'Will you still love me when I am no longer young and beautiful?'- Lana Del Ray (Slay)
I quickly jump onto my bed, after picking up my fallen pillows and blankets.
"Ah" I let out as I lay down sprawled out.
I close my eyes and part my mouth.
"Lynn?" Ethan calls from outside my bedroom.
"What?" I call back.
"I am taking Lana to school, I'll be back in a few"
"Kay" I say pulling the covers over me.
•••
My eyes open immediately after I heard the front door open then close.
I had a small heart attack before I realized it was Ethan coming back from dropping Lana off.
I rub my eyes and I carefully pull myself up from the bed.
"Mm" I let out as I stretch.
God I haven't taken a nice nap in about a year.
Actually, I haven't even taken a nap in a year.
I pull myself out of bed and I make my way to the door of my bedroom.
I open it up and look outside.
The hallway was empty and it was completely silent.
I make my way out into the empty hallway and I walk down it.
As I enter the living room, my eyes fall onto a shirtless Ethan who was lying on the couch watching some sort of cartoons.
"You're back" I say.
Ethan looks up at me, "Yup, I thought you were sleeping so I didn't want to wake you up"
I nod and go around the couch.
"Your parents called today and told me that their trip would last a little more than a week" Ethan said as he watched me sit down on the couch.
"Why?" I ask situating myself in a criss-cross position.
He shrugs and looks back at the tv, "Dunno"
Damnit.
I am going to have to be stuck with him longer than a week?
I mean I was already preparing myself for the week but now I have to prepare myself for more?
"Lynn," Ethan says knocking me out of my thoughts,"you know I can see you staring at me"
"What?"
Out of all places, I had to zone out on Ethan.
Ethan looks at me, "You were looking at me" he chuckles lightly.
I shrug, "I sometimes zone out while looking at people"
Damnit.
God fucking damnit.
Why do I always have to do these things to make this whole entire situation 5 times worse.
