"El.." A soothing voice woke me up.
"What now?" I whined, flipping over to where the voice was coming from with my eyes still closed.
"Open your eyes El."
I obey the voice and open my eyes. Tyler was sat in front of me.
"There we go." He smiles, "Marks recording and Ethan, Amy and Kathryn went home."
"Why do I need to know this?" I question.
He shrugs, "I just didn't want you to be alarmed if you woke up and no one was around, like usual."
"Can I go back to sleep now?"
"Sure." Tyler laughs, "Do you want me to carry you to Marks bed?"
I reply with a simple okay before I feel Tyler's strong arms lifting me up bridal style and carrying my down the hall to Marks room.
Tyler sets me down on Marks bed, as if I were glass. He then leaves me to sleep with a simple kiss on the forehead.

"You can't keep sleeping all day, El." Ethan laughs as he lays next to me on Marks bed.
I roll my eyes and laugh, "I have to deal with you. I think I deserve to sleep all day."
He laughs, "Fuck you too."
We soon found ourselves laying there, on Marks bed, just studying each others faces.
My mind was racing with thoughts I didn't want to be true. Yet, I knew deep down in my heart that they could actually be true. Ethan is my best friend, I can't think of him being anything more..right? I don't know. All I know is Ethan has the most amazing personality, he can make me laugh so easily with his humor and his eyes I often find myself getting lost in while having a simple conversation with him.
"Hey Elena? I was wondering if you n-" Mark stopped just as he walked into the room, "Am I interrupting something?" His eyes darted back and forth between Ethan and I.
I shake my head, "Nah, you're good."
Out of the corner of my eye, I see a hint of sadness in Ethan's face after I said that.
"I was just wondering if you needed anything since I plan on going out and doing some stuff here, soon." Mark asked.
"Can I come with and help you?" I offer.
Mark nodded, "I'm leaving pretty soon here. Finish whatever you guys were doing." Mark winks at us before walking out.
I laugh, shaking my head, "See you later, Ethan." I kiss his cheek before getting up.
Ethan smiled at me before I ran out of the room.
What the fuck just happened? I ask myself. Ethan is just my best friend. Nothing more, nothing less.
