I arrive home at exactly 6:30pm. "Could the day just be over". I let out a long, depressing sigh as i walk into the front door. I was welcomed by one of the maids at the door. I enter into the living room and as usual; it was empty. My dad was away on a business trip and my sister was probably wasting her life somewhere. I huff at the thought.

" Welcome ma'am" she greeted and i just nod as i head straight to my room. Was too tired to reply.
Getting to my room, i take off my clothes and quickly shower. I change into my comfortable pj's. I needed something to get my mind off Grayson so i grab my favourite book from the bookshelf and slump down on the bed.
After some time, i look at my wrist watch and realize i have been reading for the past two hours. I close the book and place it on the nightstand. Immediately my mind drifts back to everything that occurred today. I just wish things were different between Grayson and i. I miss him and i really want to be with him. If only things weren't so complicating. I was deep in thoughts when suddenly my phone rang making me jump. I look at the caller ID, it was Grayson. I panic, with so many questions  flooding in my head. Why is he calling? Is he still angry at me? Is he calling to apologize for what happened earlier? . Only one way to find out. I take a deep breath and pick the call.

" Hey" He says in a low, soft voice.

" Hi" i reply nervously with my lip in between my teeth. Silence fills the room making me more nervous and somehow i could picture him running his fingers through his hair. I break the silence.

" I'm sorry for making you upset. I know it's difficult to deal with all the rules" I say apologetically hoping he understands.

" No, i..i..i'm sorry for acting like an immature jerk. He stutters and i widen my eyes in shock. Did the almighty Grayson just apologize?. That's a first and i'm sure he felt awkward judging from the way he stuttered. " I know your dad has some rules set for you and you love him too much to disobey him" He adds and a huge smile forms on my lips,  Even though he couldn't see it.

" So...... What now? I ask frantically. He exhales deeply

" Actually, i'm waiting for you at the back gate. Get ready and come out before your guards shoot me..... I'll drop you off before midnight" He says quietly as i hear the guards discussing in the background. Realization hits me

" Wait, What?" He hangs up. I spring out of my bed and head straight to my closet. "Shit, what do i wear" I curse loudly as i fidget through my clothes. Not like there's a dress code or anything. I pull out a yellow T-shirt and jeans and get changed into it. I look at the mirror and scoff at the sight, "you sure know how to dress SelenaI say sarcastically as i stare at the image in front of me. "You know Grayson is going to complain about your outfit" My subconscious reminds me and i roll my eyes. I grab the comb from the dresser and start to fix my hair, afterwards i apply mascara to my lashes and moisture to my lips. Satisfied with my look, i pick up my cellphone and purse and head straight for the door. I slip my feet into a pair of black flats lying in front of my door and run downstairs quietly. I stop halfway on the stairs to check if the coast is clear. When i see no one, i sneak out from the back door and make my way to the gate.

There he was looking breathtaking as always. He had on a coffee brown shirt which was buttoned up halfway, revealing his hairy, masculine chest and a pair of jeans. His hands were tucked perfectly into his pockets as he kept pacing up and down beside a white sports car. 

" Hey" I say hugging him from behind making him startle and i laugh. He turns and picks me up by my waist. I squeal

" I missed you so much" He says kissing my cheek and i blush.
