I kinda spaced out once he actually told me how he felt.

I knew it was coming when he started acting funny towards me, the other day. I hope he knows that this is going to change the way Grayson looks at him.

"Okay, why did you think that I would look at you differently?"

"I don't know because you're with my best friend so, I just thought you would."

"Aaron, would you just shut up and kiss me already?"

I shook my head. "No but, you know who is going to look at you differently?"

"I know, Grayson will."

"Yeah and you know who's gonna tell him the truth?"

"You, maybe?"

"Aaron."

"Why are you making me do it?"

"Because he's your best friend. The more that you're honest, the less it makes you look like an awful friend."

"Are you really okay with me having feelings towards you?"

"I really don't think you have to worry about me, right now. You should be worried about Grayson and what you're going to say to him. Of course I'm okay with it, you can't control how you feel towards anyone. Just know that he's gonna be watching your every move, saying that because he's already jealous as it is now."

"Whats to be jealous of?"

"Are you kidding me? Now, he's gonna have an actual reason to be jealous, he's going to tell me that he has a "competition" now."

"Competition? What?" He shook his head. "I don't want to have any competition over any girl. He has you. He doesn't have to worry about anything."

"She didn't tell you about the kiss that we shared, just 2 days before you showed up, did she?"

"Tell that to him, not me."

"I will gladly tell him. When are we doing this, now or later?"

"The sooner the better."

On the way back to the twin's place, neither of us spoken. It's not that things were becoming awkward, I think it was because he was nervous to tell Grayson the truth.

I know that he enjoys doing music with someone else and I know that he doesn't want his feelings to get in the way of that.

When we walked through the door, I was greeted by Grayson with a big, warm hug.

"So, how was it?"

I smiled, pulling away from him. "Grayson, we need to talk."

When I said we, I meant Aaron.

"Whats up?" He said with a concerned face.

"Would you like to begin, Aaron?"

"Promise not to throw any punches?"

"Oh, would you stop being a girl and just man up."

"Will someone please explain to me, whats going on?" He said standing up, looking at the both of us.

"Well, damn if I didn't know any better, he sounds like he's about to confess his feelings for Sarah." Ethan said interrupting everyone, while laughing softly.

"Like, that would ever happen."

Grayson said laughing until he looked at Aaron, who wasn't laugh. Better yet, he didn't have any emotions written on his face.

Once he saw that, he stopped laughing.

"You've got to be kidding me!"

"Gray, calm down." I said getting in front of him before he got any close to Aaron.

"Sarah, move."

"No, I wont because I know the moment I do that, you're gonna do something that you'll regret. I"m not gonna sit here and let you do that, either." I pushed on his chest, making him back up. "You can't control how you feel about someone, ow would you feel if it was Ethan that had feelings for me?"

"Like, that would ever happen." E said.

"For fucks sake Ethan, shut up."

"I don't want you recording with him anymore."

"No, you don't get to make that choice. It's either I record with him or not all."

"Sarah, its okay. Don't argue with him, its not worth it."

"You keep out of this, Carpenter."

"Hey, this is between you and I."

"But, he-"

"No." I took a deep breath before I spoke again. "Listen, I don't care how he feels about me, nor do I care how anyone else feels about me. I told you that I wasn't going anywhere, you have me. You told me that you were happy for me, you offered to help me, with talking to him about recording, now you're telling me that I can't record with him? You sure do no how to ruin someones happiness."

"Babe, what are you talking about? I am so happy for you but, how am I suppose to trust him?"

"You're not dating him, Grayson! You're dating me, you're with me, not him. You are suppose to have trust in me, if you can't trust me then I can't be in a relationship with someone that can't put trust into me."

"I do trust you, I don't want to loose you again, or ever again."

"I'm done, its over."

"You. are. not. going. to. lose. me." I said starting to get annoyed. "Do you not understand that? I love you and I want to be with you, not him or anyone else. I told you that before I left this morning. Hell, I even told you when shit went down when I met Matt."

"Babe, I believe you. I just don't want to come home and see-"

"Do not finish that damn sentence," I shot my head to the other two that were still in the room. "Ethan, Aaron, give me a minute alone with Grayson."

"Make sure you use-"

"Ethan, I will remove your nuts with my hand."

"Ouch." He said holding his crotch area. "Just thinking of that makes the hairs on my arm stand."

"Then shut it and get out."

Once they left, I looked at Grayson once more.

"Grayson, I love you, not him or anyone else. There isn't anyone else in this world that I would rather be with. Why can't you see that?"

"Sarah, you're my first long, real relationship that I've had."

"Aw," I smiled. "really?"

"Really."

"I love you, Dolan."

"I love you too, O' Connor."

He kissed the top of my forehead, before walking outside to talk to Aaron. I could of sworn that Aaron flinched when he turned around only to see Grayson standing behind him.

I walked outside to make sure that no hands were going to be tossed.

Instead I heard Grayson apologize, which made me smile even more.
