Chapter 6

Grayson's POV
We soon arrived to a mall that is near April's house, and we were currently walking around. The car ride went smoothly, we didn't argue at all and we actually laughed at a few things and made small talk. I'm actually really glad that I came up with the idea of that deal because it sure as hell is working.

I don't necessarily hate April and I don't like her either, she's kind of in the middle. I don't hate her like how sometimes I hate Ethan for embarrassing me in front of girls, and I don't like her as much as I like my mom for making me chocolate chip cookies, she's just in the middle, and for me that's a high level. I've never felt something like this towards any girl before.

It usually just starts off with me checking out their body, and if she's hot then I ask for her number, I call her the very next night and go over to have some fun, then I block her number and delete it from my contacts so she can never reach me again.

But April, she's different, and I don't think she will ever let me do anything with her.

"Grayson! Hello, are you in there?" April said while waving her hand in front of my face. "Yeah I'm here, sorry. Now where do you want to go first?" I asked her, because I really don't know where girls like to shop, I don't usually pay attention to those things.

"Oh, I don't need anything I just came along with you, where do you want to go?" She asked while looking up at me, since my figure sort of towered over her.

"You can't be serious. The whole reason I came is because I want to buy you new things and so we can hangout." She looked up at me surprised, I guess me being nice does scare people a little bit.

"Alright, how about this? I'll pick the first store and then you pick the next one and just like that we can keep taking turns?" I admired how she spoke with confidence.

However, underneath all that she's probably hiding something, everyone is. "You know, having you in my life is going to keep me very organized." I laughed along with her, because she clearly found my comments amusing.

"Oh yeah? And how would I keep you organized?" She looked up at me, and for the first time I can actually see her dimples because she's smiling and not just a hint of them while she's talking.

"You would probably end up getting mad at me for taking off my clothes in the middle of our room, or for leaving the toilet seat up. Then you would go tell my mom and I would get into deep shit." This time she laughed way louder and I'm super glad we can actually get along.

Our room. That sounds nice, me and her, sharing a bed, waking up every morning to each others faces, cuddling at night when there is a storm, falling asleep while watching movies.

These are all things I wish to do and yeah they are all sappy and romantic. I might not seem like that type of guy, but sometimes I just wish I can learn to love. But I don't know how.

"So I say we go to Aeropostale first?" She suggested and I nodded and followed her since she's more familiar with this mall then I am. We got there quick considering it was not far down like I thought it would be.

I decided that I'll let her pick out clothes first, then I'll go and take a look. "What do you think of this flannel?" She asked me while holding up a red plaid. "Looks nice, you should try it on, maybe with some shorts and a plain shirt?" She quickly nodded and smiled at my idea, and soon she was looking for a plain shirt like I told her.

I wandered a little further back and found some shelves with a bunch of shorts on them, so I picked out a light denim colour that I thought would look good on her. "Hey April! Come here for a sec." She turned her attention to me, and walked over holding a black shirt.
