Fuel The Fire

Ethina

Something tragic happens in the Davis' household and Kristina feels really guilty. Ethan is getting these strange feelings that confuse him about Kristina. She's just a friend. Right? Kristina knows he doesn't like her like that so why is he acting so strange? TWO-SHOT! Ethina. Merry Christmas!

"Ethan! *Cough* Why are you here?" Kristina asks as Ethan puts her to the ground.

"Well, saving you, for one thing." He says, chuckling sadly.

"I know... But why are you here?" She asks confused. I feel so out of it... I-I'm confused. Where am I anyways? "Where am I?"

"Kristina, what happened?" He asks worriedly.

"I don't know... What happened?"

"Kristina? Are you okay?" Everything is so fuzzy. It's like I can only see black.

Kristina falls unconscience in Ethan's arms, do to, he wrapped them around the young girl after placing her to the ground.

"I'm, okay, Ethan. I'm just gonna take a nap." She whispers tiredly.

"Krissy? Krissy! Wake up!" Ethan yells, shaking her. It then hits him like a ton of bricks. I need to call 911.

He pulls his phone out and dials 911; all the while, feeling as though a part of him would die if she did.

"911 speaking. What's your emergency?"

"I-I went to my friend's house and it was on fire! I got her out of the building, but I don't know how long she was exposed to the-the heat! You gotta come help her." He says pleadingly.

Also, remember that all he knows is that there was a fire. He knows no details.

"What is your adress?"

"X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*" Ethan says hurriedly. He has never felt so scared in his life; and he's a conman for Godsakes!

"Calm down, sir. We will send an ambulance." Calm down? They're telling me to calm down? What's wrong with this woman? Unfortunatly for Ethan, he got a rather... grouchy woman when he called 911.

"Don't tell me to cal-" He starts angrily. *Beep* Did she just hang up on me?

"Mmhm." Kristina groans tiredly. The first thoughts' in the young girl's head are, Where am I? and Woa, it's bright. As you can imagine, she's in the hospital.

"Krissy?" Ethan asks worriedly, causing more confusion for Kristina. After all, why is Ethan there?

"Ethan?" Kristina asks confused.

"Krissy, what happened?"

"Where am I?"

"I asked first." He says, chuckling lightly. Upon not hearing her laugh, he answers her question. "You're at a hospital. Now what happened?"

"I remember..." She whispers quietly. She feels so fragile being back in this bed. Fragile isn't a feeling that she likes. "There was a fire."

"I know that much. I got you out of it." He says seriously. No need to try and joke again!

(FlashBack)

"Ahh, a bath... Seriously, taking baths is the only thing that can calm me anymore." Kristina thinks tiredly.

Kristina unfolds her towel, and unknowingly, when she threw it on the bed; it knocked into a candel. Kristina, not noticing, proceeded to put on a pair of short-shorts and a purple tank-top with a blue butterfly.

Upon turning around, Kristina finally noticed the growing flames. But it's too late! The fire has spread past her door!

She heads for the window, but can't get it open.

Fear goes through her body and it hits her. She's going to die. There's nothing she can do. She is now thankful that her little sister and mom are out of the house.

"Somebody help! Help me!" Kristina yells, banging on her window. "I'm going to die." She slides down the window as tears freely fall down her face. Who's going to see, anyways?

"Wow..." Ethan mutters in awe.

"How did you get me out?" Kristina asks curiously. After all, she couldn't get out the window nor the door; how did he?

"I always carry my gun with me. I shot the window open." He says sheepishly. Well, as sheepish as Ethan Lovett can get.

"Why were you there in the first place?"

"I came to check on you 'cause I knew your mom and sister weren't there. I thought you could use a little company."

"Aww! That's so sweet! See, I knew you cared."

"I do care. I've invested too much time in you to not care." Little did Ethan know, those words cut through Kristina and she was quite frankly, shocked he said that to her face.

Juat as Kristina was about to reply, Patrick came in the room with a clipboard. "Well, Kristina, you're very lucky. If Ethan hadn't shot that window, you'd be dead. He saved you."

"He's my hero." Kristina says cheekily, causing Ethan to roll his eyes.

Maybe if she wouldn't try so hard... Ethan thinks sadly.

"How did the fire get started?" Patrick asks curiously.

"I got out of the bath and when I threw the towel on my bed, it hit into a candle. I didn't notice until it was too late." Kristina says honestly.

"Well, you're a very lucky girl, Kristina." Patrick says, smiling. He walks out after both Ethan and Kristina smile back.

"Oh my god! My baby! Are you okay?" Alexis asks hurriedly as she rushes in.

"Yeah, Mom, I'm fine. Ethan saved me." She answers, grinning.

"Thank you so much, Ethan." Alexis thanks, kissing her daughter on her forehead.

"Not a problem. I'll leave you two alone." Ethan says coolly.

"Alright, thank you. Send Molly in on your way out, please." Alexis says gratefuly.

"Will do." Ethan says, getting out of the hospital chair, and walking out.

"Your mom said to send you in." Ethan says awkwardly. Something about Molly just makes him nervous! It could be because she loves him and Kristina together! Or it could be because she makes him feel like part of a romance novel! Ethan Lovett is not a romantic man!

"Thanks, Ethan." Molly sobs, hugging Ethan tightly. This takes Ethan aback. It's not out of character for Molly to be touchy-feely but to cry? She rarely cries in front of anyone other than Shawn.

"Uhh, not a problem... You okay?" Ethan asks worriedly.

