I chuck my town panties and bra in the wash, I'll bin them later, I have no time. Looking in the drawer, I find a pair of burgundy underwear and slip them on. Staring in the mirror, I look closely at myself. "Fuck!" I whisper forcefully, seeing that Ethan had left marks down my body. I need to hide them. I put on a translucent dressing gown, hoping he wouldn't notice. I hear Grayson's voice faintly in the distance and I open the door, ready to approach him. While walking down the corridor I turn round to see Ethan open the door, fixing his hair, still in just his sweatpants. I bite my lip unintentionally and he looks at me, staring up and down at me and lifts his eyebrows. I turn around quickly and saunter down the hall. Act normal, I tell myself. I sit down at the table, facing opposite Ethan as usual. "I got In-N-Out" Grayson said, walking in and putting it on the table. I put one leg up, placing one foot on the chair to get comfortable. I put a fry in my mouth and pick up my phone.
For some reason I couldn't stop staring at Ethan. He was talking to Grayson but all I could focus on was the little things, like how he would play with his hair a lot or clench his jaw when listening to Gray. As I was sipping on my coke, Grayson put his hand on my leg, making me jump. "You've been staring at Ethan for the past 10 minutes without saying anything. Are you okay?" He asks. Confused, I stare at Ethan in the eyes and face Grayson. "Hmm?" I say, still not really in the room. I grab my collar, pulling it slightly up, making sure he couldn't see it. His brows furrow, grabbing my hand and moving it off the material. He hooked his finger on the collar and pulled it down slightly. His eyes widen. I pull back defensively. "What are you doing?" I ask. "I didn't do that.." He said, a puzzled look showering his face. "Uh.. Yes you did." I chuckle nervously. "I think I would remember Helena, I never kiss you on the right side of your neck." he says flatly. I turn to look at Ethan, my eyes narrowing. He stares back at me, a slight smile on his face. "Well, you did." I say assertively, still eyeing Ethan.
I quickly put my drink down, and stand up, heading for the bedroom. "Where are you going?" Grayson asks, standing up to follow me. "I need.. to lie down." I say quietly. I can feel the whole room start to spin. As I exit , everything goes dark and the next thing I hear is Grayson and Ethan saying my name. I slowly open my eyes to find myself in Grayson's arms, moving towards the bedroom. Everything is distant, like time was moving slowly. He lay me on the bed, still supporting my head. "Babe.. are you okay?" he asks, concerned. "Its.. too.. hot.." I say weakly. He stands up to open the balcony door and returns, ready to take off my dressing gown. I hesitate, knowing he would see the marks Ethan left on me. But by the time I try and stop him, it was taken off. I close my eyes, not being able to look at him. I could feel myself drifting to sleep and before I lost consciousness, I heard him whisper in my ear "I'm going to the warehouse, I'll be back later." He knew I was too weak to talk about it now so he just left the room. Things couldn't get any worse.
(Grayson's POV)
I knew something had been going on behind my back. She had started being more distant with me but I tried to ignore it. I know I couldn't talk about it now because she was too weak. God I felt like such an idiot. I didn't want to think about it but to know that it could possibly be my brother made my blood boil. When I find out, I'm going to kill whoever they were. She never talked to E, but recently there was something that made me think that she was fucking him behind my back. I headed for the door but before I left I turned to see Ethan sat on the couch, his head in his hands. He never felt any remorse about her, why is he acting like this now? Just another thing to throw me off. "Hey, I'm going out" I say. "Make sure to check up on her." It was 7pm, If what i'm planning doesn't fail, I should be done in less than hour. I leave, getting in the truck. As I drive closer and closer to my destination, I start putting the pieces together. My anger grows. It HAS to be Ethan. I arrive and get out of the car, slamming it closed and lock it. But before I find out for myself, I need to make sure. I walk up to the door and ring the doorbell. After maybe 3 minutes of movement and noises from inside, the door swings open. "Hey" I say. "Grayson?" She says, surprised to see me. "What are you doing here?" she asks. "I need to talk to you about Helena." I reply. She puts her back to the door and stretches her out arm out to inside. "Come on in." I step inside. It's time to find out the truth.
