"Gray!" I yelled walking up the steps. 

No reply.

"Grayson!" I said walking up to his door. 

No reply again. 

"If you don't answer I'm coming in!" I yelled. 

Still no reply.

I opened to door to see him laying on his bed staring at the ceiling with earbuds in. I could hear the depressing music from where I was standing. 

He looked up, "What do you want?" he replied ripping his earbuds out and sounding annoyed, what was he annoyed for?

"Don't be a dick to me cause you're sad," I said and he rolled his eyes, "Now let's go we're going to the mall," Gray hadn't been out of our house, except for the backyard since July when the 'incident' occurred. 

"No," he replied. Grayson hadn't said more than one sentence at a time since July. I was annoyed but at the same time worried. I hadn't ever seen Gray this upset.

"Listen, get your ass out of bed, it's been a month, you have to get over it," and since you decided you don't want to make videos anymore we're going back to school,"

In July Grayson decided he was done making videos and he just wouldn't budge. He can be so stubborn sometimes. Apparently, he was empty inside. I think he is overreacting, she's just a girl.

It all started when Grayson and his now ex-girlfriend Sofia went to Punta Cana, they were supposed to be there for a week but the trip was cut short at five days.

From what Gray was able to get out, he was getting him and Sofia drinks from the bar and when he came back she was gone. He looked for her all around the beach and resort until he found her at a different bar making out with some guy that she had apparently been talking to for a while. At first, she tried to cover it up saying he kissed her but thankfully Grayson knew better.

He was completely heartbroken and wouldn't talk or eat for a week. He didn't take it very lightly and she moved on like the relationship meant nothing to her.

After that Gray didn't want to talk to anyone, we stopped making videos, had to sell our place in L.A. and now we are going back to school because we have nothing else to do. Even though no one knows about this except for a few people, eventually, all of our fans will find out.

''Fine." He said and I heard his footsteps upstairs. He finally came downstairs and he actually looked decent and he didn't smell like B.O., he must have showered.

"Wow look at you, you're clean,"

He scoffed in reply.

"Ethan." my mom warned me. She had been babying him through this entire thing which meant I wasn't allowed to joke with him since she thought I was being mean. 

"Sorry," I mumbled. Grabbing my keys we walked out of the door. Grayson followed behind me pouting and as I was getting into the car someone drove by and I waved since it was, and I quote, 'the neighborly thing to do,' according to my mom. She had raised us to be nice and kind so that's what I was, nice and kind. Grayson on the other hand was being a grump. 

Despite everything I've been saying, I was actually proud of Gray for finally getting out of the house but it was probably because he knew mom would make him go to school so he thought he might as well. Whatever his reason was I was happy for him because I hated seeing him like this. 

"So what store are we going to?" Gray asked.

"Well, I was thinking we could go to the mall..." I trailed off

"Are you kidding me, that's literally the last place I want to go," Gray complained.

You can call mom it was her idea," I said calmly

"Fine, I will." He said pulling out his phone. He dialed my mom's number and waited for her to answer.

"Mom?" he paused "Did you tell Ethan to take me to the mall?" he waited for an answer. He sighed, "Ughhh." and he hung up.

"I told you so." I laughed

He just huffed as we continued on the ride.
