chapter 9

me and gray picked up my stuff and decided to just go back to his house. ethan was getting stuff for next weeks video so it was just me and gray.

"hey wanna go swimming?" he asks.

"sure let me go change quickly" i say and he nods.

i go to their bathroom and change into a black bikini.

i put my hair up in a messy bun and head outside to the pool.

grayson's already out there sitting on his phone.

i go over and grab his phone out of his hands slowly.

once i got it out of his hands i put it down and he just sits there with his hands looking like he's still holding it.

i laugh and pull his hand and bring him too the pool.

i smirk and he looks at me. he knows exactly what i'm about to do.

i push him in the pool but he grabs my arm and takes me in with him.

we surface from the water and begin to have a splash fight.

we end up getting tired and decide to get out.

grayson grabs a towel and wraps it around me.

he gets the other towel and drys himself off a little bit then wraps it around his waist.

all i could look at was his abs. damn.

i guess he noticed me staring and smirked.

"like what you see" he says

"yeah actually" i then realize what i said then covered my mouth with my hands.

he laughs then walks back in side.

did i really just say that? no i can't i just got out of a relationship and he's my best friend i can't date him can i? no.maybe.

i then walk inside and grab a long t shirt and some booty shorts to change into.

once i'm done i see gray in his room on his phone.
again.

i jump on top of him and he groans.

"are you ever not on your phone" i ask. sitting on his back.

"i try not to be on it but i've got emails to go through" he replies.

"it sure don't look like it" i look at his screen and see he's stalking my instagram.

"why would you want to look at the screen when i'm right here in front of you" i smirk.

he blushes.

"let's watch a movie" i say

"ok what movie"

"you choose"

"you pick" i say getting under the covers on his bed.

"ok scooby do it is" he says

i laugh.

he wraps his arm around me and i lay my head on his chest.

as i do i hear his heart beat faster.

half way through the movie i start getting tired.

"hey gray i'm getting tired i think i'm gonna go to bed" i say yawning.

"ok good night ali" he said and kissed my forehead.

"good night grayson" i say and walk to the guest bedroom.

i put my phone on the charger and go straight to bed.

i woke up i was tied to a chair.

"grayson?"

"no guess again sweetheart" i hear a familiar voice say.

"b-brad"i say shaking.

"aw look your scared how cute" he says coming closer and kneeling down in front of me.

"wha-at d-d-o you want with me?"

"oh i'm so happy you asked" he smirked "im making you my slave. and i think you know what i mean"
he grinned.

"no no no!" i cry

all he does is laugh.

"grayson! grayson help please! grayson please!" i yell

all of the sudden i woken up with tears streaming down my face and sweating like crazy.

i look over to see who woke me up.

i hugged grayson as tight as i could.

"shhhhh shhhh it's ok your safe" he said while rocking me back and forth.

"do you wanna talk about it" he whispered

i just nod my head.

i explained everything that happened and starting breaking down again.

"hey shhhh it's ok your safe with me. i will ever let anyone touch you or hurt you ever again i promise"

"thank you grayson" i say.

"can you stay with me?" i asked.

"of course" he responded.

he laid down and i laid my head on his chest and he held me in his arms.

i slowly started closing my eyes.

last thing i heard was "i love you"

"i love you too" was the last thing i said before falling asleep.
