Type: One shot | Imagine about Grayson Rating: Rated PG Word Count: 3600+ Pairing: Grayson + Skylar Enjoy!

"Who are we to each other?" he questioned. "You tell me," she asked as her voice cracked. "Clearly nothing" he crossed his arms. "Nothing" She swallowed hard. "Yea nothing," he said as he leaned against the counter. "Nothing," she nodded as she turned away from him. Trying not to cry but the tears were burning her eyes.

She went upstairs to finish getting dressed. Grabbing her things and putting them in her bag. He came upstairs and leaned against the door frame, just watching her. He chuckled slightly as she was packing her bags.

"We do this at least once a week," he said. "I'm done" she looked at him. "Another thing you say" he rolled his eyes. "I mean it this time" she pushed past him and went downstairs. "Alright see you later," he said. "I'm nothing to you, right? Then that means not seeing each other" she slipped her shoes on. "Yeah sure," he made his way downstairs. "What is your problem?" she questioned. "I don't have one," he said. "Alright stop" he grabbed her arm before she could get out the door. "Get off of me," she said. "Stop" he pulled her back to him. "You know you are my everything," he said. "Let me go," she said. "Come on don't do this," he said. "No, you gaslight me all the time then say what you THINK I want to hear so I'll stay but not this time," she said. "Fine go," he said as he let her go. "I will!" She grabbed her bag and left the house.

She got into her car and pulled out of the driveway. Once she was down the street she pulled over and started crying. The last two years were just a waste of time. She took a deep breath in and got her mind straight before driving. She made it to her best friend's house and he was already outside waiting for her.

"Come here," he said as she got out of the car. "Grayson," she said as she walked to him. "It's ok" he hugged her. "Finally done with that asshole," he said. "Yea I am," she said as she wrapped her arms around his waist. "Come on in," he said as he kept his arm around her shoulders, leading her inside.

They went inside and Grayson went back to the car to get her things. She sat on the couch trying not to get upset. Grayson placed her things in his room and grabbed a box of tissues. He sat next to her and allowed her to just cry it out, allowing her to feel whatever she needed to feel.

"Skylar just breath," Grayson said as he rubbed her back. "I'm just nothing to him," Skylar said. "You are too good for him," Grayson said. "I hate him" she started to cry. "Come on, he's not worth your tears" he hugged her to his chest.

She cried against his chest until she felt that she didn't have anything left to cry about. She sat up and Grayson wiped her tears away from her cheeks. She looked at him and she knew she would be ok. Grayson and Skylar have always been friends since forever. She always had him and he always had her.

"Thanks for allowing me to cry it out," she said. "I'm always here for you," he said. "I know," she smiled slightly. "We are having a little get-together later tonight, If you aren't up for it I'll cancel it," he said. "I think I need people around me. It will be good" she said. "Alright," he smiled slightly as he looked at her. "I'm going to lay down for a little bit, but let me know when they are coming," she said as she got up. "I will," he nodded.

She grabbed her bag and went into his room. She laid down and ended up falling asleep. Later on, Grayson entered the room and gently woke her up. Sitting on the bed next to her as she opened her eyes.

"They are about 20 minutes out," he said. "How long was I asleep for?" she questioned. "About two hours," he said. "Oh," she nodded and sat up in bed. "Are you ok?" he questioned. "Yea I'm fine. I'm going to get into the shower, keep them out of here?" She looked at her. "It's just Ethan and his girlfriend, a few other friends," he said. "Still I don't want them seeing me naked," she said. "True," he smiled. "I'll make sure you won't be bothered," he said. "Thank you" she kissed his cheek before getting up, going to the bathroom.

She started the shower when Ethan walked into the house. Grayson went out of the bedroom to make sure they wouldn't bother Skylar.

"Uh-huh Grayson got laid last night" Ethan jokes. "No, I didn't" Grayson rolled his eyes. "Then who is in the shower?" Ethan asked. "Skylar," Grayson said. "Oh finally," Ethan said. "No, not finally, she just broke up with her boyfriend," Grayson said. "So take your chance, you know you are in love with her" Ethan said. "It's not the right time," Grayson said. "So when are you going to tell her?" Ethan asked. "I don't know," Grayson said as he sat down on the couch.

