I quickly locked it and I rushed Emma into my car.
E: Jesus Madds, what is going on?
She laughs.
M: GIRL, I HAVE TO TELL YOU THIS AT PRACTICE GRAYSON LITERALLY TOOK OF HIS HELMET AND WINKED AT ME. HIS HAIR WAS FRIZZY AND MATTED DOWN AT THE SAME TIME AND HE WAS STILL CUTE. Emma, I don't think I can keep away from him. Did I mention that HE'S AT MY HOUSE RIGHT NOW!
I smile big and faced her.
E: Well, what about his "player" side, look just stay away from him I don't want you to get hurt. Please! There are tons of cute guys at that school, I'm sure...
M: Your completely right.
E: Now, decorating shopping?
M: FOR SURE!
I pulled out and drove to the store.
We picked out really cute things. I decided to by fairy lights, fake plants, rugs, throw pillows, and others. I wanted a cozy and trendy room.
We got home and walked in the door.
M: Woah, looks nice, and we have a couch! I've never been so excited to have a couch before.
They laugh.
C: Well thanks to m- I mean Grayson it wouldn't look like this.
Grayson smiled.
E: Thanks then Grayson, I bet Carson was no help, he can't even pick up a bag of coins without squinting.
C: Yeah, whatever and I hope you know I was helping.
M: Anyways thanks Gray for helping us!
G: It was no problem really..
E: It is, because like I said Carson can't move this by himself.
C: That's it!
Carson chased Emma all around.
E: CARSON I'M SORRY IT WAS A JOKE!
C: YOU DIDN'T SAY THAT THEN!
Grayson and I laughed.
M: Sorry you had to see that, we joke like that alot.
G: Its cool.
M: Just a question, how many times have you really been in detention.
Grayson laughs.
G: I don't go a day without it.
M: Jesus, do you usually get insulted about your brother?
G: Pretty much, you see my brother is school president, he's on the football team, makes about all A's. So every teacher just expects me to click and be like him.
I nod.
M: How do your parents think?
G: They are usually on business trips.
I walked over and sat on the couch facing towards him.
M: We came alone.
G: What brings you here?
M: Well Carson and I always wanted to live in LA and my parents died when I was six, so my sister took care of us so she let us leave. Emma told her parents she was a lesbian and got kicked out. Her parents think gays don't belong in the world..
G: Wait she's really a lesbian?
M: Yeah, thought she made it clear..
I laughed.
G: I thought she was kidding again.
M: Nope, and one thing about her is that you'll never see her cry, EVER!
G: Is she some no feelings monster?
M: No, she doesn't like to show weakness she claims.
He laughs.
M: Again thanks for the help with the apartment, you should probably leave..
G: Once again, no problem, and Ethan needs me anyway so yeah.
We got up and I walked up him to the door.
G: Cya later cutie.
He winks.
I close the door smiling.
STOP IT STOP IT STOP IT!
I can do this, how hard can it be to ignore him.
I walked upstairs and got dressed for bed. I look on my bed and saw a note. It was a number signed by Grayson.
HE GAVE ME HIS NUMBER? I HAVE HIS NUMBER!
I quickly grabbed my phone and dialed it and stopped.
NO! DO. NOT. TEXT. HIM. UGH! I wanted to so bad. SO. FREAKING. BAD. Becky's words just hit replay on my head. I also didn't want to be played.
I paced back and forth in my room deciding to do with his number.
I decided to put in in my dresser.
I go to bed and drift off to sleep.
-Next Day-
I wake up and do my normal morning routine.
We decided that going to Starbucks everyday before school. It was going to be "our thing".
We got our Starbucks and went to school. I walked to my locker and grabbed my books.
In the morning we had a thing called "free time" which is basically just time to hangout before homeroom.
I walked to Emma.
E: Hey!
M: What's up, I really don't wa-
E: GRAYSON'S COMING!
M: Really act normal !
I slammed my back against her locker and played with my hair.
I pretended to have a conversation with Emma.
Grayson comes up.
G: What's up guys..
M: Nothing really.
E: Just talking, you?
G: Just wanted to say hi..
M: Well, now is your chance.
He smiled.
G: Hi.
E: Anyways, the bell is about to ring so see you two later.
M: Cya!
G: So, did you see the note?
M: Oh, the one with your number on it?
G: So you saw it?
M: I did, but Grayson Dolan you aren't going to win me over that easy.
He looked at me with a shocking and confused face.
I smirked at him and walked off.
I felt so powerful and confident in myself. I felt sassy, and I must admit, it felt good.
I went to homeroom and sat next to Ethan.
I got out my papers and did my work.
-Skip to lunch-
I run to Emma at our table.
M: EMMA GUESS WHAT EARLI-
I noticed she was with a girl.
E: Hey Madds!
M: Hey, whose uh this?
E: This is Stephanie.
Stephanie: Wassup, your Madison?
I awkwardly sit down at the table.
M: Guilty.
E: So you were saying..
M: Um, I'll uh tell you later..
E: Okay.
Emma and Stephanie started talking and I just stared at Grayson.
He was surrounded by girls. They laughed at every word he said. Even when he wasn't talking they were.
He looked at me and I quickly looked at Emma and pretended to laugh.
Emma looks at me confused. She looks at me the Grayson and laughs.
She rolled her eyes.
M: Hey, I'm going to go, chat later..
I picked up my plate and walked out until I ran into this girl.
