I park the car in a open parking space and speed walk into the hospital that Grayson was at. I ask the lady for Grayson's room number and she gives it to me.

Room 513. 2nd floor. I repeat in my head as I take the stairs cause I had a deathly fear of elevators. I run up the stairs, desperate to see Grayson.

I open the door to the 2nd floor and make my way down the halls, looking for room 513. I come across the room and take a deep breath in and out before I open the door.

He was currently asleep, he had small tubes connected to his arms and he has one of those things in his nose to help him breathe. I take a seat on the couch next to his hospital bed and get on my phone, waiting for him to wake up.

I put my phone in my pocket and slide onto Grayson's bed with him, being careful to not mess anything up and to not wake him. I put my leg on his and rest my head on his shoulder and fall asleep with him.

I didn't care if we broke up, I loved him and I could tell Vanessa was telling the truth. He really did love me but I was too blinded by my selfishness to see that. He is my happiness.

I wake up a couple hours later but on the couch. I furrow my eyebrows and feel my phone vibrating. I pull it out of my pocket and look at the caller ID. Ethan.

"Hello?" I whisper into the phone.

"You're finally awake. I came into Grayson's hospital room earlier and you two were asleep. Is Gray awake?" He asks and I look over at Grayson to see him still peacefully sleeping.

"No, I'm getting kinda worried though, ever since I got here he hasn't been awake for a minute of it." I say walking towards the window in his room.

"He is okay, trust me. He just sleeps a lot. A lot of the time when I'm there he is asleep as well." Ethan speaks calmly over the other end of the phone.

I sigh and nod even though Ethan couldn't see me. "Okay, I'm going to go. I don't want to stay here any longer, I don't want to get the nurses irritated." I say and Ethan sighs.

"Alright. Gray should be let out tomorrow anyway. I'll keep you updated." He comments and I nod again, examining the bright blue sky outside.

"Okay, thanks Ethan." I say and he says your welcome and then I hang up, looking back at Grayson and then walking over to his hospital bed.

I lean down and place a lingering kiss on his forehead and then leave.

When I get home and sit down on the couch and go on my phone and see a text from Ethan. I open it and see a picture of me and Grayson. He must have took it when he came earlier.

I saved it to my camera roll and posted it on Instagram with the caption, "Miss him💓" I headed into the kitchen and found Jacob sitting in a chair eating a banana while scrolling through his phone.

"What the fuck Jacob?" I furrow my eyebrows and walk over to him and sit next to him. "I got bored and when I came over your mom let me in." I raise a brow at him, "That doesn't mean that you can just make yourself at home."

"True that." He points at me and looks back down at his phone. I growl and get up and make myself something to eat.

Its been a week since Grayson got let out of the hospital but I haven't gotten to see him yet. Jacob has been coming over a lot, I didn't kind cause I honestly enjoyed his company. It was good that we weren't those kind of exes.

Alissa tells me that Grayson has been acting different lately. She says that one minute he misses me and the next he is blaming me for everything. He supposedly hasn't gone a day without talking about me.

I feel bad for not going to see him but he isn't in the best state right now. And as far as he knows, I'm still pissed off at him. I couldn't call him cause he doesn't have his phone. Ethan has it.

I've tried calling but when Ethan answers Grayson is always busy or asleep. I was getting suspicious. But it had to be nothing, maybe Ethan was just trying to make sure Grayson understands what he feels for me first before I can see him. Or at least that's what Alissa assumes.

Currently I wad at a skate park with Jacob and I was sitting down on the bench watching him skate, wishing I knew how to. After a couple minutes Jacob rushes over to me and sits down, taking a drink from his water bottle.

"Why aren't you skating?" He asks as he breathes in and out heavily. "I don't know how to." I mumble, embarrassed. "I can teach you." He suggests and I look over at him. "Really?"

"Of course. Why wouldn't I?" He laughs and I shrug, "I honestly have no idea. I've always wanted to learn." He stands up and grabs his skateboard and begins to walk along the sidewalk.

He turns around and yells at me, "Want me to teach you or not?" I giggle and bite my lip and grab my skateboard and run over to where he was. He begins to teach me how to skate.