Skylar got out of the shower and started to get dressed when she could hear Ethan and Grayson talking.

"Tell her that you are in love with her," Ethan said. "And what if she doesn't feel the same way?" Grayson said. "I'll be crushed and the friendship would never be the same," he said "You'll never know until you tell her," Ethan said as he sat down next to Grayson. "Maybe one day," Grayson said. "Hey Ethan," Skylar said as she entered the room. "Hey Skylar," Ethan said. "So what are we talking about?" She asked. "Just random stuff," Ethan said as he shot Grayson a look. "Cool," She said as she sat down in the chair. "Yea, just messing around," Grayson said. "I'm going to a party tonight, you guys in?" Ethan asked. "I am," Skylar said. "Sure" Grayson nodded.

They all left Grayson's apartment and headed downtown to where the party was. Once they arrived Grayson offered to take Skylar's jacket and helped her take it off. He placed it into the room where the coats were. Skylar went and grabbed two drinks for Grayson and herself. Handing him the drink once he caught up with her.

"Here you go," she smiled. "Thank you," he smiled. "So what were you and Ethan truly talking about?" she questioned. "Just stuff," Grayson said. "Ok," she nodded. "Anything I need to know about?" she looked at him. "Not really," he said. "Ok" she took a sip from her drink.

The night went on and the drinks started flowing, music was going and Skylar was enjoying herself. She kept an eye on Grayson though, because she knew what they were talking about. She didn't realize that she had feelings for Grayson until she overheard them talking.

"Ok so we are going to play a game," Ethan said. "Well, it never has I" Ethan chuckled. "Should be interesting," Sklyar said. "Yea should be," Grayson said. "Never have I ever hid my feelings for someone," Ethan said. "Ethan!" Grayson said. He placed his drink down and left the apartment. Skylar rushed behind him, making sure he was ok. "Grayson, stop," She said as she tried to catch up with him. "Go enjoy yourself," Grayson said. "No, stop," she said as she finally caught up with him, grabbing his arm. "What Skylar?" he asked as he turned to face him. "I heard you two talking today so I know what that was about. Now talk to me" she said. "I'm in love with you," he admitted. "I heard that part," she said. "And I don't want to lose this between us so I didn't say anything," he said. "I have feelings for you," she said. "But it's complicated, because of what happened today but that doesn't mean I don't want to be with you" she looked at him. "So now what?" he asked. "We take it slow" she grabbed his hand. "Wait so you want this between us?" he questioned. "Yea I do" she admitted. "Just no rush," she said. "Ok," he nodded and laced their fingers together. "No rush," he said. "No rush" she looked at him. "WE DID IT!" Ethan said as he was out in the hallway. "Oh hush it," Grayson said. "Don't mind him," he smiled. "I never do," Skylar laughed.

Grayson placed his arm around Skylar's shoulders as they walked back to the party. They stayed for a few more hours before leaving and heading back to Grayson's apartment.

"I'll sleep on the couch," he said. "No you won't," she said as she pulled him to the bedroom with her. "Oh," he said. "Sleep in the same bed with me," she said. "Ok," he nodded.

She grabbed one of his oversized shirts and went into the bathroom to change. She came back with his tee-shirt on and her panties, and she got into bed. He was already in bed with just his boxers on, she snuggled to his chest. Pulling the blanket around them as he wrapped his arm around her. Kissing the top of her head as she started to drift off to sleep. He also fell asleep holding her close to him. In the morning she shuffled in the bed to realize that she was alone. She groaned as she opened her eyes and her head was pounding. She sighed and sat up in bed, stretching before getting herself out of bed. She slipped on her slippers and made her way to the bathroom. Brushing her teeth and her hair before making her way into the living room. Grayson wasn't to be found in the apartment. She grabbed a glass and got herself some water before sitting on the couch. She grabbed her phone that she left on the coffee table and checked her messages.

