Lacey's P.O.V.

After the movie, Grayson and I decided to go to our spot. It was special before, but now that we're supposed to get married, it's that much better.

"What are you thinking about?"

"When we first met."

"One of the best days of my life."

"Mine too."

*Flashback*

I just turned seventeen and my parents are already trying to marry me off. I mean I'm still a minor. They should really just let me live my life. I'm tired of them deciding my every move. It's really frustrating.

I hopped in my car and drove to my favorite spot. There's a river, some tulips, and daffodils. It's the prettiest thing I've ever seen.

Getting out of my car, I walk to the river. As I get closer, I notice that somebody's sitting in my usual spot. I've never seen him before. He looks to be about 21 or so.

"Excuse me. Who are you and why are you sitting in my spot?"

He stands up and then turns to face me. "Sorry. I'm Grayson Michaels. I was sitting there because it gives you the best view of the whole river."

"I agree. I'm Lacey Stevens. What are you doing here?"

"It's where I come to think. What about you?"

"This is my refuge. When I need to get away from home, this is where I come."

"So, what brings you here today?"

Before I answer, I sit down next to where he was and pat the spot beside me. He immediately sits.

"I turned seventeen a few days ago. My parents decided that it was time I got married. I told them I was too young and left."

"You're a minor. Why are your parents trying to basically get rid of you?"

"Damned if I know. I'm just tired of them telling me how to live my life. Ever since I was a little girl, they thought I needed them to make my every decision. It's so f**king annoying. I just wish for once they'd let me make my own decisions."

"Wow. That's gotta be rough."

"It is. What brings you here today?"

"My situation is kind of like yours. Except my parents decided to make me grow up early. I've had to take care of myself since I was about six. Today, they told me I had to move to London to take over their business there. I quit my job and moved out of their house. This was the only place I could think of coming. I didn't have anywhere else to go."

"I don't even know what to say."

"There's not anything to be said."

"So, you don't have anywhere you can go? No other family?"

"Nope. Both my parents are only children. I'm an only child. All my grandparents are dead. I don't have anywhere to go."

"I wish there was something I could do."

"Sweet pea, I'm 20 years old. I can handle myself. I'll be fine."

"I can't accept that. My dad is looking for someone to help with personal accounts and financial business at his label company. You should apply."

"I just might do that."

That's how I became friends with Grayson.

*Present*

"Ready to go, sweet pea?"

"Yeah, but let's go back to your place. I'm not really in the mood for going home."

"Alright."

We head back to my car. Before I get in, I give Grayson a kiss that promises there's more to come.

As we make our way to his house, I shoot Janie a text letting her know I won't be coming home tonight. She quickly replies with a winkie face.

We get to Grayson's house and he seems intent on taking his time. I've had enough of his taking his sweet ass time. I grab his hand and yank him through the door. I pull him down the hall to his room.

"Lacey, slow down."

"No. You were taking too long."

Before he can say anything, I pull him into a kiss. This kiss has all my emotions. Appreciation, anger, and frustration.

I quickly undo the buttons on his shirt and slide it off his shoulders. I go to take off my shirt but he stops me.

"Are you sure you want to do this? I don't have a condom."

"It's fine. I'm on the pill. Plus, I've been annually checked since I was 18. I'm safe. And yes, I want to do this."

"Me too."

Before I can think, my shirt is pulled over my head and I'm pushed back on the bed. "Sweet pea, you don't know how long I've wanted to do this."

"I think I do."

In a matter of seconds, we're both naked. "I want you to be absolutely sure, Lace. Once I start, I won't be able to stop."

"I wasn't asking you to."

He slowly enters me and I feel my heart swell. I've been waiting for this since I first met him.

All of a sudden I feel Grayson's lips on my neck. They then begin making their way down towards my breasts. He takes my left nipple in his mouth and begins sucking. A moan escapes my lips. This only causes him to suck harder. After he's done with that one, he gives the same treatment to my other one.

After he's done pleasuring my nipples, he begins to pump into me. I fist my hands in his hair from the pleasure. All too soon, I feel my climax coming.

"Grayson...I'm gonna...come!"

"Come."

A couple of seconds later, I reach my climax. "Grayson!"

Shortly after my climax, Grayson comes undone.  "Lacey!"

Our breaths are ragged, and our bodies are sweaty. Grayson pulls out of me and rolls onto his side. He pulls me into his embrace and whispers in my ear. "That was beyond amazing."

"Yeah."

He kisses the top of my head. "Go to sleep, sweet pea. You need to rest."

After a minute, I feel my eyelids getting heavy. I close my eyes and drift off to sleep. There's a big smile on my fans because I know I made the right decision in choosing Grayson. I just hope he feels the same way.
