I tap my foot anxiously and take a bite of the dinner I had ordered. This vacation is going to complete hell and it's the second day. Ever since I heard the conversation it's all I can think about. Grayson and I are just getting along so well, it's like we're back to what we were and I don't want to lose him again. He's everything I know, he's my everything, sorry for the soppiness but I don't know what I would do without him.

I sigh and put my fork down, my dad looking at me, "Not hungry."

"Need a walk?" he asks and I look at him, nodding. We get up and go walk around the resort. Our walks mean we just talk about stuff, stuff I didn't know how to tell my mom. Don't get me wrong, I love her but she's no help in certain situations. My dad isn't either sometimes but he listens to my points and understands me. "What's going on?"

"I love Grayson."

"Really? Two years, maybe too soon..." he jokes and I look at him,

"Seriously," I sigh, "I've fallen too hard for him I don't think I'm taking everything he's done into consideration..."

"Like what?"

"I don't know, I'm too scared to ask. I've overheard him and Ethan talking, it just sounds like Grayson's done what he did with Sophia more than once." I respond and he nods, "I dunno, what do you think of him?"

"To be completely honest, first time you brought him home I had a weird feeling about him. Over the years he grew on me and during the whole recent scandal, I guess I realized I should've stuck with my gut feeling." he says and I nod, "And so should you."

"My gut feeling isn't very clear right now..." I sigh and he chuckles,

"Why don't you talk to him, before jumping to any conclusions." he says and I nod, "See, I can have a good idea once."

"Thanks, dad." I smile and he nods, "Im hungry now."

I take a deep breath and raise my hand to knock on their door, then bringing my hand back down and pulling at my fingers. "Okay, you're fine. Stop overreacting, I'm sure it's nothing." I murmur to myself. I knock on the door,

"Ethan, I'm busy!" Grayson mutters and I furrow my eyebrows. Busy with what, we're on vacation.

"Grayson, it's Skylar!" I say and he immediately opens the door.

"Hey, babe." he stands against the frame, holding the door as closed as he can with him standing there, "What's going on?"

"I just needed to talk..." I walk past him and he nods, shutting the door and I sit on the bed, "Okay, I've been thinking a lot and I just, I was wondering i--" I pause when I hear rattling in the closet. I look at Grayson confused, walking over and opening it to see a random girl, her hair a mess, standing there. I look back at Grayson and he stands there,

"Sky..."

"You're unbelievable." I scoff and storm past him, slamming the hotel room door and running down to the elevator. I run my hand through my hair and wait impatiently for the elevator to come, let's go, today!

It finally opens and I step on, pressing the 3 on the number pad and waiting for it to go down, no one else is here why is this thing so slow?

"Skylar!" Grayson exclaims and I shake my head as he runs towards me. The doors are finally shutting, so I don't move. But he plays football and he's a fast runner, so he caught up in time.
