Grayson's POV
it's fairly late when i wake up. Riley's still in my arms, and i'm still in her room. i quietly and slowly get out of bed and look out the window. her dad's cop car was gone and my car was down the street so that he wasn't aware i was here.
i head downstairs and walk around. i hadn't been over here very much. we came over for the pool party and the night we watched movies and she fell asleep, and of course i pick her up all the time, but it still seemed like i hadn't been here. i head into a big, open room which looked to be a family room.
i'm instantly drawn to the piano. i smile a little and place my hands on the keys, sitting down. i press down on a few of them, and begin playing a piece i tried to learn a long time ago. i jump when i see Riley standing there, smiling as she listens.
Riley's POV
when i wake up, i hear someone playing the piano downstairs. i look around and realize it must be Grayson since he wasn't here. i sneak downstairs and listen for awhile. i smile and he notices me. he smiles too, blushing a little. "i didn't know you played" i say, walking over to sit down with him.
"i don't really... i tried for a while a long time ago, but..." he says, not finishing his sentence. i sit down and start playing "We Don't Have To Take Our Clothes Off " by Ella Eyre. i can feel his eyes on me. i smile before i start to sing.
so come on baby, won't you show some class.
why'd you have to move so fast...
we don't have to take our, clothes off
to have a good time, oh no.
we could dance and party all night,
and drink some cherry wine.
when i finish the piece i look up at him and smile. "i didn't know you could play, let alone sing" he says, smiling.
"mom taught me how to play when i was little" i say looking down at the keys.
"play another song" he says, smiling and i giggle a little.
i start playing again, this time i'm playing "Make You Feel My Love". i close my eyes and focus on the music
when the rain is blowing in your face,
and the whole world is on your case,
i could offer you a warm embrace.
to make you feel my love.
once i finish song i realize i'm crying. i sniff and hold my face in my hands. "hey... look at me" he says and i look up at him. he smiles and i laugh a little.
Grayson's POV
how did i meet this girl? it must have been a miracle, because holy shit.
her voice is the best thing i've ever heard. it was perfect. everything about her was perfect. she was perfect.
god, i love her.
wait... did i just-

Riley's POV
it's a couple hours later and Grayson had left to go hang out with the boys before the dance. i wasn't really looking forward to getting ready alone, so i texted Emma.
Riley: hey em, are you busy?
Emma: i'm gonna start getting ready soon, why?
Riley: wanna get ready with me at my place?
Emma: sure!! be over in 15ish!
i smile when she agrees, and get my dress out of my closet, laying it on my bed. i smile, looking at my dress. i'm way too excited. it's just some silly high school dance.
when Emma gets over, she gets all of her stuff out of her trunk and carries it into my room. "can i do your hair!?" she asks, smiling and clapping. i laugh and nod. she pulls out her curling wand and begins to do my hair.
i do my makeup as she pins back my hair, and then we switch. i smile as i do her hair. i haven't talked to her very much before, but i think we're going to be really close soon. i can just feel it.
after we finish her hair and makeup we both put our dresses on. she's wearing a short, red dress and i'm wearing the purple one i bought with the boys. i slide my heels on and she puts her sneakers back on so she can drive home and meet up with her date. "see you soon" i say hugging her and smiling. she waves and gets in her car and drives off.
i head back into my room and look in the mirror. i feel really good about myself and i smile. i layer a few necklaces and put on some rings. my phone buzzes and i turn to grab it.
Grayson: i'll be there in 10. be ready for pics :)
i set my phone down and make sure my makeup looks okay. i smile and sit down on my bed, scrolling through my phone for a while.
when i hear a knock i smile and head downstairs. i open the door and i grin when i see him. damn he was hot.
Grayson's POV
i adjust my jacket and exhale before knocking on the door. i don't know why i am nervous... i hear her heels click across the wood floor before the door swings open and my jaw drops.
holy shit.
she giggles when she sees my jaw drop. "stop gray!" she says, still laughing. i feel myself starting to smile and she invites me inside for a while. "oh yeah! i almost forgot!" i say opening the small box i carried in and pulling out a corsage and she smiles. "how did you get the colors r-", she says, stopping when i smile.
"ethan helped me" i say and she smiles, getting my boutonniere. i put the corsage on her wrist and she pins mine onto my jacket and i smile down at her. i feel my phone buzz and pull it out of my pocket.
Justin: hey, i'm here
"Justin's here. ready?" i ask and she gives me a weird look.
"Justin? who's that?"
"he's my friend. he's a photographer. i met him through lacrosse" i say, heading outside.
"fancy" she says laughing.
we head outside and pose for a few pictures before heading out. i open the passenger door and she climbs into my car. i walk around the car and get in the drivers seat, heading towards the school.
hiiii. btw there's pics of the dress and such in the next part. hope you enjoyed this part :)
