A Piece of My Heart

Chapter three (picture of Grayson)

"Are you sure you want to go alone?" Kylie asks me for the fifth time while I make coffee and put it in a to-go cup.

"Yes, I'm sure. I'll be fine though, don't worry and I'll be back tonight so I won't be gone too long." I say reassuring her once again.

"I don't know... Maybe I should just give Grayson a call and tell him to go with you..." She says taking out her phone and starting to type.

"Kylie," I say sternly and she looks up. I soften my face and laugh a little, "I'll be okay, I promise. and I'll be back before you know it."

"Ughh okay fine," she throws her arms around me and hugs me tight, "But hey, you be careful on those roads!" she says and I laugh a little again as I grab my purse with my keys and my coffee.

"I will," I say to her and I can hear my moms voice in mine when I say that. I miss her so much...

"Love you!" she yells as I walk out the door.

"Love you too Ky. I'll be home soon! I yell as I close the door. I hop in my car and grab my phone and turn on the GPS. I set it to Santa Barbara and put the key in the ignition and take off. This was going to be a painful journey.

Grayson's POV

"Yo Kylie, I'm hear!" I yell as I shut the front door.

"In here," I hear her say. I walk over to her living room where she's sitting on the couch scrolling threw something on her phone.

"Where's Theo?" I ask as I sit down on one of the other couches.

"He's working," she says still looking at her phone.

"Can you put your fucking phone down?!"

"Sorry! God damn just making sure Hayden's okay!" she says throwing her hands in the air.

"Oh... Well is she?" I ask, "Okay, I mean?"

"Yeah she's alright she said she just made it to the hospital and it won't be long until she can be let in to identify the bodies."

"Kylie, can I ask you something? It's about Hayden."

"Hmm?" she says still concentrated on her stupid phone.

"What would you say if I told you that I might actually like her? her head snapped up so fast I thought she broke her neck. She looked at me and it almost seemed like she was angry.

"Grayson," she says sternly, "There is no way that's fucking happening. I told you before. And it's illegal anyway even if you wanted it to happen plus you'd just use her. Yeah, no not happening." she says going back to her phone.

"I wouldn't use her! And isn't she turning eighteen in a couple of weeks? We could wait until her birthday to be together and plus it's not a problem unless we get caught."

So, what are you gonna do then Grayson?" she says angrily. "Are you gonna sneak her into your apartment to have secret dates and stay locked up until she's at the right age?! And even if you did you guys are still what? 6 years apart?!!" she yells at me getting up off the couching and getting up in my face.

"It's actually only 5! And so what? Look Kylie she's different from the other girls okay. I think that we might actually work out un like the other girls that I've fucked with!"

"No Grayson, I don't trust you with my cousin! You're just going to hurt her like the rest of your stupid bitches, and I know you too well. "You'd just cheat on her and then dump her ass right af--
