Why The Playboy?

secret from the others

1:30 pm- I walk back into the kitchen, confused of what Gray texted me.

"ur falling"
"yk u r...so am i"

We both kept it a secret either way.

I looked up from my phone so see Reagan and Lennon washing the dishes. "What- I said for everyone to wash their own dishes." I pop up beside them. "We played rock, paper, scissors." Reagan sighed as I laughed. I look behind me as the others were in the living room area, chilling.

"Can we go to your room yet?" Arya, Axel, Navy, Presley and Jael were plying with Tobio and Shoyo. Ben and Row were on their phones and so was Gray. "Uhm, let's wait for these two to finish the dishes." I pat their backs.

5 minutes later they finished the dishes. "Okay, let go." I led them up the glass rail, marble stairs and up to my room. I opened the double doors. "WOAH!" They all yelled. "I haven't been here in so long!" The girls yelled. Axel lays on my queen bed. "You got such a big bed for just one person. Everyone explore my room. "Woah, your bathroom is huge!" Rowan opens the door. "And the closet." Gray opened it and the girls zoomed in. "Where are they?!" They looked around. "Move out of the way!" I squeeze in the closet and push them all out.

"I'll choose for you guys." I smiled at them and they all got excited. "What are you choosing for them, exactly?" Benji and the rest of the guys sat on my window seat thingy. *I don't know what it's called but yeah* The girls were all around my vanity.

I hummed to myself. Knock knock. I turn around to see Gray standing by the doorway of my closet. "Mind if I come in?" He steps forward anyways. I stay silent. "What are you doing?" He sees my full drawer of bathing suits neatly piled.

"O-oh...we're going swimming?" I nodded. "Yeah the girls forgot to bring their own bathing suits." I picked out all the bathing suits for them and turned around to face Gray. "Oh! I'll get you guys some of Ryders extra swimming trunks that I got for him." I walk past Grya but he caught my hand and pulled me to him.

"I might go har-" I cover is mouth and blushed. "No. Don't even go there." He sees my red face and I see his. We stood close to each other. "I'm gonna go give these to the girls then I'll come back with the trunks, okay?" I walked out and he walked out after.

"Okay, come here!" I place the swimsuits down onto the bed pairing the tops with the bottoms.

The girls zoom to me. "Okay, Reagan! You get the navy blue bottoms with a white, back crossed, top." I handed the two to her. "Navy, you get the black bottom and top with gold tie-dye marks." "Lennon, Presley and Jael," I grab the swimsuits to hand to them. "You three get the matching one piece suits but different colours, blue, pink, and pink purple." Non of the colours were very vibrant but they were still nice. "Arya you get the peachy colour top and bottoms with a cross back as well and some rose gold lines on it." "Zay, you get the black one piece with an open back."
They all squealed then hugged me.

"Yes! Thank you!" They all ran into the he bathroom to change. I turn around and looked at the boys. "Sigh, come with me. "I led them out the door and went into Ryder's room. "His room is as big as yours." Gray said. "So, are the trunks cute?" Axel walks into the closet. "Haha! I got the right ones for you." I pulled out a swimming trunk that was shorter than the usually trunk and it had rubber ducks all over it. Axel gasped. "YES! LOVE YOU HARLOW!" He runs into Ryder's bathroom. I chose the other boys' trunks.

"Benji, you get the dark green, with this marble lime effect, Rowan you get this hot pink with flamingos one, and Gray," The two other boys walked away and went into the bathroom down the hall. They thanked me. "Gray...you get the plain slate coloured trunks." I handed it to him.

"Plain?" He looked at me as we walked out of the closet. "Yeah, but it's Gucci so-" "GUCCI?!" He runs down to the first floor bathroom to change. I laughed.

Axel walked out of the bathroom. "This is so me!" He had his folded clothes in his hands. "Come on! Let's go back to my room."

After everyone was done changing we went back to my room. I haven't picked out my swimsuit yet.

"Harlow!" I turn around to see Arya and Zaynab looking at me with towels around their waist. "Yes?" "These are too cheeky!" They yelled, whispering. "Yes, I know. I thought you liked that style?" "We do but the boys!" I rolled me eyes. "You guys," I turn to the boys who were chatting to themselves. "Don't be pervs." The boys turn red as they knew what was happening.

"Problem solved!" I smiled at them. They hit me. "Okay, okay I'll wear a cheeky one." They clapped and came to my closet with me. "Here, this one!" The two chose out a slate matching bathing suit. It had a cross tie at the front on the top and the bottoms had a knot on the sides by the waist. "It's high waisted like ours." They smiled and walked out of the closet for me to change.

"Hurry up, Harlow! It's so hot!" Navy yelled.

I quickly changed and put my hair into a low messy bun again.

I walked out of the closet. "Final-WOAH!" Lennon turned around from the group and soon everyone was look at me. "Can y'all not? I already deal with this everyday." I made eye contact with Gray who was blushing from the distance in the room. Axel soon noticed something. "Hey, you and Gray are matching!" I looked at my swimsuit through my full body mirror and soon at Gray.

"Zay and Ary chose this for me." I pointed to the two. "Welp, it's been chosen now let's go!" They all walk out of the room without me...and Gray. He stood there just staring at me. "You ready?" I asked him as I grabbed a towel. He kept staring in silence. "Okay, Gray....I get it." I walked up him and looked up.

Without thinking I got up on my toes, put my hand by his face and kissed his cheek. I pulled down and looked at him. "Finally, I got your attention." "You've had my attention this whole time." He said back smiling. "But what was that for?" He touches his face. I blush.

"Uh-" But before I could say anything he grabbed my hand and led me out the door. "Let's go swim now." I stumble down the stairs and we made it out to the backyard. "Thanks for that." We placed out stuff down on some chairs buy the pool. "You should do that more often." His playboy tone came up. I rolled my eyes and smiled.

I watched as the others had fun in the water.

"HURRY UP AND JUMP IN!" Zay called out for me. "Okay, I'm coming!" I pulled my hair out of the low bun. "That was hot." Gray came up beside me and took his shirt off.

Damn. He's got abs.
