"So he's really not coming?" I asked Grayson as he started packing his bags so he could stay over.
"Nope, hes in a mood today." He admitted. I rolled my eyes in annoyance.
"God, I've been gone for over a year and he seriously can't spend a day with me? It's a joke." I huffed and sat down on his bed. Grayson looked at me and smiled sympathetically before shutting his drawers and doing up his bag.
"Ready?" He asked.
"Yep. Let's go." I stood up and walked out, Leaving him to grab his last few things out of his room.
I walked down the hall, closer to the stairs, only to be greeted by Ethan.
"You okay?" He asked me. I looked up and saw his puffy eyes. He was either sleepy or had been crying.
"Mmhmm." I nodded.
"Good." He smiled, but it wasn't genuine, it looked like he struggled to do so. "Look Emma I'm really sorry about last night, it was wrong of me to chose Olivia over you. And I'm sorry I didn't tell you about her." He sighed looking down at the ground. I felt how sad he was, I knew him too well.
"Why didn't you?" I asked.
"I thought you'd be angry, and upset." He admitted.
"Why would I?" I questioned. I knew it was because of the kiss.
"Uh.. I don't know... I just- have a good day yeh?" He said before storming back into his room.
I sighed and realised how far gone he was. How we really weren't going to get our relationship back.
"Hey Shall we go?" Gray asked finally walking out of his room.
"Yep." I said, popping the P.

Later on that day, Me and Grayson were sat on my bed. Our bodies were quite close, but nothing I was uncomfortable with. His hand was rested on my leg, the pad of his thumb making small circles. The television was on, but neither of us really paying  attention, we were both more concerned with our phones. I sat up a bit and wrapped my arm around his neck before running my fingers through his dark brown hair.
"Mhmmm..." he tilted his head back.
"You always made me do this at sleepovers when you couldn't get to sleep."
"Oh god I love it." He said, his eyes shutting, mouth agape.
My finger tips grasped and grabbed lightly at the stands, twiddling them between my fingers. His thumb How now stopped rubbing my tigh and I knew he was in a euphoric state.
"Grayson?"
"Yeah." He said, still not opening his eyes to look at me.
"Why don't you have a girlfriend?" I asked.
His eyes shot open. My hand slowly came to a halt.
"I think I like someone, but I'm not sure, and I didn't want to waste my time with someone who I knew wasn't the one." He answered, looking deep into my eyes.
I nodded and smirked as a response.
I began slowly rubbing my hands through his hair again. I looked at his face and how relaxed it was, I instantly felt a small tension between us, he looked up and me and our faces stopped. I know he felt it to.
"E-Emma." He choked.
Our faces were gradually moving closer, noses almost touching. His breath now fanning my face. I could feel his body heat warming me up. His hand travelled to my cheek and tucked a small piece of hair behind my ear before asking...
"Can I?"
I nodded slightly. Almost hesitantly. I wasn't sure if this was okay. But it felt right.
His eyes closed, along with mine. And his lips brushed against mine. The peck turned into a kiss and both of his hands wrapped around my face, one on my cheek, one on my chin.

Suddenly, everything came rushing back...

"Ethan?"
"Yeh?"
"Can I do something?" Emma asked.
"Like wha-" Ethan didn't have time to finish his sentence before Emma collided her lips with his.
They moved in sync and He had waited for this moment his whole life.
Their body's closer than they'd ever been.
He moved his hands to her face and tucked her beautiful dark locks behind her ear.

I quickly pulled away.
"I-" his face dropped when he saw how sad I looked.
"Did I do something? Sorry I over stepped I don't know what came over me." He moved away from me and put his hands over his face.
"Oh no Gray it's not you, I just- wasn't expecting us to do that." I twiddled my thumbs awkwardly not knowing what to say next.
"Yeah me too."
"Shall we just watch the film?" I asked.
"Yeah, lets forget about this." He smiled, but he was hurt. I could tell.
He sat back down on the bed, but he didn't rub my thigh. He was hesitant to touch me.
"Want me to play with your hair?"
"Can do?" He answered.
I Joined my hands back to his scalp and made small circles.
"God I'm tired.." he said.
"Sleep then." I answered.
"But what'll you do if I'm like passed out?"
"I'll sleep too." I smiled. "Just lay your head down." I said, and he did, but not where I expected him to. I shimmied down the bed so I was sort of led down,but still sat up.
Grayson moved his head from the headboard, onto my lap. He wrapped his arms around my legs and dig his head into my thighs, while I continued playing with his hair.

I knew he had drifted of when I heard his heavy breathing, and an occasional snore.
