"oh, look who decided to show up."

fleur rolls her eyes, stuffing multiple fries in her face at once. i turn to see what she's looking at and see grayson walking into school with his entire posse. we surprisingly hadn't talked since the pool incident and i was partially unsure about what he may say to me now.

i watch as fleur ducks down unexpectedly and i hear footsteps behind me, indicating that the grayson dolan was near. the once empty table is now filled from end to end with grayson's jock friends. he smiles when he sees me, his hand instantly resting on my thigh as he sits his stuff down beside me.

"i got my retainer fixed."

he whispers this into my ear before briefly smiling and i feel my face heat at how cute and snugly he looks. he looks so unlike his regular self with his retainer in- he looks friendlier. i look down in my lap quietly, trying not to look embarrassed.

"so, the pool thing. how's everyone taking it?"

he mutters this into my ear and caresses my back lightly, i turn to him- not knowing whether or not i should tell him that i am deeply affected by it. i am supposed to be giving off hardcore vibes, so seeming childish wouldn't help. i shrug lightly and he nods pecking my lips slowly.

"p.d.a."

fleur whispers rather loudly and i laugh, grayson replies by rolling his eyes and kissing me again. i looked back at her and her eyes were suddenly sad. it was as if she had just realized something- he actually liked me, a lot.

she looked between us two briefly, wondering how exactly i would break his heart and the truth is- i didn't know exactly how either.

grayson with his retainer is adorable.
