"Wake up." I nudged Grayson

Yes since the night he had a concussion, I'd been staying at his house.

After all my mom and sister were out of town so was his.

We both would be lonely, so why not?

Yesterday was our first Thanksgiving without or moms and sisters. So we went to Target and got dishes we both liked that didn't really fit the normal Thanksgiving food status quo. Such as pizza, chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, thin cut french fries, smoothies, ice cream, and cookies.

We pigged out with all of the food we got and it was much better than turkey and cranberry sauce.

"I am up." He grumbled as I opened the blinds to reveal lots of sunlight

I pulled the cover off of his bed "Then why are your eyes closed?"

"Because I'm resting my eyes." He said as I grabbed up to his hands to pull him out of bed

He groaned "You're acting like my mom."

"Well go brush your teeth and do any last minute packing," I said giving him a grin

"Yes, sir." He smirked

Grayson walked into his bathroom and kept the door opened as he started brushing his teeth. I felt generous and made his bed up again. I was wearing a Pittsburgh sweatshirt that I've owned for a while, Lululemon shorts, and some black Adidas shoes.

I grabbed my suitcase and Grayson's suitcase. "Grayson is your suit in here?"

He walked out while brushing his teeth and opened the suitcase to show the bag his suit was in. He also showed me his tie and shoes. I zipped the bag back up as he walked to back to his bathroom. When I saw he was finished I stood in the doorway and looked at him. He had on a black t-shirt that had our school's logo, black and white Adidas pants, and black Adidas.

"Can I have your car keys? Why do we have the same shoes on?" I asked holding out my hand

He nodded as he opened one of the drawers in his bathroom and pulled out a key that had a Land Rover logo on it.

Today was the day that we were driving to Miami for Grayson's Dad's wedding.

"Oh, you're letting me drive the car?" I asked taking the keys

Grayson nodded "Gotta drive in style. Come on I'll help you put the suitcases in the trunk."

We packed up the car and then started on our mini roadtrip.

"You do have your contacts in, right?" Grayson asked putting on his seat belt

I nodded "Yes. I'll drive within the speed limit and I'll follow the GPS. What do you want to eat?"

"Chick fill a," Grayson exclaimed without a second thought

We went through the Chick Fill A drive through and got breakfast.

Grayson fall asleep after he ate, which was expected.

The radio was turned on and I had time to think while I drove. Grayson and I did talk more about the kiss and how we felt. We were still just friends, though. But I haven't told anyone that, though. Especially Madison, because I knew what she wanted me to say and think about. But the thing was, I wasn't sure if I even wanted to think like that.


Grayson woke up when we were about ten minutes away from whatever hotel or place his dad got us.

"Are you sure this is the right place?" I asked as we pulled into a condo that was on the beach
