Can't Remember To Forget You | Grayson Dolan

11.

I woke up due to a loud noise coming from outside the tent. I turned around to search for Cameron's body, but it was not there. Remembering last night I felt little nervous to be around him right now, I didn't know why because since after all he was my boyfriend. I got up and just when I was about to exit the tend I realized that I was naked. I slap myself on the head with my hand and put some clothes on. Exiting the tent took a deep breath and looked around me. A very few people were left from yesterday, some of them were sleeping on the ground, others were laying in their cars probably regretting every single drop of alcohol they swallowed. I spotted Cameron next to his car talking with somebody who was in the backseat of the car.

"Eva..Eva, are you okay?" Cameron was trying to wake up his sister.

"Leave me to die here.." she murmured , covering her head with a blanket.

I got closer to them and I saw Ethan asleep on the front seat in a weird and as it seems to me very uncomfortable position. Cameron looked at me with desperation written all over his face.

"Help me! They both won't get up! I don't  know how much they drank last night, but they somehow managed to get into my car!"

"Why not their tent?" I looked around searching with my eyes for Ethan and Eva's tent.

"It got stolen. Eva told me before she passed out on the backseat." Cameron told me. I burst into a loud laugh.

"What do you mean it got stolen?" I continue laughing hard.

"I don't even want to know .." Cameron join me  in my laughter. Eva and Ethan were so dead they did not even notice how loud were Cameron and I.

Victor and Grayson appeared out of nowhere and four of us formed a circle. The moment Grayson came closer to me I could feel the tension growing between us both. He looked mad at me , but I was also mad at him, for no acceptable reason. I mean, the guy found a girl and decided to stop running after his best friend's girlfriend. Why was I mad? Grayson is being a nice guy and I am being a cheating jealous bitch.

"Those two won't  get up and we need to leave soon." Cameron pointed at Ethan and Eva.

"We will get all the stuff from here, let them sleep." Grayson's voice was raspy. It sounded so hot. God, the more I realised I can't have him , the more I wanted him. He noticed that I was staring at him and made a confused face. " Is there something on my face, Lauren?"  Lauren..he called me Lauren and not Lorra. My heart ached from the rudeness in his tone and the coldness in his voice.

"No." I quickly answered and turned around. I started collecting our stuff as fast as I could so we can leave this place sooner.

In one hour we were done with taking our stuff and put them in the cars. Some of the people that were here got ready to leave also.

"Guys, I am going home with a girl from our school. She offered me a drive." Victor smirked.

"Niceee, go get her tiger." Grayson laughed and pushed Victor towards the girl's direction.

"Guys, I still can't make Ethan and Eva get up. If they don't Lauren won't be able to get in the car. She has to get in the car with you Grayson."

Grayson made an annoyed face clearly showing  that he didn't want to be in his car with me for almost 5 hours.

"What do you mean they won't get up? I will make them.." Grayson started walking towards Cameron's car, but got pulled backwards by Cam.

"Ethan got his leg stuck in the car and we can't move him, plus he is asleep and Eva is literally dead on the backseat. Just take Lauren with you."

"Ugh, fine, fine.. I will." Grayson groaned and looked at me. "C'mon , lets go." he passed by me and I followed him.

Angry and irritated Grayson was a very intimidating Grayson. Honestly , I was little scared to be left alone with him right now, but it will be a lie if I say I didn't want to.

We got in the car and took off. I shift uncomfortably in my seat next to Grayson's. This was the first time we got to spent more than 3 minutes alone together since I have told him that I remember my past and that I have remembered about us. We stayed silent for a long time. Even though there was a lot of tension between us since yesterday , the silence we shared wasn't the bad kind. It was actually quite calming, until Grayson broke it.

"Did you sleep with him?" his hands gripped the wheel tighter and his body shifted on his seat. I kept my head down avoiding the eye contact. "Why did you do it?" he asked again.I could feel his eyes burning holes in my head.

"Why did you bring that girl yesterday?

"Why do you care? Are you jealous? "

"Why do you care ? Are you jealous that I slept with Cameron?" I snapped and turned my head to look at Grayson. His eyes were focused on the road

"So you did" Grayson's voice became softer and lower. If he was not that pissed with me right now I could swear there was pain in his words.

"I did." I felt guilty saying that. My hands started shaking and a wave of nervousness came over me.

"Why did you do it? What made you do it?" he calmly asked.

"Because you brought that chick last night. I got jealous and I wanted to erase that." I didn't feel the need to avoid his questions. Anyways , we both had a past together and we both knew I remembered most of it. I didn't have to pretend around Grayson. I didn't want to do it.

"And did you succeed?" his eyes quickly shift on me and then back to the road.

I stayed quiet.I know all of this was wrong, I know there could be nothing happening between me and Grayson again, I know Cameron didn't deserve this , I know , I know , I know..but God, I also know that from the moment I laid my eyes on Grayson a red string that connected us appeared. He knows me, he makes me laugh, he makes me smile, he makes me crave him, whenever we are in a room full of people Grayson is the one my eyes are searching for. When somebody else has his attention I get jealous. I can't share Grayson. My thoughts were overwhelming. At that moment all of this made me realise that no matter how kind , sweet and caring Cameron was, that no matter the fact that sometimes he could make me feel good , he was not Grayson. All this time I was trying to convince myself that Cameron is the one that I want and that everything between me and Grayson is a mistake. Even if what we did with Grayson was not okay when it comes Cameron , deep down from the moment I found out I never regret it. I could never regret Grayson, because he was what I wanted and what I needed.

"Lauren , I asked yo-.." Grayson began talking again.

"No." I stopped him. " My jealousy did not disappear. I still am , I will still be when another girl approaches you. I can't stand the fact that someone else might have you. I know that it is not right, but I can't help how I feel."

He looked at me with a soft smile placed on his face. He was about to say something when our car started moving slower and slower. We had to pull up and check what's going on. Grayson got out of the car , while I stayed.

"Is everything alright?" I asked him when he got back in the car.

"We have a flat tyre..and I don't have a spare one."
