"The line is so long, why does everybody want a stupid burger today." Emma whines as we pull into in-n-out.

"I don't know." Ethan whines back.

"Looks like we're going inside." Grayson says finally.

I shake my head no quickly.
"No, I don't want to get up." I hit my head against Emma's chair.

Ethan parks the car and begins to take off his seatbelt.
"You can just stay in the car then."

Emma shakes her head in agreement and begins to get out the car.

"Aww you're so kind." I say as I lay back in the car seat and make myself comfortable.

"What do you want?" Ethan ask.

"A double double hamburger with grilled onions and fries, with some special sauce packets on the side." I say smiling brightly.

Emma gasps loudly.
"They have secret sauce packets."

"Yes they do kitty girl."

"Oh yes!" Emma says before jumping out the car and shutting the door.

"I want a double double cheeseburger with fries and the special sauce. Also a vanilla shake would be nice." Grayson says leaning in.

'Wait what'

"You're staying in here too?" Ethan asks surprised. I stare at Grayson, just as shocked as Ethan.

"Yeah." Grayson says before turning to look at me.

'It's not fair, his gaze still has this much of an effect on me'

I feel a blush form on my face as I pointedly look at Ethan, totally swerving Grayson's eyes.

"Actually maybe I'll just-" I try to find my way out of this trap but I'm cut off before I can finish my sentence.

"Go Ethan, Emma is waiting for you at the door." Grayson says while waving his hand, dismissing him completely.
He totally just cut me off on purpose and that is not ok.

"Oh yeah!" Ethan says before quickly closing the door and running to the entrance of in-n-out. Pussy whipped bastard.

'You're one to talk'

I'm stuck here with Grayson Bailey Dolan, fuck me. I scoot closer to the door and face my entire body in the direction of the window. I may be stuck here with him but that doesn't mean we have to make conversation.

I hear Grayson sigh beside me.
"James."
I'll just act like I can't hear him. Yeah we're just not gonna answer. Good plan.

"James." Grayson says again louder.
I sigh and unbuckle my seatbelt. I lift from my seat and reach for the glove compartment.

'Phone, I just need my phone'

Before I can reach it I feel hands circle my waist tightly and pull my ass back down to the seat. Suddenly I'm met with a whole lot of Grayson as he circles his upper body to the front of me, resting his hand on Emma's chair and successfully trapping me between him and the chair I'm sitting on.

"What the hell Grayson." I say quietly as I look down at my fingers.

"James can you please just look at me?" Grayson says frustratedly.

"I don't have to." I say shrugging.

'Stubborn level 1000'

"James." Grayson practically shouts. I finally look him in the eye and I almost fall apart. This cannot be good for my health I swear.

"What Grayson? What the hell do you want from me?" I say exaggeratedly. I'm really trying to keep myself together right now but It's so hard. How can you look at someone and be so relieved and sad at the same time. So angry but happy that you finally just get to take it all in.

"I want you to stop ignoring me. I want you to stop acting distant." Grayson says sighing.

"Well I guess we all just can't get what we want." I say while crossing my arms.

"James you know I never meant to hurt yo-"

"But you did!" I say, finally just letting it out.

"I mean how did you think I would feel after you had your fun then tossed me aside?"

"James-" Grayson begins to say but I cut him off.

"Why would you even do that?" I say as tears begin to form in my eyes.

"Ja-"

"Why would you even do something like that with me if you didn't have feelings? I know I started it but any rational straight guy probably would've pushed me off, maybe even beat me up a little. They wouldn't completely take over and continue it."

"James-"

"Was I just an experiment to you or something?" I say as the tears finally begin to roll down my face.

"James, please stop crying okay?" Grayson says defeatedly.

"I'm sorry, I-I never wanted to make you feel this way and I'm sorry." Grayson begins to wipe the tears from my eyes with his thumb as he continues talking.

"I don't know why I did that with you, to you, it just felt right. I don't know- I don't know what's going on with me." He says quietly.

"But I know I'm straight James, I've never had any intimate feelings for a male." He says looking at me intensely.

I scoff loudly.
"That explains so much." I say sarcastically as I look away from him.
Grayson slowly sits back in his own seat.

"James-"

"WE'RE BACK!" Ethan yells as he opens the door.

"AND WE HAVE FOOD!" Emma yells as she jumps in her seat with 4 shakes.

"Yay." I say blandly as I slouch in my seat and turn my head to the window.

"What's with the mood here?" Ethan says suspiciously.

"Nothing. Let's just go." Grayson says forcefully leaving no room for an answer. I take a peek at him and it's obvious he's upset, his jaw is clenched tightly and he's looking out his own window. Ethan looks at me questionably and I just shrug my shoulders, faking ignorance, and turn to my window.

'Should've drove my Tesla off the cliff'
