The Bad Boy I Once Knew | G. D.

Chapter 22

It's been a couple days ever since we've gotten back to LA. It's all back to the same normal thing, which means I have to catch up on my studies for college. That's basically all I've been doing since we've gotten back, and also the twins had to get back to work, well mainly Grayson.

He's been at work ever since we've gotten back home to LA, and he's been working longer hours. I did get to see him a few times and we did talk on the phone, but not as much as we used to. I think it's only like this cause of the part he got for the big movie. Also he's gunna have to be leaving for Chicago soon, but I have no idea when. That's what's kinda scaring me the most, cause I have no idea when he's gunna leave me.

I've also been trying to contact him over these past few days, but he hasn't picked up most of them. I understand why, but it sucks not hearing from someone, especially when that someone is the person you love the most.

It was currently late at night, and I was reading some article for school on my laptop. It was boring me, and all I wanted to do was cuddle with Grayson right now. I was debating if I should call him, and all my thoughts about it got interrupted by a knock on the door. I got up from the couch, opening up the door, which revealed the only person I wanted to be with the most. "Grayson!" I squealed.

We both smiled, and he entered me in for a hug. I gladly did, and I jumped into his arms. I wrapped my legs around his torso, with my arms around. I couldn't stop smiling, and I kept planting his neck with kisses. I soon heard him close the door, and move towards the couch. "Okay, okay," I heard him laugh. I then pulled away from him, which had me laying on the couch, with him hovering over me. We both sat up, facing each other. "I had no idea you were coming," I told him.

"I know, that's why I surprised you," he laughed, and so did I.

"But why did you?" I asked him. He sighed. That mostly means something might turn out bad...

"I have some news on the movie," he said. "It's about me leaving..."

"What about it?" I asked him, a bit eagerly. He sighed again.

"I really don't wanna tell you this cause of how you might react... But... I'm leaving tomorrow..." he started. "Tomorrow morning." I looked into his worried eyes, then towards the ground.

I didn't know what to feel about him leaving... If I should feel sad, mad, or happy for him. "Oh," was all I said. I was speechless at this moment.

"I don't wanna leave tomorrow, I really don't. I never even knew I was leaving on a short notice," he added. "I'm really sorry baby."

"It's okay, I understand," I tried to assure. I even felt those tears behind my eyes, but I tried to become strong, and keep it all in at this moment. I do understand that this is a big and important movie, but that's pretty unfair to have him leave first thing the next day.

"Are you feeling okay? I'm really sorry I had to tell you so late..." he said scratching the back of his neck.

"I'm feeling great," I told him, trying to provide a smile. "It's okay if you told me last minute, I know why. And don't worry about me. This is an important opportunity for you, so you have to go tomorrow."

"It's just the thing is that I didn't mean for it to happen to tell you about it, cause they told me last minute too," he said. "But tonight, it's just gunna be just us," he said with a smirk.

"Stay over night!" I said a bit excited. "Julia's not coming home till later since she's out with Nate, and I'm getting bored with all this work for school."

"I was planning on staying," he chuckled. He then leaned towards me, connecting our lips. Oh much I'm gunna miss them for the next couple months...

He kissed me rough, but yet so passionately. Our lips moved in sync, and I even felt his tongue slip in. I suddenly felt myself falling down onto the couch, and him hovering over me, still kissing me. It was getting even more heated by the second, and I soon felt his hands on my waist, tugging at my sweatshirt. I then felt him trying to pull my sweatshirt over me, knowing where he's trying to lead to.

I pulled away from him, pulling my sweatshirt back down. "How about we save the rest till you get back?" I said with a smirk. He smirked back, biting his lip, making me scream inside. "I guess we can," he laughed, and I even saw a smirk appear on his face.

We then stood up, and I said, "Are you hungry?"

"A little, are you?" he asked.

"Yeah, I was gunna making spaghetti if you wanna eat that," I giggled.

"Yes! Let's make it together!" he said excitedly, and it caused me to laugh at how cute he was. I'm gunna miss him so much over the next few months...

I grabbed his hand, leading him to the kitchen. I pulled out a pan, filling it with water. I then set the stove, so the water was boiling. "I got the spaghetti!" he said waving the box of uncooked spaghetti. I started laughing again at his cuteness.

"Good, pour it in the bowl," I laughed.

"How about you do that, I'll get the sauce," he said with a slight smirk. I gave him a bit of confused look as I grabbed the box out of his hands, and I watched him go over to the fridge to get the red sauce. I started taking the uncooked spaghetti thins out of the box, and breaking them in half. I then started putting them in the bowl, and stirring it around with a spoon.

As I was stirring around the spaghetti, I started to think about Grayson leaving. Also about how much I'm gunna alone with him gone... My thoughts about that all got interrupted when I felt a big chunk of sauce splatter on the side of my neck, and even in my ear.

I froze what I was doing, trying to comprehend what just happened. I turned around, seeing Grayson trying to hold in his laughs. "You had no idea," he started bursting out into laughter.

"Your so gunna get it!" I said trying to sound serious, but I ended up letting out some laughter. I ran over to the other side of the counter, and grabbed the jar of red sauce. I grabbed a handful of it, and instantly shot it at towards Grayson. He missed, and it got on the side of his face. "What the heck," he laughed. I started bursting out laughing because of what just happened.

I then saw Grayson going to the fridge, grabbing another jar of red sauce and opening it. "I guess this is war!" he said before throwing a handful at my chest. We both laughed, and I threw another handful of red sauce at his face.

It kept going on like that, and we were both filled with red sauce. Grayson was hugging me from behind, but mainly holding onto me so he can get me back with red sauce. He then poured some red sauce in my hair, and smeared it all over my face. At this point, I was laughing, and so was he. He soon let me go, and we turned towards each other, holding each other's hand. "We ran out of red sauce," I told him laughing.

"It's okay, I'll just eat the spaghetti off of you then," he laughed.

"Ah the spaghetti!" I said, running towards the stove. I totally forgot it was cooking all this time. I turned off the stove, and poured it all in a bowl.

"That was fun," Grayson said, who was standing right next to me. "I'm gunna miss that when I'm away." I looked up towards him, and he looked a bit sad.

"Don't worry about that. Just focus on the movie. Before you know it, you'll be back here in LA, and we can even have a bigger sauce fight," I smirked, but I ended up laughing a little. He started laughing too, and he planted a kiss on the top of my head.

"Ugh, I love you."
