Grayson's POV
I opened the door and without a second thought, wrapped my arms around Nick. That's what I needed right now.
A warm, comforting hug.
"Are you okay? What happened?" He pulled away from me to look at me. He had a worried expression on his face. I actually didn't expect him to come and here he was.
"I got in an argument with Ethan..." I mumbled sadly, while looking at the ground. I didn't know If I should have told Nick the real reason why Ethan and I fought.
"Why? You guys never fight, right?" I shook my head and felt tears well up in my eyes. And suddenly all these emotions hit me like a tonne of bricks.
"I messed up. And now he probably never wants to talk to me ever again! Why do I always have to fuck up everything?" I cried and clung onto Nick's shoulders. He took my hand in his hand, while leading me towards my bed. He sat down and gently pulled me onto his lap. I then placed my head on his chest and sighed. This feeling was oddly comforting. I'd never done something like that with anyone before, let alone a boy.
"Can you explain to me what happened, babe? Only then I'll be able to help you." And there it was again. Babe.
"Ethan doesn't know that I talk to you or hang out with you for that matter. And he caught me lying to him when I slept over at your dorm. And now he thinks I don't trust him. You should have seen his face, Nick. He looked so sad, so... hurt. I'm a terrible person, and now he hates me." The tears wouldn't stop streaming down my face. I finally let everything out, all these emotions I was feeling, all these emotions that I had been hiding away, afraid that they'll take control over me. No one had ever seen me in such a vulnerable state before, besides Ethan. And now Nick. It felt so weird. I barely knew him, we often argued and here I was now, opening up to him in the most intimate way.
"Bullshit. He doesn't hate you, so stop putting that into your head. Why don't you tell him the truth, then? Or are you embarrassed of me?"
"No! I don't even know... what this is. Are we even friends? I don't want to introcduce you to him when I don't even know if we are friends. You know, since we do argue a lot."
"Well, you are sitting in my lap, aren't you? I would hope we would at least be friends." He teased me and I cracked a small smile.
"Shut up!"
"Aye, there is your beautiful smile again!" I hid my face in the crook of his neck, lightly punching him. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the beautiful moment that was probably not going to last long.
"Thank you for listening, Nick. I appreciate it."
"I'm always here to listen to you, Grayson."
"Thank you."
"Will you tell Ethan the truth now?"
"I don't know if I should, Nick. I don't know why, but I just can't tell him. I can not seem to get the words out, when I at least try to explain it to him. He wouldn't understand." I sighed.
"He's your twin brother, though I think you look nothing alike, of course he'll eventually understand."
"It's probably because he has longer hair than me." I laughed, thinking back to when I once cut Ethan's hair as a joke. I messed it up so bad. I really missed those times with E. I felt like we were slowly drifting apart, because of my stupid ass. I really needed to fix everything. I couldn't lose him, not now, not ever.
"Go and find him, Gray. Talk things out with him, I can tell how much he means to you."
"He means the world to me, Nick. I would never forgive myself If our relationship were to break apart." I said sincerely. Just the thought of it made me want to crawl into a dark hole and never come out again. Where I would be stuck in the darkness forever. That is what would probably happen if Ethan and I were to drift apart.
"Then tell him that and get it off your chest. He needs you now and you need him, too." He was right. I needed to fix everything right now or else I was really going to lose him.
And as If on cue, Nick's phone started ringing. He had placed it on my bedside table as soon as he came in and I could clearly see who was calling him. Lauren. He quickly grabbed it, obviously not wanting me to see the caller ID, but it was too late for that. I got up and put on my jacket.
"Uhm, I should really go now." He stuttered out, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly.
"Alright." My mood changed drastically once again. From sad, to happy, to pissed. All that in just 20 minutes.
"Call me if you need anything, Gray." I nodded, without making eye contact. I turned to him, before he went into his own dorm.
"Oh, Nick?"
"Yeah?"
"Have fun with Lauren." I spit and closed the door, creating a loud bang. I leaned back against the door and slid down to the floor.
Nothing made sense in my life right now and I really needed to get my shit together. Now!
...............
Hmm... I sense a jealous Grayson 👀
Hope you enjoyed it!