"Oh you are awake," Grayson said as he walked through the door. "Yea, where have you been?" she questioned. "Down to the coffee shop to get coffee and donuts," he said as he sat next to her. "best hangover medicine around," he said. "Yea I need it," she said. "I have aspirin if you need it," he said. "No, the coffee and donuts are enough," she said as she took the cup from his hand. "Good" he kissed her forehead before pulling out the donuts. "Do you remember last night?" he questioned. "Last night?" she asked. "Yea last night" he looked at her. "Were you that drunk?" he questioned. "Of course I remember last night" she smiled as she looked at him. "Oh," he took a deep breath in. "I thought I was going to have to tell you again," he said. "You can" she leaned her head against his shoulder. "I love you," he said. "I love you," she said as she played with his hand.

They sat on the couch and ate their donuts. They decided to take it easy that day, just stay on the couch and watch whatever tv show they wanted. She finally got up after a few hours and stretched. Going to the kitchen to make something to eat. Grayson got up off the couch and walked into the kitchen where she was. Wrapping his arms around her waist and resting his head against her shoulder. Softly kissed her cheek as she placed her hands over his.

"Let's go out to eat," he whispered. "Sounds good," she said. "Or order in?" she asked. "I want to take you out," he said. "Ok" she nodded as she leaned back against him. "Where do you want to go?" he asked. "You know me, I like anything," she smiled. "I know that but I want you to choose," he said. "Let's go down to the restaurant down by the beach," she said. "That's a good idea," he said as he kissed her cheek again. "Yea I love their food" she admitted. "I know you do," he smiled. "So it's a date," she said. "A date," he nodded. "Do you have anything to wear?" he asked. "Yes  I did grab my clothes, well mainly all my clothes," she said. "Ok," he smiled as he held her close to him.

She pulled away from his grip and went into the bedroom. She changed into something a little bit nicer as he also got ready. He grabbed her hand as she entered the living room. Kissing her cheek softly before grabbing his jacket. She also grabbed her jacket and phone before heading out the door. They left the apartment and got into the car, making their way down towards the beach.

"Stay there," Grayson said as he got out of the car. He smiled as he made his way over to the passenger side and opened the door for her. "After you," he said as he held his hand out for her. "Thank you" she smiled and grabbed his hand, getting out of the car.

He laced their fingers together as they walked up to the restaurant. They got a table and he sat next to her, placing his arm around her shoulders. They looked over the menu but they both knew what they wanted. They ordered their food and started talking.

"Can I ask you a question?" she asked as she turned to him. "Sure," he said as he looked at her. "How long?" she asked. "What?" He responded. "How long have you been in love with me?" she questioned. "It's hard to know when I started to truly catch feelings for you," he said. "Oh," she nodded. "Are you sure that's the answer?" she looked at him, "I've always had feelings for you but they just deepened every day I'm around you" he smiled. "Aw, that's sweet," she said. "It's true," he said as he tucked her hair behind her ear. Placing his hand against her chin.

She leaned in toward him, placing her lips against his. He smiled against her lips and kissed her softly. Brushing his thumb against her cheek as he kept the kiss. She rested her hand on his leg as she moved closer to him. Skylar pulled away when the food arrived at the table.

"Opps" he smiled. "No oops" she kissed his cheek.

They started eating their food and once they finished he paid for dinner. Walking back to the table reaching for her hand as she got up, She grabbed his hand and laced their fingers together as they walked out of the restaurant. She pulled him towards the beach. He followed her down to the shore, watching the waves crash into the shore. He moved behind her wrapping his arms around her waist. Leaning his head against her shoulder as they watched the sun finish setting, the darkness falling around them. The moon shining on the water, she leaned back against him.

"Perfect" she whispered. "You are," he whispered in her ear. FInally spending these moments with the right person" she placed her hand over his. "These moments are priceless," he said before kissing her cheek. "Yea they are" she turned to face him.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and looked up at him. He placed his hands on her hips and looked at her. Leaning down, kissing her softly, gently tugging at her bottom lip. She smiled against his lips before softly pulling away, resting her forehead against his. He pulled her closer to him, wrapping his arms around her as she rested her head against his chest.

