"You really shouldn't punch people, ya know. It could give off the wrong impression about you. plus it fricking hurts." Greyson said trying to look annoyed but failing epically.
"Whatever you say Grey. Ha, that rhymed and I didn't mean for it to." I laughed. "Anyway. Do you have work today?" I don't think this getting along thing is going to work.
"Yes, I do actually that's why I came in here in the first place. I need to get changed." He explained. I nodded and left the room.
I sat on the couch being out of the room for 2 minutes. I'm already bored shit less. This is gonna be fun then.
He came out about 5 minutes later. "You can come with me if you want. It would probably be better than staying here by yourself." He stated. But once again, I ignored him. I'm not gonna let him get on my nervous, i just have to keep calm. "Fine, I never said you had to come, just don't burn the house down while I'm gone." I glared at him and he left.
"Finally, peace and quite." I say to myself. I quickly fetch my phone out of my pocket and call Abi, we've been mates since middle school. We know each other like the back of our own hands, I can't stand her not knowing about Greyson. After two rings she picks up.
"Lizzy! Where are you? I came to your house today but you weren't there."
"Why didn't you ring before I rang you then huh?" I asked raising my eyebrow even though I know she can't see me, she'll know.
"Oh yeah, stop doing the look! Anyway, where are you." She asked sounding concerned again.
"Where do you think? You remember what today is don't you?"
"Its Wednesday." There was a quick pause and then... "OMGYOUGOTMARRIEDOFFTODAY! HOWCOULDIFORGET I'MA TERRIBLE FRIEND!" This went on for another 5 minutes so I'm super glad Greys not here to hear this.
"Calm down woman!" I shout through her screams. I heard her take a big breath to calm herself down.
"Sorry, how is he? Is he really ugly? Do you think he's going to be a rapist? Should I be scared for your health? Is he really hot though? You know like Chris Hemsworth?" She asked then bursted out laughing. "Or should I say Liam Hemsworth, cos he's the one you want." She might be my best friend but i really hate her sometimes.
"No he's not ugly, but i think it will take awhile for me to get used to living with him. He's not a rapist, he offered to sleep on the couch so I get used to sleeping here before sleep in the same bed a him. You probably should be scared for my health but only because he doesn't own any food, so I could starve to death. He doesn't look like Liam or Chris Hemsworth, but he doesn't need to, he is pretty good looking but I've only known him for about an hour so I can't say too much, but, he has black longish hair that goes down to about his eyes and it looks super soft. He has brown eyes, which you know i dig, he has strong face muscles that kind of make him look stern but cute at the same time. He has a nice voice, but can be incredibly annoying sometimes." I paused so she could but in but she didn't. "Um, he lives in an apartment complex which is petty cool, its nice here. He has two jobs, I can't really remember what they are but, they don't matter, he's at work right now, which is why I rang you."
"He sounds nice, does he, have a name?" She asked.
"No, his patents skipped that part of the process." I joked.
"Are you sure about that? I think I have a name." I heard another voice from behind me. Oh no, how long has been standing there?
"Is that him?" Abi asked.
"Umm..." He came over and took the phone off of me. Oh god. "Give that back, you don't know what she's capable of!"I shout, not caring that she can probably hear me.
"Hey, who's this?" He asks. I assume he tells her.
"Hello Abi, my names Greyson. How do you know Liz then?"
"huh, that's interesting."
"Of course I'll take care of her. It's not like I have much choice."
That's it, I get up off the couch and go into the bedroom. He is the most infuriating person I have ever met. I don't know how I'm going to cope living with him. Urgh! He does my head in! I lay on the bed looking up at the ceiling, he soon walks into the room but I don't avert my eyes to him, they stay locked onto the ceiling. I feel the bed tilt against his weight and a hand on my shoulder. I shrug it off and continue staring. "I'm sorry Liz, I didn't mean to upset you." I have to get away from him. I stand up and brush down my trousers before walking out of his building and down the street.
I eventually find a bench and sit down, I don't know how long I've been sitting here but it's starting to go dark so I should probably get back, but. I can't. I don't want to see his face at the minute, later, I'll have to. But not now.
I just want to go home to my mom, but I can't. Here is my home now. I wonder if me and Greyson will ever get on, I highly doubt it, but I kind of hope we do. I mean, we got on pretty well in the car on the way up here then he started being a jerk.
Half asleep I start slowly tugging myself the way I came here. Crap this place is big, how on earth am I suppose to get back now?! I'm just gonna die out here. Its official. God, I wish Greyson was here, I was anyone I knew was here. I just want to go home! I don't care which one! I shout in my head. I sit on the floor, the people around me probably think I'm drunk or something. I probably look it.
"Lizzy!" I heard Greyson unfamiliar voice shout. "What are you doing out here? Why are you sat on the floor? Are you crying?" He asked softer. Argh, I just want to punch his eyes out, clearly I can't do that. I don't even know why he annoys me so much!
"I was sat on a bench then tried to make my way back the way I came, but I forgot the way I came." I replied with a sniffle. He chuckled a bit then stopped and got all serious.
"Come here, you must be freezing cold." He said wrapping his jacket and arms around my shoulders. The warmth of his body was hot enough to melt ice. But I still start shaking more. "Come on." He says lifting me into his arms.
He takes me back to the apartment and brings me to the bedroom.
"You don't have to do this. I know you're only doing this because you have to." I say as he lays me down and tucks the covers over me.
Hey again!
I know I said Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays but I will probably update everyday this week to try and get back into the swing of things.
Sorry for the cliffhanger but I think this story needs some suspense.
I hope you're having a good day/ night/ evening. Where ever you are.
I'll talk to you and update tomorrow. :-)
