chapter 43

2 weeks later

rose;

"babe, are you ready?" i yelled asking him.

today was the day i officially meet grayson with his boyfriend along with ethan's mother. he insisted in having my parents over but i only got my mom to come. after the whole incident i stopped talking to my dad completely. i still live with him but we both pretend we don't see each other in the house.

my mom is still trying to get him to apologize but he won't budge. i don't even need to him to say sorry because he's nothing to me after that, i just hope he sees what he said to me did hurt.

"yes," he tells me walking in the room all dressed up for the guests later. he walks over to me wrapping his hands around my waist as we both look in the mirror.

he spins me around pulling me in closer to him. he places a kiss on my forehead. he looks at me with a huge smile on his face blushing.

"are you going to blush? the ethan dolan is blushing?" i taunt him

he's holding onto his laughter keeping inside. but before he can say anything the doorbell goes off. "i'll get it," i said it before he did

i run to the door opening it seeing grayson and his boyfriend jace. they were holding their hands smiling at us. "hi, you must be grayson and jace," i smiled

"oh, please come in," i laughed

grayson smiles at me awkwardly not knowing what to say to. "we brought this," jace hands me a gift bag with desserts inside.

"thank you," i tell both of them. they both walk in one after another. jace was behind grayson watching his step being really careful where he stepped.

jace takes a seat on the kitchen but grayson stays standing look around him. "do you want me to call ethan?" i asked him hoping he would calm a little once he seen his brother or talked to him

he nods smiling at me. you can see how nervous he was to be here.

i walk to the room where ethan was at. "babe, he's here," i said

he looks back at me frowning. "are you okay?" i go over to him crouching on my knees. "baby," i called out hoping for an answer from him

"what if he doesn't like it here? i don't want to drive him away like i almost drove you away," his voice croaks making my heart shatter into a million pieces hearing him talk like that

i grab him by his chin making him look up at me. "it's going to be fine, he's going to like it here don't worry about that. you didn't drive me away i'm still here baby, i'm glad i stayed with you. this is one of the best choices i made and i don't take it back," i kiss him

he smiles. "what would i do without you," he breathes out finally getting up from the bed.

he holds out his hand for me as we wrap our hands together we walk out to the living room. "hi." they said in unison

and just like that grayson comes and hugs him like this is the first time they ever met. as if life depended on it. "i missed you," grayson breathes out followed by a cry

"grayson?" we turn around to see their mom standing in the doorway touching her belly.

we stood there quiet and awkward letting the silence taking over the whole room. you can see how unprepared we were for this by our body language. "you must be ethan's mom," i greet her in her own home but this is the first time i meet her
