But I love him...|| G.D.

Realization.

Elizabeth P.O.V.

Me and Gray went back home. Grayson texted Ethan to tell him. "Grayson, I have a question..."

"What?"

"Can you stop drugs? Please..." I begged him.

"I won't Beth." It was quiet the rest of the road. I'm tired of trying. Arrived at home I decided to go take a shower. I got in the bathroom, "What are you doing?" Grayson asked.

"I'm going in the shower. Can I do this or you are scared that someome is going to look at me?"

He rolled his eyes. "Can I come with you.?"

"Why?" I asked confuse.

"To be with you."

"I don't know Gray-"

He begged, "Please Beth...". To be honest I don't want him the see me... For now a moment I'm always wearing a long sleeve sweater and there's a reason for that.

Grayson P.O.V.

I need to see her. It's been like 3 weeks since a saw her with nothing. "If I accept you have to promise me something."

"What...?"

"Think before taking another shit."

"I promise you." We went in the bathroom. She takes off her dress and I can't believe what I'm seeing. She is full of bruises, I really did that? No no no no no I didn't. I'm not like that. I can't do this to her.
Am I a bad person? At this point? I started panicking. I can't breathe.

"Grayson. Grayson? What's wrong?" I'm having a panic attack.

"Why are you with me? Look at you. I'm a monster. I'm hurting you. Why are you still there? Tell me. Beth this is... I- tell me I didn't done this please tell me I-"

Elizabeth P.O.V.

I kissed him. He need to calm down. I pulled away,
"Just breathe ok?" I said as a run my hand trough his hair and hugged him.

"I did this..." He said crying.

It's hurt me to saw him like that but now he knows. "Shhh... Just relax babe."

"No Beth. I'm bad. Don't you see? Look at you..." He said crying.

"I don't care if you are bad or not. I love you. Now breathe." He ended up to be relax. We went in the shower and we stayed there a moment. He didn't looked at me or touched me. He's ashamed of him. He didn't saw my face without makeup neither and I am not ready.

He quickly washed his body and got out of the shower. He left the bathroom only in his towel, looking mad again. I finished to wash my body and I got out of the shower to see what he was doing. I just grabbed my towel and put it on. "Grayson?" I yelled.

"In the room." He replied. In the room, he was searching for something. Probably drugs, I don't know.

"What are you doing?" I asked confused

"Cleaning."

"Well everything is on the ground you don't clean, you're making a mess." I answered.

"Yes I do." He picked up a weird little box and throw it in our garbage. After this he took 2 bags of pills and throw them in the garbage. He looked everywhere to see if nothing was missing. "What was in the box?" I asked.

"Brown sugar. Weed. Cocaine and even more." He said honestly.

"Why are you all throwing this in the garbage?"

"Because I love someone more than I love these shit and if I continue in this way I will be able to kill her. And I don't want that even if I already fucked up."

He randomly punched in the wall and started crying. He fell on the ground and I sit next to him.

Ethan P.O.V.

"We need to go home." I said to Ari and my parents.

"Why?" My parents asked.

"Because I texted Gray 100 times and he doesn't reply. He told me they were going back home and-"

"Short way, they might be in a fight right now." We paid for our parents and told them to join us. It was so calm arrived at the house... which is weird.

The first thing we saw when we entered Grayson's room is him sitting on the ground. His head on Beth. Her arms are around him. Both only in towel. I am not really comfortable and it's the first time I saw Beth arms and face... She is literally full of bruises. I never thought my brother could do this.

"Ethan?" Beth state as a question.

"Uhm, yea what?"

"Can you take the garbage outside?" She asked.

"Yea?" I look at her confused while she looked at me with a little smile and tears. I understood.

Gray finally opened his eyes. He needed to see her in this state to realize.
