Do you sometimes wish that maybe someday, you'll tell your crush you like them and they text you back and say I like you too. Then you go on dates and then be together, all your dreams just came true by being with your crush. Yeah, I wish that, since, well, when I was 8, I know it's a young age to even think about that but I've really liked this one guy that I don't even know if he knows me.

That guy is Grayson Bailey Dolan, one of the school's golden boys alongside with the other golden boy, Ethan Grant Dolan, his twin. He's the youngest of all the Dolan siblings. He's the most popular guy in school with Ethan, yet no one knows anything about him. I hope that changes.

"Y/N, come on!" Brianna pouts, dragging me through the corridors and I try to hold on to the lockers trying to stop myself getting dragged.

"I don't want to!" I drag, but she continues on and groans.

"Come on, I'll help you if you don't understand it." Brianna smiles pushing me to the classroom, we were now in Calculus, the subject I despise the most out of all.

I shoot Brianna daggers and saw that a guy came in, my jaw dropped. It was Grayson Dolan, he took a seat a couple seats away from me, the first row and second from the left.

We talked about Calculus things which I didn't even understand, I didn't bother comprehend. I just studied Grayson —for being such a popular guy, why is he this private, he's not that private but he doesn't talk about love, that's all.

Then he turns around and sees me staring, he smiles at me and I crimson, turning to Brianna, she just smiles at me widely. Then class ended, I started to gather my things up until I felt a tap on my shoulder I  turn around to see Grayson.

"Hi, I'm Grayson." He smiles when I turn around, I freeze.

"Hey, I'm Y/N." I smile at him.

Suddenly, he looked at his phone and ran out, leaving me clueless.

It's been a couple of days, Grayson talks to me barely, just the normal hi and all. I was just chatting with Brianna until I got a text, hello.

I reply, hey, who is this?

Then my phone rang again, it's Grayson.

How did you get my number? I reply. Showing Brianna the conversation and she squeals, shaking me around,"He likes you!"

After our conversation, we've been texting each other non-stop, for some reason I felt we had a prominent connection. Now, whenever we pass, we call each other.

We've been friends for almost a year and a half now and I've never felt so happy ever. Our conversation was a couple like conversation, I got the thought that maybe he liked me but that's unbelievable.

"Hey Gray. I really want to talk to you." I mumble, getting in his car.

"What is it?" He replies, adjusting the rear view mirror and starting to drive.

"I've been wanting to say this to you but I really like you, Gray. It's wrong for me to say this cause I don't know anything about your status but I just really like you..." I frown, covering my head. I cannot believe that I just said that.

"Wow, Y/N. I like you too but as a friend that's all. I in fact have a girlfriend, it's Laila." Gray replies and I gasp.

"You told me, you weren't together. I specifically asked if you two were and you said no." I gasp and he crimsons.

"Well, she was the one who replied to you." He resonates, I roll my eyes at his excuse.

A stray tear falling from my eye down to my cheek, dreaming that I could be with the man of my dreams, but destiny doesn't want us to be together at least we're friends maybe not after this, why did he choose Laila, why can't it be me? Why can't it be?


Hey I'm sorry if this is so crappy but lately I've been feeling out of place and I can't keep up with school I feel so stupid, attending the best yet public school with every student that passed just could attend. I don't even know why I'm attending to it? I feel like the most stupid student in my class.
