I woke up around 2 today and I walked out into the living room to see Elle with the boys on the couches. Elle and gray were cuddled up while E was sitting alone holding a pillow. I walked up behind the couch he was on and wrapped my arms around his neck.

When Ethan realized it was me he hopped over the couch and hugged me. I grabbed some of the food they brought over and laid on the couch next to E. We honestly had a chill day and watched movies with them. Around 7 I made dinner for the four of us and we continued our lazy day.

It's about 2 in the morning and I'm lying on the floor, gray is gone and Elle is asleep on the couch with Ari. I get up and look around the place to see where Grayson went. I didn't see him anywhere. Right as I was going to call him I see his phone on the counter. This is really weird he never just leaves especially without his phone.

I try not to think about it I'm sure he's fine. I drift back off to sleep. Around 5 I hear my phone ringing and it's an unknown number, I answer.

"Hello is this Ethan Dolan?"

"Um, yes, who am I speaking to? I try to be professional.

"We are to inform you about Grayson Dolan, he was in an accident, he's doing well nothing major."

I didn't think I grabbed arias keys off the hook and took her jeep. I sped to the hospital as fast as I literally could. When I get there he was in the waiting room of the ER with bruises on his face and his arm was defiantly broken. I run over to him to see what happened.

"Dude what did you do?"

"I don't even know, man I was just riding around and someone t-boned me." He said with tears in his eyes.

"Please don't tell Elle, he says as the tear falls."

"I won't, man it's okay, you're going to be okay," I reassure him.

They take him back and put him in a cast and clean up his cuts from the glass. I take him back to our house and get him situated and then I get a call from Aria.

"Ethan have you seen my car?!" I can hear the anger and fear in her voice it made my stomach turn.

"Yes baby, I have it gray had a small accident but please don't say anything to Elle, he wants to talk to her first."

She sighs with relief but questions what happened but I couldn't tell her, not yet. I tell her it will be okay and she hangs up. I know she's one, not happy I took her jeep and two, mad I won't tell her what's up. I drive back to their place to take the jeep back and I walk in to see Elle on the couch crying, she told her. I went over and comforted her and told her he was fine just broke his arm and has some cuts and bruises. She cleaned herself up and I told her they could come back with me so she could see him and I kind of needed a way home.

As soon as we got to our house Elle ran to his room to see him. Aria pulled me aside and told me it wasn't cool of me to take her car and then not tell her what was going on. I respect that but I didn't want them to freak out because it was nothing serious. She told me we need to just communicate whether it's good or bad and I understand that. I apologized for it and kissed her forehead. I walked back to Gray's room to see him and Elle both asleep holding each other. I guess she's staying and we honestly all need rest. I go motion for Ari to come back to my room with me and she immediately goes for my closet. I wonder what ill be missing this time.

I grab one of Ethan's hoodies and slip in onbefore crawling in bed with him. We sort of just laid there in awe of eachother's presence. We didn't talk, we didn't need to, we were just happy. I lookedup at him as he looked at the ceiling and I kissed his jawline. He looked downand kissed the side of my head. I wish I never had to leave this.
