“Everyone needs your loving? Oh really now? And she sure is. I totally don’t know anymore..” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“Yep. Everyone needs it. There’s no avoiding the truth, dude. An impressive lady indeed. Me neither.”

[violet-fowler]

“I think it’s in our blood. Oh please, you’re pretty fit for an old man.” she teased his sticking out her tongue at him in amusement. She honestly saw anything wrong with his shape, though then again, she never was one to judge a person because of their shape or size. Violet faked gasped and shook her head. “Me, mean? You’re funny! Now, okay that one I won’t argue with because she is mean to me.” Violet contuinues to laugh her girly giggle obviously very amused by her brother’s actions. “Not my fault that I seem sort of appealing to him, so he wouldn’t leave me alone unless I talked to him! That is very true and he enjoys your company as well. He said you were a pretty good roommate.”

“I think you’re right. And aw, you’re just saying that cause it’s my birthday, aren’t you?” He laughed, grinning at her show of tongue, sticking his out in response. He was content with himself, whether he joked about himself a lot or not. Ethan couldn’t help but laugh again at her playful gasping, “You are mean. All the time, to me especially. She can be very mean sometimes, but it’s part of her charm.” He confessed, a smile warming his lips just at the thought of their sister. He really did adore both of them. “It is your fault. Stop being so appealing maybe?” He joked, grinning at her again, “And he said that? I’m definitely going to have to steal him from you now.” Another joke, this time followed by a playful wink.

“Well, he doesn’t need your loving cause he got mine loving. Oh, totally, Gigi is one lucky girl. Wait.. what how do you know what?” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“Everyone needs my loving. She sure is, although she’s doing well for herself too. What?”

[kai-phillips-deactivated2018122]

“I may just have to at least once, I wouldn’t mind seeing all the behind scenes work thats put into all of it. Actors do that too, yeah? Like with all the improve stuff you do?” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“We wouldn’t turn down a curious fellow, unless it was for a big end of school performance or something. It can be kinda interesting. We have some pretty impressive people. And yeah, sometimes. We’re a team, improv helps everyone do better.”

“It reminds me of a hippy - and hippys weren’t as cool as they wanted to be. Well that is your lose, I tell amazing jokes.”

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“Hippies are totally cool dude. You’re just breaking my heart now. Really? Well if I’m going to miss out on those, I might re-consider...”

[bestforlast-kyle]

“I would call rocking it generous… Well clearly its Louis - how could you even ask?”

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“No, no. He definitely rocks it. And Louis? Nooooo. I don’t think I can talk to you, man.”

ROUGH TOUCH (yolo)

8. My muse grips your muse’s hips.

Having heard the rumours spreading of Kai’s supposed ‘scandals’, Ethan didn’t want to let the boy think he could hurt his younger sister. While he may usually be a kind and gentle person, he could turn a little bit meaner if someone laid a wrong hand on either of his sisters. Sure Violet loved Kai and even Ethan found his roommate charming and likeable, but he didn’t want to leave the chance of the rumours being true un-dealt with. As Kai was in the kitchen, Ethan grabbed the male’s hips as he was against the counter, stopping him from moving, “I hope you’re treating my sister right.” He muttered into the male’s ear, before releasing his hips and walking to the fridge to get some milk out, acting as if nothing had happened.

"I'm dying." (okay sorry yup done now)

Standing by her side at the hospital bed, Ethan squeezed her hand, bringing her knuckles up to him and kissing them softly. “Hey, don’t say that. We don’t know that for sure. We don’t know that yet.” He told her, frowning softly as he bit back the urge to hug her or panic. He didn’t want her to die. Nor did he want to see her like this either. Pale and thin, with cold, clammy hands that felt foreign to him now. They were still hers though and he wasn’t going to lose hope that there was some way she could get better. She had to get better. She was tougher than she looked. It was his favourite part about her. “You’re- You’re just very ill. That’s all. You can get better, I know you can.” His voice was kind of weak, like even he was unsure. He pressed another kiss to her knuckles, “Plus, you have the fairies protecting you. They’ll heal you.”

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“I trust you.”

Her words made Ethan bit his lip. Trust held an element of responsibility and he didn’t know if he really deserved her trust. Her words made him happy though. He was glad she trusted him. It’d make his surprise for her all the more better. “I’m glad you do.” He whispered, gently guiding her through the room with his hand around her waist as she covered her eyes with her hands. They got to his room and he switched on the light. On the bed sat a big box, wrapped with a giant red bow and there were rose petals scattered over the box and his bed. He even had a candle burning to make sure his room didn’t smell funky. “You can open your eyes now,” he murmured, removing his arm from her waist and crossing his arms over his chest. “Happy Birthday, Luc.”

