Heart Like Stone (Greyson Chance)

Chapter 52

I walked back up to Greyson’s room, pill bottle and a glass of water in my hands. He was laying on his back, with his head turned. Looking at his phone in his hands.
    “Who called Grey?” I asked and walked over to him.
    “Manger,” Alli answered for him. “touring stuff.”
    “Thought so..” I mumbled.
    Greyson turned his head to look at me.
    “Sit up, and take this.” I held out the glass. He slowly sat up and took the water. I opened the bottle and put two pills in his hand. Waiting for him to take them.
    “Well. Go on.”
    “I don’t want to.” He grumbled. His voice was barley a whisper.
    “Please? It’ll help.” I frowned.
    He took them and finished the water, giving me back the glass.
    “Thank You.” I smiled. Greyson got up, and walked to his bed, getting under all the blankets, with his head under his pillow. “Its too bright.” He called.
    I looked at everyone else, Christian got up and switched the light off.

    Greyson fell asleep ten minutes later. The rest of us were watching TV with the volume down low, and talking.

    I didn’t talk much. I was worried. He needed to get away from everything for a bit. Its too much. The door opened, I must of forgotten to lock it. Lauren poked her head through.
    “How is he?” She asked quietly.
    “Why the hell do you care?” I glared at her.
    “Just because I hate you, Rachel, doesn’t mean I don’t love him.” She nodded her head to Greyson.
    “He’s fine. Or at least I hope. I’m not sure now, that we were trying to get things under control, and YOU show up. You know, he’s still under a watch for his coma? He could slip back into it any second now. He’s under too much stress Lauren. Do you not understand?! Do I have to draw you a picture?! You coming in here, planing to ruin everything I have EVER had with that boy, is making things WORSE.” I stopped talking, breathing hard. Lauren looked hurt...her eyes started watering. I hadn’t meant to be so mean...but I couldn’t help it. She stepped in the room, and walked right in front of me.

    “I came back. Because I wanted to see him. Ok? I miss him, I love him. You honestly have no idea, how much it hurts, seeing him with you. Rachel, you think your life is so PERFECT. And even if its not, I’m JEALOUS of you ok? “
    “My life is FAR from perfect Lauren. Greyson Chance and those wonderful people sitting on the couch now are the ONLY good things that have happened to me. My life is NOT perfect. You already know, I’m pregnant. I’m a teenager, my mother wouldn’t of been happy. My father would of already come after Greyson. Speaking of my mom, maybe you didn’t know, she’s DEAD, Lauren. My dad too. I can’t stand seeing little girls at the park with their parents, because I NEVER GOT THAT. I had to live with my Aunt. She treated me like DURT. My life is NOT perfect.”
Now we were both crying.
    “I don’t care if your pregnant. Its GREYSON’S. Thats all I’ve ever wanted! To be with him-”
    “Then Why did you do what you did to him?” I glared. She had no answer. “If you love him so much...then just let go. Let him be happy. With me.”
    “But I-I can’t..” She stuttered.
    “You have to.”
    “I wont.” She looked me dead in the eyes, and left.
