Scarlette's POV

"Wait does is that a good thing or a bad thing?" Grayson asked as we all walked out of the Police Station.

"We are going to try and adopt you Scarlette." Ms. Dolan answered and a smile creeped quickly onto my face.

"Wait are you being serious?" I asked excitedly.

"Completely serious." Ms. Dolan answered and I hugged her tightly.

"Did you hear that Gray?" I asked jumping up and down like a little girl in a candy shop.

"Yeah I heard." he giggled but he seemed to be upset. I waited until we got back to the house to ask him if he was okay.

"Hey Gray?" I asked as soon as we walked in the door.

"Yes?" he asked in response as he kicked off his shoes.

"Can I talk to you upstairs?" I asked and he nodded his head.

"Sure." Grayson answered and we both walked upstairs. "What's up?" he asked as soon as I closed the door behind us.

"Were you okay back at the station?" I asked sitting down on his bed.

"Yeah why?" Gray answered with a small giggle.

"Well you didn't seem super excited when your mom said I was getting adopted." I responded hanging my head low.

"Scarlette I am excited there's just one thing I keep thinking of." he stated, grabbing my hands in his.

I cocked my eyebrow before asking, "And what would that be?"

"Well do you remember when we were watching The Fosters and Callie and Brandon could no longer be together because Callie finally got adopted? Well doesn't that go for us too? Like I know that The Fosters is just a t.v. show but I'm pretty sure it goes for real life situations too." Grayson answered making me sort of confused but at the same time making me understand.

"Well we could talk to your mom," I suggested but when I saw Grayson's expression I quickly changed my response to, "Or we could look it up real quick." 

can adopted children have a sexual relationship

"Grayson!" I whispered hitting his shoulder with the back of my hand.

"What? How else am I supposed to put it?" he asked and I just shook my head and let him look through the links.

"No they can't be intimate." Grayson said and my heart sank.

"Well we can just hide it right?" I suggested knowing that I wouldn't get a yes or no answer.

"We can try but it's going to be really hard." Grayson answered which made me smile.

Still smirking I replied, "It's worth it though." 

"We will figure it out." Grayson smiled pulling me onto his lap.

He looked into my eyes then pressed his perfectly plump lips onto mine. I tangled my fingers in his hair and slightly tugged as he kissed down my neck. I could feel him nibbling on my neck and it took everything in me to not let out some soft moans.

"Hey Gray I need to talk to you for a second." Ms. Dolan called from outside the door.

I moved my forehead against his and smiled before throwing my leg over the side of him and standing up.

"Yes ma'am?" Grayson asked as soon as he opened the door.

"I know this seems a little soon but are you two going back to school tomorrow?" she asked and my heart skipped a beat and I could tell that Grayson's did too.

"Um I'm not sure. Why?" Grayson asked looking back towards me to make sure that was the right thing to say.

"Well the two of you haven't been to school in a very long time and I figured out that you had been skipping school even before you left. I think it would be best if you either went back tomorrow or on Monday." Ms. Dolan answered before walking back downstairs.

"I can't go back." Grayson said closing and locking the door.

"What?" I asked for reassurance.

"I can't do it. Especially since Carson thinks I raped you. If I go back I'm not just going to get a tug on my shirt and a few punches to the face." Grayson answered messing with the strings on his sweatpants.

"What if I stay with you all day?" I suggested not really knowing if I even wanted to go back.

"Scarlette let's be real, you wont stay with me as soon as you see your friends." Grayson replied rolling his eyes with a soft smile.

"Wow." I said rolling my eyes and laughing through my nose. 

You know when someone makes a really stupid joke or annoys you and you push air through your nose? Yeah that's what I just did. I just can't believe that he just said that.

"Scarlette please don't get mad. I'm just saying that because that's what usually happens." Grayson said grabbing my hand and twirling me around to face him.

"I'm sorry. I'm not just saying that about me over reacting Grayson. All the bullshit I put you through. You didn't deserve it, any of it. I don't even understand why I did everything to you. I think it's because I didn't want to like you. It's not even that I didn't want to like you, I just didn't want to lose my best friend. I know that's a stupid reason to be a dick to you but that's the truth." I said and I could tell that he was listening not just hearing what I was saying.

As I was talking he was looking me straight in the eyes almost the entire time. The only time we didn't make eye contact was when he was messing with the ends of my hair. He didn't smile, he didn't frown, he didn't even sigh, no expression at all.

"Thank you." Grayson said looking up from my hair to my eyes.

"Excuse me?" I asked tilting my head slightly to the right.

"Thank you. Ya know, for explaining yourself. I love you." he said wrapping his arms around my waist and leaning in to kiss me.

"Are you not mad at me?" I asked with a small giggle as I pulled away from the kiss.

"Ya know I would be, well at least annoyed but right now? Right now I just want to be here with you. I want our lips together, our bodies together, just us, together." Grayson answered with a smile.

I bit my lip before replying, "I love you too."

I smashed my lips onto his causing him to fall on his back with me on top. We both laughed but continued to kiss.
