Grayson hurt the next day, both physically and mentally. She called and called- he did not answer. He simply couldn't.

He participated and he although she started it, could of stopped it but he didn't. He kissed her so intimately throughout aswell. He knew what he was doing.

He understood why Ethan loved his new life. He hated himself for understanding.

Emma never betrayed Grayson. Ever. Loyalty was her biggest strength. She undeniably the most loyal person most people knew. She kept secrets and she always put her others before herself yet he did that.

He felt gross.

He thought about the best way of telling her and one idea came up- not to say a thing to her.

Ethan was right. Who will tell? Emma didn't know anyone there so she wouldn't trust them anyway.

Sweat formed on the back of his neck at the thought. He owed her enough to tell her.

She would leave him straight away and he was scared of that. He depended on her. He needed her.

But it was so selfish.

Grayson

I need her yet I fucked another girl. The first ever time I had sex- I had it with some random nobody. I saved it for Emma.

The outcome of going to an older persons party where everyone is drugged up and horny.

I was laying in pure darkness but I heard my phone ping. I hope it's not another text from Emma. I can't face lying to her.

unknown number: hey... is this grayson xx

Who the fuck?

me: Yes who's this??

I got a text back in seconds.

unknown number: amber, from the other night xx

I felt sick to my stomach. My hands sweating against my hot phone. All the memories from yesterday night came back to me.

"Yeah, Oh my god. You feel so good." She mumbled into my lips as we kissed.

"You're so hot." Looking up at her.

Kissing her felt too good. It made me feel sick.

She came down and whispered into my ear, "Leave her Gray. It'll all be worth it in the end."

"Who?"

I shook my head, coming out of my daze.

me: What's good

I did all that emotional moaning about being scared to loose Emma yet I texted Amber back a fourth for days and days. We FaceTimed and now I'm gonna see her on Saturday night.

And why? I don't know.

It's not date. Just friends. Completely.

Emma

Gray called me and told me he was busy this Saturday. Skipping our movie night.

Being disappointed, I grabbed a snack and went into my room. Mom was on a date night tonight and Olivia was babysitting her baby cousins. Another lonesome night.
