Amy knocked on his door and she looked at me 

"Okay do I look okay?" She asked me for the 50th time tonight 

"You look stunning" I reassured her 

She smiled and the front door opened 

"Hey!" Ethan grinned "Guys the girls are here!" He yelled before stepping aside for us to walk in 

He kissed and hugged Amy while I took off my jacket 

The boys came out of the living room with a few of the other girls 

I hugged a few of them 

"You are fucking beautiful!" Mia smiled as she walked over to me with her arms wide open

"Look at you!" I smiled back embracing her hug

We followed everyone into the living room and I sat down next to Mia, James - her boyfriend, Sophie and Daniel - her boyfriend. 

I was fine with being the only single girl out of the group but it did suck ass as I was always third wheeling or felt left out. Grayson was also single which made me feel a little better as I wasn't the only one but we weren't really THAT close. We had the same friends and spoke to each other when we saw one another but we didn't really have long conversations and we never hung out together, by ourselves. The party was going great, we were all laughing and talking and I was having a good time. After awhile the alcohol started to kick in for everyone and we now started to do stupid things, the boys were now taking all there clothes off and were jumping in the pool while me and the girls started screaming at them cause we were cold and hungry. I knew that I would start to feel left out soon as when my friends are drunk they usually make out and get to the point where there almost having sex. That feeling started to creep through my skin as Mia was next to me sitting on James kissing him. She started to push him onto me slightly and I grew uncomfortable, I glanced at everyone in the room and they were all making out with each other, well apart from me and Grayson. I sighed and stood up, I left the living room and walked into the kitchen. I sat at the island and just went on my phone, I turned my body side to side as I sat on the swivel chair in jakes kitchen. I scrolled through Instagram while drinking a beer. I didn't even notice Grayson walking into the kitchen 

"Yo" He spoke grabbing a beer from the fridge 

"Hey" I responded with no enthusiasm 

"Not having much fun huh?" He sat down in front of me and took a swig of his beer 

I shut my phone off and looked at him, I shrugged my shoulders while shaking my head 

"Me neither" he replied 

"You third wheeling too?" I asked 

"Uhuh" he drank some of his alcohol "I always do"

"Same" I sighed "they always promise me that they won't leave me out and that they'll include me but that never happens" I stared at him bluntly 

"Ethan says the same to me" he rolled his eyes "fucking bullshit" he huffed 

"I didn't even want to come tonight" I laughed 

"I didn't either, Ethan forced me too"

"Amy made me come" 

"There's no point in us coming though" Grayson said "we always end up third wheeling and it fucking sucks"

"Doesn't it?" 

I stared at him for a couple seconds before looking down and sighing 

"We just need to be in a relationship to feel included" I looked up again "they put so much pressure on me to find a boyfriend it's unreal"

"Same, the boys always try and hook me up with girls"

"I think if I went out with some random guy I found on the street, they'd support it just so I wouldn't feel "left out" at these parties" I laughed 

He laughed back 

"If I came home with a complete whore Ethan would praise me like a God, saying that "I've found the one" or some shit like that"

I sighed "I'm sorry"

"I'm sorry too"

As our eyes met, I realised I'd never spoken to Grayson that deeply before. 

"We've never talked to each other like this before" I chuckled 

He followed the same laughter as me 

Our giggles died down and I suddenly found myself gleaming into his brown coloured eyes. I never had the chance to admire Grayson's face before but when I saw his tan tinted skin and his long fluffy eye lashes, I felt a queasy feeling tingle inside my stomach. I stared at him, as he stared at me. I admired him, with a smile stinging my lips. He really was beautiful. 

"You stare a lot" he said slightly laughing, which caused me to knock myself out of the trans I was in 

"I do not" I blushed 

He laughed even more "it's okay I don't blame you for staring at a stunning and devouring man like myself"

"Modesty gets you nowhere Grayson" I sipped my beer 

"Except inside you"

I choked on the liquid in my mouth and began coughing profusely 

"You're disgusting" I spoke my eyes watering from the near death that I had just experienced 

He smirked at me, while watching me recover from almost dying 

I threw my red cup in the trash and walked back to the island, I wiped my mouth and grabbed my phone 

"I'm gonna head home now" 

"Oh what?" He pouted "it's only 12" he gave me the puppy eyes 

"Yea and I've got stuff to do tomorrow" I giggled 

"Nooo please stay"

"Alright but only for half an hour" I warned 

"That's plenty of time" he smirked 

I scrunched my face together "You're so gross" I sat back down on my chair 

"I didn't do anything!" He defended 

"We are not having sex" I hissed 

"I didn't want to!" He yelled 

"Sure" I squinted my eyes at him 

He huffed 

I laughed 

"You wanna get outta here?" He asked 

"You just said you didn't want me to go"

"Yea I know, I'm just wondering if you wanna go somewhere else, with me" 

"Eh might as well this place is a buzz kill"

He smiled and stood up 

"Let's go m'lady" he held out his hand for me to grab 

"Thank you kind sir" I grabbed his hand 

I linked my arm with his and we left the kitchen. I put my jacket on and Grayson opened the front door, I stepped outside and was hit with the immediate cold and windy breeze. I pulled my jacket together and looked back at Grayson, he smiled and walked towards me. He held my hand and we walked down the driveway. I walked pretty slowly as I didn't want to trip over, considering I was wearing heels. I sat down in the passenger seat as Grayson walked round and sat in the drivers side. He started the car and began driving 

"McDonald's?"

"Hell yeah"

I always third wheel 🤷‍♀️

PEACE✌🏻
