Black and Grey | Book 1

Chapter 4

I woke up in Grayson's room, surrounded by everlasting darkness. The bright blue light was still on and gave a soft blue hew to the whole room. The black curtains went well with the room and I honestly felt like I could stay here forever.

But I obviously wouldn't.

I decided to finally get up out of the bed, which I had a good sleep on, and decided to get ready. I only then realised that I didn't have a toothbrush, money or any clothes.

I sighed, I didn't even know what I had dragged myself into. I just wish I could go back home and pretend nothing even happened, but that's obviously not possible.

But why was I still here?

I decided to go to the living room to check if Grayson was awake. I walked in and was surprised to see a shirtless Grayson. He was still wearing his trousers. My cheeks heated up and I looked away just as he looked at me.

"There's a spare toothbrush in the toilet in the cabinet and I'll grab you some clothes." He said and walked past me back into his room.
I followed him in and he passed me the clothes.

I nervously looked at him, my eyes scanning his well-toned torso for a second before averting my eyes again.

"When can I go back home?" I asked and he snapped his gaze towards me and narrowed his eyes. He looked frustrated.

Shit.

"Just get ready and I'll make some food, then I'll answer any questions you want to know." He answered, looking down at the floor and walked out.

I got ready for the day and ran my hands through my hair to untangle it as best as I could. I grabbed my phone and answered back to some messages and checked my notifications.

I wondered where Zara was and if Ethan actually took her home.

Was it true what Grayson was saying about Zara?

Surely it couldn't be.

I know Zara. I've known her for a few years now. She wouldn't go behind my back. However, the thing that doesn't make sense is how does Grayson know her? Zara has never mentioned anything new and even that day in the cafe, she looked like she didn't know him.

Maybe they got me and Zara mixed up with someone else and would send us back home?

It's wishful thinking at this point.

I walked to the kitchen to still see Grayson shirtless, but he was making some pancakes.

He looks hot.

Shut up brain.

I shook my thoughts out of my head and cleared my throat to make him aware of my presence. Grayson looked over his shoulders and I couldn't help but glance at his muscles which flexed as he did. I quickly looked back at him to see him staring at me intensely.

"Just take a seat, I'm nearly done with the pancakes." He motioned to the dining table.

I went ahead and sat and waited for him to finish. I set my phone on the table as he gave me a plate which already had two pancakes on it. We started eating in silence when out of the blue, my phone started to ring.

I glanced down at the caller ID and Zara's name appeared. I was about to pick it up, but Grayson stopped me.

"Who is it?" He asked.
"Zara." I replied back and he glared at me.
"Delete her number." He said as I picked up my phone.
"What? No." I replied back. I was about answer her call, but my phone got snatched out of my hand.
"What are you doing?!" I shouted at him exasperated.
