Ethan's POV

After our little moment, it's time to order takeout.

E: "ok, what do you want me to order?"

W: "oh um, you choose I don't mind"

E: "seriously? I insist"

W: "fine, how does pepperoni pizza sound?"

I playfully look at her in disgust.

E: "you like pepperoni?"

W: "duh, don't you?"

E: "nah pineapple's the best"

W: "ewwww that shit's nastyyy"

E: "what are you talking about?"

W: "are we seriously arguing about pizza right now?"

E: "and we'll keep on arguing until you say that pineapple is amazing"

W: "i've never tried it before actually..."

E: "you- you're dead"

I pick her up, place her on the couch and start tickling her.

W: "Eth p-please stahhhp"

E: "do you promise to try a pineapple slice?"

W: "never"

E: "then i'll keep on tickling you"
I carry on until she speaks again.

W: "FINE! ok I'll try it"

E: "good"

unintentionally, I find myself on top of her, with our faces a couple of inches apart: as her laughter quietens down, I slowly lean in and she does too... only for her to whisper in my ear.

W: "order the pizza"

in her most seductive voice. I shoot up and find her giggling.

E: "fuck you"

W: "you love me"

E: "that's true"

W: "right, now get off me you're heavy"
E: "I'm not heavy!"

W: "baby you're 50 pounds, if not more, heavier than me!"

E: "fair enough"
I get off her, grab my phone from the counter and order 1 medium pineapple pizza and 1 half pepperoni and half pineapple, just so that if she likes it she can keep eating it without eating mine.

E: "ok, pizza has been ordered. Do you wanna watch something whilst we wait?"

W: "have you ever seen stranger things?"

E: "i love it!"

W: "really? cuz I never have and I wanna start but I don't know if it's any good"

E: "trust me, it's one of my favourites"

I sit down on the couch next to her, wrapping an arm around her shoulder, only for her to place her head on my shoulder. I turn on the tv and go to netflix, putting on the first episode of the first season and setting down the remote. I see her head lift off my shoulder to look at me in the corner of my eye, but don't turn when I see her looking back at the tv.

W: "Eth?"
now I look down at her and see her slightly uncomfortable.

E: "are you ok princess?"
