Illusion

Chapter: 18

*FLASHBACK*

"What do you do for hobbies?" Grayson asked. I have been on the phone with him for a while now. I got off work and I went to Walmart and he called me after I was done there. I've been driving home and he's been talking to me the whole time.

"Well, I love art stuff."

"Like drawing?" He asked.

"Yeah, and painting. I don't wanna brag, but I'm pretty talented. Like artsy stuff is like my calling. Photography, drawing and painting. I love it all so much."

"I wanna see your drawings sometime and paintings." He said, making me smile.

"Well I'll have to remember to send you pictures when I'm home." I giggled.

"You better!" He said, making me laugh.

"But other than that, I love just hanging out with my friends. I love the outdoors. Like I love going on the four wheeler, bonfires, going on walks and I bring my camera a lot of places with me when I do." I began. "Otherwise, when I'm not doing that, I always listen to my music because it helps me through so much. I'll have my alone time and stuff. But I do love my outside stuff. I'll try new things but I'm a chicken for the most part."

"Like how chicken?" Grayson chuckled. "Like would you ever go skydiving?"

"Hell no! I hate heights! Like I wanna go in a roller coaster but I'm too fucking chicken because I'm afraid of heights."

"I'll take you on one, one day."

"If you can get me on it, then you can." I said, making Grayson laugh.

"I'll get you to do more things daring." He sounded so confident in his voice.

"You sure about that?" I asked.

"Yes. I'm sure." I could tell he was smiling.

"Well if you're so sure.." I trailed off.

"Oh I am." He said bluntly. "I'll get you to even try skateboarding!"

"I'll try it but I will not succeed." I started laughing. "I won't be able to balance! I can't even balance myself in a god damn bike! Or roller skates!"

"I'm surprised you can even walk!" He busted out laughing. His laugh was literally the best thing ever. It was like music to my ears. "But seriously, I'm going too."

*PRESENT*

"Good morning." I woke up to see Grayson just waking up too.

"Good morning baby." His voice was raspy and it was honestly hot as fuck. He motioned me to scoot over. I did and I laid my head on his bare chest with his arm around me. "What should we do today? Hm?" He rubbed his thumb along my arm.

"Doesn't matter to me." I said simply. Which I didn't care. I've been having so much fun. I've been here now almost one week and it's been the best ever. I've tried a lot of new things and it's been a hell of a time here.
