evelyn's pov.

Everything felt odd. The door opening, with not Ethan, but Grayson appearing behind it with a small smile on his face when he saw me, it was all so strange. However, it quickly turned into his signature smirk.
" I thought you weren't gonna show up " He breathed out, his eyes heavy and his hair messy, especially when he ran a hand through it "  I got excited "
He pouted, a cocky look appearing on his face when I rolled my eyes.
" you invited me over grayson, don't even try and pull that card " I told him, hearing him laugh as he stood at the door.

I took in his appearance subtly, the boy who was wearing some joggers and a hoodie, still managing to look flawless. I'd always known he was hot, but ever since I bumped into him outside his bathroom, the thought of his perfectly toned body lingered in the back of my mind. It shouldn't, though.
" okay, but for real, I thought you'd set me up, or some shit like that " He shrugged.
" and why would I do that? " I responded, knowing that I had many reasons to not show up. So why didn't I?
" hmm, maybe because I've been a total dick to you. and maybe because you don't believe that I'm actually sorry for that? " he said with a funny look on his face, licking his lips as he lead me up the stairs of the large home, the home which I was all too familiar with.
I let out a laugh, replaying his words over and over in my head. He said he was sorry, and the thing is, it seemed as if he might have meant it.
" I guess I did have a pretty good reason to leave you hanging, didn't I? " I joked as we walked past ethan's bedroom, various sounds heard from behind the wooden door.

The boy was about to laugh at my words, until he heard the moans of Clarissa's name, something which made him scoff.
" bit of a downgrade, huh? he went from a fine piece of ass like you to a fucking basic barbie doll. the boy has no eyes " Grayson told me, whilst I rolled my eyes at his words, the moans getting louder as he lead me past the bedroom.
" ok, I don't blame you for wanting a distraction from that. but why me of all people? you're meant to hate my guts " I laughed, the door to the boy's room opening.
My eyes scanned across it, nothing had changed. I remembered the endless number of days that the three of us would sit on his bed and watch movies, or even do homework together. It brought a little smile to my face, they were good memories.
" I don't hate you, evelyn. I despise you "
I raised an eyebrow at his words, glancing over at him as he shut his bedroom door, sitting beside me.
" is that why you're sitting next to me on your bed? " I said smartly, the boy's eyebrow raising as he let out a breath.
" hmm, I'll give you that one " he smirked, getting comfortable.
He made sure not to sit too close, knowing that it would've made me a little uncomfortable.
" so, wanna help me study for this exam? " His voice perked up again, a smirk spreading across his lips when my eyes snapped up to his.
" I mean.. I guess " I answered, shrugging my shoulders.

Suddenly, the boy's hand landed on my leg as he laughed at how unenthusiastic I was, something which made my heart plummet, and my eyes peal straight down towards my knee. He noticed my shocked expression, instantly removing his hand with a guilty and somewhat hurt, look on his face. He instantly covered it up with a laugh, though, trying to pretend I didn't see it. Typical.
" I'm not going to try anything, evelyn, stop worrying " He told me, standing up to grab his textbooks.
I gulped, nodding my head awkwardly.
It was almost as if him and ethan had switched personalities. It was weird, and it got me thinking, probably a little too much.

the fuckboy he pretended to enjoy being, wasn't him at all.
he was in there somewhere, maybe someone just had to help him bring it back out.