"I knew you were trouble when I met you," Jackson said. "Jackson?" Skylar said as she pulled away from Grayson. "Slut 101 right," Jackson smirked. "I thought three years meant something to you," Jackson said. "You are an asshole, Leave," Grayson said. "Three years meant so much to me but not to you," Skylar said. "Because you jump in bed with any guy you see," Jackson said. "Fuck off," Grayson said. "Oh, the pretty boy has something to say," Jackson said as he stepped closer. "Pretty boy will knock you on your ass," Grayson said. "OK stop," Skylar said as she got between the two. "Pretty boy is just a rebound and he needs to know his place," Jackson said. "You wish," Grayson said. "Yet did it not take her but what a day or two before getting with you after we break up?" Jackson said. "What does that say?" he crossed his arms. "Grayson isn't a rebound, '' Skylar said. "If you say so sweetheart" Jackson rolled his eyes and walked away. "Don't listen to him," Skylar said as she grabbed Grayson's hand. "Don't" Grayson said as he pulled away from her and walked back to the car.

She followed Grayson back to the car and got inside. The ride home was awkward and silent, Grayson pulled into the driveway. He got out of the car and went straight into the apartment. She sighed and got out of the car as well, making it inside the apartment. She sat on the couch as he was sitting in the chair. She didn't know what to say but she wanted him to know that he wasn't a rebound. She also knew right now he wouldn't believe a word she said. She laid back on the couch and stared at the ceiling, allowing the tears to fall from her eyes. He went into the bedroom and locked the door behind him as she cried on the couch. She finally fell asleep on the couch, later on, that night he came out of the room. He placed a blanket around her and turned off the lights before going back to the bedroom. In the morning she woke up when the sun started to peek through the windows. She sat up and rubbed her eyes, stretching and looking around to see if she saw Grayson.

"Grayson?" she said as she stood up. He wasn't in the apartment but she didn't find a note from him. 'We can talk later but just not right now, you can still stay I just need space xo Grayson'

She sighed and went into the bedroom to get her clothes. She got ready for the day and decided to go looking for apartments. She didn't want to bother Grayson or make him feel like he couldn't come back to his apartment. She found one closer to her job and it was perfect. She signed the lease and put her bags inside the apartment. She locked up and went to work, trying to get Grayson off her mind but she felt awful about what happened. After work, she returned to Grayson's apartment and left him a note as well as his key.

'I love you and will always love you. I know you feel like you are a rebound but the truth be told I've been in love with you before Jackson came along. He was a distraction because I didn't want to lose you. Seems like I have lost you now and that hurts and I will never forgive myself. I've moved out and left space for you. You have my number if you want to talk. Please just know I love you and would love to be with you. Xo Skylar'

She left the apartment and went to her apartment. She ordered take-out and just ate on the floor. She looked out her window just staring at the moon. Remember how the moment was so perfect before Jackson ruined it. She grabbed her blanket and laid on the floor, staring at the ceiling before falling asleep. All Skylar could do was give Grayson space and hope that he could see that he wasn't a rebound. She went to work each day and came back home, living her mundane life. There was a storm coming in that weekend and she just wanted to get home before it started. Skylar's friend needed her to work her shift so Skylar was stuck at work for a few more hours. Once she got off of work it was raining, she left her job. Stopping to get her something to eat before going back to her apartment. She sat at the table she just bought and watched the rainfall from the window. It was getting pretty bad outside. The thunder was loud and the lighting would light up her whole apartment. The lights flicked a few times before turning off.

"Ugh, it's going to be a long night" she sighed.

She got up from the table and cleaned up her mess. She heard someone knocking on the door. She walked to the door and opened it up. Grayson was standing there soaking wet.

"I love you," he said as he looked at her. "Grayson," She said. "Come inside, you are soaking wet," she said. "I don't care," he said as he pulled her to him and kissed her softly. Placing his hands against her cheeks keeping the kiss.

She smiled against his lips and kissed him back, wrapping her arms around his neck. She pulled him inside of the apartment and closed the door behind them. She pulled away from him and went into the bathroom to turn on the shower. He followed her into the bathroom. She started to take his wet clothes off of him.

