Whirlwind//G.D & I.M

I stood outside of Ivan's door, still shaking and crying, I pulled my phone out of my pocket and searched Ethan's name in my contacts and clicked on his number, I put the phone to my ear and started nervously tapping my foot against the ground. After five rings he answered. "Hey Lucy" He happily said, I couldn't speak, all I did was gasp and start crying more "ethan" I managed to squeal out of me in amongst my tears "Lucy? What's wrong?" He asked, I shook my head forgetting he couldn't see me "I need to see you" is all I managed to get out of me, it was a couple seconds before ethan replied but when he did he said "of course. Where do you want to see me?" I thought for a second, thinking of somewhere to meet "the skatepark" I said, Ethan agreed to meet there and told me he was leaving now and would be there in five minutes, I hung up the phone and wiped away my tears, which was useless as they still kept streaming down my face like a water fall.

I walked until I got to the skatepark, I looked around and saw Ethan sat on the bench that him, Grayson and I sat on when we first hung out, he was wearing black ripped skinny jeans and a grey hoodie with his hood up, he was staring down at his phone and looking around every few seconds. He looked up and saw me, she smiled and stood up, I walked over to him and as soon as he saw my red, puffy eyes he pulled me into a large bear hug. "What's happened Lucy?" He asked, I just shook my head against his shoulder, he pulled away and sat down on the bench, patting it for me to sit next to him. He pulled his hood down and ran his hand through his thick hair, he watched me as I sat down and asked again what was wrong. "Everything" I cried, Ethan placed his arm on my shoulder in sympathy "why everything?" I covered my face with my hands and shook my head, I looked back up to Ethan "I'm assuming Grayson told you about our kiss" I said, my voice cracking as I said the word kiss, Ethan slowly nodded his head "well at least that's one thing I don't have to explain" I said, he smiled weakly "what else has happened?" He asked, I explained the situation with Ivan whilst he listened carefully, I was once again breaking down, he wrapped his arms back around me, comforting me. "What shall I do" I asked, getting my breath back and wiping away whatever tears I could. He looked away, thinking for a second, "this may sound weird but maybe you should speak to Grayson about it and give Ivan some time, and then when he's ready to talk, talk to him and sort your relationship out" I nodded "that's a good idea" Ethan smiled and patted my hand "but why would speaking to Grayson help?" I asked, Ethan looked at me "well, you can both speak about the kiss and explain why you thought it happened, and then you can ask him for advice for what to tell Ivan, as it was Grayson who kissed you, and you can figure out where you'll go from there" I nodded "that's a good idea, thank you. Are you sure he'll want to see me? He didn't seem very happy with me when I left" I sighed, shaking my head , Ethan looked at me sympathetically "I'm sure he'll be okay with it, we can go now if you like" I nodded "thank you eth" I said, we both stood up and started to walk out of the skate park and back to they're house.

Soon enough we arrived to Ethan and Grayson house, Ethan unlocked the door and walked inside "Gray" he called out "I'm back" He shut the door behind him and turned around, Grayson walked out of the kitchen eating popcorn out of a bag, he looked up and stopped where he was stood when he saw Ethan and me. "Lucy?" He asked, I smiled weakly "what..what are you doing here?" He asked I looked down to the ground, about to speak "and why are you with Ethan?" He asked before I could say anything Ethan spoke up "she phoned me, she was crying so much and needed to speak to me, now I think it's a good idea for you to speak to her" I looked at Grayson and he looked at me, he nodded and walked over "what do you need?" He asked I smiled weakly as we walked over to sit on the sofa "I'll go upstairs whilst you two speak" Ethan said, before walking away upstairs. "What do you need to speak about?" Grayson asked, I sighed "first I want to speak about the kiss" he nodded "I'm sorry." I said, he didn't say anything "I shouldn't have just let it go and ignored it, i should've spoke to you straight away but I didn't and I'm sorry about that" he nodded "it's okay. Is that all you needed to say?" He said, I shook my head "well I thought about it, after lots of crying and a panic attack and guilt, I spoke to Ivan, my boyfriend, and I told him about the kiss. I don't know what's happening with him now, he didn't speak about it with me once I told him he just kicked me out the house" I sighed and held my breath back to stop myself from crying. Grayson looked at me sadly "I'm really sorry that happened Lucy" I nodded "it's okay" he looked at me "so what do you want to speak to me for?" He asked "I'll help the best I can but I don't know how" I nodded and smiled, "thank you, but I thought we should talk about the kiss and why it happened" he looked surprised but nodded anyway "okay?" He said, seeming confused "why did you kiss me?" I asked, he sighed "well, it was late, we were talking and you related with me about over thinking. I don't know what came over me, it just felt right in the moment... and I like you" he told me shyly, I nodded, not really knowing how to respond "so Lucy" he said, I looked him in the eye "why did you kiss me back?" He asked, I sighed, this was going to be more difficult than expected. "I don't know, I was tired and I had a really fun day and like you said, it just felt right in the moment" he nodded "do you feel towards me the way I feel towards you?" He asked, I shrugged "I love Ivan" I said, he sighed although nodded "but, there's a part of me that does like you and I don't know why but I don't like being away from you" he smiled, and I smiled back. "But there's nothing we can do about it. I love Ivan" Grayson smiled weakened slightly "I understand" he said. "I'll try to help you but you need to sort your problems out with Ivan first. My feelings for you won't go away Lucy and whether your with Ivan or not I want to be with you, the fact that I can't be with you drives me insane" I sighed but smiled "but because your with Ivan I can't do anything, and I know he makes you happy so the best thing I can do is being your friend and helping you" I smiled and leaned over, I hugged Grayson tightly "thank you" I said
