*Mature Warning*

Friday comes faster than a four year old runnin' from a rooster. I start the day as normal except Grey and I made a plan to ride together every home game Friday. It'd be easy since we'll have to leave the game at the same time, plus its more time together, then we'll go to his place after. Unless there's a party, which there is this Friday. I'm not sure if we'll stay long though. After games I'm always really tired, and I'd bet Greyson is too.

When I'm finished getting dressed I grab my things and run out the front door. Grey is already here, standing at the passenger door. He sees me and opens the door.

"Good mornin' Len." He helps me into the truck.

"Good morning Grey." I smile and he closes my door walking around to his door and hopping in.

"Oh hey," I start as he pulls out of my driveway, "I forgot to tell you, we have a party to attend after to game."

"Oh really?..." He questions.

"Yes, but I really don't want to stay for too long, I wanna get back to you house and maybe... I don't know..." I linger on the 'know'. He glances over to me with a smirk on his face. Its crazy how we've only officially been together for a little over a week now, but it feels like years, with a small break in the middle there.

"No I really don't know.. Can you elaborate?" He snidely questions.

"You know what never mind. Forget I said anything." I turn towards the window with a smile on my face. He grabs my hand.

"You know I'm kidding." He squeezes a few times, like Morse code.

"I sure do."

By the time lunch comes the whole table is buzzing with excitement. Talk about the "college party' spread like wildfire. I don't know why everyone's so interested in it, like we're not all going to be in college in less than a year.

"Its gonna be so amazing! Murphy youre still coming right?" Abby asks me.

"Uh, yeah. We're coming." I start peeling an orange. The table half way goes silent. I look up and most everyone is staring at me.

"What?.." I look around.

"Who is 'We'?" Sarah asks.

"What do you mean?"

"You said, and I quote, 'We're coming'. So who's 'we'?" She raises an eyebrow.

"You better not be back with Josh!" A girl named Courtney shouts.

"No! Never! You guys know that. Especially after what he did to me." I caught him sleeping with a 25 year old yoga instructor. "'We' as in me and Greyson." I continue peeling my orange, when I finally get it free from the peel I pop a slice in my mouth.

"'Greyson' as in 'best-friends-since-birth-then-split-in-9th-grade' Greyson? Orrr is there another Greyson?" I giggle.

"The former." I pop another slice in my mouth.

"OMG he is totally smokin' hot!" Courtney fans herself. My smile fades a bit.

"Yeah tell me about it." I roll my tongue over my top lip. Jealousy has never been my thing, but when it comes to Greyson I really cant control myself. Plus Courtney is a whore. She gives me a dirty look, I ignore it.

"Anyyywayyy" Sarah drawls. "I plan on getting completely shit-faced tonight." Everyone cheers. Topic officially changed. Sarah nudges my leg under the table, and gives me the 'I-need-details' face. I mouth 'later' to her. She drops it and joins the current conversation. I get up and leave the table, I need some air.
