A Soft Devil (COMPLETED)

Chapter 54

I gave myself a mental smile at how well everything went. As they kept talking after that question, I realized Matt is truly a changed person. He's a better man who's owning up to all the bad he's done. He still has a few things to work on, but the progress is my main focus.

"Your bother's funny man," Grayson said once he got in the car.

"Yea he's real goofy."

"I need to tell you something, well ask you something really," Grayson said as we were driving back to the city.

"Go on."

"I mean it's your decision, but do you wanna move in with me? Like today?"

My smile grew even bigger. He always knew how to make me smile.

"I would love to."

"Well I say we go to your apartment and pack up everything."

"I like the sound of that."

Once we got all the boxes from an old wine store, we went to my apartment that I haven't been in in over a month. It felt shitty going back on there and smelling the same smells that make me gag. Seeing Roger in a deep slumber that made me roll my eyes. I couldn't wait to move out of this shithole.

I took the key from under the rug and opened the door. I sighed. The little apartment that Kayla and I first brought. There were so many memories that I'll miss, but so many more I can start at Grayson's much nicer apartment.

Kayla's stuff was already gone, so there wasn't too much to pack up. Before we started doing that, I went in my old room to change. It was the same as I left it. The Pac poster was still hanging. My bed was still against the wall with the bed stand right next to it. The desk was still against the wall as it was the last bit of furniture I could fit into the room. As usual, my clothes were scattered everywhere.

I laughed at that before Grayson could come in my room.

"Shit," he said as he was looking around the room.

"Hey it is not that messy," I said as I took off my sweater.

"Nah it's filthy," he corrected himself.

I hit him with my sweater making him laugh. He laid on my bed as I took off my jeans next.

"So this is your room?"

"Was," I corrected him.

I leaned back against my desk to look at him on my bed. I tilted my head towards the Pac poster.

"That's my mans, and he lookin down on you."

He looked up at Pac to see that he was in fact looking down on him. We both laughed.

"Good thing I got Biggie to fallback on."

"So disrespectful."

"What're you gonna do bout it?" He asked in a playful tone.

I went up to him to try to hit him, but he was quicker than me. He sat up and took a hold of my wrists before I could do anything. He was laughing at my effort to try to do something.
