Forever & Always (Completed)

45- Just Like Old Times... Kind Of

The rest of the school day went fine, until fifth block, when I saw Greyson again. “Hey, we still hanging out later?” He asked me. 

“Yeah, if you want to.” I told him.

“I do, is Mel coming?” He asked me. Before in study hall Amelia texted me that she had to go straight home after school today.

“She said she couldn’t make it.” I explained to him. The bell rang to go home, so Greyson and I walked down the hall together to my locker. We met up with Riley half way down the way. “Hey Ri, want to hang out with Greyson and I?” I asked her, hoping for a yes.

“Uh, yeah sure. I can for a little while, I’ve got dance at five.” She told us.

“Awesome, where do you ladies want to go?” Greyson asked us, as I opened my locker. Riley left to go to her locker, so she could get her backpack and jacket. I probably should’ve brought one, it was kind of chilly out today.

“How about we just hang out at the park?” I told him, and he nodded in agreement.

“So where are we going?” Riley asked, returning from her locker, in a jacket.

“Skylar suggested the park, is that alright with you?” He asked her, she nodded. “Cool, lets get going then!” I shut my locker and we all walked out of the school.

“It’s pretty cold out, Skye, don’t you have a jacket?” Riley asked me.

“I’m not that cold, I’ll be alright.” I told her, “for a while” I mumbled. Greyson stepped a little closer to me after that statement, giving me warmth.

“Actually, since its so cold out, why don’t we go back to Skylar’s and see the twins?” Greyson suggested.

“I think I like that better.” I told him. We all walked back to my house and joked along the way. We were telling old jokes from elementary school and just having fun. “I miss us all hanging out like this.” 

“Me too, Skye, me too.” Greyson said, smiling at me. When we walked into my house, everyone greeted my mom, and vice versa. “Nice to see you again Mrs. Grey.”

“You too Greyson, it’s been too long.” My mom responded, and we all walked up to the twins’ room.

“This is Hazel,” I said, handing her to Greyson. “And this is Cyrus,” I said, handing him to Riley.

“Oh my gosh Skye, they’re so cute!” Riley said, making funny faces at Cyrus.

“She’s going to grow up and be just like you.” Greyson told me, smiling at my sister. “Beautiful.” He said, a little bit quieter, but I heard him. I didn’t call him out on it though, I just smiled.

I checked my phone, but no calls or texts from Niall, only one from Amelia.

“hey, sorry I couldn’t be there, how’s it going with Greyson?” she asked, in the group chat, though. Great.

Layla picked up on the text before I could, “who’s Greyson?”

“just an old friend, don’t worry.” I texted back.

When I looked up from my phone, Riley was getting her backpack on. “Sorry Skye, but I’ve got to go to dance now.” She said, then walked out the door to the car.

“Looks like its just us now.” Greyson told me, putting down my sister in her crib. I nodded with a nervous smile. Why hasn’t Niall texted me all day? He usually sends me a good morning text. Just then, my mom called for us.

“Skye, Grey. Come downstairs.” She yelled for us. I opened the door and I stuck my head out. “Greyson’s mom is here to pick him up.” She told us. Greyson grabbed his jacket and backpack and stood up.

“Goodbye Skylar, see you in school tomorrow.” He told me, but instead of walking out the door, he planted a kiss on my lips, and walked out the door before I could do anything about it.
