"Grayson, can we talk?" I asked sitting up against the headboard.
He rolled over and looked at the clock.
"At 2:30?"
I hummed in response.
He groaned and sat up next to me.
"What's up babe?" He placed his in my hand.
I cupped our hands together and took a deep breath.
"Are you going to leave me?" I asked.
"Wow... that was straight up, wasn't it?" He joked.
"Grayson.. please"
"Why would you ever think that?" He asked.
"I don't know.." I lied.
"Hayden.."
"Fine! It's just that.." I paused and folded my legs.
"Come on, Hayden, you can tell me. You know that..." he said, repositioning himself so that he was sitting in front on me with folded legs, too.
"Okay" I began, again.
He looked at me intensely.
"I feel as if you don't want a baby.. as if you don't want.. me.. anymore. I just don't feel the same connection we had before. I feel like your distancing yourself from qme so it won't hurt so bad when you leave.." I confessed.
"Hayden, not to re-hatch anything.. but YOU left last time. How do I know you won't do it again? This baby is going to be a great thing in our lives" he said.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have brought it up" I stated.
I stood up from my spot on the bed.
"Where the hell are you going?" Grayson yelled.
"I was going to go on a walk to clear my head." I said.
"Why? Didn't you literally just clear your fucking head talking to me? How come every time I try to have a civil conversation.. you run off?" He asked in the most angriest time I've ever heard.
I was honestly scared.
He stood up and ouch the wall, leaving a hole the sizing of a bowling ball.
He sighed and turned around to see me and my face full of fright.
I tried to ignore his presence and walked to the closet.
His walked behind me and set his hand on my shoulder, causing me to flinch.
I grabbed a comfortable outfit. I took of my shorts and stuck on:

"Hayden!" Grayson yelled as I ran down the stairs.
"Please!" He begged.
I slipped on my white Nike's and slipped my phone and keys into my pocket.
"Hayden!!" Grayson pleaded.
I walked toward the door and opened it.
I paused before walking out.
"I don't know what happened to you Grayson... but that's not the guy I fell in love with" I stated.
"Don't say that.." he said, His voice cracking.
I sighed and walked out of the house.
Tears started to overwhelm my eyes as I walked.
Everything was blurry.
-
I turned the corner and walked back to the house.
I didn't feel like going in just yet.. so I sat in the porch swing.
