MASTERLIST
“Hey babe?” you heard him say from the bedroom.
“Yeah?” You called to Ethan, keeping your eyes on the mirror, as you brushed your teeth.
No answer.
“E?”
You heard the bathroom door open and you saw your boyfriend in the reflection of the mirror shuffle in. He made his way over to you, placing his hands on your hips and his chin atop your head. “Mmm,” he hummed into your hair. “You’re the perfect height for me to rest my chin on your head,” he whispered. Just the feel of his body on yours made your heart warm.
“I love you. So much,” he mumbled, kissing your cheek, and as he continued, his kisses travelled down your neck and shoulder.
“Baby, I’m trying to brush my teeth,” you chuckled, mouth full of toothpaste. “We can make out later,” you half-joked. You felt him smirk against your skin and you peeled away from him just to tease him.
“Hey!” he protested, making you snort. “Go to bed, I’ll come when I’m done,” you urged.
He frowned. “Fine,” he scoffed, backing out the door slowly. You spat out the toothpaste and washed your face. Placing the washcloth over your face, you massaged your skin gently, sighing softly as the warmness soaked into your skin.
The feeling quickly faded when you felt a splash of cold water drench your head, soaking your hair and your clothes. Shrieking from the sudden temperature change, you ripped the cloth off your face, to reveal a literal ‘rolling on the floor laughing’ Ethan holding an empty plastic cup in his hand.
“ETHAN!!! What the fuck!!”
He couldn’t even speak; he was too busy clutching his stomach still gasping for air on the floor.
You stomped over to the shelves to grab a clean towel, quickly drying yourself so you could use the now-damp towel to whip at Ethan before he could get up.
“You’re!” Whip. “Such!” Whip. “An!” Whip. “Ass!” Whip. “Hole!!!!”
You flung the towel onto his face, muffling his laughter that was still going on, before heading into the bedroom and finding some clean pajamas to wear. As you slid on a new shirt, you felt hands jabbing at your side, sending you into a scream fest and Ethan into a fit of laughter once more.
“Ethan Grant Dolan, I swear to fucking God if you-”
You were silenced by his lips pushing firmly onto yours. You were so annoyed with this kid, but who could resist? You grabbed him and kissed him back, deepening the kiss, making it rougher. He gripped your back, pulling you closer to him, lips still connected. He started to kiss down your neck, making you give out a small moan.
But what he couldn’t hear was the evil grin that had begun to form on your face. You snatched your black hair elastic off the drawer where you kept your clothes and twisted it to make a slingshot-like shape.
Pretending to press your hand against the back of his neck, you took your other hand and stretched out the elastic.
Snap!
“FUCK!” he swore, jumping away from you. “What the hell was that?!”
You gave him a sly smirk, holding up the elastic.
“Y/N!” he gasped, squinting his eyes at you.
“You deserved it, weirdo,” you retorted, rolling your eyes. “C’mon let’s go to bed. No more screwing around.”
Ethan opened his mouth to protest but you cut him off.
“And NO playing Fortnite!”
“Fine!” he grumbled, flailing lifelessly onto the bed. You grabbed his arms, pulling him onto you and shuffling under the covers. You rested your head and your hands on his bare chest as he wrapped a leg around you and his arms around your torso.
“You know, if you weren’t here I could be playing Fortnite,” he muttered.
“Ha! As if,” you snarked. “If I wasn’t your girlfriend you’d be alone forever.”
He laughed, giving you a gentle push under the blankets. “Rude!”
You smiled against his chest, knowing you had won this time.
“It’s probably true though.” he chuckled. “I’m so lucky I have you baby.”
Okay, maybe you hadn’t won yet.
“Are you trying to use your soft technique to get to me E?” you teased, looking up at him. But he wasn’t. There was no smirk drawn on his lips, there was no playfulness in his eyes. Instead, there was a gentle, soft smile of sincereness spread across his face and his golden hazel brown eyes read truth. He meant it.
“Aww Ethan,” you melted. “I love you.” You kissed his lips, once, twice and a third time. “So so much.” He only became soft like this when the two of you went to bed together.
You snuggled once more into his chest, and you felt his hands come up to play with your hair.
“You know, I remember practicing how to ask you out in the mirror. I was so nervous, I kept fumbling over my words and Grayson was teasing me ‘cause usually he’s the one who can’t speak,” he laughed softly. “He kept telling me not to bother trying ‘cause you probably wouldn’t say yes anyway.”
“Baby,” you breathed gently. “You’re so cute. Everything about you is perfect. I wanna kiss your face ‘til you make me stop but even that won’t make me stop ‘cause I love you too much. You’re the bestest boyfriend...”
He could tell you were falling asleep because you were starting to mumble “cuteness overload” on him. It was one of his favourite parts of falling asleep together because it was the time he got to hear your honest thoughts about him and how much you really loved him. As he embraced you, he continued talking.
“But I didn’t listen to him, he obviously didn’t know what he was talking about. I wasn’t just going to give you up ‘cause my brother ‘told me to.’ I didn’t care if you said yes or no. Well, okay I really wanted you to say yes.”
At this point, he was just talking to himself, because your light snores had started.
“But I knew I would have regretted it if I didn’t take the chance.”
“And you know what? Grayson was damn wrong. I have the best girlfriend in the world and now I’m tucked in bed with her sleeping on me. You’ll be mine forever. I just know it. I want nothing more in the world than to spend the rest of it with you. And we’re gonna get married, and have kids, maybe 4? That’d be a lot of good sex. And we’re gonna get a HUGE house and we’ll go on vacation every year. We’ll get a dog to keep Gray away since he’s allergic and we’ll go back to New Jersey every other month…”
He continued to draw on and on about the life he’d spend with you in the future, as you continued to snore softly on him.
Finally, he looked down at you sleeping soundly. Smiling, he leaned over and kissed your forehead gently. “Goodnight, Y/N. I promise you, I will give you the best life with me that you could ever ask for.”
And even though you couldn’t hear him, he knew that you knew all of this already.
I wrote about soft E today hahaaa. I hope you liked reading about soft E, I really liked writing it! The idea just came out of nowhere, so I hope I met standards for all you Ethan girls? It was kinda hard to write since I’m hardcore in Gray’s lane lolol. I hope it did justice!
Thanks for reading, and remember, you can always request anything you want me to write in my inbox! It’s always open:))
