emma's pov

my bed shook, waking me up as hannah and ellie jumped on top of me, i was kind of annoyed the interrupted the best sleep i had in awhile, but i was also so happy. i hadn't seen them for weeks and i just felt overall, bad without them. they made me happier.

"you bitches i'm trying to sleeeeep." i moan, they just laughed away, continuing to shake the bed i was rested on.

"get upppppppppp!" hannah yelled, i shook my head, pulling the covers back over my head, but they wouldn't stop shaking me so i just gave into it.

we were driving around looking for somewhere to eat instead of just post mating food because they wanted to get out of my apartment, which i completely understand.

we stepped into in n out and picked out a booth next to the window, hannah and ellie went to go order food but i wasn't really hungry, like at all. i just had no appetite.

by the time they came back with everything they started the questioning on ethan! great!

"we're friends." i say everytime they ask a new question, what else do they want me to tell them? i wasn't in the mood to think about him.

"friends don't kiss each other at the beach, emma." ellie remarks, stuffing in like four french fries.

i rolled my eyes and ellie laughed, "i thought you wanted boy talk." hannah says, mocking my text from yesterday.

"i do it's just he's so confusing and i wouldn't even know what to talk about." hannah nodded, she had a boyfriend for like a year now. and she was completely happy with him, ellie doesn't but she always contributes to our boy talk with a new random guy once in awhile. well it was the same for me except now when i think of boy talk i think of ethan.

nothing is the same between the "sister squad" now. it's like we all just lost the spark? james hates me for whatever reason and grayson just seems so annoyed at all times. ethan is moody as fuck and doesn't even joke around anymore. i miss when there were no complications or feelings.

ellie and hannah had given up on trying to talk to me about him at this point, they drifted off into their own conversation.

"i'm so bored." i confess, interrupting whatever they were talking about.

"you should've got food." ellie taking down a whole chicken nugget in one bite. i don't even know what they taste like and i wanted them?

"you're so right." i say, hannah smiled and pulled a twenty dollar bill from her back pocket, trying to hand it to me but i push it away. i'm not taking her money.

i shake my head, she just nods and slips it back into her pocket, i took a sip of the coffee i made before we came.

my chest buzzed, i freaked out at first but soon realized its only because i put my phone into my bra.

i pulled it out nonchalantly and the notification read, text message from: ethan 😎

i opened it, what does he have to say now?

from: ethan😎

yo

i did not feel like talking to him, just thinking about him frustrated me. and i know he didn't exactly do anything in particular but i guess i was just more frustrated in myself. i guess.

from: ethan😎

don't leave me on seen e

i didn't even mean to but ok hot shot.

to: ethan😎

sorry? clingy..

i pressed the send button as hannah tried to get my attention by waving her greasy ass hand in my face.

"fuck outta here." we laughed until i got another buzz.

"who is that?" hannah asks, ellie waits for a response too.

"ethan." hannah and ellie looked to each other and smiled. what was with that?

from: ethan😎

nah i just miss you where ru

my stomach feels as if it dropped, maybe because i'm starving myself from food, not from the a million butterflies this guy has just haven me from a text message.

to: ethan😎

with hannah & ellie lol

from: ethan😎

aight well if you guys wanna come over we could do something all together, my boy aaron is here.

to: ethan😎

i'll ask.

i turned my phone off and looked to the girls who were already looking at me.

"do you guys wanna go over to the twins house?" they looked like they just got surprised with tickets to a beyoncé concert, their faces lit up.

"um duh." hannah spits out, ellie nodded.

okay then.

to: ethan😎

we're coming over after we eat alright?

from: ethan😎

alright babe

what the hell is with him and babe?

ellie and hannah finished up eating and took an instagram picture of one another at the booth. i didn't really want one since i looked like shit.

and i'm going to the twins house, looking like shit!

-

i knock on their door and take a step back waiting for whoever to open it, and someone did but i never met him before, sure i've seen him on social media but who hasn't? it was aaron carpenter.

"hey ladies." he moved to the side and made a come in gesture, we walked in and my eyes immediately landed on ethan who was on his phone laying on the couch, but easily got distracted bye me.

"you came." ethan said in a low voice.

i pointed to hannah, "this is hannah" then at ellie, "and this is ellie."

grayson was on the couch next to ethan, his eyes now staring at hannah?

they all nodded, ethan pointed to aaron who stood behind us, "that's aaron." i nodded, i already knew that.

and boy was he cute.

-

we were all just chilling when ethan out of the blue just asks us to play truth or dare. everyone agreed but i wasn't so sure. i didn't want questions about ethan and i.

"emma truth or dare?" hannah asked, she had been texting me the whole night reminding me not to stare at aaron. and ethan had been catching me too. why couldn't i keep my eyes off of him?

"kiss aaron." she demands, i nervously gulp, what the fuck kind of dare was that? aaron didn't seem to care, maybe he didn't know about ethan and i?

my eyes rolled and i sat up off of the ground and walked over to where aaron was seated on the couch, before even looking at him i looked at ethan. his eyes were faced to the ground. he couldn't look.
