Greyson (Lightening Series Book One)

Chapter Fourteen

The rest of the boys finally got up and had something to eat, leaving shortly after to head back to their rooms to shower. It was now only myself and Grey sitting across from one another on stools, now on our second cup of coffee.

I had some some scramble and skipped out on the bacon and toast, Grey however stacked his plate high before scoffing it all and demanding me to have more.

"Emily...Listen we need to talk." He sighed, wiping his lips with a napkin and pushing his plate to the side.

"Sure go for it." I replied anxious to hear what he was going to say to me, I had finished my food so I just took a sip of my coffee and gave him eye contact.

"I don't want whatever is going on here, to hurt you." Was he admitting there was something? "That's not my intention." He told me seriously as I have a small nod.

"I understand." I replied quietly.

"However, you need to understand a few things to avoid yourself from being hurt." He sighed, "I don't want a relationship Ems nor do I want to date." My heart sank but I nodded again slowly anyways.

"Understood." I confirmed again.

"However I fucking love having sex with you." He growled out conflicted, "Because of you, I'm constantly hard. However, I'm going to give you two options and whichever you choose I will respect." He told me and I again nodded taking a sip of my coffee.

"Either we end whatever this is and remain friends." He gave me option one, "Or we can keep how we are, no strings attached, remain friendship and keep this strictly private between the two of us" he pointed between us and I considered his option.

I had the option of just being his friend, no sex and back to normal. I also had the other option of basically being friends with benefits and keeping it as a secret between ourselves. Neither option was what I wanted, I wanted Grey one hundred percent, not only for a dirty rump in the sheets.

I made my decision in the hopes that maybe one day, he will let me in and it could grow to something more. I would take however long it may take to have Grey as mines, I cared about him too deeply just to through it away and think I would be happy as only his friend.

I stood up and slowly walked around the island towards him, he watched me cautiously trying to figure out my intentions with his muscles tensed. He turned to face me and I scooted myself between his two legs, his hands instinctively going to my waist. I wrapped my arms around his neck and placed a small kiss on his cheek before resting my head in the crook of his neck.

"Option two." I breathed out against his skin and I could swear with a deep sigh his whole body relaxed holding me tighter to him.

"Emily you need to promise me that your sure about this." He mumbled into my hair causing shivers to run down my spine, "I know what I want and a relationship is definitely not the answer, this thing is purely no strings attached and I need you to understand that." He continued as I mulled on the thought.

Maybe my decision was stupid, however in my head it was an experiment. We did have amazing sex, no one could compare but for me there was something more and there always has been. This was an opportunity to steal my bad boy rockstars heart and I would rather settle for that than walk out the door and never speak to him again.

"I promise." I whispered back.

"Then I'm letting you know in advance that the family dinner that's on Sunday...I'm bring a date Ems." He said much clearer.

Well there goes my heart sinking into a deep put into my stomach, he was bring a date? He told me he doesn't do dates. I felt almost angry at the statement but the wave of jealously washing over me was much worse. I wanted to scream at the thought of him being near another girl. Why couldn't I be his date? I don't care for one second what our families think.
