"Get up!" Jenny A/N:(random name) shouts hitting me with a pillow. Since I walked out on Grayson two weeks ago, I've been staying at her apartment on a very uncomfortable couch. But hey, it's better than a park bench. "I'm up." I say in a monotone voice. "What the agenda today?" Jenny asks holding out bowl of cereal for me. "Nothing really. I guess I should go get the rest of my things out of the apartment." I say as she flips on the tv. Jenny suddenly looks at me with sympathy. "I can go for you if you want. Just so you don't have to face him."
I let out a sigh. "No it's okay. I should go." I say taking a bite if my cereal. We continue to watch tv and eat cereal. A tradition we've started since I've been staying here. At around 10:30, we turn off the tv and start getting ready for the day. In my case going to get my stuff from now only Grayson's apartment, and then hunting for a new apartment to live in. I put on (outfit above) and put my hair in a quick ponytail before getting in the car, and driving to the all too familiar apartment.
With every step I take, I begin to get more nervous and before I know it, I'm standing right in front of the door. I stand there for a minute or so debating with myself wether it it I should use my key and go in, or knock on the door. I make up my mind, and knock in the door. Seeing as it's not my apartment anymore, it seems like the polite thing to do. I wait a few seconds for the door to open but I get nothing. So I knock again, this time a little louder. This time, the door swings open after only a second to reveal my puffy, red eyed ex-boyfriend. He looks at me shocked for a second before I see tears start to form in his eyes again. "Princess what are you doing here I-I was afraid you weren't coming back." He speaks trying to move closer to me. And as hard as it was, I reject the gesture. "I just came to get the rest of my stuff gray." I say avoiding eye contact with the boy I am still madly in love with. Grayson looks at me with hurt in his eyes before opening the door wider. "O-ok. Go ahead." He looks down and walks in the opposite direction. Obviously wanting to get away from me. I walk upstairs making sure the tears falling from my eyes aren't visible.
After I pack up the remainder of my things, which was only the size of a duffel bag, I walk downstairs slowly trying to take in all the memories I'd made in this apartment. More tears slip out of my eyes as memories come back to me. Am I making the right choice? I start walking towards the door and see Grayson leaning against the kitchen counter with his head in his hands mumbling something I don't understand. Should I say goodbye? Yes. No. Yes. No. Ugh. "Grayson?" He looks up at me a small bit of hope in his eyes. But that look quickly fades as he sees the bag in my hand. "I um I'm leaving now, so." I cross my arms in an awkward manner wanting out of this situation quickly. Grayson suddenly stands up straight and walks towards me. "O-ok. I'm-I'm sorry for what I did to you. So sorry." Grayson starts tearing up at the end of his sentence. I pull him in for one final hug and let him sob into my shoulder. "I'll never stop loving you." He says with his head still in the crook of my neck. At this point, tears are flowing freely from my eyes as well. I place small kisses on Grayson's neck, making him hold me tighter.
I finally pull away from Grayson with the intension that I would never be able to do that again. I-I have to go I have a shift that starts in 15 minutes." I quickly try to dry the tears in my eyes. Grayson hasn't look up since we released from the hug. He simply nods and then walks to the door, opening it for me. "Bye Gray." I say my voice trembling. He doesn't say anything in return but I see a tear fall to the floor and if I stay here a second longer, we'll both be in tears. I walk into the hallways and away from the apartment of the boy I'm madly in love with. As I walk away I hear a door slam and then violent sobs. I sit in my car not moving. What have I done I'm not ready to end this with him.
I run back upstairs and to the apartment I had just recently left. Banging on the door, I hear a loud crash making me bang on the door louder. After I don't get a response, I use the key and opened the door. There Grayson sits around a pile of broken plates. "Gray?" I whisper in a small voice. Grayson quickly stands up acting like nothing happened before. "D-did you forget someth- I cut him off by crashing my lips on his. Grayson quickly responds by putting his arms around my waist and spinning me around with our lips still interlocked. I finally pull away, grasping for air still in Grayson's arms. Grayson pulls me back in giving me a sweet kiss. And then another. And another. Grayson puts me down and I'm immediately back in his arms, in a bone crushing hug. "I thought were weren't coming back to me. I thought I lost you forever." Grayson says. His voice has noticeable relief in it. "I'm sorry Gray. I wasn't thinking straight I just--" "no no no I should be the one apologizing. I hurt you. I hurt my princess." He strokes my cheek where my bruise once was. Grayson turns my head so I am looking at him. "Y/N, I promise I will never hurt you again. Just stay with me. Please." I can see the guilt in Grayson's eyes. Instead of answering Grayson I lean in and kiss him. He instantly kisses back stoking him thumb over my cheek. After we pull away, Grayson gives me to more small kisses and pulls me in to him. I missed this feeling more then I thought. "Come on let's go get your stuff from Jen's house and then," Grayson stares at me dramatically. "We're getting pizza." Grayson walks out the door while I laugh at my one true love. My one and only.
