eth: "turn your phone off!" grayson yelled throwing a pillow at me. i groaned and grabbed my phone, answering it sleepily.

"hello?" i said before yawning.

"i'm sorry i didn't mean to wake you," y/n's voice came through the speaker. i got out of the bed, going to the bathroom and shutting the door.

i wiped the sleep out of my eyes, "what's wrong? are you okay? is the baby okay?" i asked sitting on the counter, all these negative thoughts rushing to my mind.

"yeah, we're fine. i just can't fall asleep and i forgot you're three hours ahead," she said and i furrowed my eyebrows.

"why can't you sleep?"

she hummed quietly, "i don't know, i think maybe i just need you by my side. i mean he's not awake, he's asleep. it's just me," she said and i yawned. "you're tired, go back to sleep. i'll just talk to you later," she said and i shook my head.

"no it's fine," i mumbled slowly, my eyes getting heavier.

"but you're tired-"

"c'mon talk," i sighed, part of me wanting to talk to her, another part of me wanting to sleep.

she sighed, "i don't know what to say right now," she mumbled.

i wiped my hand over my face, "then why did you call?" i asked, my tone coming off a bit more harsh then expected. i knew she instantly felt like it was her fault when she apologized and hung up, declining my calls. 

gray: i had been trying to call y/n all day but she wasn't answering and i was starting to freak out. i decided it would be best to call my mom and see if they were together. "hey ma," i said running a hand through my hair.

"hey grayson! how's tour?" she said in her usual cheerful voice.

"tour is fun, it's great seeing all the fans, but i was actually calling because i was wondering if you have seen y/n at all today? i've been trying to call her for the past three hours and she isn't answering," i explained.

"don't worry, she just left the house. she was walking by the pool and dropped her phone in it," she said and i let out a sigh of relief. "i'll have her call you when it's fixed," she said and i thanked her as the call ended.

i waited an hour for y/n to get her phone fixed when she called me, "baby," i heard her voice through the speaker causing me to smile. "i heard you've been calling me for about four hours," she said and i laughed slightly.

"you had me worried, i was ready to get on a plane and fly to you," i said and i heard some shuffling.

she let out a soft laugh, "i guess i should've waited to call you then."

i nodded, "i'm sure you would love for me to be there," i said and she hummed.

"i would absolutely love for you to be here. just a three more days!" she said and i smiled, continuing to talk to her.
