FAKE

i started cleaning as soon as i got home that day. the house wasn't a mess, but it definitely needed to be cleaned. i heard the front door open and i knew it was grayson. he walked into the kitchen and sat down, just staring at me.

"is there something you need?" i asked, furrowing my eyebrows.

"guess who i saw on the way home." grayson said.

"who?" i asked.

"zach clayton."

zachs been my crush ever since 6th grade when he called me pretty.

"but i guess you're over him now." grayson said.

"what?" i asked.

"because you're dating joey." he said with a smirk.

"where'd you hear that from?" i asked. should i tell gray about our deal? or even mom?

"sam." gray said.

"i thought i told you not to talk to her." i said, glaring at him. he shrugged.

"she came to me, and that's not what we're talking about."

"i thought slut wasn't your type." i said raising an eyebrow at him.

"stop changing the conversation!" grayson said.

"yes, fine. i'm dating joey." grayson raised his eyebrow and smirked at me.

"i knew you liked him." he said. i chuckled watching him be all proud of himself.

"i should've known you guys were dating, he picked you up this morning. oh my gosh does mom know that you two are dating?" he asked.

"no, and keep it that way." i said.

"don't you think she should know?" he asked. he does have a point, i mean she is my mom.

"i guess, fine i'll tell her." i said.

"good, because if you don't, i will." he said.

"whatever, start cleaning loser." i said beginning to organize things.

"why do we even need to clean? the house isn't even dirty." grayson groaned.

"yours and my definition of clean are very different." i chuckled.

"well that's because you're a neat freak." grayson said.

"have you seen my room? im really not." i said and grayson just shrugged.

"just clean gray." i told him, then headed towards the kitchen, opening the fridge and taking out the chicken to let it thaw a little.

i heard my phone go off and i looked down at it. it was a text from audrey in a groupchat with all the girls.

audrey - avery, go on twitter right now...

why? i opened the twitter app anyways and saw that i had a lot of notifications. i scrolled through them and people were tweeting my username along with tori's tweets.

@ toriwade: i knew he was low, but i didn't think he was that low to date someone like her..

did she really just tweet that? i clenched my jaw. i pressed the button on the top right corner.

@ averyhart: why don't you use the '@' next time?

i pressed tweet and audrey and my other friends favorited it. i set my phone back down and continued cleaning. about 10 minutes later, i was finally finished. i walked into the living room and saw grayson come down the stairs.
