FIRST PERSON

hi. my name is avery, i'm seventeen, and i live in california with my best friend.

his name is grayson bailey dolan.

yeah, people say he's famous, but i think of him as a regular, goofy, teenage boy.

we live in an apartment together with his twin brother, ethan.

they both turned eighteen a few days ago and today's the day i take grayson out to celebrate. ethan's sick and today was the only day i was off from school.

the only problem is that i have a big crush on grayson and he doesn't know...

-

i was at a restaurant with grayson, and we both inhaled our food. he asked for the check and he payed. i gave him a dirty look and he laughed.

"oh so i'm not allowed to be a gentleman?" he asked as he put his wallet in his back pocket.

we left the restaurant, walking down the busy sidewalk, when all of a sudden i heard thunder rolling in from behind us. in the matter of thirty seconds it went from drizzling to pouring down on us.

"you ready?" he looked at me and smiled.

"ready for wha-" i felt grayson grab my hand and he started running, pulling me with him. i slipped on the wet pavement a couple of times, but he pulled me back up.

"i won't let you fall!" he yelled and laughed.

i held my soaked jacket close to my body with my free hand, and i felt my hair becoming stringy from the rain.

while we were running, the world seemed to fade away. the cars' headlights, the people walking by, the bright signs and streetlights, all blurred out of my vision. all i could see clearly was grayson running, his hand perfectly fitting into mine, and once in a while him looking back at me with that goofy smile plastered across his face. a smile i could never get tired of.

i came back down to earth when he pulled me under the canopy of a closed down store, and there wasn't a lot of room, so we stood close to each other. our laughter started to die out after a few seconds, and we looked at each other.

our eyes instantly locked.

the world started to fade away again, and i got lost in his beautiful, brown eyes. grayson took a small step forward, and our faces were inches away. he tucked a piece of hair behind my ear, and chills ran down my spine, and it wasn't from my soaked clothes. his hand stayed on my face and he slowly leaned in.

'i'm going to have my firs- wait. no, he's not going to kiss me...right?'

but grayson's unforgettable eyes, grayson's warm smile, grayson's sweet personality, grayson's incredible ability to make you feel special. grayson.

my heart started pounding out of my chest and i felt my face heat up at the thought of being in a relationship with him.

he kept leaning in until our lips were practically touching, then he stopped. my mind was racing. he was asking for permission.
