Chapter 29

*SHORT CHAPTER*

•Riv's POV•

I blush and look down. He was talking about Gray.

I look back up at him and he's smirking.

"Do you like this guy?" he asks playfully.

I giggle a bit and try to change the subject.

"Well dad, would you care to explain where all the furniture is?" I ask.

His smile fades into a frown.

"I will later. I just, wanna hear about this guy. Does he treat you well?" he asks me, replacing his frown with a smile again.

My cheeks reden even deeper.

"Dad, we aren't dating." I say laughing.

"Are you sure? He seems protective. Something a boyfriend would do." he says, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes dad I'm sure."

"Well, do you like him?"

I look down. I didn't even have to think about it.

"Yes." I whisper.

"Umm sorry, couldn't hear that." my dad says, his smile spreading.

"Yes." I say louder.

My dad laughs.

"What's his name?" he asks.

"Grayson." I say smiling and looking back up at him.

"Well he's a good kid. I'm proud you like him. He seems, better than that Tanner guy."

My stomach drops at the sound of Tanner's name.

"Tanner was an ass hole." I say, leaving the counter. My dad follows me to sit down at our kitchen table.

The last table we have in the house.

"I know he was. But if you think about it, the first time I saw Grayson, I was pretty drunk but he did look a lot like Tanner." he says.

I think about it for a moment, and it clicks.

"Holy shit." I whisper.

Tanner has the same eyebrows, eyes, smile, lips just everything as Grayson.

Holy hell.

I have to find Grayson.
