Glow Up ~ Dolan Twins

Chapter 18

Ethan's POV

I decided to stay overnight with Grayson just in case something happens. Grayson fell asleep shortly after he promised not to hurt himself, and I had been sitting in the sofa chair beside Gray's bed. I decided to call Andrea and let her know what happened. I feel like Grayson needs to see her, talk to her for a little ya know? I get up off the chair and tip toe out of the room. I shut the door and dial Andrea's number.

On the phone (ethan/ Andrea)
Hello?
Hey Andrea, it's Ethan what're you doing right now?
I was just watching pretty little liars, why?
Do you think you could stop by the hospital?
Uh... why?
Grayson... is hurt, I think he just needs to see someone he cares about right now, other than myself.
What happened?
He uh... fell down the stairs? Yeah, that's right. I just think it'd make him happy if you showed up.
Hm... well, Grayson hates me. He said so himself- I hear her sniffle -he wouldn't care if I showed up. He'd probably just yell at me to leave again...
Andrea he doesn't hate you he was just-
-HE DOESNT WANT ME THERE!
Andrea please come on!

I then hear the line go dead and I sigh. I walk into the room again and notice Grayson had woken up. I walk over and slump into the chair I was previously seated in.

"What was that about?" Gray asks

"Oh nothing, just arguing with mom again, aha..." I say.

"You we're talking to Andrea. I heard you say her name." He says.

"Andrea? Pfffft no....... okay maybe? I wanted to get her to visit." I say and nervously chuckle. His face lights up.

"How long until she gets here?" He says. A bright smile plastered widely upon his face.

"She uh... had homework to do... but she might come tomorrow." I say. It's possible right? His smile quickly fades and he frowns.

"Oh... okay" he says. I rise up and pat his back. He pulls me into a tight hug.

"At least I got my bromieomie here with me." He says and pulls a weak smile onto his face.

"Yeah, brothers for life." I say.

Andrea's POV

I'd been crying most of the day after what happened. So when I was talking to Ethan, I began tearing up at the memory of my argument with Grayson earlier in the day. I hope he's okay. Why do I still care?! He hates me, he always has. This was probably his plan all along. To make me fall for him then to break my heart. He enjoys seeing me in pain. Ethan probably does too. That's probably why he wants me there. You know what? I'm gonna go there to prove to them that they can't hurt me. Not anymore... This is the new Andrea! I can't wait to wipe the smug grins off their faces when I show I'm invulnerable to their actions.

I get up out of my bed and take a shower. Once I finish I go into my closet and chose a comfy outfit. I pull on my black Jake Paul X sweater and a pair of leggings. Funny thing is, I used to be friends with Jake Paul in grade school, never thought he'd become famous. I put on some socks and grab my converse. I step outside and begin walking to the hospital. It's around a 20 minute walk, but I need some time to reminisce right now. I walk around breathing slowly, my walking matching the pace of my breath. I look around and smile at the beauty of the area I live in. After around five minutes it begins to rain.

"Shit, really?! I still have like fifteeen minutes left Mother Nature!" I yell at absolutely nothing. I pull my hood up and quicken my pace. My walk turning to a jog when someone drives up to me.

"Need a ride?" They ask. Without looking at the driver, I reject the offer and continue walking. The rain then begins to escalate into a storm. Thunder rolling and the rain pouring down faster. The driver moves up to me once again.