"You are going to get sick," she said. "Get in the shower, I'll throw these in the dryer," she said. "Thanks," he said as he kissed her. "Of course now go," she said.

From that moment on nothing could separate them. Grayson was never the rebound, he was always the one that she wanted.

lying to you ✦ e. dolan

summary: (part two to ‘upon a star’ series) grayson knows that ethan’s lying to him as he acts like he’s fine. as grayson grows more worried about ethan’s sanity he also becomes more determined to learn about you even if he has no clue who you are.

upon a star series masterlist (updated)

a little over a month passed by and ethan was confident thinking he had the whole world wrapped around his pinky finger. any mention of (your name) was gone and the burning guilt in his stomach and sadness was vanished. grayson was believing him, for the most part, but a small part of him knew his brother so well to the point he could tell ethan was putting up a front, lying to everyone around him. 

which was true. ethan figured it was best to lie to everyone around him to avoid anymore agony and heartbreak cause every mention about you made him crawl deeper into a world full of sadness. any world without you seemed too sad really. yet something ethan didn’t want to admit was he felt worse and worse trying to forget your existence. he knew he was attached to you. but he felt more insane if he talked about somebody none of his friends or family could remember. 

from the overly loud laughter, fake smiles, and purposely ignoring any mention about you grayson could see through all of it and knew ethan was more upset when it came to not talking to someone about you. grayson knew it was a tricky situation but one night he decided to bring you up after a month of not hearing your name. 

“ethan?” grayson asked when he paused the video game they were playing. he turned his attention to ethan and watched as he looked at him, a big smile on his face, forced and not realistic. 

“yeah gray? what’s up? if you’re bored we can go and get something to eat. i was getting kind of hungry.” ethan forced a laugh out as he went to go turn the game off. 

“no, i’m not hungry. i just wanted to talk to you.” 

“okay?” 

“what was she like? tell me about her.” grayson felt uneasy after he spoke, praying that ethan wasn’t pissed with him. grayson felt even more uneasy as he watched ethan’s upper lip twitch, a quick flame in his eyes out of anger, but he took a deep breath and kept a smile on his face. he gritted his teeth as he let out a, “who?”

“(your name)...”

“i don’t know man. i mean i don’t even know a (your name). do you?”

“ethan c’mon man. i don’t know who she was and i don’t recall ever meeting her. but i know she made you happy. i want to help you be happy. and if talking about her makes you happy and sane then let’s talk about her!” 

“i am happy gray. i think you’ve been playing too many video games bro. i think you’re tired. cause i surely don’t know her.” ethan let out a forced laugh, shaking his head at his silly brother who he didn’t believe. he tried so hard to even convince himself that he was fine. 

grayson wanted to push it but he knew he shouldn’t. he glanced over at the clock to see it was midnight. he knew it was best to give ethan some space despite a part of him that wanted to stay to keep an eye on ethan. so grayson said goodnight to ethan and headed to bed. 

grayson laid wide awake in bed, head pounding with questions, seeking for any memory of you. but he couldn’t recall a single detail. he glanced out the window and stared at the sky full of stars and as he did so a unsettling feeling took over him. “something isn’t right” he mumbled to himself before drifting off into an uneasy sleep. 

ethan laid wide awake in bed as well. heart pounding with heartbreak. throat sore from all the crying he was doing. but he laid in bed with a big smile still trying to convince himself that he was anything but sad. he glanced out the window and stared at the sky full of stars and as he did so he remembered the fight the two of you had before he lost you. he was crying uncontrollably but with a smile he said “i’m so happy” before falling asleep. 

but would be unfortunately woken up in a few hours as his mind raced with the fight you both had, having a hard time not thinking about it. and he would cry and cry but would keep a smile on his face only to convince himself and others that he was happy. but he wasn’t and he knew that, and they knew that. 

author’s note: hi everyone i really hoped you enjoyed part two and i hope you were expecting angst. i’m not sure when part three will be out because it all depends on when i have time to update and if i got inspiration to write another part. i’m sorry if this was a short part but i’m gonna work on writing longer parts. i’ve never written a series before so i hope my first one is going good. also i’m getting closer to 200 followers, thank you!

