I laid in my bed, feeling like nothing but crap. Ethan and I were supposed to hang out today, but I don't feel good and I don't want Ethan to worry about me.

It was like 11 am which isn't that weird for me to wake up at that time. I didn't want to get out of bed, but I was hungry. I got a text from Ethan as I slowly got out of bed. It said, "What time do you want me to come over?"
I didn't want to lie to him, but then again he gets overprotective and worries a lot when I don't feel good.

"Oh, um actually you know what? I uh I have a photo shoot with Olivia today, I completely forgot, I'm sorry E." I typed back as I felt guilt bubble up in my stomach. "Oh, that's okay maybe tomorrow, love you Em."

I'm not a great liar in the first place, so I'm kind of surprised that he bought into to it.

I walked downstairs to get myself breakfast, but only realizing I wasn't that hungry. My stomach hurt and my head ached. I needed medicine, but I needed to eat first. I made myself a small burrito and gave myself some medicine.

Ethan's Pov

Emma wasn't a great liar, but this time I don't think she was actually lying. I still wanted to hangout with her today, though how could she forget that she had a photo shoot with Olivia, her best friend today? I'm starting to get a little suspicious. Emma gave me a key to her apartment when she first moved in. I decided I was going to go over there.

I drove to her apartment, tapping my finger along the steering wheel impatiently. As soon as I got there I used my key to open her door.

Emma Pov

As I was laying down on my couch finishing off the last bit of my burrito, I heard the lock to my apartment click.

'Oh my god, what if it's Ethan? I told him I was having a photo shoot with Olivia today.' I thought to myself. The door opened and I quickly pretended I was sleeping, though it probably didn't look like it though because of my scrunched up face trying to hold back my cough. I heard foot steps walk by me, which scared me even more, because now they could really see my face being all scrunched up.

"Emma?"

'Shit'

It's Ethan, what do I do, I lied to him now I just feel really guilty. I finally let out the cough I was holding back and pretended to just wake up. I slowly peeked up at him, while he sat down carefully on the couch. "Are you okay Em? You look pretty pale." He said, wiping my sweaty hair out of my face. "No, I feel like shit and, my head hurts and my stomach, and I didn't wanna bother you or have to make you worry about taking care of me, that's why I lied to you. I'm sorry." I rambled out quickly.

"Em, you could have just told me you were sick, I would have come over to take care of you, I love doing that. I love your little snuggles too. I would have come over in less time than you can blank just to take care of my baby girl. I love you Em, promise not to lie again?" Ethan said. "I promise."

Ethan pulled her into his lap, then started combing her hair with his fingers while they watched shitty tv who for the rest of the night.
