ethan’s time in the military had admittedly messed him up pretty bad. while he did what he could to live with the reprecussions of it all, he still very much struggled with nightmares and well, sloane was a saint. “you deserve better than this.” he finally spoke, his body hunched forward in the bathtub as she attempted to soothe him. he stared at the faucet in front of him and glanced back at her, “am i really worth it?” he asked, his tired eyes meeting hers.

ethan promised that he would take his girlfriend out and treat her. she deserved it after everything that he put her through and he knew that. he hated that he put her through so much but she continued to reassure him that she still loved him and god, he loved her too. his hand came to the small of her back as he opened the car door for her and led her into the bar, “we’ll get a little bit of liquid courage in our systems and then i’ll take you out on the dancefloor like old times. how’s that sound?”

“-hey, you son of a bitch!” ethan grumbled as one of the goats managed to escape its fence past his leg. he was trying his best to catch it and even though he had the vampire speed, he was still just as clumsy as he was before he was turned. he jumped forward in attempt to catch the farm animal and landed face first in a pile of mud. moments later, he heard footsteps approaching and that’s when he looked up to see who it was. “how much of that did ya see? i hope only the good parts.”

closed starter for @vvhimsicals ft. ethan & imani

ethan had no idea what he was going to do outside of the military. all he knew is that he was ready to get out and he wanted to see what other opportunities were out there. he assumed he could put his flying skills to good use though since he spent so long doing it. it was his first day outside of training and he decided to start out as a flight attendant, this running into imani who seemed so willing to help him in any way she could. "you this helpful to all the new guys or am i just lucky?" he joked, his eyes glancing over at her as he shifted to make some more coffee for the passengers. "either way, i have to say, you've made this whole first day at a new job as smooth as butter. thank you for that."

“-get out.” ethan grumbled at the blonde woman. the man had been through a lot in his life and he always managed to find a way to mess up the good things in his life. “did you hear me? i said get out!” he had woken her up with one of his night terrors and he didn’t like her seeing him like this. a matter of fact, he was almost confused as to why she was with him at all. “go!”

ethan had just got back from his orders overseas and of course the first thing that he was going to do was visit his best friend. he hadn’t told him he was coming over and instead, planned on surprising him but the only person that seemed to be home at the time with his little sister. she’d definitely matured since the last time he’d seen her. “so,” he turned to look at her, leaning his head against his hand, “you think i should ruin the surprise and text your brother or is he bound to walk through the door at any minute?”

ethan was the irresponsible sibling and he narrowed that down to him being the youngest sibling, “come on, alexis. you don’t think i can make a feed run without you comin’ along?” that was the thing - he couldn’t. the man would definitely get distracted. on top of that, when he was out he liked to flirt and alexis was definitely going to kill any chance of getting any girl’s phone numbers. he groaned and leaned his head against the door of his old, red cheverlet truck. “fine! fine, alright. we ain’t got all day. i don’t wanna hear it from mickey if we’re gone too damn long.”

Si él hubiese tenido la posibilidad de plantear qué se imaginaba que sucedería con el resto de su vida, seguramente no hubiese dicho aquello. Pero de todos modos, ahí estaba. Tomándose un pequeño descanso de su vida en bajo la mirada de todos y de su carrera artística y dedicándose a aquello que lo había quitado de su cueva y ayudado a salir adelante en primer lugar. No eran los escenarios o las presentaciones a las que estaba acostumbrado, pero sin duda se sentía bien volver a sostener una cámara en mano, volver a ser Ethan el fotógrafo antes que cualquier otro cosa.

Había estado en aquel set desde que lo habían abierto por la mañana y ahora, que ya se encontraba repleto de gente, desde gente de maquillaje, asistentes, hasta los muy necesarios iluminadores, se sentía más que listo para volver al ruedo. Sin duda Vogue siempre sería su hogar, al menos así lo sentía. Y ahora que había tenido la posibilidad de volver a revisar su estudio favorito y familiarizarse con él, pretendía sacarle el mayor provecho posible.

Claro que todo eso se sintió en pausa cuando un bonito rostro cruzó la puerta del lugar, caminando totalmente decidida iba ella, como si aquella sala le perteneciera. El problema, en realidad, era que no era un rostro nuevo. Él la conocía, y la conocía bien. ¿Cómo no iba a conocerla si solía llamarla bebé cada día al despertar en la cama que compartían? Claro, antes de la separación. 

De todos los escenarios que había previsto al pensar en aquel día, su ex sentada frente a él, dejándose retocar por el personal de maquillaje, no había sido uno. 

“Empezamos en cinco” dijo el chico de rulos, elevando un poco su voz para que todos ahí pudiesen oírlo, mientras se giraba para estrechar la mano de su asistente personal que acaba de llegar. Asumía que todos lo habían oído. Todos. Incluso ella.
