Hawaiian broken hearts

Chapter 11- Partners in crime

We raced to the water at his request, he was faster but he gave me 5 seconds of advantage so I actually won. In your face Gray!

He ran pass me into the ocean and dove right in while I wet just my feet to teste the temperature, but it was so good, I was in the water in no time.

"Gray this is so beautiful, look how clear the water is. I could stay here forever I swear" he had a huge smile on his face while he was listening to me rant. He got closer and closer, I decided to pretend I didn't notice cause I thought he was making a move on me.

But instead he picked me up outside the water, as if I were a feather and he threw me in the water again

"Grays-" I manage to tell before I was submerged. This little bitch!
I came up and started chasing him while we both laughed. He was impossible to catch so I had a better idea (I did this to my boyfriend and he almost had a heart attack btw, don't recommend c: )

He was a good distance from me know, in the deeper ocean, which was perfect for what I was about to do. I pretend to trip and fell, face down, in the water. But instead of coming up I just stayed in that position. My ears were surprisingly out of the water so I could hear everything. He took a while to even realize.

Then I heard him scream my name, and immediately sounds of him desperately swimming filled the air. Poor Gray. This prank war we got going on was going too far, some would say. Not me tho.

When he got to me he turned me around in the water and held me with one arm while using his other hand to grab my cheeks. I couldn't hold my laugh in and broke character.

"Oh you bitch ass" he said mad and started splashing water in my face, almost making me actually drown. Not really but you get the picture.

"Sorry sorry, that was mean! I'm sorry" I yelled and he was laughing so much, he looked so beautiful like this. In this moment all I wanted was to freeze this image in my head forever.

I looked at the house and Kyle was in the balcony filming us, to an outsider this must look so creepy. They really do have weird jobs. I wonder if he was sad seeing me like this with Gray. I know I told Gray we shouldn't stop being ourselves just because of him but now I was doubting that myself. Even tho I shouldn't.

"Let's get some ice cones!" Gray looked like a kid. He ran to the house and came back with his wallet so we could go to this ice cone stand. He got two for us and I thanked him, we sat down on the sand and he said "you're welcome" and just took two massive bites out of both of them

"Hey!!!" He laughed and handed me mine which now had a bite mark and I have him a death stare "you deserved it" he stated and I agreed.

They all joined us soon after, including Kristina's friend. They ended up deciding she would stay with us in the house so she could enjoy her time with Kristina. Kyle would be staying on the couch, which seemed very confy actually, so Kayla could have the room.

The feeling of knowing that now Gray sleeping on the couch wasn't an option relieved me. And made me nervous at the same time. I hated myself for even focusing on this or even thinking about it but it was inevitable. His lips were red and puffy from the ice cone and his cheeks rosy from the sun.

His hair was noe dry and had these beautiful golden curls in the front. He looked like he was straight out of a movie. He noticed I was looking at him and gave me a cute smile, I was expecting a joke but I'm glad he didn't since our friends were there.

I wasn't following the conversation but they were talking about New York for some reason.

"It was so cold when I went there, (y/n) hair actually froze..." Kyle started telling the story and then stopped himself, as if he has forgotten about what happened. I decided to say something not to leave the conversation in this weird tone.

"Oh yeah, I ended up buying a jacket there cause the one I packed wasn't warm enough. It was fun but I'm never going in the winter again. It's torture. I come from such a sunny place, no sir thank you very much" oh God I'm so cringy, thank God for Ethan. He still laughed at me but kept the conversation going and talked about the time they came to Portugal with me. They loved that week and keep saying they want to go again.

"Portugal? That's a city in Spain right?" Kayla asked. I swear american people only study the USA in geography...

"It's actually a country next to Spain, like the west end of Europe" Kyle explained calmly, gesturing his invisible air map. I miss when he would explain things like that to me. I was always learning with him. She was smiling so much at him, I couldn't even listen to the conversation, all I could think about was her happy face while they both talked and how that used to be me.

"(Y/n)?" I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard Kristina's voice "wanna go for a swim?" She knew. She knows me too well. I took her hand as she helped me up and we went together

"I know it's hard babe. It kills me seeing you like this" she said in a sweet tone as a tear streamed down my face. "Thank you for taking me out of there tho. You're the best." She gave me a big hug.

We joked around in the water while we talked, since I hadn't had an alone moment with her since she got here and I missed out conversations. She kept teasing me about Grayson, saying he was looking at me the whole time and claiming she knew the "brightness" in our eyes. She wasn't wrong she was just annoying. But I love her.

We spent the day chilling, went to a local restaurant to eat and explored a little bit of the island. We found a waterfall but decided to save it for tomorrow. Grayson pinned it on his maps so we wouldn't lose the location and we headed home.

At night they lit a fire outside, there was a fireplace with some logs around it for us to seat and it was the nicest spot. I posted a story of it and started watching the other story's I posted throughout the day. They were so fun, I caught Ethan falling while skateboarding in a rocky road and it was the funniest video ever.

I decided to text David asking for Luna, I hope she's not giving them a hard time, but he said everything was fine and told me he thought my story was really funny. The logs were kinda small so we were sitting two people in each. Kayla was sitting with me and Kyle was in the next one sitting with gray.

Since we were in a circle around the fire I could see Gray's exited little face while he was telling Ethan and Kristina something. Kyle and Kayla kept talking like they did the entire day it was annoying me. Even tho I shouldn't care. She laughed at something he said and leaned over to rest her head on his shoulder, just for a brief moment. This was bothering me so much. There was only one thing to do...
