Emma's pov:

After a couple days of thinking it over, I have realized and come to the conclusion that I just like Grayson as a friend.

Yes he is a kind, sweet and very understanding guy but I just don't seem him as a boyfriend. He's like an older brother or just like any of my other friends to me.

I have kept in contact with the sister squad while I have been thinking and telling them I have been coming up with YouTube videos since we last seen each other

But today I'm inviting Grayson over so I can tell him how I feel. He did say we can pretend the kiss never happened so I'm sure it will be alright.

It's currently 11 am right now and I'm already dressed for the day and had lunch so I invite Grayson to come over at 12.

Soon it's 12 and I hear a knock on my door

I get off from my bed and go to the door and opening it, revealing a smiling Grayson

Grayson- "hey Emma what's up?"

Emma- "hi Grayson, come in" I smile and let him inside and close the door once he is in

Emma- "so Grayson I think we should talk"

Grayson- "oh you want to talk about what happened between us?"

Emma- "Yeah is that ok?"

Grayson- "Yeah"

We go over and sit at my table

Emma- "listen Grayson.. I have been thinking about it over the past couple days and I have realized that I just like you as a friend. I just don't see myself having you as a boyfriend and just see you like my other friends."

Grayson- "that's ok Emma, I understand" he smiles gently.

It's not a sad smile either, it's a kind and understanding smile.

Emma- "you do?"

Grayson- "Yeah, you can't control how you feel. I'll be alright. I rather have you as a friend than not have you in my life at all" He smiles

Emma- "aw thanks Grayson, it really means a lot" I smile

Grayson- "it's no problem"

We get up and hug

Emma- "you haven't told Ethan or James or anyone about what happened between us right?"

Grayson- "Nope, that just stays between us and we'll pretend it never happened"

Emma- "Good, thanks Grayson" I smile "I didn't need Ethan and James going crazy over it"

Grayson- "me neither" he chuckles

Emma- "cool, so I'll see you guys soon?"

Grayson- "of course" he smiles "you can stop by any time"

Emma- "Alright and same for you guys" I smile
