Ethan's POV

{An hour before}

I was sitting at the breakfast table, waiting on Grayson finishing up making pancakes. The asshole just woke me up so I can eat his shitty banana pancakes. News flash: Grayson couldn't cook if his life depended on it!

Roxanne: (Sitting on Ethan's lap) Can you cook any slower, Gray? I'm starving!

Grayson: (Flipping pancake) Jesus, Roxanne! Be patient!

I laughed and turned to Roxy.

Ethan: (Grinning) You're hair looks the cutest when you've just woken up.

Roxanne: (Smirking) And your husky morning voice is so sexy...

She passionately pushed her lips onto mine. Before I can kiss her anymore, Grayson the cock blocker walked over and dumped our plates of pancakes in front of us.

Grayson: (Rolling eyes) Bro, I don't wanna see that! Get a room!

I laughed. Roxanne stood up and sat in the seat next to me.

After five minutes worth of pushing the most terrible pancakes ever down my gut, there was a knock on the door.

I threw on a black T-shirt on and opened the door to see a man, who looked about thirty, in a suit with square black glasses on.

???: Are you the person who has befriended my patient, Emily Saunders?

Ethan: Um, yeah. Why? Who's asking?

???: (Shows him ID card) I'm Garret Jefferson. Emily's personal doctor. I live with her next door. May I come inside?

I let Mr Jefferson inside and into our living room. He sat down on the sofa. I stayed standing.

Garret: You are aware of Emily's...differences, am I right?

Ethan: You mean her SCID? Of course.

Garret: Well she has made a request, for you to visit her. Face to face.

I beamed.

Ethan: Really?! Oh my god, I would love to! She has quickly became such a good friend of mine.

Roxanne then entered the room and wrapped her arms around my waist.

Roxanne: What's going on babe?

Ethan: (Looking at Roxanne) I'm getting to meet Emily in person!

She let go of me and huffed.

Roxanne: Oh, you mean your new BFF that lives across the street that you've nicknamed (making air quotes with her fingers) "Em"?

Ethan: Don't be jealous Roxy-

Roxanne: (Getting angry) No! You have been spending so much time talking to this girl that you have known for about three days! When was the last time you even took me out on a date?! I probably spend more time with Grayson than I do with you!

Ethan: Babe-

Roxanne spun on her heels and stomped upstairs, grumping and mumbling under her breathe. I sighed.

Garret: Trouble in paradise, huh?

Ethan: (Turning back to Garret) Tell me about it. I don't understand why she's getting so jealous...

Garret: Well...why don't you go upstairs and I'll see you at my house in five minutes?

Ethan: Sure. Thank you so much for this opportunity!

I saw Mr Jefferson out. I then had a quick shower and threw on some black ripped jeans, blue suede Doc. Martins and a plane black T-shirt.

I told Gray where I was going and told him about Roxy getting all jealous. Why do I always gotta date the jealous ones? I do really like Roxanne though. I wouldn't call if love but I do like her a lot. Why do you think she lives with us now?
