Alex

I studied will, who was inside our holding cell. It's in the basement of the mansion and has bulletproof glass around it.   

I felt my blood pressure go up just looking at the man before me. He was sitting on a chair staring back at me.

"if you're thinking about killing him for the third time, don't." Theo appeared beside me. I rolled my eyes, but I didn't take them off of Will. "It's not just him that im thinking about killing." I retorted, looking directly at Theo this time. 

"Look, I'm not going to say im sorry for locking you up. you gave me no choice." he turned in my direction and I did the same. "You've been extremely impulsive lately and it was going to get you killed. I had no choice," he added, and I crossed my arms.

"If I hadn't been there tonight you all could have ended up dead, murderous rage or not," I responded honestly. "Now what are we gonna do about him?" I asked, changing the subject. 

"Larce is coming by tomorrow to get him, from there I don't know what he is going to do," he spoke honestly and I tensed up.

"Larce is coming here, like tomorrow?" I repeated what he said and he nodded. "yeah." he responded.

"You're kidding." I groaned, and Theo laughed. "Well, I am going to go upstairs and get some sleep." I patted theo's arm and he nodded. "night."

"Night cupcake." Will winked at me, and I shot him the middle finger. 

I walked up the stairs slowly, I was genuinely worn out. I just can't wait to get out of this leather jumpsuit and into a t-shirt.

I walked down the hallway and saw Grayson's door open. I peaked in there and saw him laying on his bed, staring at the ceiling. he had a white bandage across his bare stomach from tonight's events.

I knocked on the door quietly and he looked at me. "come in." he responded, and I walked in. I sat on the end of his bed and looked at him.

"You guys were stupid tonight." I began, and he continued staring at the ceiling.

"I'm fine by the way." he glanced at me slightly after he spoke, then continued gazing at the ceiling.

"You guys shouldn't have gone in there without me. You could have been killed." I spoke again looking at him intently. He sat up quickly, it almost startled me.

"We only did what you are constantly doing every single day Alex." he responded, almost yelling at me. 

"Well, yeah Grayson, that is my job." I argued and he scoffed. "So it's okay for you to risk your life for the people you love but I ca- we can't?" he argued with me back and I let out a breath.

"I didn't come in here to argue with you. I came in here to tell you to stop being stupid, along with the rest of you." I stood up angrily and walked towards the door.

"You acted like you didn't care." he spoke again, making me turn around. "what?" I asked, confused.

"You looked directly at me when there was blood pouring off me, you didn't even flinch." he shrugged, and I looked to the side.
