Y/N's POV

I wake up, sunshine beaming into my eyes through a crack in the curtains. I feel a loose arm around my waist and my back against a warm being. I turn my head ever so slightly and see a sleeping Ethan. I turn my body completely, so I can face him, and just admire his features.

His lips were slightly parted, his breaths steady and slow, his hair sticking up in a million directions. I couldn't help but smile at how peaceful he looked. I laid my hand gently on his cheek, and stroked it with my thumb. The stubble on his face tickling my thumb as it moved over them. I leaned in and kissed his forehead and then slowly slipped out of his arms without waking him up. I tiptoed out of the room and headed to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Once I made it to the kitchen, I just popped some waffles into the toaster and made some bacon and scrambled eggs. A couple minutes after I made breakfast, I heard my bedroom door open and close. I peered down the hall and saw a groggy, shirtless Ethan walking down, rubbing his eyes.

"Good morning, sleepy." I say to him with a smile as I make him a plate of food.

"Good morning, lovely." He said, walking over to me and wrapping his arms around me from behind.

He laid his head in the crease of my neck, kissing it, and then pulling away from my body. I then handed him the plate of food and slightly giggled, given the fact that I made almost an entire box of Eggo waffles.

"You're so cute." He said, looking down at the plate.

I just smiled, blushing mainly, while making myself a plate of food.

I joined him at the table, sitting right next to him. The second I sat down, Ethan placed his hand on my thigh. I let out a slight giggle and gave him a little smile.

The apartment laid in a comfortable silence as we just enjoyed breakfast and mainly each other's presence, but that silence didn't last long. We heard a key enter the lock, then the door quickly opened.

Emily ran threw the door, quickly slamming it once she was in. She looked as if she were in a panic, her eyes were wide, her breathing was quick, and her hair, wild as an be.

"Em?" I said, my voice stinging with distress.

She just stood there, her eyes now beginning to fill with tears. She then ran down the hall to her room, the sound of sobs now invading every room in the house.

"I'll clean everything up, you go check on her." Ethan said, fear now stinging his voice and panic filling his eyes.

I nodded my head and walked down to Emily's room.

"Em?" I said, gently knocking the door.

Only faint, muffled cries came as a response.

I didn't hesitate past that, I opened the door, and found Emily rolled up in her sheets, sobbing.

"Em? Please talk to me." I begged, sadness now overcoming the fear.

"He's gonna leave me!" She yelled into her pillow, muffling the words, making it hard to understand.

"What do you mean?" I said, tears now brimming my eyes.

Her face turned to mine, her face redder than ever, drenched in her tears, and her eyes, puffier than ever. "Grayson and I... Well ya know, did that, and when I woke up I realized I'd just met him, and I started overthinking, and now I think he's just using me and then he's gonna leave me!" She said in between sobs, tears still streaming down her face, bringing her once beautifully done mascara down with it.

"Emily. Look at me." I said, now knowing what I was dealing with.

"Hm." She said, her sparking, hurt, blue eyes staring into mine.

"First of all, you sounded like me with the whole overthinking thing." We both chuckled. "Second of all, I know we just met these boys, but I know that you feel the same way I do about them. You and I both know they're completely different than any other boys we've dated. Grayson likes you so much, he would never do anything to hurt you. C'mon, Em." I said, the words spilling out of me.

"I guess you're right, Y/N/N." She sighed, dry sobs still occurring. "Thank you." She said, enveloping me into her arms.

"Of course. Now, freshen up, I think we need a girls day and night out!" I cheered, causing her to perk up.

"Yes, yes, yes!" She exclaimed, drying her eyes.

"I'll go grab you some breakfast, you calm down a bit more, and come out whenever you're ready." I smiled at her.

"I love you, Y/N/N." She smiled at me as I made my way to the door.

"I love you too, Em!" I smiled back, closing her door as I left

I made my way down the hall, a smile pasted to my grin, and my heart just a bit lighter. I was so happy that I made Emily feel better so easily! As I reached he end of the hall, I saw a frazzled Ethan and Grayson.

"What's up?" A frown now creeped onto my face.

"Emily and Grayson did something!" Ethan said, panic exploding in his voice.

"Yes, I know, I know." I said in a calm voice as to not panic the boys more.

"Have you seen Emily?" Grayson said, fear more than anything stinging his voice.

"Yeah, she's in her room." I said.

"Can I go in?" He asked.

"Not quite, she's... busy." I tried to hide her panic attack.

"Oh okay." He said, sadness infecting him.

"She'll be out soon though." I said, trying to make him feel better.

He nodded.

"C'mon guys, cheer up! Everything's okay." I smiled.

Ethan walked over, placing his arms on my waist, and I placing my arms on his shoulders.

"Love you." He said, leaning down to peck my lips a couple of times.

"And I love you." I smiled up and him, pecking his lips once more.

"Gray, I'll go check on Em. Can you make her a plate for breakfast?" I said.

