I ran through Grayson's large house searching high and low for him.

Where could this boy be?!

We were currently playing hide and seek (because we're kids) and he's winning...

I've been looking for him for 20 minutes and I'm starting to consider if I should just let him hide while I take a nap.

"Boo" he shouted jumping out from behind his bed and scaring me half to death.

"OH M'GOSH" I yelled covering my mouth in fear and then laughing once I realized it was only Grayson.

"I'm sorry Baby, I didn't mean to scare you" he said laughing as he walked over to give me a hug.

I turned away and crossed my arms pretending to be mad, but the truth is... I was actually blushing due to his new nick name for me.

"I'm sowyyyy" he wined, wrapping his arms tightly around my body from behind.

I smiled and turned back around so that I was facing him.

He lightly placed a kiss on my forehead, nose, and then finally....my lips.

It was silent as we just stared at each other.
I could just stare at him for hours.
With that messy brown hair of his, joy filled eyes, plump lips, jawline of a god and a smile that never seems to be able to escape my mind.

Wow.

"Please don't go back to Jersey" he said breaking the silence.

I felt my heart drop.

"Gray-" I began, feeling disappointed at the topic.

"Please? Come on tour with Ethan and I... I don't want to leave you behind" he said quietly grabbing both my hands.

"I-I can't Gray... It's my senior year of high school, I have to go back" I answered, avoiding eye contact.

He nodded.

"Just...Tell me if you change your mind... Okay?" He asked hopefully.

I just nodded. "Okay"

"I've gotta go Gray" I said changing the topic and kissing his cheek, then waking to the other side of his room to grab my purse.

He nodded.

"I'll show you out" he said grabbing my hand and leading me out.

I woke up to the wonderful sound of my alarm signaling it was time for me to get out of bed.

Hint the sarcasm.

I rolled over and turned it off with a groan.

"Morning sleepy head" my mom said with a laugh as she entered my room.

Without knocking might I add.

"Mornin" I mumbled.

"I can't believe it's already August 1st" my mom said shaking her head.
