"Westen Clark?! Really Y/N, you're going out with Westen Clark?!" My best friend Grayson yells as we walk home from school. Him slightly trailing behind me. "What's the matter with Weston Clark?" I ask trying to defend the boy I had a small crush on, while talking to the boy I was in love with. "He's -he's--I don't know I just don't like the idea of you two going out together." We enter the front door of my house, throw our bags on the floor, and head to the kitchen for a after school snack. A routine we've had since second grade. "Well sorry, but it's a little too late now." I say considering that the date was tonight. "Besides, I really like him gray." Grayson quickly looks down trying to avoid eye contact. I could tell something was bothering Grayson by the way he was biting the inside of his cheek. As I was about to ask what was bothering him so much, he starts talking. "Let's study, yea?" He wipes the sad look off of his face, walking to grab our back packs.
3rd person POV

"Can I borrow your highlight-- Grayson stops taking when he realizes Y/N isn't paying attention to him, but rather smiling at her phone, with small giggles escaping her lips. Anger makes its way through Grayson's body. Not at Y/N, but at himself. If he had only told her how he felt before now, she wouldn't be going out with Westen Clark tonight. She would be with him, and he would be with the girl he's been head over heels for since 2nd grade. At least, he hoped. But in Grayson's mind, he couldn't compete with Westen Clark. And that thought made him sick to his stomach. "Hey, um I gotta head home." Grayson says shoving his school books into his back pack. Y/N's head shoots up. "What? Why? It's only 3:30" she says putting her phone down. "Yea but Ethan accidentally put his biology notebook in my bag and he needs it." Grayson stands up ready to leave, quite proud of himself for the convincing lie. "Gray come on just stay." Y/N whines leaning back in her chair. "Why don't you just call Westen?" Grayson snaps at her, walking out the door. "Is that what this is about?" Y/N raises her voice, but Grayson was gone before she even finished her sentence.
Y/N's P.O.V

"So I'll see you at school tomorrow?" Westen asks scratching the back of his head. "Uh yea, sure." I say trying my hardest not to scream at the kid. That was
Quite possibly the worst date anyone could experience. He picked me up, 1 hour late, took me to a sports bar where he ate chicken wings like a pig and ignored me for the NFL play-offs. And lastly, when we agreed on splitting the meal, which is already a no-no in my book, I somehow ended up paying for half of his. It also didn't help my mood I was thinking about Grayson said the whole time. As I was going to open the front door of my house, Westen grabs my arm and turns me around. "I can't wait for our next date Y/N." he says with a smirk on his face. Yea right. He starts leaning in towards my lips, before I can do anything his lips are already on mine, in a completely lust-full, non passionate kiss. Before, the kiss gets too intense, I pull away and open my door. "I'll see ya Tomorrow Wes." I say closing the door so I don't have to deal with him anymore. The moment I step inside, the first thing I see is Grayson with a hurt expression on his face. "Gray what are you doing he--" "you-you kissed him?" Grayson says in a whisper. The same sad expression still on his face.
"Grayson that's not im--" Grayson interrupts me, his expression suddenly changes from sad to angry. "What does he have that I don't? Why is Westen Clark so special?" He clenches his fist and starts yelling is he jealous? "Grayson, what are you say--" "I could treat you so much better then he could." He moves closer to me, so close I could hear his heart beat. He slowly puts his arms around my waist, making my heart beat quicken and my cheeks blush. He moves one hand to my cheek, the other moving down to my hip. "I'm gonna kiss you now." Grayson whispers locking his lips with mine. My knees go weak as we continue to kiss in my entryway. This kiss was noticeably different from the one I shared with Westen. For starters, I actually felt a connection with Grayson. Is that good or bad?
We're interrupted by the front door opening, making us pull apart quickly. My big brother walks through the door, looking at us weirdly. "I'll see you tomorrow Y/N. thanks for letting me borrow your history notes." Grayson says walking out the front door. "What was that?" My brother points back at the door. I shake my head soaring out in to space. "I don't even know." I mumble and run upstairs, prepared to have zero sleep tonight.
____________________________________
The next day, I walk into school only relaying on 4 hours of sleep. Like I had guessed, I barely got any sleep last night thinking about Grayson. We kissed. He kissed me. I kissed him back. I have to see him today. On one hand I was ecstatic. I had kissed the boy I've liked since second grade. But, Grayson's my best friend, and I didn't want to lose that connection. But I also really, really liked Grayson. And now the chances of him liking me back are higher then I ever thought they would be. I walk into first period, which I thankfully don't have with Grayson. As first period goes through, the same thoughts about Grayson keep playing in my head, making it impossible to focus. The bell rings for second period and I walk painfully slow,considering I had the class with Grayson sitting right next to me. I look down watching my feet hit the floor, not looking forward to the next hour and a half.
"Y/N!" I hear Grayson's voice shout from down the hall. Before I can say anything, Grayson grabs my arm and pulls me into the janitors closet. Grayson looks at me in the eyes and grab onto my hands gently. "I literally think I'm in love with you." Grayson says before smashing his lips on mine once again. We continue to kiss until the two minute bell rings, making me pull away. "Gray we have to go to class." I say trying to pull his arm out of the closet. "Wait!" Grayson says pulling me back with a wide smile in his face, making me smile. "Say you'll go out with me first." Grayson says, the same sweet smile on his face. A smirk appears on my face. "Admit you were jealous of Westen first, then I'll agree with going out with you." Grayson looks down and mumbles something I can't understand. "I'm sorry what was that?" I say restraining my laugh. "I, Grayson Dolan, was extremely jealous of Westen Clark because he got to take you out last night and I didn't." Grayson says looking into my eyes. "Great, because I really wanted to go on that date with you." I kiss his cheek, then walk out of the closet hurrying g to class. I quickly come to a stop, rushing back to the closet to see Grayson still standing in there blushing like crazy. "And by the way, I literally think I'm in love with you too."
