"Leave me alone, Grayson."

"I heard from a lot of people that you left the party with my twin brother." he says, "A little hypocritical, isn't it?"

"We walked me home from the party, not that it's any of your business."

"Why would he walk you home? You live down the street." he says and I roll my eyes,

"Because I was drunk and he was being sweet. At least one Dolan brother is." I say and open the door when he puts his hand on it to shut it. "Sophia is inside, if you need someone to make out with."

"Sky, look at me." he says and I look at him,

"What?"

"I want you." he says and leans in. I push him away,

"You don't get me!" I say, "Find some other girl to screw with, you had no problem doing that when we were dating."

"Sky..."

"Just leave me the hell alone, Grayson!" I say, getting into the car and quickly driving away. Once I'm at a red light, I quickly call Ethan,

"Hey, Sky, what's up?"

"I guess Grayson knows you took me home last night, I told him nothing happened. So if he asks you, don't let him know we made out." I say,

"Will do." he says, "How are you feeling?"

"I'm absolutely one hundred percent great." I respond,

"Okay...could I come over in an hour or so? I really need to talk to you about something..." he sighs,

"Yeah, sure. Is it serious?" I ask,

"Somewhat." he responds, "I'll see you later."

"Okay, bye." I hang up and go through the Starbucks drive thru. After getting my drink, I head back home. Hopefully when Ethan comes no one will question why he's here.

I quickly go back to my room and scroll through apps on my phone, waiting for Ethan to get here. Now that I'm thinking about it, what could he want to talk about? It's somewhat serious? It could be really serious, just because Ethan isn't one to take anything seriously.

I get a text saying he's here and I rush downstairs before anyone else can open the door. "Hey, we can go up to my room." I say and he nods, following me up and I shut the door behind us. 

"So, Grayson came here?" he asks and I nod, "Why?"

"I guess people told him I left the party with you and he came and asked me."

"Why didn't he just ask me?" He asks,

"Um, I dunno." I lie, Grayson clearly came here because he wanted to do something with me. "I don't even know him anymore. He's a totally different person, he's such a dick now."

"Tell me about it." Ethan sighs, "But that's actually not what I needed to talk about..." he says and I nod,

"Okay, what is it?" I ask and he sighs, rubbing his hands on his thighs and tapping his foot, "You okay?"

"I'm really nervous..." he says, "So I'm just going to say it. I really like you, Skylar."

"Ethan..."

"Like seeing you with Grayson in the past few weeks drove me crazy. And that it took every ounce of me not to continue what we were doing last night..." he says, "I'm sorry, I just- I had to tell you that..."
