ethan and i met a little over a week ago and we've been hanging out everyday. he asked me to be his girlfriend last night while we were laying in bed together. i accepted because i really really like him. it was a little soon but honestly i didn't care.
today he's taking me surfing. or i guess trying to teach me to surf. he had spent the night at my house again last night, as he has been for a while. so i was in my bathroom getting ready while he ran to go grab us boards from his house.
eventually ethan came back, in his swim trunks and me in my bikini.
"you look so good baby." he said, eyeing me.
"thank you, thank you." i said fake bowing. he laughed at me and i pulled up a random pair of jean shorts. "i'm so excited!" i said as i grabbed my bag.
"i'm excited to teach you." he said making me smile.
he kissed me before grabbing my hand as we walked down the stairs.
"hey where are you guys going?"
"oh hey tara, we're going surfing! i'll be back later tonight." i said
i talked to her for another few minutes before we headed back out to his jeep.
everyone really likes ethan and he gets along really good with all of my friends.
we just talked and listened to music the whole way to the beach which was nice. he had his hand protectively sitting on my thigh, which had me feeling butterflies.
once we got to the beach, we got out of the car and i took off my shorts, throwing them on the front seat. ethan got our boards off of the top of the jeep and he carried both of them down the beach, holding them in one arm and my hand in the other.
he showed me the basics while we were on the beach still before we took one of the boards out into the water. we both sat on the same board so he was able to help me better.
once i got the hang of that, we went back to shore and grabbed his board as well.

i didn't really ride any big waves but i was getting the hang of it.
eventually the sun started setting so we went back to the car to drive home. i threw on one of ethan's hoodies that he had in the back of his car before we left. we had on a chill playlist and we were talking about when we'd come back out again.
"i'm actually really proud of you bear. you did so good out there. i don't think anyone i've taught has learned that fast." he said to me. that meant a lot since he taught people daily how to surf.
"i'm shocked i was able to stand up." i said making us both laugh.
"i'm shocked that you didn't go under and then want to leave." he said, chuckling.
"hey lover boy don't go there." i said laughing, remembering when we went out for dinner the night before and they were out of cheesecake so i wanted to leave.
"you know i'm kidding, bear." he said
bear
"i look terrible im sorry." i said, opening the door and laughing. i was wearing a big sherpa jacket and fuzzy pants.
"you look cute." ethan smiled at me.
"i do not. but thank you babe." i said
"yes you do. you look like a teddy bear." he said
"an ugly teddy bear with pimple cream and knotty hair." i said giggling.
"okay well youre my bear then." he smiled and pulled me into a big bear hug.
"you're so cheesy. i love it." i said as he picked me up and started carrying me up to my room
i smiled to myself at the memory of 2 nights ago when ethan came over after hanging out with his friends.
we were moving very quickly and i would typically be opposed to that but i wasn't. it all just felt so natural.
when we got back to my house, i posted a snapchat of ethan and i

with the caption "when he's a surfer boy 😍" and posted it to my story
colby and i never announced our break up but the fans kind of assumed and now i was posting about ethan so i think they get the idea
ethan and i hopped in the shower to wash our hair, both of us still in our swimsuits.

and then i also posted a photo on my snap story again.
after we got out, we dried off and i went into my closet, grabbing one of ethan's hoodies he left here as well as throwing on a clean pair of underwear.
i walked into my room and ethan had on his gray joggers.
"do you wanna watch tv?" i asked him.
"that's fine, you can pick the show." he said
"i'm assuming you don't want to watch the vampire diaries?" i asked giggling.
"whatever you want to watch bear. i can get into pretty much any show." i nodded, smiling at how sweet he is.
"i'll start it from episode one for you" i smiled up at him.
we watched the show, him asking me occasionally questions. he ended up ordering a pizza for the two of us. so we ate that and hung out.
"so wait are katherine and elena the same person? and is bonnie really a witch?" he asked
"shhh just watch the show babe." i said laughing at him.
i ended up falling asleep about three or four episodes in.
by time i woke up, the tv was paused on episode six so i guess ethan was enjoying the show.
i smiled while looking up at him. ethan was so sweet and genuine and caring. and hot.
