Bad boy meets depressed girl

Part 6

*knock. knock. knock* i hear on the front door. I pick Violet up, look myself over, and go to answer the door.

"hey" i sigh.

"yo" he says walking into my house".

"i'll show you where my room is. you can get my books out of my backpack" i say walking upstairs as he follows. 

"where's your backpack?" he says looking around.

"in my closet" i say setting Violet on my bed and walking downstairs. 

I walk into the kitchen and grab some milk for violet and some snacks. I start walking back upstairs and hear Violet giggling. I walk into my room and see Grayson tickling her. Maybe he isn't so bad after all.

"mommy!" violet screams running up to me. I pick her up and kiss her cheek.

"this is your daughter?" Grayson asks confused. 

"yeah" i say looking down hoping he won't judge me. 

"she's cute" he says. I look at Violet and she looks at me and smiles.

"thanks. now we should get to work" he nods.

I pull out a piece of lined paper for him and the instructions for the essay. 

"okay. so your writing about kaylee?" i ask pushing my hair out of my face.

"yeah. who are you writing about?" he asks. just that moment i froze and tried to hide my essay. 

"oh um, i don't know yet" i lie.

"yes you do. show me the paper" he says trying to grab it.

"no!" 

"yes!" he says ripping the paper out of my hand. crap. 

i run to the bathroom as he starts to read it and i cry. 

"tatum?" i hear from the other side of the door. I don't answer. He slowly turns the knob and walks in seeing me sitting on the counter with red puffy eyes. 

"do you really feel that way about me?" he says walking up to me.

"y-yes" i stutter. he smiles. i look at the floor but he put my chin up and kissed me.

his soft lips are now against mine. but i pull away.

"this isn't right" i say trying to push him away from me.

"relax roberts. it's just a kiss" 

was it grayson? was it really just a kiss?
