Paisley's POV

"Ethan?"
Was he really here or was I just visioning him in my head?
"I'm glad you're okay...I had Paxton's phone when you called. I got here as soon as I could."

Did I sense some worry in his voice?
I didn't reply...I mean what was there to say?

"So uuhm...you gonna lay there just staring at me all night?" He broke the silence...scratching the back of his head awkwardly.

"I don't know...I might."

"Stretch a lil bit won't you?"

"Yeah I would if these big hands weren't holding me  down." I said with a huff and he chuckled nervously.

"My bad..."

As soon as he let go of me I felt a cold breeze sweep up my arms and I shivered a little.

We sat there in awkward silence until he cleared his throat.

"So uuhm..nice house."

I rolled my eyes and ignored him. It's not like it was the first time he was here anyway.

"Jeez! Can't a man attempt some small talk?" He asked, smirking slightly.

Did he have any idea how hot that was?

"Aaand...she's checking me out. Again. Smh"

"I wasn't checking you out Ethan. Your attempts at small talk are pathetic. That's what I was about to say."

He put his hand over his heart feigning hurt and I smacked his arm.

" Go wear something nice." He suddenly said.

"Wh..wha?"

"I'm taking you somewhere."

"Aaw...like a date?" I joked

"No...just somewhere I want you to accompany me."

"Then I think my pajamas will do just fine." I teased and he shook his head.

"Plus I didn't really wanna leave the house..." I added.

"Zoe...go put something good on before I drag you into that bedroom myself." He warned and the wrong lips got a little too excited.
One look at his serious face and I sighed defeatedly.

"Okay. Give me 30 minutes"

"Thirty..." He started complaining
"Yeah unless you wanna go on your ownn" I threatened jokingly.

"Yeah whatever. Just...do your thing" he said taking out his phone.

I rummaged through my closet for a whole 10 minutes. It would have been easier if I knew where we were going.

I finally settled for a simple fit.

"You almost took forever in there." Ethan scoffed as soon as I emerged out the bedroom..giving me a once over.
"Yeah but I'm here now. Can we leave?"
