When Ethan and I finally decide to get out of the creek we go back to his house. I took a shower first and then put on some of his clothes. Once I exited the bathroom Ethan went in. I started to head back to Ethan's room. I was about to walk in when I heard muffled sobs. I walked across the hallway and lightly pushed Grayson's door open. I had never seen Grayson cray and quite honestly it was heartbreaking. I walked over to his bed and laid down next to him. He turned over so that he was facing me. We didn't say anything I just wrapped my arms around him and he cried into my shoulder. Eventually he stopped crying. "What's wrong?" I asked. "It just hurts so much knowing the person you love will never love you back." He said. I gave him a small smile. "I know how that feels." I whisper. "You do?" He asked. I nodded. "That's how I felt about Ethan." I say. "But he does love you." Grayson says. "Yeah well I didn't know that." I say. "I love you." Gray says. "I love you too." I say back. "You really are a great friend." He says. I smile. "So are you." I ended up not going to Ethan's room that night. Grayson and I stayed up and talked then I eventually fell asleep. This isn't the first time this has happened. Often times Gray and I would spend all night talking then fall asleep together then in the mornings I would wake up with his arms around my waist.

I wake up to someone lightly touching my face. I open my eyes and come face to face with Grayson. His eyes were focused on my cheek as he lightly dragged his thumb across it. He didn't know I was awake but I didn't say any thing because it felt nice. Eventually he realized that I was awake. "Your cheek is bruised." He said. He took his hand away. "No don't stop it feels nice and I'm fine it doesn't even hurt." I lie. There's a slight sting but nothing too bad. Grayson continued to rub my cheek and we just sat in silent, staring at each other as he rubbed my cheek. I love how we are such close friends that none of what we're doing is awkward. "Gray. Who is she?" I asked. He sighed. "Her names Bella. (You were wrong Vanessa! Hehe! 😈) Ethan got really mad at me when I told him because she's his ex girlfriend that cheated on him. He hates her." He explained. "How did you fall in love with her?" I asked. "Well we started to hang out a lot and she said she felt awful about cheating on Ethan. The more I hung out with her and the more I got to know her, the more I fell in love but she's dating this dude Isaac." He said. I hugged him. "Everything will work out. Don't worry." I told him. He smiled. "Thanks." He leaned in and kissed my cheek. "I'm going to go see Eth." I said as I got up. "Ok see you later." Gray waved as I left his room and went across the hall into Ethan's room.

Ethan was still asleep. I don't know why but it kind of bothers me that he was so mad about his brother liking his ex. It makes my wonder if he still has feelings for her. I lay down next to him with my back facing him. No sooner than I laid down did Ethan wrap his arms around me. "Morning baby." He said in his incredibly cute morning voice. I turned to face him. "Do you still have feelings for Bella?" I asked. "Who told you about her?" He asked. If you ask me he sounded a little hostile. "Grayson, now answer my question. Do you still have feelings for her?" I asked again. "No." He said firmly. "Then why did you flip out when Gray told you that he loved her? Because if you ask me that sounds a little suspicious." I said. "Madison I flipped out because she's a cold hearted bitch and he wouldn't listen to me. And how many times do I have to tell you that I love you and only you. God stop being such an insecure teen girl. You're seriously getting annoying." Ethan said. He sounded frustrated. "Well I'm sorry but I can't just flip a switch and turn my insecurity off. It's always going to be there like an itch that I can't scratch. Trust me it frustrates me ten times more than it frustrates you because I'm not just insecure about you liking other girls. I'm insecure about my weight, my clothes, my everything and I hate it. I hate it so much." I said. I wasn't yelling but it my voice was raised more that normal. Ethan and I were both now sitting up. I put my head in my hands. "God I hate it." I whispered.

Ethan moved my hands away from my face. "I'm sorry but baby please trust me you're beautiful, sexy, amazing, the perfect size, your clothes are always on fleek, and you're all around perfect." In between each compliment he gave me a small kiss. "I love you." I say. I couldn't help but smile. "I love you too." He said. This time the kiss wasn't short it was long and amazing. I stood up and stretched. "Nooooooo. I'm still tired. Come be my little spoon." He said. He turned on his side and patted the empty space next to him on the bed. I laughed and shook my head but laid down next to him. Ethan kissed the back of my neck. I let out a small giggle and crinkled the back of my neck. "Oh that tickled did it?" Ethan asked. "Noooooo." I lied. "Did you just lie?" He asked. I shook my head. The next thing I know I'm being attacked with neck kisses. I couldn't stop laughing. I managed to turn over and attack his sides and a tickle war broke out. I was at the point of peeing my pants. I threw my hands in the air. "I surrender! I surrender!" I yelled out. Ethan stopped but his laughing didn't and I joined in on his laughing. We both fell back on to the bed and gasped for air. "Ok can we actually sleep now?" I asked. "Sounds good to me." Ethan said. We cuddled up into each other and soon fell asleep.
