Mavis's POV
I woke up the next morning wrapped in Grayson's arms. I looked up at his peaceful face that was slightly swollen from crying last night, I probably look the same.
But I do think that taking this break is best, we're so young. We need to focus on our futures and as much as we want to we can't make time for each other.
I placed a kiss on his cheek before getting out of bed, careful not to wake him up. I grabbed some clothes from my bag before making my way to the bathroom.
As predicted my face was swollen, I splashed some cold water on it in hopes that it would go back to normal.
After showering I walked to the kitchen finding Ethan watching tv.
"Hey" he said quietly.
"Hey" I gave him a small smile sitting next to him. We were silent for a few seconds watching Rick and Morty, it was super awkward so I spoke up first.
"I broke up with him" I looked down at the poorly built ikea coffee table. I remember Grayson FaceTimed me while him and Ethan were building this, it was so stressful for them, I smiled at the memory.
"How'd he take it?" Ethan asked quietly fiddling with the controller and my smile faded.
"Pretty good.....he didn't flip out" I shrugged.
"I don't think this is forever" Ethan said making me look up at him in confusion. "You guys had, Sorry have, something straight out of a fairytale. You guys make me believe in love and happy endings, I believe that at some point in the future you guys will get back together because you guys are meant to be. And you know what they say If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, its yours forever. If it doesn't, then it was never meant to be. And I more than sure you guys'll find your way back to each other" he got up placing a kiss on the top of my head before heading to his room to give me some time and space to think.

I decided to make the twins breakfast as a thanks for them letting me stay here for the weekend. Also, I didn't want to stay on the couch and think about....stuff.
Grayson walked into the kitchen as I was placing a pancake on a plate. I gave him a sincere smile placing the plate in front of him.
"Do I at least get to kiss you?" He asked and I looked down at the floor. "Just for the rest of the time you're here after that-...." he closed his eyes as if he were in pain, clenching his jaw. "We'll be friends"
I walked over to him placing my lips on his, he snakes his arm around my waist pulling me closer. "Fück I'm going to miss your lips"
"Woah, so friends with benefits?" Ethan asked loudly startling us, he was leaning on the counter eating the bacon. "Kinky" he smirked.
I walked over to him slapping his hand with my spatula making him wince. He sat on the stool next to Grayson as I placed a plate of food in front of him.
"So, what are you guys going to take me to do today?" I smiled at them.

Jeffs POV
I knocked on my childhood home door waiting a few moments before the door swung open revealing Avalon.
Since Mavis was in Cali for the weekend with that piece of shit asshole named Grayson, I thought it would be better for me to come visit my family than to stay in that apartment by myself.
