kiss marry kill | g.d

chapter five

I woke up the next morning next to Blake, wrapped in his arms tightly. Again, nothing romantic. I rolled off the sofa, sitting down on the floor and turning on my phone. I had a few messages, and my heart began to pound when I realised they were from Grayson. Why? I have no clue.

Grayson: morning

Grayson: are you awake?

Adylin: I am now 😂

Grayson: did I wake you?

Adylin: nah, I woke up and then saw these

Grayson: okay, what are your plans for the day?

Adylin: nothing really, Blake spent the night last night so I'll probably do something with him and my sister :)

Grayson: is Blake your boyfriend?

Adylin: I thought you were a fan of me, Bailey?!?

I was obviously kidding, I don't expect him to know that Blake is just my bestfriend right away of course.

Grayson: hahahaha sorryyyy, but is he?

Adylin: No, we grew up together and he's my bestfriend, all of our viewers used to ship us but they know not too now

Grayson: ah, good

I stopped for a second. Good?

Adylin: good? wdym?😂

Grayson: nothing haha

Adylin: Okayy, let's play a game. Everyone is asleep and I'm bored so that's why I'm messaging you rn

Grayson: that's rude

Adylin: you're rude

Grayson: shut up, lets ask questions then

Adylin: okayyyy

Grayson: have you ever called the police? Random question since I had no clue what to ask aha

Adylin: yeah I have

Grayson: on who?😂

I gulped, wanting to tell him but not knowing what he'd think. I don't want him to think I'm some depressed and fragile girl, because I'm not. I'm happy, I'm strong, and I'm safe now. Even though I've only been speaking to him for around a day, I feel like I can trust him. He remembered me this morning when he texted me, so maybe that's a sign that we'll become friends? And I know that I want another friend to talk too. I was about to reply before he messaged again, and I smiled at what he said.

Grayson: you don't have to tell me if you're not comfortable with it, I understand x

Adylin: no I do trust you, its just the only person that knows about this is Blake and I never tell anyone

Grayson: okay, I don't want to pressure you to say anything if you don't want to, Lin

Thinking of him saying Lin made my heart melt, and brought the largest smile to my face.

Adylin: Basically I called the police on my dad a few times... he was abusive to me and my mom

As soon as I sent it I felt a wave of relief come over me, getting that off my chest to someone other than my bestfriend felt great.

Grayson: I'm so sorry, Lin

Adylin: it's okay

Grayson: It's not, you didn't deserve to go through any of that shit

Adylin: It's fine, honestly. Nobody deserves to go through it, but we do... and I've moved on

He didn't text for a another minute, and I waited anxiously for his reply. I never wait around for people to text back, but I did. I don't know why, I just felt like I had too.

Grayson: Lin?

Adylin: Yeah?

Grayson: promise you'll never stop messaging me?

I felt my cheeks turn pink at his message, and he wasn't even here. I smiled at the idea of talking to Grayson even more, and replied instantly. But why does he even want to talk to me?

Adylin: I promise
