Grayson's pov:
—-
My eyes slowly flutter open to the familiar sight of the daylight creeping through my curtains.
I propped myself up , still huddled in my sheets. I reach my arm over and grab my phone.
{ 11:00 am }
30 unread notifications.
shit.
I've slept in again.
I peel back my sheets, and wander over to the window.
I pull open the curtains and examine the world out side
It was sunny today , and only but 3 small clouds were visible.
My attention was then drawn to the sound of laughter coming from down the hall.
I slowly make my way , and as I approach I make out the voices of James and Emma.
"He's finally awake!" Ethan says
I give him a small grin.
"About time, you hibernating in there huh?" James sasses me.
"Just tired I guess" I reply.
"Well get dressed then sleepyhead , we are going to the beach today" James exclaims, turning back to Emma after to talk about their new swimsuits and the tans they were going to get.
I got changed into a pair of swimming shorts , adding a plain shirt.
I didn't know how I felt about going to the beach today.
~
We arrived at the beach almost an hour later , because of James and Ethan arguing again.
We set up an area in the dry sand to place our stuff. Heaping bags on top of towels and a huge picnic blanket.
I decided to go for a swim while the others ate.
The suns gaze was harsh against my skin which made the cool water ever more pleasant.
I let the water engulf me and floated on my back for a while , shifting my arms and legs every moment or so to avoid drifting or sinking for that matter.
I stared up at the sky , and listened to the water lap around me.
Why did I feel so empty?
I thought to myself.
I had friends , I had my family , I had a successful life going for me.
Yet I still felt something was missing.
The salt water deeply soaked my skin , and my thighs began to sting.
they began to burn.
what a stupid mistake I had made.
