"I have to get home soon" you say to Grayson. He looks away from the TV and looks you in the eyes.

"Noooo babe please stay" he whines. You giggle as he grabs your wrist and pulls you into his arms. He attacks your face with kisses.

Soon the kisses lead down to your neck, he already knew your soft spots. He snuggled his face into the crook of your neck and wrapped his arms around your waist.

"I have to. My dad is probably gone and I'll be in my room the whole day anyway" you roll your eyes at the many plans you knew you were going to cancel.

"Can I go with you?" He asks, looking up at you with puppy eyes.

"You're so fucking cute oh my god" you grab his face in your hands and squish his cheeks together, making him laugh.

"Of course you can" you smile down at him.

He smiles back and stands up, bringing you with him.

"Let's go!" He says with excitement.

He drags you down to the first floor of their house and picks up your shoes that you left near the front door.

"Grayson we have to take my car" you say, stumbling over the smallest of things.

"No!" He yelled. He smiled back at you as he picked you up and threw you over his shoulder.

"Grayson put me down!" You laugh loudly. He shakes his head and opens the door to his Porsche, setting you down with ease.

"Buckle up" he says gently.

"No shit" you giggle and he gives you a look.

Grayson ended up taking you to a frozen yogurt shop.

"What are we doing here?" You unbuckle your seatbelt and step out, following Grayson.

"You had a bad day obviously, nothing a little treat can't do to make it a little better"

———

As you sit down in the shop and begin to eat, Grayson starts to sweet talk to you.

"My day was bad to, don't worry. I understand but as long as I spend some time with my girl," he brings his hand to caress your cheek, "everything's good again."

You smile and push your head into his hand slightly. He gives you a small smile.

"Can I ask you something?" He asks, looking deep into your eyes. You nod while taking small bites.

"How was your life growing up?" You look up at him with somewhat sad eyes.

"Um.. like I said my dad left when I was four and things just kinda went bad from there. My mom lost money and couldn't give me things that I needed. For school, for instance. I didn't have a lot and i got into trouble at school all the time."

Grayson nods and asks you to continue.

"But then my mom went back to college and graduated finally which lead her to her a good job. Then everything seemed to be better. But, my dad came back and I just don't think I'm ready to face that whole situation right now"

Grayson had been making intense eye contact while you spoke, causing you to look down every once and a while.

"You run away from your problems, don't you?" He asks.

"Well I guess you can say that, yeah. The first day we met I tried to ditch school but Alyssa wouldn't let me" you laugh.

He smiles. "Really?" You nod.

You look up from the table and into his eyes, just like he was.

The both of you didn't speak. Just stared.

You admired every feature.

The way his sharp jawline lead to his soft, fluffy hair. The little dimples on the side of his mouth when he smiled wide.

His cute little button nose and his plump lips. The arch in his eyebrows. The green specks in his hazel eyes. The sparkle that twinkled ever time he looked at you.

Or when his pupils dilated when he saw your beautiful face.

Everything was perfect about him. His humor and humbleness. The graciousness that consumed his whole body.

The genuinely beautiful soul that is Grayson Dolan.
