found one of James' unused one hundred dollar razors and decided to shave every hair on my body. I was going to shave anyways because I was having a photo shoot with Bryant tomorrow and we were going to the lake.
"God, took you long enough. I smell like oranges." Ethan said, standing and already starting to strip down-starting with his shirt.
"I thought you liked oranges." I walked into the closet, putting my clothes in on of James' empty hampers.
"I do!" Ethan yelled, shutting the bathroom door and turning on the water. I ran a brush through my hair and tied the string on my shorts. I crawled into the white sheets and just as I was about to turn off the light, Ethan came running up the stairs.
"Hey," he said casually.
"Hi," I laughed. He plopped down on the bed.
"Let me take a picture. Your eyes look really pretty." I smiled and rolled my eyes, handing him my phone.
"Thumb?" He asked.
"466598," he smiled and placed his hand on his heart.
"Aww, you trust me!" I laughed.
"Take it before I leave." He snapped the picture and showed me. I posted it, realizing I posted a lot more while being with Ethan. He makes me more confident.

I commented with "posting a lot lately. congrats." The likes were already rolling in when Ethan turned the light out.
"Goodnight, Em."