“Just because he left doesn’t mean that he doesn’t deserve any love! Oh, I know right? Pillow talk is totally my jam.” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“He abandoned my boys, he doesn’t deserve any of my loving. But I wanna give him it still. Isn’t it just? He’s got such good tunes and his eyes are outta this world.”

[violet-fowler]

“Right? Sweet talk makes me want to eat all the candy, cookies, and icecream in the world.. with the amount of sweets I eat I’m surprise that I am actually really thin..” she mumbles slightly looking down at her short self. She enjoy how her family was with one another, sure they fought from time to time, but what family doesn’t? Other than their occasional fights, they actually get along pretty well. She grins cheekily at him. “I am not mean, I am a lovable person! Phoebe is the mean one, obviously.” she jokes giggling at his sniffles. “And how is it my fault? He wouldn’t leave me alone until I actually talked to him! Don’t worry, little Goldie enjoys our company! Or at least I hope he does..” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“You’re not the only one. And you’re lucky. I didn’t get that blessing, unfortunately,” Ethan laughed patting his stomach with a grin. He didn’t mind being slightly bulky though. Part of it was muscle, the rest was because he was big boned like their father and some was because he did enjoy sweets a little too much for a grown man. “You are totally mean. Just Phebs is meaner.” He grinned at her. Glad he had got her giggling, he sniffed dramatically again. “Exactly. Definitely your fault. And I think he does enjoy our company, at least yours. Otherwise he wouldn’t be dating you, lil sis.”

[kai-phillips-deactivated2018122]

“Nah, its good for now..ive got all weekend to hang out with them.” he said with a slight grin and shrugged his shoulder. Kai looked back over to Ethan as he strummed a couple random chords on the guitar and enthusiastically smiled. “Yeah man, it helps with writers block to just mess around like that. You’re always welcome to come and watch during rehearsal sometime when its going on. Thats for sure, it does help a lot getting to talk with other musicians for some inspiration.” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

Giving Kai a grateful smile, Ethan didn’t comment further. He listened to the music, his foot jerking slightly. Nodding in understanding, he muttered, “Makes sense. And maybe I will. You’re welcome to come and watch our rehearsals too, if you wanted. Although, it’s hardly as exciting, unfortunately. Yeah? I think it’s good to bounce ideas off other people.”

“Harry is cool and all, but it’s totally all about Zayn.” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“Don’t even talk to me about Zayn. That boy is a traitor, but he’s pulling me to the darkside with his new album and tunes. Like- damn.”

[violet-fowler]

“That is very true, the whole family have a sweet tooth.” Violet nodded her head, giggling happily enjoying how the two were literally so giggly with one another. At his playful act, she rolled her eyes at him and shook her head. “Nope, I was only suppose to be nice to you when I was younger. It maybe your birthday, but I’m still allowed to be rude to you.” she jokes as she playfully punched his shoulder. Her bubbly personality shined through as she looks over to him. “Hey, it’s Kai’s fault for entering my life six years ago and he totally love us bears.” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“We really do. It’s crazy, really. But the more we talk about sweets, the more I want some.”He loved that he was able to be so joky and casual with her. He knew other people didn’t always get along with their siblings, but he had his girls for life - he wasn’t going to have them hating him, even if they did occasionally have their disagreements.He snickered at her eye rolling, “So mean. And to think that one my one day of birth you can’t even be nice then.” He feigned a sniffle and tears, gasping playfully when she jabbed his shoulder. “Hey, it’s your fault too, Missy, don’t go blaming Kai. Poor Goldie.”

[kai-phillips-deactivated2018122]

“I don’t know why I didn’t think of coming here earlier. I’ll hide here until they need me.” he chuckled and looked up from his guitar with a grin. Giving another laugh at his question and shrugged his shoulder. “I wouldn’t call them a battle, we like to mess around when we’ve got free time, kinda like an open mic sort of thing..its more chill then how others like to make ‘em out to be.” 

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“Don’t let me keep you forever, if you do want to go back to your family,” Ethan told him though, smiling and genuinely feeling grateful for Kai’s company.  His smiled grew at the sound of Kai’s laughter, “An open mic? That does sound kinda cool and entertaining to watch. It definitely sounds more chill now. Makes sense. Most of you just want to get through the school years, right? So you all help each other out?”

“You think the hair is cool? I’m not so sure about it myself.”

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“Sure. He’s one of the only dudes who can rock it. But who’s your favourite then?”

[underthelights-ethan-blog]

“He’s got that cool hair thing going on.”
