I opened my eyes and sunlight was filling my room. The morning sun makes me think of Ethan so bright and adventurous but the starry nights always reminds me of Grayson bright but mysterious.
I was way to harsh on Gray yesterday I need to go over and apologize.
I hopped out of bed and threw on my shorts and T-shirt. When I walked downstairs my dad was sitting at the table.
"Good morning darling what are you doing today?"
"Nothing much just need to go talk to Grayson."
"Oh the neighbor, you to have been talking a lot."
I nodded and walked out the door.
I stepped up the porch steps and knocked on the door. Their mom answered, "hey sweetheart!" She said.
"Hi Mrs.dolan." I could see that Grayson was sitting at the kitchen table eating he turned around to look at me.
She guided me inside, Grayson cleared his throat and smiled.
"Hey Gray, can we talk?"
He nodded and walked out onto the porch. We both sat down on one of the chairs.
He bent down and put in face in the palms of his hands. I could tell he was frustrated.
I just silently whispered,"I know."
"What am I going to do Tayla?"
"Ethan's a miserable reck and he said he's in love with you and I don't know what to do." He was talking so fast he couldn't catch his breath.
I got up and rubbed his shoulders, "everything's going to be okay gray."
It was quiet.
"Let's get out of here for a while." He said breaking the silence.
"What do you mean?"
"Can we go on a walk?"
I nodded.
We made our way out of the neighborhood. We were talking so much we lost track of where we were going.
We stopped at a small park, nobody was there. Grayson sat down on the bench and I sat next to him with my legs hanging over his.
"You know I love you right?" He said.
"What's with us confessing our love to each other on park benches?" I said laughing.
"Tayla, I'm so sorry."
"For what?"
"For everything me and Ethan have done to you."
"You know I still love you guys." I said.
"yeah, I guess. But really nobody deserves this, like at all." he looked down at his shoes. I could tell how sorry he was and it's very hard to stay mad at a Dolan, trust me.
"It's fine Grayson."
He smiled.
"you mean a lot to me Tayla. You understand that right?"
I just smiled and kept walking with him.
"so uh I guess ill get going then."
The truth was a didn't really want him to go, even though he is a jerk sometimes and its hard to put up with him, I liked being with him.
"No Gray."
"No?"
"I mean uh, do you wan't to go do something?" I said nervously.
His face turned bright red and he nodded.
"Well wait there was something I have been wanting to ask you." He said.
I smiled and nodded.
"Well me and my family are going on a trip to the Florida Keys and they said me and Ethan can each bring one person. Would you wan't to go with me?"
Just what I need a trip with two boys who can't stop fighting over me.Great.
"Thank you so much Gray for choosing me but i'm going to need some time to think about this. How many days?"
"A week."
I told him I need time to think about this even though I already know I wan't to go. But what about Ethan. Ugh but what about Ethan, Why do I always have to think "What about Ethan." Every time me and Grayson I have to think about how Ethan will react.
I'm going on this trip to Florida and there's nothing Ethan can do to ruin it.
I hope.
