"Hello friend." I buried my face in my pillow when I felt the sheets being ripped off of me. "Rosie I'm freezing-" I was cut off when I felt someone close to my ear whisper, "not Rosie." My eyes shot open when I heard the deep males voice. The room was soon filled with Grayson's obnoxious laughter. I aimed my pillow at his head & felt satisfaction once my target was met. I buried my face back into my bed to avoid the light Grayson turned on.

"Get up lazy we gotta go to school." Great. School.

"I'm not going to you can leave now." Grayson tried prying me off the bed but it was useless. After a few attempts the room was quiet. Too quiet. My eyes flew open when I felt two arms underneath my body as they lifted up. I buried my face in Grayson's chest to shield my eyes from the bright light. "Grayson put me down!" I felt his chest vibrate with laughter, followed by a weird feeling in my stomach.

What the hell?

"Are you sure you want me to put you down?" His voice sounded challenging so I looked down & I suddenly realized how tall Grayson was. "I swear if you drop me Grayson!" I wrapped my arms tighter around Grayson's neck as his obnoxious laughter came back. Once he let me down I went to the bathroom to change into my black cardigan, mustard colored top, blue jeans, & black combat boots. Once I finished getting ready I walked into my room to see Grayson going through my memory box.

My fucking memory box.

I snatched it out of his hand causing him to jump. "Don't go through my shit." He put his hands up in surrender & laid back on my bed where he played with the bear my dad got me for my 4th birthday. "What are you doing here anyways?" Grayson stood on his feet until he was facing me and said, "I'm gonna give you a ride." I shrugged and walked over to my vanity to spray some perfume when I heard my phone buzz on my bed. I walked over and felt my face drop when I read the words, "where have you been? I haven't heard from you in forever- Noah." I sighed and tossed my phone on my bed, but before I could Grayson had snatched it out of my hand. "Who are you talking to?" I tried reaching for my phone back but it was no use since our height difference is an advantage to him.

"It's none of your business, give it back!" Once Grayson unlocked my phone me and Noah's conversation had popped up. His entire mood seemed to fall once his eyes were frozen on the screen. "You're still talking to this guy, after I told you not to?" Excuse me? I'm sure he did not just speak to me like that. It's not like it was any of his business who I talked to. "I'm sorry, you think I'm going to listen to you because you don't like the guy? I don't like Madison but-" my words were cut off when Grayson's hand gently held my cheek. We stood there for a second, just looking into each other's eyes. A mix of green & brown.

Grayson's face wore a look that screamed pity. But what for? Within a few seconds his hand dropped back to his side as he said, "just trust me okay?" Still lost in the warm feeling where Grayson's hand laid on my cheek, I nodded my head like a love struck loser. In a low voice Grayson said, "Come on, let's get going." He grabbed hold of my wrist and lead me out the house. Somehow when we got in the car, our hands were still interlocked.

We were currently walking, still hand in hand, towards the school. What the hell are we doing? Isn't he worried someone would see? I was right because once we came into view of the school he let go of my hand. I tried pushing that hurt feeling to the back of my throat because I had no right to be hurt. Grayson is my friend. I can see Jesse and Maggie in the corner of my eye, in what seems to be a pretty heated argument. I could tell Maggie was angry/nervous because she did this thing with her feet where they would cross over each other like she had to pee when ever she was in trouble or something. Jesse looked no different, except he looked more nervous.

I knew better than to intrude on them, so I turned towards Grayson to ask if he could come with me to the library, but before I could he said, "I have to go meet with my brother & a couple friends, but I can give you a ride after school." I nodded and then it was just me. I decided to go to the library to catch up on some homework that I failed to do last night. The halls were slightly barren, with only the noises from teachers in their classrooms & students running to their first period. Since I had a free period I was able to do homework. Before I could enter the library I felt a tight grip on my wrist that was pulling me underneath the stairs.

"Noah what are you-" before I could even comprehend what was going on I was engulfed by Noah's lips on mine. My eyes were open the entire time. I could feel Noah tense up when I didn't kiss him back, it didn't feel right. Suddenly Grayson's face popped into my head. Those crazy hazely brown eyes & goofy laugh was all I thought about. That's when I stared to kiss Noah back. His lips were dry & he tastes like alcohol mixed with Sprite. "I don't want you being around Grayson, you're mine baby."

This wasn't how I wanted my first kiss to go at all.
