Friends to lovers

Chapter 28 / hit on

A week later

Gray and E had a meeting to go to today so I decided to go shopping alone. Gray insisted to wait until they were finished but I told him I'd be fine.

We were meeting for lunch at 1 and it was almost 12 when I first got to the Grove. I walked around going in and out of shops when I came across top shop. I walked in and knew I was about to blow all my money.

I came out half an hour later with four full bags, I also went to Victoria secret, pacsun, and a bunch of other places.

I decided to sit for a second because of how sore my legs were from walking around. As I was on my phone texting the girls back home a guy sat beside me, I glanced up to see a very bulk looking tanned guy, he had bright blue eyes and dark brown hair.

He smiles at me and I returned one a little more awkward then his. About 20 seconds later he spoke up
"Hey sorry to bother you, but I couldn't help but stare at you" he says turning to me
I laugh nervously not knowing what to say "stare?" I ask
"Yes, you are so beautiful I couldn't help but force myself to talk to you" he says scooting closer

I stand up quickly not knowing what he was about to do "sorry, i-i have a boyfriend" I murmur before walking away quickly.

I didn't mean to be rude but im just a very awkward person before I get to know you, he probably thought I was stuck up.

I had 10 minutes until the boys came so I decided to go into lush to look around, I ended up buying 5 bath bombs, a face scrub, 2 face masks and a new lip balm. I have a problem.

Gray 💗: hey baby, we're at the Cheesecake Factory

Luckily I knew where that was because I walked past it twice looking for forever 21

When I walked in I saw my two favourite faces sitting across from one another at a table near the back

"Hey guys" I smile before giving Gray a kiss
"Hey" they both say

I decided not to tell Gray about the guy, not because I wanted to keep it a secret but because I knew he'd be jealous and I didn't want him worrying I was going to leave him or something.

We ordered and I just got a salad with an iced coffee and a slice afterwards. The boys both got burgers and a milkshake then a cake. We sat there for about an hour while they told me about plans for tour. I don't like the thought of tour, obviously I want them to travel and meet the people who inspire them to be who they truely are. But being away from Gray for almost half a year frightens me.

"And when we're in Australia, we can fly you out" Gray says as I play with my left over salad
He kisses my cheek making me smile
"It's not until January baby, and we'll make it work" he whispers to me

I nod trying to force a smile
"So show me what you got?" Gray says pointing to the many bags on the seat beside us trying to cheer me up

I smile and show him the many shirts, pants and other things I probably didn't need that I got from top shop and forever 21
"What's in their?" He asks pointing to the Victoria secretes bag

I smirk "you'll find out later" I say as my hand runs up Grays thigh
I see him smirk knowing I'm turning him on.

Once were done we decide to go home because we're all exhausted. We get to the apartment and I instantly go to bed to take a nap.

It was about 5:30pm when I take my shoes and jeans off before climbing under the covers to sleep, when Gray climbs in next to me
"Baby" he says kissing my tired face
"Mmm" I whine with my eyes closed as I nuzzle into his warm side

His hoodie smells like him and is warm against my face. I was almost asleep when Grays phone went off, I felt his body lift up from under me and he leant over to the bedside table where his phone was, I groaned before turning to face the other way

He ignored the call before grabbing my waist and pulling me into his body so we could both fall asleep.
