L.A. For You

Chapter 18: Annoyed

Anna's POV: It's July 22nd, I woke up to Gray waking me up at 8am. It is way too early. After Gray woke me up for no reason, I got ready for the day. I put on leggings, short sleeve shirt, and my Taylor Swift reputation tour hoodie. Today is not my day. After I got ready, I went downstairs. Gray was the only one downstairs.

"Gray, why'd you wake me up", I asked really tired and annoyed. 

"We need to talk", Gray said seriously. 

"About what", I said sitting at the kitchen table. 

"You know Bryce and Ethan want us together. Do you think it's going to work", he said sitting across from me at the table. 

"I don't think so. Bryce is probably more into it than Ethan, because you know Bryce is a party animal. Ethan's in it, because he knows you like me and they teamed up. I do like you a lot as I have said before", I said. 

"Wow you're right. But I understand what you're saying", he said. 

"Yeah, we're so busy with everything that we just need to be friends for now", I said. 

"I agree", he said. I'm so glad he agrees with me and understands where I'm coming from.

*time skip, 12pm*

We are all hanging out in the living room and about to watch T.V., then the TV remote stops working. I don't have batteries. Today is the annoy me day. 

"Come on now, what do you guys want to do", I said fighting the air. Bryce laughing at me. I may not be a party animal, but I do have the same energy as him. 

"I need to talk to you", Gray said. 

"Ok, we can leave", I said. 

"Bye guys", Ethan and Bryce said. 

*time skip, 2pm*

It took us an hour to get to the hillside we went to before. Neither of us talked on the way over here. Why did he need to talk to me? I thought we got everything cleared up this morning. We got out of the car and sat down on the hillside. 

"I wanted to talk, because I understand what you're saying earlier. I know there's more you want to say", he said. He's right. 

"Okay, everything about you is perfect. However, I'm not. I'm not sure why you want me or that Bryce and Ethan want us together. It's all confusing. It's like Bryce told me, right person wrong timing", I said getting sad. He put his arm around me. 

"I like you, because you're sweet, friendly, and kind. You put others first before you. You always make sure people are ok first. We should be friends until we both know it's right, and if not stay friends", he said. 

"Yeah I agree", I said. 

"You know Bryce caught us sleeping in the bed yesterday", I said. 

"Yeah, I talked to him earlier. He was so excited about it. He really does love us together", he said smiling and laughing. 

"I know. Now, you know why he wants us together", I said. He nodded his head. 

*time skip, 6pm*

We just arrived at the house now. We spent so long talking at the hillside. It felt good to talk to Gray about everything going on. We decided to have food delivered at the house for dinner. It took 30 minutes for the food to come and we sat at the table and talked. 

"What did you guys talk about", Ethan being nosy. I laugh. 

"We knew that you guys want us to be together, but we made the decision that we're friends for now", he said. 

"Ah dang, but I love you guys together. The only people I actually ship together", Bryce said. 

"Not until we are ready Bryce Hall", I said. 

"Dang the first and last name", Ethan said sassy. 

"Whatever", Bryce said jokingly. 

We finished eating and then decided to get on our phones. We were gonna watch a movie, but no my remote quit working. I forgot to get batteries. 

*time skip, 9pm*

After 3 hours of straight social media, I started getting really sleepy. I told everyone goodnight and went upstairs to my room. I got into something comfortable and plugged my phone in. I fell asleep really fast.
