The Bad Boy I Once Knew | G. D.

Chapter 23

I got up the next morning before Grayson could, and I decided on making breakfast. I decided on making pancakes, and I made a couple before he woke up.

We didn't do so much last night after our sauce fight, and we basically just cuddled together, enjoying our last few moments with each other. We even had to clean up the huge mess of sauce, and we basically just ate the spaghetti off ourselves cause of the amount of sauce that was on us.

Any ways, back to reality. I woke up this morning feeling sad, of course. Grayson's gunna be leaving very soon, and I'm trying my hardest to stay strong. It's just gunna be so hard not seeing him for the next few months.

Once I finished flipping the last pancake, I put them on two plates. I would make one for Julia, but she actually stayed over Nate's house last night. I'm starting to think that they have some sort of thing going on together with them, which is good cause Julia has found someone that she really likes.

As I was putting both plates on the island, I heard a door close. I put my head up, looking at where the noise had came from. I soon saw a shirtless, half asleep Grayson walk over to me. I smiled instantly once I noticed him, and he did he same. "Good morning baby," I told him.

He smiled even bigger as I said that, and replied saying, "Morning princess." He then sat in the chair in front of the plate of pancakes, and I sat in the chair next to him. We soon started digging into our food, and he said, "You didn't have to make these. I could have gotten up earlier to cook you food."

"I know, but sometimes a girlfriend has to treat their boyfriend at some points," I giggled, and he just laughed. We talked some more as we ate, mostly to get our minds off of how he's leaving. Soon enough, we had finished eating, and decided on getting ready to take him to the airport. I just changed into shorts, a nice random shirt, and matched with my black vans. I then just fixed up my hair in its curly style, and I just put on mascara for makeup. I didn't wanna go full out on it, mainly since I have a feeling I might cry before he leaves.

As I was finishing up, I added some perfume to myself, and even the jewelry Grayson has gotten me some times before. Before we headed out, I grabbed my phone, and car keys. Grayson and I soon started walking out hand in hand to his car in comfortable silence. He decided on having me drive, and he got in the passengers seat right next to me. I started driving out of the garage, and towards him and Ethan's apartment so he can get his bags. Also to pick up some of the rest of our friends to meet at the airport.

By the time Grayson had all of our stuff, Ethan, Julia, and Nate were also piled in the car. I started driving off the airport, realizing I'm minutes away to leaving Grayson. I tried to put all those negative thoughts behind my mind, but it was so hard. But we did blast music and talk about other positive things during the ride, which kinda took my mind off about the bad things of him leaving.

After about a half hour ride, we had finally arrived at the airport. My heart started to beat faster as we did, and I could already feel myself getting that feeling that I might cry. Everyone started talking and walking into the airport, but I still couldn't get those horrible thoughts out of my head.

As we entered the airport, we finally went through everything, and we headed for the boarding area to wait for Grayson's flight to be called. We even found Cameron, Jake, Aaron, and Jack here with us to say goodbye. We all greeted each other and gave each other hugs. "Hey Adriana!" Aaron said, entering me for a hug. I gave all four of them hugs, since I haven't seen them in a pretty long time.

"It's like I haven't seen you in so long!" Cameron exclaimed. "And look, your leaving again so I won't see you again for another pretty long time." We all laughed. We all started talking, and I started talking to Aaron and Jack about the recent trip we took to Paris.
