Over the Bridge d.t. {Completed}

14

Ethan was able to somehow able to get Emma to spend the night. He had gotten Grayson to make dinner and invited her to stay and eat as she was leaving and during dinner the two of them got along well, everything was going good until Grayson brought up that they would be cute together. It caused the two of them to blush since Ethan had not gotten around to asking her out. As the two of them did the dishes, Grayson had left to his room patting his shoulder before leaving. As the two of them washed dishes Ethan worked up the courage to ask her to spend the night since it was getting late.

"Hey Emma," he says clearing his throat. She set the plate she was done drying down and looked over at him waiting for him to continue "since it's late would you want to spend the night?"

Emma smiles and makes a thinking face before speaking "Only if you don't get me sick"

"I don't think I am contagious" He teases a soft smile on his face. He was glad she was going to stay because part of him knew as soon as she walked out the door that all the bad feelings would come back, he really liked being around her and the energy that she gave off.

After getting all the dishes done he leads her to his room, he searches his drawers and finds her his smallest pair of sweatpants and a tee for her to wear. He lays them on the bed for her before he left his room closing the door, he heads to Grayson's room to get his medicine. Since that night everything went down Ethan had went down hill and he blamed himself for everything he tried to overdose in his bathroom. Luckily Grayson has gotten off early and was able to save him, he only has to stay at the hospital for two days and after that Grayson has been watching over him even more.

What the twins didn't know was that Jess just was the reason he was getting sicker, she just needed him close to death so that she could come back. But, Ethan's fate was good at avoiding death.

As Ethan left his brothers room he could see that his door was now open and he walks in and closes the door behind him and she was looking around his room.

"Your room is nice, it really says Ethan" she says looking back at him a small smile on her lips.

Ethan smiles chuckling a little "My brother says that it is too cluttered"

Emma rolls her eyes "I think it's just right,"

There were a few minutes of silence before Emma speaks up again.

"I miss seeing you at the café"

"Why? Has your coffee not being made the way you like it?" he teases and she turns in his direction shrugging a little.

"You know, it's just not the same"

Ethan tilts his head "Why is it not the same?"

Emma grins showing her teeth "Because i don't have a cute barista flirting with me"

"Just a cute barista?" Ethan asks arching one of his eyebrows.

"Oh, did I say cute? I meant a very attractive barista" she says laughing softly.

"I think i know who you are talking about" he says pretending to think as he goes along with the joke they were playing.

"Is that so, Dolan?" she said raising her eyebrows in a amused manner.

"Totally" he says and looks back over at her and the two give each other close lipped smiles before they break out into laughter.

Ethan takes a second to catch his breathe before sitting on the edge of his bed, his energy was low once again. Emma seemed to notice as she quickly catches her breath and goes over to him.

"Would you like to lay in bed and talk? i can tell you're tired"Ethan felt a blush spread on his face, he felt embarrassed that he was tired already. "yeah, sorry being sick isn't my thing"

She laughs softly "I don't think it's anyone's thing"

Then Emma climbs into his bed as he turned his main light off. He walks over to his bed in the dark and feels around and finds the little switch and turns on his lava lamp that was on his nightstand. The whole room was filled with the color yellow and climbs into bed getting under the covers.

"Cuddles?" he asks softly pouting a little, and she gasps and covers her mouth before speaking.

"I don't want your cooties" she says moving only a inch away from him.

Ethan chuckles and pulls her to him "well you've gotten my cooties before tonight"

"When was that?" she challenges lightly, a playful smile on her face.

"You remember when we met? In target? Well we shook hands and you got my cooties then" he says pretending to push glasses up his noise.

She laughs a smile on her face "Okay smarty pants"

He nods tiredly "I am very smart and good at remembering things"

She kisses his cheek softly "You're exhausted, let's gets some sleep. I'll be here in the morning"He pulls her closer to him and relaxes, he runs his fingers through her long hair. Ethan slowly realized me that moment he felt at peace and he knew Emma was someone to keep around.

Even though he felt at peace he could still feel himself slowly falling apart. He just hoped that he could figure a way to get rid of this demon before it was too late. As Ethan slipped into a deep sleep the last thing on his mind was that he hoped no one else had to die by the hand of the demon.
