Faking

Chapter 14

I was currently inside Grayson's car.

My mind was dying from being so bored. For the past few hours, I have been sitting in the car with nothing to do.

I tried turning on the music, but Grayson turned it right off without even telling me why he turned it off.

He still seemed to be avoiding me because of what I said about him, Tristan, and Gabriel.

I pouted looking out the window and everytime he ignored me.

I was getting really bored so I started counting how many buildings we passed by.

Soon, I got bored of that and started singing.

I know I am random.

That got Grayson to glare at me and he said, "Shut up or I'm going to leave you here all alone."

I shut my mouth quickly because I had no clue where we were.

I tried to sleep but it wasn't working at all.

I slept too much yesterday which explains why I was late today.

I looked out the window and saw how we have passed all the tall buildings and we were now looking at the countryside.

It looked really pretty and it made me smile.

I looked at Grayson and said, "Are we there yet?"

As usual he ignored me.

I tried annoying him but he still ignored me.

Hmmm.

I leaned my lips close to his ear and screamed.

He turned the car to the side of the road and said, "ARE YOU TRYING TO GET US KILLED?!"

I smiled and said, "I got you to talk so it was worth it!"

He narrowed his eyes at me and said, "I told you to mind your own business and stop bugging me. I don't like you at all and I didn't even know you were coming with me today. I was excited to be away from you for Thanksgiving break, but you are coming with me. Ugh."

I felt hurt so I glared at him and got out of the car.

I shouted, "Fine! I will leave!"

I got my luggage out from the back seat and started walking away from the car.

I could hear him following me, but I chose to ignore him. I kept on walking trying to ignore him. He kept on shouting at me and asking where I was going.

Suddenly, Grayson grabbed my arm and turned me around. He's so fast! I was pretty sure I was way ahead of him before.

He said, "You better get back in the car or Grace will kill me when you don't arrive at the house with me."

Ugh. That's all he cared about?

I moved his hand away from my arm and said, "Make me."

Suddenly, Grayson smirked and said, "Oh, I will."

I looked at him confusedly when he put me on top of his shoulder and held my luggage with his other hand.

He started walking while I tried kicking and hitting him to let go.

Guess what he did?

He ignored me. Again. Ugh.

I gave up trying to make him let go of me.

He continued to walk and we got in the car.

He put my luggage in the back with me still hanging on his shoulder.

He led me to the passenger's seat and sat me down.

He put the seat belt on me and I realized how close our faces were.

I started blushing and looking away from his face. He didn't even seem to notice.

Didn't he care at all? I'm a girl too!

The rest of the car ride went silently and we arrived at his house.

When we arrived, we saw Grace and Vincent already unpacking their things from Vincent's car.

Grace looked really annoyed while Vincent looked highly amused.

A lot of things must have happened while they were coming here.

Grace saw me and jogged over to me saying, "How was the car ride with Grayson?"

I said, "Probably how you are feeling right now on the car ride with Vincent."

She scowled at me and said, "Don't even mention that. It was pure torture."

I shook my head and smiled at her.

We entered her house and noticed a butler opening the door for us.

A butler!

Oh, his house was huge too. It was twice my house's size and that was saying a lot because my parents were really rich too.

I admired his house, more like mansion while Vincent did the same.

Their butler smiled at us kindly and said, "Hello, miss and mister. My name is John and I am Mr. Grayson and Miss Grace's butler."

I smiled back at him while Vincent shook John's hand.

We went into the house and Grace led me to my room while Grayson led Vincent to his room. This house probably had more than 20 rooms.

Grace opened a door and said it was my room for the rest of the week.

It was beautiful. The room was light blue which is my favorite color and it had a king-sized bed with all sorts of necessaries. It had a full bathroom and a walk in closet. The view outside was of the beach and Grace said it was their 'private' beach. How rich are they?

She told me to unpack and that if I needed her I could find her in her room. She told me it was upstairs.

I started unpacking when she left. When I was done, I changed into something more comfortable.

I opened the door to go to the balcony to look at the beach when I saw someone else on the balcony next to mine.

I looked over and saw Grayson.

He looked at me and said, "Your room is next to mine?"

I nodded and he looked mad.

Does he hate me that much?

I scowled at him and was about to leave when he said, "Stay."

I was shocked because I thought he didn't like me.

We just looked at the beach for a long time when he suddenly said, "I didn't tell Tristan what really happened because it would have hurt his pride. He has always had a big pride and it would have really hurt him. I don't hate him for hating me. I just hate myself for not telling him sooner to not trust Gabriel."

He sighed and when I was about to speak he shook his head and said, "I said my part so stop bugging me."

He left and I looked at his balcony door closing.

I felt like this was going to be a long Thanksgiving break.
