You & I | one shot's

#14 Hannah & Grayson Dolan {E}

sighing i entered the school building. for the first time ever i wasn't as unmotivated as on other days, because today we had a daytrip. our class - hallelujah - was picked as a cultural class or something and we were allowed to run riot in the artsy and literary area.

yay!

"sixteen, seventeen, eighteen - guys, please hold still for a second!" our teacher wasn't capable of counting us all and making sure we were complete, just as always.

well, this day already started amazing.

i just stayed in the crowd in the hopes of not being overlooked. i looked for my friends as i felt something touch my arm. intuitively i turned into that direction in which i thought it'd come from and looked into a pair of beaming brown eyes.

"sorry, that wasn't on purpose," murmured the to the eyes belonging mouth and pulled away from the stare since he's been jostled from behind. i put myself together as well and stumbled into the bus, the entrance was right beside me.

i didn't even notice how everyone had pushed past me into the bus and taken me with them. when i, as the least, stepped into the bus and looked around i obviously found no free seat.

"back there, hannah," my teacher rebuked me and pointed, past me, to the back half of the bus. i just nodded and wiggled along the tight aisle. in the process i reached past my best friend and shot her a meaningful glance. next to her sat nia, another friend of ours with whom she's been spending a lot of time recently. she just looked at me apologetically and i went further. i had no clue which seat the teacher meant but I just -

oh.

i stopped dead in my tracks and saw the brown pair of eyes again. it was a boy with short but fluffy, dark to caramel-brown hair and a very pointy chin. his body wasn't built bad at all - and he was the only one with a free seat next to him.

"so we meet again," he said and his voice gave me chills on my whole body. he laughed shortly and the corners of my mouth went upwards immediately.

"i-is this seat taken? actually, i mean, available. is it available? because it seems like there's no other seat and -" i babbled embarassingly and stopped as he took me by my wrist and pulled me next to him.

my breathing hitched at his sudden action and i sat there a bit bewildered.

"i am grayson," he introduced himself and looked at me for a good amount of time.

"hannah," i returned and stared at him.

he looks damn fine, that's for sure...

once again he flashed me his perfect, white teeth as he laughed and looked out of the window.

"so, which class are you in?"

the whole ride long we talked. it was a nice, comfortable atmosphere around us, even if we wouldn't talk at all. still he made me laugh quite often and the ride felt way shorter than it was.

i learned that he; grayson, was one grade above me and just recently moved here. he has a twin brother; ethan, who got ill and couldn't come with today. that's why the seat next to him was empty, otherwise ethan would've sat there. he told me that he never had a lot of friends and people assumed he and his twin were cocky and conceited right away. in the past they got bullied as well. my heart started to tear up at this. grayson was such a nice and sweet guy right from the start that i couldn't imagine anyone thinking bad about him or his brother.

i told him how sorry i was and he just changed the topic. i guessed he didn't want to talk about it so i went along. he explained that he and ethan liked to record videos for fun since they were little kids. they had a youtube channel once but received so much hate from it that they deleted it again and only kept the videos to themselves.
