April's POV
I woke up feeling my exposed skin getting cold which is very odd because there is no one to pull the blanket away from m- wait a minute.

Just now I realized that Grayson and I fell asleep next to each other and he is currently clinging on to my body tightly. His front is firmly pressed up against my back and his arms are wrapped up around me, spooning me.

His grip around my bare stomach is tight, as if he never wants to let go, or as if he doesn't like to sleep alone. I felt his warm breath blow over my neck, sending shivers down my back and I felt the soft skin of his hands stick to my stomach.

For a second I decided to just lay there, not wanting this to ever end. I didn't care that my skin is exposed because my shirt has been pulled up during my sleep, I didn't care about me being cold and wanting my blanket back, I didn't care about how my bed is too small for both me and Grayson to fit, leaving us completely glued to each other.

In fact I liked it. I liked having someone keeping me warm at night, holding me tight like their life depended on it and hugging me, I simply just like having someone there, Grayson or not Grayson, just anyone.

I can most definitely get used to sleeping in his arms, if he'd ever let me again. I mean this could be all an accident, because he is just simply unconscious and unaware of his actions right now.

I felt his body shift behind me and I quickly closed my eyes, pretending to be asleep so he wouldn't move and let go of me. As cliché as that sounds, I never want him to let go. But I wished too soon, because suddenly Grayson removed his hands from around my body, but only to find my self being turned towards him.

As soon as my face met his, he smiled, looking at me through his long lashes. "Morning April." He said, while his voice came out deeper than usual since he just woke up.

Why does this guy have to be so fucking perfect? Why does he have to have perfect hair, nice style, beautiful eyes, a striking smile, a jaw sharper than a knife and now his morning voice is added to the long never ending list.

This guy is making it really hard to hate him. But I made a promise to myself that I will never fall for another guy and Grayson will not make me break that promise.

"April! Hey... You there?" I suddenly snapped out of my thoughts, seeing Grayson waving his hands in front of my face. "Uh yeah right here." I said while laughing slowly. "You just dazed out, right after I said good morning." I smiled at him awkwardly, as he just smiled back in the cutest way possible.

No April he is not cute, stop! "Uh how about I go get started on breakfast?" I stated my words as a question, but I wasn't really asking him because I was getting up before I say something stupid.

But before I have fully gotten up, I was pulled right back down, I'm guessing by Grayson since he is the only other person in my bed right now.

"No... Sleep with me for a little longer please?" He pouted his lips at me, and managed to put a little spark in his eyes, making him hard to say no to, since I fall for cute faces quite easily and that's why I'm an easy target.

"Grayson.... is this part of the deal too?"I asked as I lay back next to him, enjoying the warmth that's radiating off of his perfect body. Ugh there I go again.

"If you want it to be, then I don't mind you know." I looked at him as he smirked at me with a wink. "Ok, but I hope you know that kissing is not included. You're just lucky I'm letting you be anywhere this close to me." I stuck my tongue out at him, hoping this would bother him, but surprisingly it didn't.

"Oh, April you have no idea do you?" He asked, as he looked down at me with an evil grin, making me cringe. "What don't I know?" I felt a lump form in my throat, because Grayson's evil face gets me scared, it means he has a plan.

"We are getting married. You and I both promised Ethan that we would put on a good show, acting as a happy couple, that includes hugging,kissing,cuddling, and me throwing a couple of sexual comments towards you in public, I'm even allowed to squeeze your butt if I want to." He then burst out laughing, but I just looked away and  swallowed hard.

If I'm already calling Grayson nice things in my mind and I'm already falling for his attractiveness, what am going to feel when he kisses me?

"I think we should go make breakfast now." I suggested so I can avoid us talking about kissing each other any further. "Oh wait, I need to ask you something." Once again he pulled me back down, but only to push me even further into him this time, making me get a good smell of his cologne, which is now added to the things I love about him. Wait love??!!

"Uh sure go ahead." I ushered him to continue and ask his question so I can escape all of this already. "So a couple of guys and I are having a sleepover tonight, I was wondering if you wanted to come?" He's not serious right?

"Grayson why would my mom ever let me go to a sleepover at your house, when there are gong to be a lot of other guys around too. I'm a girl, she'll probably think I'll get rapped." I watched as a sad look fell upon his face, making me upset as well.

"Sorry I guess I didn't think it through. But I hope you know that I asked you because I wanted you to get to know my friends and no one can ever lay a finger on you as long as I'm alive, okay?" His face was inches away from mine. "Okay." I whispered quietly.
