L.A. Baby- Grayson Dolan

5

"Hey idiots wake up we're here!" Maddy screams from the front seat.

I unlink my hand from Ethan's and rub my eyes. Grayson is still fast asleep but Ethan is awake and groaning. He runs his hands through his dark brown hair. I turn to Gray and gently pat his thigh.

"Wake up Gray Gray." I say

After not earning so much as a mumble from him, I decide to slap his leg and shake his shoulder a little more violently.

"Wake up assclown!" I yell.

"Gah what is it?" Grayson says a bit annoyed

"We're here. You're gonna have to come on if you even want to get in on time." Bryant says opening his door and getting out of the car.

We all get out and walk towards a big tent with gates all around it.

"Hey we're here for the concert." Bryant says.

The big security guard looks us all up and down before opening the gate and gesturing for us to walk in. When we get inside, we are almost immediately engulfed in a sea of people. We push our way through only stopping a couple times for pictures with fans. We all find a place somewhere in the middle of the audience. The concert starts and the music is so loud I think my ears might bleed.

"Do you wanna get something to eat on the way home?!" Ethan yells over the music.

"What?!" Maddy screams back at him.

"Food after the concert?!" He yells to her

"Nude at the what now?!" Bryant screams at Gray

"What are you saying?!" Grayson yells

"All of you just shut up and just dance!" I exclaim

The rest of that night was spent partying our butts off. The music was loud, the people were crazy but I got to spend time with some amazing people so I'm good with it.

The concert ends and we all pile back into the car. We are all exhausted and deprived of all energy. This time I decided I would drive and Ethan can ride shotgun. Before I even start the car I can hear the snores coming from the backseat. I laugh to myself and back out of the parking spot. I look over at Ethan. He's looking out the window as we drive down the highway.

"You okay?" I ask him

He looks over at me and smiles faintly.

"Yeah, why?" He says

"I dunno. You just look upset. I just wanna make sure you're alright." I smile at him.

"Yeah I'm pretty great." He says.

He reaches over and takes my hand. I turn my head back to the road as I feel my cheeks heating up.

"Goodnight Kit-Kat." He says putting his head in the window.

********
We pull into the driveway of the temporary Dolan residence. By this time everyone in the backseat is awake and very energized but Ethan is still dead asleep.

"C'mon y'all I'm feeling some avocado toast." Maddy says hopping out of the car.

"Same here." Grayson says running up to the door with her.

"I feel excluded so I guess I can indulge in some toast covered in green crap." Bryant laughs getting out of the car.

"Hey E we just got home. Come on" I say opening the door.

"I'm coming just gimme a minute to wake up" he says

"Okay everyone's inside already." I say as I shut the door.

I walk up the stone path and up to the front door. I can hear Maddy's squeals from outside. It doesn't really help the headache. I turn around and walk back to the car and I get inside.

"Back so soon?" Ethan laughs.

"Not in the mood for loud noises." I say

"Yeah me either. Wanna just hang out in here? I think the backseat would be a bit more comfortable." He smirks.

"I guess it might be." I say looking down at my hands.

We open the doors and get out of the car and open the back door. I crawl in and get comfortable . The clock on the dash reads 2:13am. I didn't realize we were out that late. The slam of the car door startles me as Ethan get in.

"Wow it's already two am?" He says rubbing his eyes.

"I guess so." I smile at him.

"I think I speak for both of us when I say I'm completely exhausted. How about we just crash in here tonight? I really don't wanna get up." He says

"Sounds good to me." I say.

He smiles at me and spreads out across the seat.

"Come here." He says opening is arms.

I laugh and lay my head on his chest and he wraps his arms around me and we fall asleep in less than five minutes.
