FIRST PERSON

i was at james' house with grayson, emma, ethan, and bryant. he invited us over to watch christmas movies and make gingerbread houses.

"okay, whoever finishes their house first without breaking anything gets to pick which movie we're gonna watch first." james said, glancing at each of us surrounding his kitchen table.

i was standing next to ethan, getting ready to mess him up. if he wins, then he would put on my least favorite movie just to annoy me.

"three..." james started counting.

"you're so dead" ethan mumbled, nudging my shoulder.

"two..."

"we'll see about that." i whispered, biting my lip flirtatiously.

"one..."

"bet."

"go!" james yelled out and all of us started rushing like crazy.

about five minutes in, half of grayson's roof broke and one of bryants' walls fell on the floor, breaking into little pieces.

"shit!" bryant yelled out, his hands full of icing. we all laughed.

i glanced over at ethan, he was a few steps ahead of me. i bumped into him by "accident" and made him fumble with the chimney.

"don't even try, y/n. i'm like a ninja." ethan said cockily.

i was almost beating him he was only one step ahead. with one hand i put the last candy on and with my other hand i smeared icing on ethan's face, making him pause and turn to face me.

"done!" i threw my arms up and emma and james groaned.

i turned back to ethan and he looked mad.

"so much for your ninja skills, e." i giggled, pointing to the glob of icing on his cheek.

a smirk plastered across his face and he started chasing me. before i could run through the doorway, ethan ran in front to stop me. he hugged me tight, making me squeal in his arms.

"ethan! let go!" i laughed. he took some icing from his cheek and smeared it across my nose, making me laugh even harder.

"oh my gosh. guys..." james said, making us look over at him. he pointed above our heads. ethan and i looked up, seeing a mistletoe hanging from the ceiling. we looked back at each other and giggled.

everyone started chanting "kiss! kiss! kiss!" and my face turned red. he leaned in slowly. my lips met with his for about two seconds, then we both pulled away, blushing like crazy. his arms were still wrapped around me from earlier, but this time our faces were closer.

we just stared into each other's eyes for a few seconds, and then ethan's glance dropped down to my lips.

"can we try that again?" he whispered, making me smile.

"yeah..." i whispered back, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"okay." he grinned and moved his hands to my hips. he pulled me into his body gently, kissing me passionately. i felt his lips curl into a smile, making me smile back and giggle.

i heard everyone freaking out, with several "i'm gonna cry"s from james.

our lips pulled apart and ethan took one of my hands in his. he intertwined our fingers and i kissed his knuckles softly.

"wanna go out with me?" the tops of his ears turned pink and the worried expression on his face washed away as i nodded my head as a response.

i looked up at the mistletoe and grinned.

"suddenly i really like mistletoes." i said.