"No! Kristina could've gotten hurt and I wasn't there! I wasn't there to protect her from Keifer either!" She cries angrily. "Sorry... I'm just gonna go in... Sorry."

"No, it's alright. What do you mean? What could you have done to protect her from Keifer?" Ethan asks knowingly.

"I could've- I could've..." Molly starts.

"Exactly. There's nothing that any of us could have done. Now, go in and see your sister." Ethan says triumphantly.

"You're right, Ethan! Thanks!" Molly says happily. "Oh, and when are you gonna tell Kristina you love her?"

"Molly, how many times do I have to tell you? I don't love your sister! She's just not my type!" Ethan growns, annoyed.

"Then why do you keep saving her?" Molly asks, smirking.

Who would'a thought that Molly could smirk? It's against her nature! Ethan wonders, clearly shocked.

"Because it's the right thing to do, Molly!" Ethan says defensivly.

"You sure about that?" Molly asks, walking into the room. You can hear Molly's voice yell "Kristina!" and you can only assume she just seen the older Davis.

"Am I sure about that?" Ethan wonders quietly.

"I can't believe I get to go home today! Thanks for coming with me!" Kristina chirps happily.

"Well, I had to make sure you were being taken care of correctly." Ethan says, smiling.

"Either way, thanks." Kristina says, grinning. Ethan feels his heart flutter and it leaves him confused. Kristina's little crush has never bothered him before!

"You ready to go home?" Robin asks, smiling softly. Kristina nods her head eagerly as Alexis signes some papers.

"Hurry up, Mom!" Kristina commands excitedly.

"Slow down your train." Alexis says, chuckling.

"Slow down your train?" Ethan whispers mockingly to Kristina, causing the young girl to giggle.

"I heard that!" Alexis says, clearly annoyed, as she rolls Kristina out.

"Awww, it's just like in my romance novel! The boy talks to the girl as if nobody can hear!" Molly coos sweetly.

"Can it, Molly." Kristina hisses angrily.

"Alrighty then... Let's go." Alexis says nervously. Any mother can smell a sibling fight a mile away!

"Take it easy." Robin says happily as she walks away.

"Well, come on, sweet-heart." Ethan says cutely.

"Cute petnames!" Molly squeals under her breath.

"This is all my fault." Kristina says sadly as they drive past their 'house'. What remains of it anyway.

"Krissy, you didn't mean to." Ethan tries to sooth, sadly.

"Well, I also didn't mean to get my dad so mad that he'd try and blow Johnny up! Face it, Ethan; I screw everything up." Kristina says, crossing her arms defiantly. Ethan, about to say something, is cut off by them arriving at their new 'home'. "This is our new home?..."

"Yup! Isn't it nice?" Alexis asks excitedly. Though, part of her is dying because of what happened. That was where the girls first started setting her up with Mac after all!

"Yeah, I guess... Just not home." Kristina says sadly.

"Oh, I know, hunny." Alexis says soothingly.

"And we can make it home!" Molly chirps excitedly.

"Yeah, come on, Krissy. You know you'll love it." Ethan says, nudging her repeativly and saying "Huh? Huh?" with a smirk.

"Stop it, Ethan! Alright! I'll make it feel like home!" Kristina says, clearly aggrivated. Only Ethan could get Kristina this aggrivated!

"Much better." Ethan says contently.

"They're flirting, Mom!" Says Molly, excitedly. Alexis' face pales slightly and she knows she must quickly seperate them!

"Alrighty then! Let's go inside!" Alexis says quickly.

The four get out, some smiling, some not... and walk in.

"Wow, Mom! It's huge!" Molly says excitedly.

"Mac helped me pick it." Alexis says enthusiasticly.

"I think we did good, Molls." Kristina says happily, nudging Molly.

"You did great." Alexis says, kissing both girls on the head. "Now let's start unpacking. Ethan, do you want to stay or leave?" Alexis claps her hands together expectantly.

"You know, I think I'm going to head out." Ethan says nervously. Why does he want Kristina to beg him to stay? It's a weird feeling that he doesn't know just yet.

"Aww! Ethan, please stay!" Molly whines sadly.

"Molly, if Ethan wants to go; let him." Kristina says seriously.

The confusion sets in Ethan as he feels sad that Kristina doesn't want him to stay. I thought she had a little crush on me? Ethan wonders, confused.

"Errr, I can stay if you want." Ethan says hopefully.

"No, Ethan, you can go. Molly is just being a brat." Kristina says, shoving Molly playfully.

"Ok... So, I'll go..." Ethan says, walking slowly towards the door.

"Bye." Kristina says happily.

Ethan just nods his head then walks out of the front door. Molly gives Kristina a 'what are you doing?' look that Kristina doesn't understand.

"What?" Kristina asks, confused.

"He obviously wanted to stay!" Molly explains, exasperated.

"What?" Kristina asks franticly.

"I have to agree with your sister here. He wanted to stay." Alexis says, nodding her head knowingly.

"Why would he want to stay?" Kristina asks slowly.

"Because he likes you, ya ding dong!" Molly screams angrily. "Oh my God! I've never been so mean in my life!" Molly mutters sadly.

"It's fine, Molly..." Kristina says quietly. Though, she's wondering, Why would Ethan wanna stay here? Unless... No. He doesn't like me like that. He's made it clear enough.".

"Well, girls, let's get unpacking!" Alexis says happily.

"What little stuff we have left." Kristina mutters angrily.

End Part 1!
