"Amelia sit down for a second while i get the door." you say, picking her up under her armpits and moving her to the couch.
"okay sissy." she cheekily smiles at you.
you run to the door, since it went off twice.
you slide on your fluffy socks, quickly opening the door to reveal ethan in a grey hoodie, black jeans and a white beanie.
he looks good.
"stressed beautiful?" he raises an eyebrow, making your heart beat fasten.
"um, very. please come in." you breathe, and he chuckles slightly as your cheeks are flushed from rushing around; and his compliment didn't really help either.
"ethan!" Amelia immediately runs up to ethan and jumps in his arms, he stumbles back a little from the harsh impact on his stomach.
"Amelia be gentle." you laugh, watching him pick her up and spin her around in the air.
her cute little laugh echoes around the room, and ethan holds her in his arms. pinching one of her cheeks.
"how have you been?" he smiles with her.
"better now you're here!" she giggles, wrapping her arms around ethan's neck and hugging him tight.
yeah they're cute or whatever.
"what do you want to do?" he asks her, and she taps her finger on her chin dramatically, looking up to the ceiling. pretending to think.
"let's go colour! we can draw with the new pencils i got." she drops down from his arms and runs over to the kitchen island.
ethan looks back at me and motions for you to join, which you do.
you all sit around the table, the plain pieces of paper scattered everywhere, including Amelia's new pencils she got for her birthday.
"Amelia what's your favourite colour?" ethan says, watching how her eyes light up once she picks up the pink pencil.
"um, pink. duh." she rolls her eyes sassily.
and you and ethan just laugh at her.
"she definitely takes over her older sister." ethans eyes widen, looking at you and wiggling his eyebrows.
"shut up." you punch his arm playfully.
"guys stop flirting, im gonna throw up." Amelia pretends to gag.

"look ethan! look at my drawing." Amelia squeals with excitement as she holds her picture in form for ethan's face, a bit too close.
"who are these people?" ethan points to the stick people in her drawing.
"oh, that's you and y/n holding hands. and then me over in the corner throwing up while looking at you. because love is gross." she scrunches her face up.
— ethan's point of view.
i look over to y/n, seeing her hands over her face in embarrassment. her cheeks going a bright pink.
i don't think love is gross.
Amelia leans close to my ear, putting her hand over her mouth and whispering in my ear:
"cause y/n told me she thinks your cute."
my heart immediately flutters at the thought of her calling me cute. but i just admit, y/n is probably the most beautiful girl ive ever seen, ever.
"between us, i think she's cute too." i whisper back.
me and Amelia start laughing, while y/n sits opposite us, smiling while her eyebrows are furrowed.
"me and ethan have a secret." Amelia coos, waving a pencil in her face.
"oh really?" she raises an eyebrow.
"yes really." Amelia crosses her arms.
"but ethan i think you're cute as well." Amelia grabs my built arm, hugging me tightly.
