First Love - A Greyson Chance Love Story

Chapter 53

     The next morning, I woke up wth Greyson beside me, sitting up straight and asleep. The bed beside ours is occupied by Madge and Penelope and the bigger one is occupied by Amber, Pattie and Rachel. When I looked at the clock, it's only 6AM. I touched my forehead and neck and thankfully, I'm not that warm anymore. Thanks to Greyson.

     I went outside the room and peeked at the boys' room. All of them are still asleep. I walked down the hallway and onto the stairs to drink some water and maybe cook breakfast for all of us. When I reached the kitchen, there's this woman chopping onions. Obviously, she's the cook since she's wearing a chef's uniform.

     "Good morning!" I said.

     "Good morning to you! Are you Sophie?" she said.

     "Yes I am." I got a glass and opened the fridge for water.

     "Oh are you feeling okay already?" she said as she touched my forehead.

     "Yes, yes I'm okay. Thanks! How did you know I was sick?" I asked. I poured water on my glass and drank it. It felt so refreshing.

     "Greyson told me."

     "Oh." 

     "Is he your boyfriend?" 

     "Nope. We're just friends. Really good friends!"

     "Oh okay."

     I thought about that for a second. Why does everyone think that were together? 

     "Let me help you with those." I continued chopping the onions and some herbs for the omelette. 

     We cooked bacon, fried rice, omelette and sausages. I also made potato salad. This boat's got everything! You can actually live here without starving! The cabinets inside the kitchen are full of goods. They have this fridge which has 2 doors and is full of soda and mango juice. 

     At around 7AM, we're already done in cooking and cleaning the things we used.

     "Thanks for the help!" she said.

     "Sure thing. We already worked but I still don't know your name..."

     "I'm Betina." she laughs. 

     I think she's already in 30s. She's not that white but her face is flawless. Her eyes are green and she's just as tall as me. Well, maybe a little bit taller. Her hair is brown and curly. Very beautiful.

     "Well, I'll be back, Ms. Betina! I'll call them already."

     "Just call me Betina."

     "Alright, Betina!" we laughed. 

     I went upstairs. I opened the door of the boys' room.

     "BREAKFAST IS READY!" I shouted. 

     Ethan threw his pillow and it hit straight to my face. 

     "Damn, Ethan!" I said. I slapped his face but not that hard.

     Tim, Patrick and Andre were laughing as they go down the stairs. I pulled Ethan up and pushed him to the door. I went to the girls' room. I shook Amber, Pattie and Rachel's arms and they weren't that hard to wake up.

     "Amber, Pattie, Rachel, breakfast is ready." I whispered.

     Pattie and Rachel got up and said thanks. Amber opened his eyes and glared at me. Her friends gave her an oh-cmon-Amber look then she followed them downstairs. I went to Madge and Penelope's bed then whispered them to wake up. 

     "Wake up, Madge. Wake, up, Penelope. Time for breakfast!"

     "Shut up, I'm sleeping." Penelope said. 

     "Oh cmon, just stand up." I grabbed their hands and pulled them up. Then they went straight to the dining room.

     I turned to where Greyson is sleeping. I sat on the floor and smiled when I saw him sleeping. I rubbed his arms and tried to wake him up but he didn't. I know he's awake already. He's just pretending that he's asleep.

     "I know you're awake."

     "I''m not." he said sarcastically.

     I pinched his nose. 

     "Hey that hurt!" he said.

     "Stand up." I said.

     He pointed on his lips. 

     "What? No."

     "Please?"

     "No." 

     "Oh cmon, the food's rea--"

     He interrupted by kissing me. His eyes are still closed. He kissed my while smiling.

     I was the one who leaned back first. "Now that you got your kiss, stand up now?"

     "Oh yes." he said.

     We stood up at the same time and the next thing is that he grabbed me and carried me on his arms. Like what kidnappers do to little children. Then he carried me all the way down to the dining room. When we arrived there, everyone was looking at us. They till haven't started eating. Amber is looking at me. Straight to the eyes. 

     "What took you guys so long? We waited for you to come down." Tim said.

     "Greyson didn't want to--" 

     "We didn't tell you to wait for us so... And oh, she ki--"

     "Let's eat?" I said. 

     Greyson smirked. "Okay fine."

     I sat beside Ethan and Greyson sat beside me. We prayed and then started eating. I asked Betina to join us.

     "Betina, please join with us." I asked.

     "I'm fine. I'll just eat after you guys." she said.

     "No, please eat with us." 

     "Are you sure?"

     "Of course!" 

     She sat in front of me and ate with us.

     "Did you and Betina cook these?" Andre asked.

     "Yes, we did. What do you think about it?"

     "Soooo good." Andre said.

     "Thanks!" we said at the same time. I smiled at Betina. She's so sweet. She's like my mom.

     After eating, I helped Betina wash the dishes. Greyson also helped then the rest changed into their swimsuits since Tim said that we're gonna try out his dad's jetskis. Wow they're rich.

     "Do you like Soph?" Betina asked Greyson.

     "I don't like her."

     It was total silence.

     "I love her."
