Day 27 Saturday

I woke up, processing where I was and why I was there. I rolled over and Ethan was sleeping next to me. I was alarmed, I thought he was on the couch. What do I do? I stayed there, watching him sleep. After a little while he began to stir. When he opened his eyes he smiled.

"Good morning," he said, "you seemed shocked. Yet, you haven't moved." He sat up a bit. What do I say? That I was watching him sleep. That I kinda liked the surprise. I didn't know what to do. He just smiled bigger and got up. "Come on lets go find some breakfast." I got up and went into the bathroom. I looked into the mirror. I looked well rested and I think I was also blushing. I wouldn't doubt that. I was happier than I have been in a month. It's so unusual. I liked it.

I went down into the kitchen where Ethan was making toast. I grabbed the peanut butter and my two slices of toast. He looked at me weird as he spread butter on his toast.

"What? Do you think it's weird that I like peanut butter instead of regular butter on my toast?" I asked. He just shook his head and smiled. I haven't seen him this happy in a while either. While we were eating I checked my phone. No new notifications. Dad must've decided not to tell me. Fine. Then I won't be coming home anytime soon. Which at this moment I really didn't mind.

We spent the whole day on the couch playing some old video games. We made silly jokes about the characters and just lots of random things. We barely left the couch. It was nice, being here with him...What am I saying?... Am I confessing to liking him? Do I? I don't know...What if I did? Could he be able to tell? Ugh so many question... so little answers...

Later that night we started getting ready for sleep. I got out my blankets and made my makeshift bed on the couch. Ethan stood up and started heading for his room. He stood beside the doorway as if he was going to say something but didn't.
