i was sick the entire night, it was absolute torture. to make things worse, i couldn't get my mind off of ethan. i was driving myself crazy, i hated being without him.
i had two notifications on my phone. one was a text from ginger, the other was a text from gray.
i used my thumb to unlock my phone, since i was too lazy to type in my password.
ginger
hey, i just wanted you to
know how much i love you.
sadly, tomorrow is grayson's
day, so i'll see you later
on ❤️
masen
i love you so much more.
i literally have no idea
what i would do without you.
by the way, do you think that the
results will come back negative??
ginger
you still feel sick, babes?
i don't want to scare you,
but there's a high chance of
you being pregnant... we'll
get some tests for you soon.
please relax.
fuck.
i went back to my messages, and tapped on grayson's message.
grayson
i'm really sorry for messaging
you so late. i usually talk to
ethan about these things,
but... you know...
masen
hey, gray. what's up?
is something wrong?
grayson
yeah, everything feels wrong.
do you wanna go on a drive
with me? i really don't wanna be alone.
masen
what happened to tammi?
grayson
we broke up. apparently, she's
pregnant with holden's baby.
WHAT THE FUCK?!?
masen
um, alright. i'll go on
a drive with you.
grayson
thanks, mase. i'll be
there in 5.

grayson had taken me through a drive through, so i could get some fries. he studied me, before turning his attention back towards the road, so he could pull over.
i played around with a fry, before popping it in my mouth. "you miss them both, don't you? tammi and e-tee-wee-tee?"
grayson stole a fry, which made me angry.
"calm down, mase. it's just a fry. um, but yeah, i miss ethan so fucking much. this is the longest amount of time that we've been away from each other. tammi doesn't mean nearly as much to me as e does, but i really did like her. i don't want to be involved in anything that tammi's doing, i have enough going on."
i nodded, and handed him another fry. "i'm really sorry about how i've been acting towards you and ginger lately. i just... i love ethan, i love him so much. this is absolute tor–"
i noticed that grayson was giving me a weird look. there was something strange in his eyes, and i was a little creeped out.
"why are you... why are you looking at me like that?"
grayson leaned in, and i stuffed a few fries into his mouth.
"what the hell, grayson? why would you..." i sighed, and rubbed my temples. "you know what? you're upset, and you're probably feeling super lonely. so am i, but i don't want to kiss you. i just wanted to talk."
he looked so guilty. "i'm so sorry, mase. I don't know what came over me..."
i was starting to drown gray's voice out.
i closed my eyes, and drifted off to sleep.
