A Week Later
Ethan comes tomorrow, i'm really excited but i don't want him to see me in this state of devastation. i'm scared of him asking whats wrong. ill just try my best to not show it.
my phone dings
Ethan:)
Hey, I'm at the airport now.
i grab my car keys and run to the car.
Okay. i'm about to leave now. see you in a bit.
I get to the airport and see Ethan waiting on the crosswalk. his pastel blue hoodie was very complimenting on him.
i open the car door and walk up to him.
"Hey Ethan, Ready to go?"
"Yeah"
put your hand out for him.
what? no!
do. it.
fine.
i put my hand out for Ethan to stand up. he looks at me with slight happiness. his eyes are a dark shade of blue, almost green.
pretty, i thought.
He gets in the passenger seat and i take him to my place. Tyler and Kathryn were setting up Ethans room for him to stay in while he got settled into LA.
We get there and i look at him. he looks so excited to be here. I was excited too. Maybe.. overexcited. I can't wait for all the projects were gonna make, all of the things i have planned for the future.
He gets out of the car, followed by me.
i go up the door and open it for him. he gives me a quick smile. not like anything thats in his videos. a real, genuine smile. i felt pressure in my stomach as i walked in.
"Your rooms right in here"
I lead him to his room. he flops on the bed and it makes a creaky noise. he looks at me all goofy like. i cant help but laugh back at it. it was pretty funny. Too funny. Im busting a gut at this. he looks at me laughing back. were both having a laugh attack. i get a quick glance at him. His dumb, wide smile covers his whole face, eyes squinted.
I stop laughing and started staring. he looks at me, snapping his fingers in my face.
"Earth to Mark"
"Oh, hey. i'm sorry. i got the stares."
"thats okay. Im gonna unpack and ill be out for dinner and stuff. see you in a bit, Mark"
my name. suddenly i crave him saying my name again.
why though. Its just your name.