"Yeah, of course." He said, worry and sadness still hanging around him.

"Hey, come here." I said.

He walked over to me, not once raising his eyes from the ground.

"It's gonna be okay, Emily's a strong little nugget." I said, giving him a hug.

"Thank you, Y/N." He said, hugging me back.

I let go, and made my way down the hall, to a hopefully better Emily. I knocked gently, happy to not be hearing sobs.

"Who is it?" I hear Em call.

"Your favorite bean pal." I said, smiling lightly.

"Come in!" She said, sounding cheery.

"Hola! Someone's looking better." I smiled, at a now nicely dressed Emily.

"Well, I peaked my head out and saw Gray, so I wanted to look nice." She smiled.

"Yeah, he's really worried about you right now." I said, a small worried look creeping to my face.

"Oh." She said, instantly frowning. "I-I-I don't know what to say. Can I go out and see him?" She asked, as if I were her parent.

"Don't ask me, I ain't your mom." I joked.

She laughed. "Okay, let me put my makeup on, and I'll be out." She smiled.

"Sounds good." I chuckled, and made my way back to the boys.

"Hey. So how is she?" Gray said, now more perked up.

"She's putting her makeup on, and then she'll be out." I said smiling.

"Okay, thank you." He smiled down to me.

"Mhm." I smiled back to him.

"Y/N/N's!" Ethan called from the couch.

"E!" I said, dragging out the nickname like he did mine.

"Come cuddle me!" He said, raising his arms.

I giggled and made my way over to the couch.

"You're such a gump." I laughed and laid on top of him.

My head laid on his chest, listening to his heart beat.

"Can we go out tonight?" He asked, kissing the top of my head.

"I can't." I frowned. "I'm going out for a girls night out with Em." I said, bringing my head up to look Ethan in the eyes.

"It's okay." He said, leaning his head up and pecking my lips.

"Hey guys!" Emily said, making her entrance from the hall.

"Emily!" Grayson yelled.

"Hey, babe." Emily giggled as Grayson ran up to her and embracing her tightly.

"I'm sorry if I messed up, please don't be mad at me, I love you so much!" Grayson continued to spill.

"Gray, Gray, Gray!" Emily laughed.

"Hm?" He cooed.

"It's okay, I love you too." Emily said, her cheeks glowing pink.

"Should we give them some privacy?" I asked looking at Ethan that laid below me.

"I was just about to say." Ethan smiled, double chinking adorably.

I climbed off of him, waited for him to get up, took his hand, and led him down the hall to my room. As we left, the house erupted with smiles from Grayson and Emily. They looked so perfect with each other.

Once we reached my room, E just jumped on my bed and opened his arms up yet again for me to crawl into. I, of course did crawl into his arms. He instantly laid me on my back and stood over top of me. His hands on either side of my head, his legs on either side of my waist.

"You're a nerd, Ethan Dolan." I joked, smiling like an idiot.

"And you're a beautiful little bean, Y/F/N." He said back confidently.

"You heard what I said to Emily!" I gasped, the smile never leaving my face.

"Well, you weren't too discrete." He laughed, leaning down and kissing me.

"What do you wanna do before I have to leave?" I asked.

"Hm." He said, making a thinking face. "Disney movies and cuddling!" He yelled suddenly, scaring the crap out of me.

"Jesus Christ, Ethan!" I said, putting my hand over my heart. "You scared the living shit out of me!" I said while he laughed.

"I would say I'm sorry, but it was too funny." He said through the laughs.

"I hate you." I said, making a somewhat pout, but a smile overcoming it.

"No you don't." He smiled devilishly at me.

"True." I said, putting my arms around his neck, pulling his head down to mine and connecting our lips slightly.

"You tease!" He gasped.

I just winked up at him, whilst I bit my lip.

"God, stop it." He said, a sexy smile not leaving his lips.

"What?" I said, continuing to bite my lip.

"You're just so attractive." Ethan said.

Not being able to hold himself back, he brought his lips to mine, and kissed me passionately.

He pulled back breathlessly. "I love you, so so so much!" He smiled down at me.

"And I, you." I smiled up at him.

"Lilo and Stitch?" He smiled, reading my mind exactly.

"I was about to ask." I smiled up at him.

He leant down and kissed me. "Let's go."

He climbed off me, and we made our way to the living room where Emily and Grayson sat.

"Hey, lovebirds." Emily said, winking at me.

"Back at ya, lovebirds." I replied.

"We're gonna watch Lilo and Stitch. You guys wanna join?" Ethan asked the pair on the couch.

"We'd love to." Emily smiled at us.

"Great!" I cheered.

E and I sat down next to the other happy couple and put on the amazing Disney film. The curtains weren't drawn, leaving the room dark for the movie to play without much of a reflection. My head laid on Ethan's shoulder, one of my favorite Disney movies playing, and the three people most important in my lives next to me. I'm so in love with my life right now.
