It's been 5 months since I was able to escape from the terrible life I had. Since then, I've spent every moment of my life trying to forget everything that happened and move on. So far, that hasn't been going too well. Ever since what happened, I've had these terrible nightmares almost every single night. I barely sleep at night, but I somehow find a way to manage with it.

Through all of my misery though, there is one source of happiness in my life: Grayson. I met Grayson 3 months ago, just when I thought that there was no hope for me in ever becoming happy again.

He reminded me that there was always hope, and he always made sure I was happy, well as happy as I could get. He has been my bestest friend through my worse times. He doesn't even know what happened, and he doesn't ever push me to tell him, for which I am grateful, but he always stays by my side.

"Y/N!" He yells my name when he sees me and he instantly walks over to hug me. I smile when I smell his familiar scent. I feel so comfortable in his arms, safe even.

The county fair has been going on this week, and Grayson invited me to come with him today. Lately, I've been spending more time with him, and I've felt much more relaxed, and at peace.

We go around to a couple of rides, which seem more like children's rides, but it's still fun being here with Grayson. Grayson tries to convince me to go onto the ferris wheel with him, but I refuse to since I have a small fear of heights. After getting on most of the rides, we decide to go the food court and have a snack.

"I've had a lot of fun with you today." Grayson tells me with a smile after taking a bite out of his corn dog. "Me too." I simply reply. "Hey, after we're done eating, we should go to the carnival games. I bet I could beat you in every single one of them." Grayson says with a cocky smile. "Oh really?" I say raising my eyebrows. "I actually think I'd win most of them." I say back to him, returning his cocky smile. "Okay, how about this, if I win, you have to go on the ferris wheel with me, and if you win, I'll invite you out to dinner." He says. "Deal." I smile.

After finishing our food, Grayson and I start making our way towards the carnival games. "You better start getting yourself prepared for our ride on the ferris wheel." Grayson smirks at me. "More like you should be getting your wallet ready to pay for my dinner." I smile back at him before we stand in front of our first game.

The first game is the ring toss. This shouldn't be too hard. "I'll go first." Grayson tells me as he hands the man some money. We each get three shots, and of course he makes them all.

Grayson smirks at me as the man hands him a stuffed teddy bear. "You're up." He tells me. I smile nervously at him. I'm definitely not beating him.

I get ready to throw my first bean bag and I'm 100% sure it'll go in, but my suspicion fails me as it bounces off the side. I can hear Grayson trying to hold in his laugh, and as soon as I look over at him he tries his hardest to put on a neutral expression.

I pick up the second bean bag and toss it into the air a couple of times before throwing it towards the ring. To my surprise, it goes straight in. "Woo!" I scream and high five Grayson.

After making that good shot, I feel confident for this next shot. I prepare myself to throw it, and when I do, it misses by a mile. I am embarrassed as we start to walk away and I can hear Grayson trying not to laugh again.

"Stop laughing at me!" I whine. This causes Grayson to burst into laughter. I can't help but laugh along with him. "Aww, here I know what'll cheer you up." He smiles before pulling out the stuffed bear he won earlier and handing it to me.

"Thank you!" I smile before hugging the bear. "I might have to take it back if you give it more attention than you give me." He teases trying to look sad. I can't help but smile at him. "Aww don't start getting jealous now." I say and hug him.

We go around to multiple games, and I end up winning a couple, but Grayson beat me in most of them. I guess we're headed to the ferris wheel.

"Guess where we're going" Grayson asks acting like a little kid. "The ferris wheel." I groan as we walk up to the line. "Hey, it's fine if you don't wanna get on." Grayson tells me with a worried expression. "No it's fine, I'll get on." We are at the front of the line now. Oh no. "C'mon, it's our turn!" Grayson smiles before taking my hand and leading me to our seat.

This won't be so bad, it's not that high, and Grayson is here. I keep telling myself this to not be so nervous. We slowly start moving up, and I start feeling more uncomfortable.

As we reach the top I start to panic inside. I guess Grayson saw my worried expression since he instantly moved closer to me. I lean into him a little and he puts his arm around me and smiles. I suddenly don't feel as nervous anymore and I build the courage to look down and take in the view once we're sitting at the very top.

"Woah, it looks amazing." I say looking down. "It does doesn't it? See I told you it wouldn't be so bad."

"Yeah, I guess it isn't." It's silent for a moment before Grayson speaks up. "Hey, uh..I was wondering if um..you don't have to say yes, but maybe...I don't know, never mind, just forget about it." What was that?

"Grayson, tell me." I push for him to go on. "Well, I was wondering if maybe you'd like to be my girlfriend?" He asks scratching the back of his neck. What?

When I take a while to respond, Grayson's face falls and he mutters, "It's fine, I shouldn't have even asked." He says the last part mostly to himself.

The surprise is evident in his face as I press my lips against his. He quickly recovers and kisses me back. I feel fireworks in my stomach and I feel better than I've felt in a while. When we pull away he has the biggest smile on his face. "Of course I'll be your girlfriend." I smile. Grayson smiles even more before pulling me in for another kiss.

(I hope you enjoyed it! Ok, so this imagine turned out to be longer than I expected, so it'll have more than one part. Expect part two later today ;))
