Lust for Love

Chapter 62

* Vivy's p.o.v. *

I woke up to the ray of sunlight that kept flashing on my face. It was warm and bright and I blinked a couple of times to adjust to the light.

Huh? What's this?

I feel a hand...

When I looked to my right I found a Gray sleeping beside me holding onto my hand.

What's he doing here?

I slowly sat up and looked around to check if I was still at my apartment.

I'm still here.

Did he stay overnight yesterday?

And what's that?

When I moved to get down from the bed, I woke Gray up who groaned a little before getting up with a jolt and grabbing my face rotating it in all four directions like a maniac.

"Geay...?" I called out to him through my squished cheeks and he stopped.

"Are you feeling alright? Does it hurt anywhere?" He asked with a very worried look on his face.

I suddenly remembered how I burst into tears yesterday and said things that might have freaked him out.

Damn it Vivy!

You moron!

I don't even remember properly what I said.

But seeing him like this I wonder if I said anything unnecessary.

Its hurts to see him like this though. Ha...

"No, it doesn't hurt anywhere." I smiled at him and tried to distract him, "by the way did Nathan visit too last night? I don't remember it though..."

I tried my best to remember but I just couldn't.

When I spoke of Nathan, Gray panicked a little as he tried to cover up but that gave him away, "What? No, he wasn't here. Don't worry he totally doesn't know. Oh don't tell him I stayed here he'll probably throw a fit and whine all day long about it."

He grinned awkwardly.

"Sigh. Then what is his bag doing here?" I pointed at the satchel lying beside my bed on the floor and I think I heard Gray curse under his breath.

"That idiot!"

I guess they both were trying to be considerate of my feelings.

I don't remember everything that I said or did but I guess meeting Hazel triggered memories and after Gray stubbornly said he'll follow me if I left, I think that's when I lost it again.

Before I realized it I was frowning from thinking about it until Gray called it out.

"Hey, are you okay? Is something troubling you?" His face looked pitiful from worrying and I couldn't stay angry at him for long.

"Sigh. Don't ever say you'll die that easily. Think about the others' will—" I was interrupted by a very angry Gray cause he was speaking way too calmly for his personality.

"You're really cruel Vivy. You have no right to be angry at Tyler if that's how you're gonna be. Why do you think your life isn't worth it? Do you really think Nathan and I will be able to go on living or get over your absence in a few years? I don't think we'll be able to live that long even if we tried not to take our own lives." Gray's angry face pouted as he bit his lower lip to not cry but tears of frustration melted down his cheeks while he still tightly clutched onto my hand.
