[five / side A → grayson's POV ; both the twins dare]
MY DAY had started like it usually does, me waking up late and Ethan shoving me. This boy never ceases to miss a beat when it comes to disturbing others peace.
I shoved my way around my room, grabbing random articles of clothing and putting them on. In the span of the moment, I hadn't care what I was wearing. Ethan laid on my unmade bed concentrating hard on his phone.
"Done." I stated as I presented myself towards Ethan. I grabbed ahold of my book bag and waiting next to the door for Ethan.
"Grayson dude. What are you wearing?" Ethan pointed out as he tried unsuccessfully in holding back his laughter.
I confusedly looked down and realize what was he doubling over for. I had managed to mix all the wrong colors and designs, all while I felt confident in what I was wearing.
"Fuck!" I mumbled as I tore every piece of clothing I was wearing. I turned towards my dresser, where I randomly chose an outfit and stuffed my feet into a pair of Vans.
"Are you serious?" Ethan blurt out.
"What?" I groaned. What did I mess up now?
"We're dressed the exact same, I understand that we're twins bu—" He began.
"We're late enough, I'm going like this." I anxiously interrupted, already pacing out of my room. I heard Ethan's footsteps follow close behind me, his footsteps sounding heavy.
On the way out, I grabbed a pop tart before jogging towards Ethan's car. Out came Ethan with a waffle engulfed in his mouth as he came around the car and unlocked it.
"How come you have a waffle?" I asked curiously, getting into the car.
"Guess mom just likes me better."

I silently thanked god that the bell rang at this moment. If I would've lasted one more minute in my U.S. History class, I probably would've yanked all of my hair out.
I inserted my hand into my book bag, digging for my beanie. As I kept digging I felt a hat and pulled it out. I turned it over, only to realize it was a gray beanie with the letter 'E' embroidered.
I walked out of the classroom, heading towards the library to hand Ethan's his hat. In the corner of my eye I watch as Derek jogged up to me.
"Hey Gray, you joining? We're heading out." Derek asked. I removed my eyes from the hat that I held and onto the group of friends that waited for me.
"I'll meet you in a sec, gotta hand this to Ethan real quick."
Derek nodded and turned back to the group, mouthing a few words. They turned the opposite direction and disappeared. I continued going straight, getting close to the library.
As I got closer, I heard giggles coming from the library. Someone was enjoying themselves a little too much. I was able to identify one of the giggles from Ethan — but who could Ethan be laughing with.
I stood at the door and realize who it was. It was from May Collins, suddenly I felt my blood boil and me clenching my jaw. I thought I made it clear to Ethan, not to associate with a May ever again.
I turned around and came bumped into a small figure. A whimper escaped from the mouth of the other fallen one. I peered up to see that it was, Ava. Ethan's crush!
"My apologies, Ava." I quickly got up, extending my arm for her to hold on. Which Ava gratefully holder up to as I jostled her up.
Ava frowned at the sight of her lunch on the ground, she sighed as she got on her knees and starting picking up the pieces. I instantly felt bad, the was my fault for not paying close attention!
I also when onto my knees and started helping Ava with her lunch spill. From the corner of my eyes, I watched as Ava looked at me with a grateful smile and that was enough to make me feel better.
"I'm deeply sorry about your lunch, how about you join me for lunch?" I offered, still on my knees picking up the leftovers.
"I don't know..." She trailed off, sounding unsure of the offer. Which was totally understandable, here was a complete stranger offering her to eat lunch with.
"How about you come, just you, me and the bro's to The Hub?" I restated, cheekily smiling.
"Only if you pay."
"Wow, you drive a hard bargain. My treat then."
I got off from the ground and offered my hand out again. Ava sweetly smiled as she held my hand and was helped up. I dropped the piece I had been able to collect and dropped into the box that Ava carried. I then grabbed the box and threw it away at the nearest trash can. Which was right next to the double cafeteria doors.
"Thanks." Ava chuckled. "Not many people would of done what you did."
"My pleasure."

Grayson laughed at the joke Aaron had told, Grayson admitted that Aaron was the funniest lad in the group. Irina's laughter was soon next to be heard, she held a fry in her hand and a sauce in the other.
"You're hilarious, Aaron!" Irina gasped, slurping her strawberry-banana smoothie.
Grayson went to take another bite of his burger but was interrupted by the unexpected vibration that came from his phone. He picked up and saw that it was from nerve. Of course, nerve had came at the perfect time!
I glared at the my phone screen. The reward for messing up Ethan's life was incredibly easy. Ethan didn't even have a life, so what exactly would I be ruining? It's not like he ever had a chance with any of the girls or had a real social life. Nothing would change, or so I made myself believed.
