HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY TWO FAVORITE IDIOTS! ❤❤❤ #18

Enjoy this chapter, peeps!

Grayson's POV

It was officially the last day, before the holidays started for us. Nick would be coming home with us, so I had another reason to be excited. I already talked to my parents about bringing Nick and they were totally fine with it. I was a bit nervous, though. I knew, that Nick wouldn't keep his hands off of me and I didn't mind it, but I was scared that we would get caught. We had to be extra careful now. Especially since nothing was official between us.

"Gray, hurry up!" I heard Ethan yell. I was currently getting dressed, because Ethan and I wanted to go to the skate park. It was a nice day out today, so figured why not go skating? The weather had been pretty bad lately, so we weren't really able to go out that much.

I grabbed my phone, keys and wallet. "Calm down, E! I'm done, let's go."

"But wait, don't you want to kiss Nick goodbye?" He teased.

I felt my cheeks heat up at that and I glared at him, "Shut up, now come on."

"How does it feel?" He said.

"How does what feel?"

"Being in a relationship, dude."

I shrugged and turned to him, "I don't know, cause I'm not in one."

He smirked, "You guys are pretty much official. So, yes, you are."

"E, please. Just thinking about it makes me all nervous. We haven't talked about it, yet."

"It's pretty obvious that the both of you have feelings for each other, Gray. If you want him, go and get him. And tell him how you feel, man." I sighed and nodded. Ethan was right. I needed to have closure and find out if Nick even felt the same about me, like I did for him.

"Maybe you're right, E. I should really talk to him about it."

"Do It, Gray. Before someone else steals him from you and I can tell how much he means to you already."

"He does and I'm scared, E. What if he screws me over? After all, that Lauren girl seems to still be in the way." I scoffed.

"If he screws you over, imma introduce him to my fist."

"Jeez, calm down, bro." I laughed.

"I'm not even kidding, Gray. I'm being dead serious."

"Alright, alright. I'll talk to him about it."

"Do it now. Go over to his dorm." E suggested and I thought about it for a bit. That sounded like a good idea actually.

"Okay, I'll do it-" Ethan cut me off, suddenly.

"Actually, you know what. I wanna talk to him." And with that, he was out the door in just the blink of an eye, leaving me confused.

What did he want to talk about with Nick? I really hoped it was nothing bad. But knowing Ethan, he could be such a drama queen at times.

Ethan's POV

I had wanted to talk to Nick for a while now. I wanted to get to know him and see if he was the right one for Grayson. Especially since Gray never really had strong feelings for anyone before, so this really was a big deal for him and for me too. I'm a nice person, but if someone messes with my brother, I can become a real monster. So I wanted to make sure that Nick was a good guy, someone who treated Gray right and took good care of him. I didn't want to worry about the guy who Grayson was basically dating, especially since there were many rumors about him. And those rumors weren't necessarily nice.

I was staying infront of Nick's dorm room right now, waiting for him to open the door. I expected Grayson to follow me out, but he didn't. So that was good.

"Oh, what's up?" I walked past him and into his room. I gave him the cold shoulder, so he would know that I was being serious about it.

"Sit down. We're gonna have a long ass talk." He looked confused and I almost had to laugh. Almost.

"Uh, sure? Shoot, what do you want to talk about?"

"I think you know why I am here, Nick."

"Is it about Grayson?" I nodded.

"Yes. What are your intentions with him? Be honest or I swear I'm going to be so mad." I threatened, feeling my breathing go uneasy already. I was a bit angry, for some odd reason. Almost as If I could sense what was about to happen in the future.

"I like him, Ethan. A lot, actually."

"But you also like that Laura girl, correct?"

"Lauren. And no, I don't. I called it quits with her." I leaned back a little, not sure if I should believe him or if he was telling the truth. He seemed genuine about it, but what if it all was just a facade?

"You sure about that?" I asked once again.

"Why would I lie, Ethan? Grayson means a lot to me. If he didn't, why would I even waste my time, then? Come on, man." He sounded kind of desperate.

"Hmm..." I gave him a suspicious look, still giving him the cold shoulder.

"Listen up, Ethan. I was an asshole towards Grayson in the beginning and yes, I do admit that I have a bad temper at times and I used to be violent and get into a lot of fights. I'm sure Gray already told you about It, but I really do like Grayson. I don't want to mess it up with him." Wait, wait, wait... Violent? Bad temper? Oh hell no!

"Hold the fuck up here, Nick. Grayson didn't tell me shit. You really think I want my brother to be around someone violent like you?" I raised my voice. I was honestly shocked by those news. And disappointed that Grayson didn't even tell me about it.

"Even if you don't approve, I'm going to fight for Grayson. He is way out of my league, I know and I don't even know why the fuck he even likes me-"

I interrupted him, "Trust me, me neither." I scoffed and got up.

"I mean it, Ethan. Let me prove it to you." After finding out about those things, I wasn't actually sure if I would ever like him. But I couldn't force Grayson to stay away from him. It was his business after all and his love life that I had no say in.

"I don't like you right now, Nick. I really don't. But I'm gonna give you a chance and do this for Grayson. Break his heart and imma break your fucking neck, understood?" He didn't even flinch or anything. He just stared at me, blankly, before nodding.

"Thank you." He just said and I walked away, brushing my shoulder against his harshly.

Oh Grayson, brother. What did you get yourself into?
