They Were Wrong

Alex

****** Baby's POV ******

At around 1:00 a.m. we arrive at this beautiful building that looks so fancy I know I shouldn't even step foot onto the property. Wait how does Grayson know abut this place. Oh god please tell me he's not some rich guy with a rich family and he's royalty or something.

I guess I was thinking for too long that Grayson was already out of the car and had my car door open. After a few seconds more he held out his hand and I grabbed it. Once I got out of the car I figured he would have let go of my hand but he didn't. I didn't mind of course I just didn't expect him to do such a thing.

Baby - " Where are we?"

Grayson - " I never really learned the real name it's some Greek name, but I just call it my safe haven."

Baby - " If you don't mind me asking.... Why do you call it that?"

He paused for a second and looked at the ground.

"you don't have to answer me. I totally understand I have things I don't want to tell anyone either even though I only talk to two people which are my mom and best friend because I hate everyone which I also don't know why I am telling you this bu-"

Play the song Hold on.

Grayson - " My best friend um killed himself a couple years ago. I had just gotten my license so I took my car over to Alex's house to show him. No one else was at his house that night because he wasn't feeling well and his family went out to eat.... I got there around 9:30. I just walked in as usual, yelled his name while walking through the house looking for him. Then I got to his room, he wasn't in there either but there was something different about his room. Everything was straightened out and organized. His suit was hanging up on his closet door. I stopped for one moment and heard the bathtub so I figured he wasn't feeling good so he must of got into the bath. I knock on the door but there was no answer. I try again but still no answer. I tried opening the door but it was locked. I started saying his name but still no answer. As I start to get scared I slam my body against the door trying to open it but it just wouldn't budge until finally the door swings open and I fall to the ground. I fell into a pool of a mixture between water and" He pauses for just a split second to sit down and put his feet in the water. I hadn't even noticed we started walking again. "blood." I see tears form in his eyes but I blinks multiple times to make them go away. " As I was getting up I noticed someone sitting on the side of the tub. Then quickly realized who it was. When I looked at him his eyes were still open just staring at me, but I could tell the life had left his body. My eyes started getting blurry as I examined his body. He was fully dressed and his wrists had been cut open vertically. There was blood everywhere. All I could think about for a whole year was how he was just staring at me with such a blank expression. Months after that I found a note in his room. Explaining why he did what he did. He said that I was the only one close to him to know about the note."

I sit there staring at him watching the tears roll down his cheeks and hitting the water he was hovering over.

Baby - " I'm sorry....I didn't mean too bring it up. You didn't have to tell me."

Grayson - " I wanted too." He says while turning his head and looking at me with a little sad smile printed on his face.

" So you wanna go for a swim?" He wipes the tears away and looks back at the pool with a smile.

Baby - " I don't have a suit to swim in." I just giggle at him and point to my clothes.

I watch as he stands up and holds his hand out for me to grab.

"You're not gonna like push me in are you?"

Grayson - " No I promise you I am not going to push you in. Just trust me." when he said the word trust I slowly start to reach for his hand and then finally place mine in his. He pulls me up and of course my clumsy ass falls right into him. Thankfully he caught me. He holds me for a moment and I absolutely do not want him to let go of me. It feels good to be in his arms. He stands me up.

He starts taking his clothes off until he is just in his boxers. Oh my lord. He is built like a god. As I am staring at this master piece I get interrupted by him saying " You like the view" then jumping in the pool and almost splashing me.

Grayson - " Come on get in."

Baby - " Are we gonna get in trouble for being here so late...well early technically." I say with a small giggle. He swims towards me and tells me everything will be fine.

When he goes back under the water I start to take my clothes off. I am pretty hesitant because I personally hate my body. I think its disgusting and ugly. Only because I don't look how I think I should look. I am now down too my underwear and bra then I feel someone watching me. I turn quickly to see Grayson staring and I immediately put my arms around my stomach and slowly get in. The whole time Grayson didn't take his eyes off of me. I then go under and push myself off the wall with my feet and end up right next to him when I popped up. It's still silent and I look up to see him still looking at me. I could not stop looking into his eyes. He started moving towards me until we are facing each other face to face.
