Chronicles of Living with Your Ex: A Grayson Dolan Fanfic

Love Lies

GRAYSON'S POV

"Yeah?" I look her, as her tears dry on her face. She looked away and said, "Never mind." I nodded and closed the door to her room. I walk into our kitchen and pull out some ever clear from the cabinet. I put four shot glasses in a row and filled them to the brim. What she doesn't know is that she screamed Ethan's name not mine. I downed all four shots and poured four more. I repeated the process until the full bottle was gone.

"Fuck. I am out of alcohol!" My words slurred and I giggled some. "I gotta go get more!" I take my keys out of my jacket pocket and put sliders on and left the apartment. I walk down the stairs and laugh when I almost tripped. I check my phone and see that it is midnight. "I am coming for you, Walmart!" I burp and laugh as I tried to stay quite. I finally make it down the stairs and to my car. I look at my keys and realized I only grabbed my apartment keys, not my car keys. "Fuck, I guess I will walk." I start heading down the sidewalk to Walmart. I finally get there and I started to walk across the street until everything went black.

ETHAN'S POV

I woke up when I heard my ringtone started to go off, and I look at the time. Who the fuck is calling me at 1:45am? I reluctantly pick up.

Ethan: "Hello?"

Unknown: "Hello, is this Ethan?"

Ethan: "Speaking. Who is this?"

Unknown: "Hello, Ethan. This is Victoria from St. Martin's Intensive Care Unit. Do you know a, Grayson Dolan?"

I sat up immediately.

Ethan: "Yes, I do. Why? Is everything okay?"

Victoria: "How fast can you make it to St. Martin's?"

I run my hand through my hair.

Ethan: "I am not in the state, but I will be there soon. I will send his roommate there immediately."

Victoria: "Is his roommate, Charlie?"

Ethan: "Yes."

Victoria: "He specifically asked for me not to notify him."

Ethan: "Her, and I don't give a fuck what he said. I will call her."

Victoria: "Okay."

With that I hung up the phone with Victoria and called Charlotte. She answered surprisingly.

Charlotte: "Ethan, I was sleeping. What do you want? I told you what we had is over. Please respect that."

Ethan: "Char, this isn't about us. Grayson is in trouble. He is in the ICU at St. Martin.

Charlotte: "WHAT?! I will be there in a second."

Ethan: "He told them not to tell you, so I will be on the next flight. Do not see him without me. Okay? See you soon." 

CHARLOTTE'S POV

I don't care what he wants. I have to make sure he is okay. I put on my clothes and open my door. A small note feel down in front of me. I read it.

Hey Charlotte,

I ran out of alcohol, so I am going to get more. You are probably wondering why I was drinking. Well, when you were asleep, you didn't scream my name. You screamed Ethan's. I am tired of being second best. I have given you all of me, and you reject me every time. I am done. I am sorry, but I am done trying. I hope you understand.

Love,

Second Best

Grayson

I fall to the ground and pull myself into a ball. I am the reason he was hit. He drank to forget about me. I threw the note. I can't do this anymore. I can't take this anymore. I know what I have to do. I go straight into his room and looked around until I found it. It is time to make things better.
