The Art of Wasting Time ~ g.d.

Violet:

I wake up at 9 in the morning for the first time in forever. My sleep was completely undisturbed and I'm beyond grateful.

Grayson's side of the bed is empty. Or is it Ethan's? I don't even know anymore.

I slowly get up and stretch my arms above my head. He's probably down stairs making breakfast. Like always.

I make my way towards the kitchen and just as I assumed he's shuffling around the kitchen. "Good morning." I mutter which causes him to jump.

"Sorry." I chuckle as his hand's placed over his chest. "I didn't even hear you come down." He sighs. I just shrug with a grin on my face.

I open the fridge and grab the milk out for a drink. I grab a cup and just about fill it up to the rim. "Someone's thirsty." Grayson jokes. "You caught me." I chuckle.

Neither of us have the guts to talk about last night but maybe that's how it should be. A part of me wants him to stay with me every night but of course it'd be hard to explain to him. He was my boyfriends brother at one point.

Well the boyfriend that ran out on me with no explanation.

"I was actually gonna talk to you about something." Oh god here it comes. "Yeah what is it?" I ask after I take a long sip from my glass of milk.

"Are you still wanting to go on that cabin trip the three of us planned months ago?" My eyes widen. I completely forgot about it.

Ethan, Grayson, and I all booked a cabin for a couple weeks from now. Of course when we planned this I didn't know I was pregnant and I also didn't know Ethan would take off.

"I know you're pregnant now and stuff but I figured it could be fun. It could be like a get away from here and everything that's going on." I assume he's referring to Ethan's disappearance.

Maybe he's right though. Maybe this could be my get away and I can take some time to think about the fact that over the past month I've completely switched feelings towards the twins. I find myself wanting Grayson and not Ethan.

"I wouldn't be able to do much." I say honestly. We had all sorts of stuff planned since the cabin is right on the lake. We had hiking and jet skiing and more.

"Come on there's a hot tub." He says wiggling his eyebrows. "You are aware it'll just be me and you right?" I ask with my eyebrows raised.

"I'm fully aware. It's just you and I here. What's the difference?" He ask with a shrug.

"You won't get bored being stuck with a pregnant lady in such a beautiful place?" I ask with a slight chuckle.

"I'm never bored when I'm with you." He grins causing my cheeks to heat up.

This trip could give me a reason to express my feelings towards him even though I probably shouldn't have them.

AN:

I've come to the conclusion that I keep getting more and more sick as the days go by.
