How am I gonna tell Greg I'm leaving and our so called friendship is over.

"Vanessa!"

I'm snapped out of my thoughts by Greg. I say while releasing a deep breath "Greg I have to tell you something."

He looks at me and says "I don't care about anything else right now."

Greg's so insane I wanna tell him about me and barbies deal but he doesn't wanna listen. He steps closer to me and I step back.

He smiles while asking "why are you stepping back?" I reply after a while of silence "Greg I don't wanna slow dance right now. I wanna tell you something very important."

He shakes his head and says "I don't care about what you wanna say Vanessa." he says my name 'Vanessa' while groaning.

I deny by shaking my head then say "don't even dare to come close to me. I wanna get out of here."

He holds his hair while rolling his eyes. He says "remember we made a deal, I would show you the fun side of life and you'll help me pass my academy education."

I completely forgot that I made a deal with Greg and I never back down on a deal.

I unknowingly step closer to Greg and he steps closer to until we're 2 feet apart. He stares in my eyes silently and I avoid looking into his. He asks "have you ever slow danced?" and all I felt was his hot breath which smelt like cherry.

I'm so nervous but why am I nervous?

Greg says pleadingly "hello aren't you gonna answer." I finally say something but without looking into Greg's eyes "I have never ever slow danced in my entire life."

Greg slightly smiles and says "Ill teach you."

He noticed that I'm not looking at him and he asks "why aren't you looking at me Vanessa?" am I so ugly. "

I say while smiling" yes your so ugly thats why I'm not looking at. "

He smiles back and suddenly places his hands around my waist. I slightly jump and Greg immediately says" calm down. "

He continues saying" it's okay this ugly thing will teach you how to slow dance today."

I'm really nervous but I don't really know why. Greg says" place your hands around my shoulders. Promise it's part of the dance. "

I roll my eyes while saying" hope so." and slowly place my hands around Greg's shoulders. He grabs tight to my small waist and pulls me closer until we're a few steps apart. My breathing immediately changes and its not good.

Im breathing heavily because I've never been touched like this before not even by Ben my ex boyfriend. Greg asks" Vanessa why do you look nervous? "

I immediately reply" what are you saying, I'm not nervous your nervous. "

Greg smiles and asks" has Ben ever touched you like this?" his question is outrageous and I'm getting angry.

" Greg it's non of your business. "

He says " yeah yeah I'm sorry for asking. "

He start turning his body around and I follow. I don't know what was happening, but I tried to follow Gregs steps.

He turns some more and I give up. I'm stepping on Greg's feet now but that doesn't stop him from dancing.

He finally stops and says" your a terrible dancer. "

I node my head agreeing to him because his completely right. I hate dancing and I don't think I will ever love dancing.

He lets go of my waist and walks towards a small wooden bench and sits on it. I follow him and sit beside him.

Greg looks at me and asks" do you have a hobby? "

I stare back at Greg and reply" it's certainly not dancing but I have a hobby."

He chuckles" I hope it's not reading or studying."

I smile back and say" studying is not my hobby it's my duty. But my hobby is singing."

Greg release a loud laugh and I stare at him irritated to the core. He says" you love singing. I'm so shocked. "

I stare at the grass now embarrassed, Greg asks " can you sing for me?"

I immediately stand up and say" Im not singing for anyone. I wanna get out of here."

He says" okay okay relax its really late Vanessa."

I grab my phone from my pocket then check the time and It's 10pm. That explains why I'm feeling a little sleepy.

"we'll spend the night here Vanessa. "

I say while staring at the cabin analysing the place carefully. It's like Greg was reading my mind because he said" don't worry this cabin is safe to sleep in. I mean look at it. We'll spend the night here and tomorrow morning we'll leave. "

I node my head agreeing to him and start walking towards the cabin without Greg's approval.

I open the huge wooden door and enter the cabin. There's a huge wooden table in the middle, a red huge couch and at the right corner is a fireplace.
At the left side is a staircase that leads to where ever. Greg enters behind me and says" this is where we'll spend the night. "

I say" got it and head towards the couch then sit while releasing a deep breath.

I'm extremely sleepy and when I'm sleepy I get grampy. Greg closes the door behind him and comes closer to me then sits next to me.

"you're really sleepy right?"

I node my head and reply " yes."

He stands up and says "let me take you to your room."

I immediately stand up and Greg takes me to the room which is upstairs. The cabin is really huge, they are more rooms upstairs that I had no time to count.

Greg takes me into a small room and says "this is the room. Good night."

Tomorrow I have to fulfill the promise I made to Barbie and leave Greg alone.

"good night."

I shut the door and quickly place my heavy body on the bed and without thinking full into a deep sleep.
