Can't he just leave me alone. I obviously don't want to be bothered. I don't want to hurt or offend him but I don't need this right now. At least not yet. Sure he's very attractive and sweet but I can't.
I find myself a seat on the bus and sit, but to have Grayson who decided to sit next to me.
"Sorry, all the seats were taken" he claims
I look up over the seat to find tons of empty seats.
"So ugh what are you doing friday night?" He asks while looking down into his hands and then looking up to me with his beautiful, beautiful eyes and smile.
"Sorry, like I said I uh just got out of a thing and can't really be in another thing right now" I say as I watch his smile fade and his eyes loose their glow.
"Oh, I uh, I understand" Grayson says with a frown growing on his face.
"Can we at least be friends?" He questions me
"Sure, I can do that" I smile lightly back.
His frown turns into a smile as he says alright in return.
The bus comes to my corner, I say goodbye and I stand up to walk about of the seat. I felt the touch of Grayson's hand on my waist as he helps me out of the bus seat. I try not to think back to my last relationship but images appear In my mind. Not good ones by any chance either. I give him a half smile and walk off.
He ends up walking off the bus too but to go straight as I turn. I guess he lives by me. I watch him as he walks. His head turns to look my way. I quickly move my head back to looking forward.
I get home and run straight up to my room. I lay on my bed and think about what just happened. I thought I agreed with myself on how I was going to handle guys now. I just let it slip. "I let it slip" I say to over and over again.
An hour as passed and I still haven't started my homework. I pulled my history book out of my book bag and started my homework. I hate history.
Hours have passed. I'm laying in my bed on my phone watching law and order svu on Netflix. I look at the time and it's already 11:00. I turn my phone off and doze off to sleep.
I wake up to the sound of my alarm buzzing. I rub my eyes as I moan. I hate school. Its 6:30 and I get up out of bed and quickly get dressed in a pair of black leggings and a burgundy purple shirt with a pair of my black and white nikes. I eat a quick breakfast and walk out the door to the bus stop.
I see Grayson sitting on the bench. "Since when do you take the bus?" I question him. "Only sometimes".
"Oh"
"why are you so quiet?" He asked me
"I don't know, I guess that's just how I am"
"you just seem so reserved. Like you can't trust anyone." He states
"Hard past" I say back
"Oh, uh I'm sorry. Do you want to talk about it?"he asks me with a sweet smile he has.
"Uh no um it's not very easy for me to talk about it" I say holding back tears.

I don't know what's up with her but I need to find out what it is. There's something she isn't telling me.
The bus pulls up and we walk on. Sitting in the row together again. The whole way I can't stop thinking about what she's hiding.
"Do you have a twin?" She asks, breaking the silence.
"why do you think that?" I ask with a small laugh.
"Because I've seen a kid who looks just like you at school."
"haha yeah I do. His name is Ethan."
"Oh okay. Just wanna make sure I'm not delusional." She says with the cute laugh she has.
