Pursuit of Happiness-Grayson Dolan☀️🌴

1.2

July

"You ready baby?" Grayson pokes his head through the door to see how I'm getting on.

I finish tying the knot in my bikini shot and turn around to face him, "pretty much".

"Goddamn" Gray mutters when his eyes take me in "you're so hot".

He walks up to me and places his hands on my hips to pull me against him and starts to press hot kisses all over my cheek and neck.

"Gray..." I sigh, getting breathless from his actions.

Grayson and I have only been together for nearly a month now and so we haven't gone all the way yet. We've been pretty intimate with make out sessions and touching but nothing further than that.

"You know I'm sure Ethan and the guys can wait for a few minutes..." he whispers in my ear and I know exactly what he's talking about "we can fool around for a little while".

"I don't think Ethan likes to be kept waiting and..." I lose all track of words when Grayson slides his hand over one of my ass cheeks and gives it a little squeeze, causing me to giggle.

He chuckles at my reaction and kisses a spot on my neck, "sexy but absolutely adorable".

"I don't like being late to shoots baby" I tell him and remove his wandering hand "its very unprofessional".

Today, Gray and I are going to the beach with Ethan, Bryant and their friends Deon and Juan for that little fun photoshoot we planned back at the twins' gathering.

Bryant told me he wants a lot of cute couple pics of Gray and I, of course they're not going to be posted anywhere online but instead he's gonna give them to Gray and I to keep for ourselves.

We can get started as soon as I can get Gray's hands and lips off me.

"They can wait ten minutes, it won't kill them" his fingers trace over my bikini knot and them being so dangerously close to untying it makes my stomach flip in excitement.

But we can't be late.

I gently place a hand against Gray's chest and push him back a little, "later".

He rolls his eyes but then smiles and kisses me, "okay but you better hold back on the teasing today".

I giggle and boop his nose with my finger, "I'll try but something tells me its not that hard for you to get a little hot and bothered".

He scrunches up his nose and smiles at me, "its not that hard for you to get me very hot and bothered baby".

I feel myself blushing but try to laugh it off, "well just make sure the camera doesn't catch any clear signs that I'm making you hot and bothered or your fans will go into a frenzy, now lets get moving".

"Okay not lets get one with you standing in the shore" Bryant has been taking pictures of me for about five minutes now, giving me a few tips on how to pose but still letting me do my own thing.

I nod and walk down to where the ocean meets the sand, loving the feel of the cool water against the skin of my feet.

I turn to Bryant and pose as the camera clicks, my hair blowing gently against my face and I go to move it.

"Great! I love some candid moments" Bryant smiles from behind the camera "you're a natural Charly".

I smile and my eyes meet with my boyfriend's whose standing behind Bryant as he watches us, a warm glow in his gaze.

"Okay now lets get some ones of you and your man" Bryant then says and looks towards Grayson "of course they'll be private".

Grayson breaks out into a grin and rushes towards me, picking me up in his tanned arms and lifting me up.

"Baby!" I squeal and instantly wrap my legs around him, loving the feel of his heated body pressed against mine.

He just chuckles and presses a kiss to my cheek, a sweet moment which Bryant captures with his camera.

"You guys are adorable!" he praises us.

"Yeah, adorably sickening" Ethan adds and tosses a ball to Deon.

I roll my eyes at him and ruffle Grayson's wavy beach hair.

"Don't be mad that you don't have this bro" Grayson retorts and not in a teasing way "and if you keep the attitude there's a high chance you won't ever".

"Whatever" Ethan flips him off and looks away.

Bryant takes some more pictures of Grayson and I. Him holding me as we kiss, me on his back and squishing his handsome face, us splashing one another with water.

When we're done, Bryant takes some shots of the boys and I lay on the sand so I can appreciate the feel of the sun radiating onto my skin. I sigh to myself and begin to slip into a state of relaxation that the beach brings to me. I soon feel a large shadow cast over me but I keep my eyes closed, knowing fully well whats causing it. I then feel a body close to mine and a kiss on my lips, making me chuckle.

"You have any idea how beautiful you look right now?" Grayson's voice is lower and has a vibration to it.

I arch a brow before opening my eyes, I see Grayson leaning on his elbows as he looks down at me with a look of soft admiration on his face and his hair flopping over his eyes a little.

"No but I'm sure you're gonna tell me all about it" I tease him and he just reaches down to give me another peck on the lips.

"You...look...completely...breath taking..." he tells me between kisses".

I take a moment to appreciate how god like he looks right now, or how he looks all the time but something about him at the beach intensifies that beauty of his. His hair is tousled and curling up, his eyes are glowing in the sunlight and his face is stuck in a smile. The scent of the sea has stuck to his tanned skin and it fills my nose when he gets closer to me, it makes me smile and bury my face in his shoulder.

"Sleep at my place tonight" he suddenly whispers in my ear and I pull away to look at him.

"You...you want me to stay over?".

Grayson nods and wraps a strand of my hair around his finger, "of course".

I bite my lip as I think it over. I've slept at Gray's place once before, the night he filmed his first collab videos with the Sister Squad and it was purely innocent. Lately he's been a little more touchy and hinting towards having sex but I'm not at that place yet. After the way he was before we came to the beach, I'm concerned he'll attempt to get that intimate again.

But I loved sleeping next to him like we did that night. The feel of his warm body against mine made me feel so safe and as if nothing can ever hurt me. I want to feel that again.

Hopefully he just wants to innocently sleep next to each other and nothing else.

I'm not ready for that yet.

I do love the idea of sleeping next to him in the same bed so I smile and nod, earning a bright grin from my boyfriend who presses his lips against mine again.

"Awesome" he whispers and theres a hint of husky in his tone.

Hope hes not getting any scandalous ideas...
