It's Been So Long: A Grayson Dolan Fanfic

2 People, 1 Bonfire: The Most Awkward Situation

Melrose' POV

As boy kiss my cheek again, I couldn't help a blush. It was so hard not to. I don't know if I like him yet. I don't know whether he liked me. But there clearly was sexual tension. We both couldn't seem to keep her hands off each other. I could also see that close to orange Glo, Grayson is also getting cozy with Dani. As much as it pissed me off, I knew it was for the best that we were with each other anymore. It's just too hard when we were together.

Surfer dude of some sorts came to the bonfire with an empty beer bottle in his hand and he told everyone to gather around the fire. "Kay dudes! ARE YOU READY TO PLAY SEVEN MINUTES IN HEAVEN?"

Seven? As in seven minutes in heaven? Hell no! This was not happening! I can't believe I got sucked in a game of seven minutes with people I️ barely knew. While I was also afraid of my reputation being tarnished and all the sudden I feel the butterflies come. Was it because I'm scared to kiss him for the first time? Or was it because I was nervous that my spin would land on Grayson.

Blake intertwines his hand in mine and it feels soft. It's not comfortable for me. I usually feel calluses and scars that Gray has hand from his surgeries and skateboard related injuries. He squeezes my hand and all I can afford to give him is a feeble smile.

As Blake reaches for the glass bottle, my hand shakes and my heart begins to pound. I'm so nervous and I don't know why. All of a sudden, Blake hands me the bottle and I'm the one that's supposed to spin. Great. Fan-fucking-tastic.

I take a deep breath. It's gonna be ok. It's gonna be ok. It's gonna be ok. Everything is fine.

I position the bottle and soon my fingers leave the bottle as it spins wildly out of control. Soon, it starts slowing down and it gets closer and closer to Grayson. My heart starts beating out of my chest. More like my heart is in my mouth and I can't seem to breathe at all. It finally stops, perfectly positioned on Grayson.

He extends his hand and I don't reach for it. I crouch down to Blake, "Don't worry," I say but I don't know why.

"It's cool. It's the game right?" He says chilled out.

"Yeah the game," I say less enthusiastic.

Grayson grabs my hand and pulls me into the parking lot. His fingers feel familiar on my wrist as we finally make it to his truck and I jump into the back.
I wait as Grayson hops in too before staring. He looks beautiful. He looks amazing in the moonlight.

A glow effect has surrounded his silhouette and he smiles. "Look i can explain. Ethan-" he starts.

I smash my lips against his and unlike our other kisses, it's slow, peaceful, still passionate, but sweet. His lips fit perfectly with mine as we fall back in rhythm. I would've never thought to kiss Grayson two times in one night but it happened. I finally knew why I was so uncomfortable with Blake. It was Gray. It would always be Gray. It would never be anyone else.

I slowly pull away and mere inches from him, I stare at him. Studying his features. "Promise me forever. Promise me everything we can have together."

He shone his goofy grin and his forehead touched mine as he pulled me into his lap. We both closed our eyes, probably dreaming the perfect ending. "I promise."