Trapped

Type: One shot | Imagine about Grayson Trigger Warning: Sexual, Blood, Kidnapping, Killing Word Count: 4000+ Rating: Rated R Paring: Hailey + Grayson Enjoy! 

"Don't stop," she moaned.

He kisses his way up her chest, settling the length of his body against hers. His finger drags across her breast as his face hovers over hers.

"Are you ready to work hard for me?" He asked. "It's more if I'm the one that's in control," She asked.

Grinning wickedly, she reaches down and slips his hand into his briefs, finding him already hard. She rubs him softly, enough to make him moan. Leaving him wanting more.  She leans up kissing him passionately. She feels like she's on fire as he runs his hand down to her hips. He moves his hips and flips them over, she's straddling him, chest to chest. She moans into his ear as her hips rock against his. His hands trace a pattern up her spine, reaching for the clasp of her bra.

"I don't think you need this anymore" he whispered in her ear. Pulling her bra off her shoulders, tossing it onto the floor.

His lips graze the bare skin of her breast, his tongue flicking against her nipple. Teasing her slightly as she leans her head back, moaning slightly. She can't catch her breath as the sensations overwhelm her. All she can think is that she needs him. Just as he's about to suck on her nipple there is a knock on the door. She leans against him as the door opens, it's just Ethan. Grayson grabs the blanket and covers them up.

'You are supposed to wait until I answer the door or say come in" Grayson rolls his eyes. "Sorry, are you guys ready?" Ethan asked. "We will be," Grayson snapped. "The plan leaves in like an hour, snap to it," Ethan said as he left the room. "I'm sorry," Grayson said. "It's ok," Haily said as she got off of Grayson. Placing her shirt on before finishing packing their bags.   "Maybe in the cabin, we are staying at we can get some alone time," he said as he sat beside her. "Yea" She nodded as she looked at him. "You better pack warm things, it gets cold in New Jersey," he said. "I've never been so maybe when we get there, you can help me pick out some warm things," she said. "Sure," he nodded.

They finished packing and brought everything down to the living room. Ethan and Kristina were waiting for them. The boys put everything in the car and they were off to the airport. They had no idea that this trip would be the last. They got on the plane and within a few hours, they landed in New Jersey. They met the rest of the crew and went up to the cabin in the woods. It was supposed to be a weekend getaway with friends. They finally got to the cabin, choosing what room everyone was going to stay in.

"Wow, this is beautiful," Hailey said. "Yea I love it out here, especially this time of the year" Grayson wrapped his arms around her. "I see why" she smiled as she wrapped her arms around his neck. "Wait until you see it snow," he said. "Even better" she leaned in and kissed him softly. "Of course" he smiled against her lips. "So this room has a mini-fridge, bathroom, and a fireplace?" she asked. "Yes," he chuckled slightly. "So we could lock ourselves in this room and just enjoy each other" She looked at him. "Yea we could" he smirked as he placed his hands against her hips. "But we would miss all the fun," he said. "We could have fun all by ourselves" she kissed him softly, pulling on his bottom lip. "True," he smiled.

He deepens the kiss, sliding his hand around her waist. Holding her close, moving her back towards the bed. She reaches for her shirt, undoing it by pulling it over his head. He pushes her on the bed, she lays back watching him move over the top of her.  He leans in kissing her before leaving a trail along her jaw, down to her neck. Sliding his hands up her sides, removing her shirt. Throwing it to the floor before placing his lips back against her neck. Grayson's mouth trails down her body, giving attention to her nipples before dipping down to her stomach, going lower. He looks up at her before undoing her pants, slipping them off of her hips. She pulls him up, kissing him softly. Pushing her hips up, flipping them over as she straddles him.

"You're good at that" he smiles as he lays his head back, just watching her. "I know" she smirks, leaning down kissing him.

She leaves a trail of kisses down his jaw, to his neck. Slowly moving down his chest, kissing his stomach as she reaches to the top of his jeans. Someone knocks on the door, Hailey sighs and wraps the blanket around her. Darting off to the bathroom before Grayson answered the door. Of course, it was Ethan once again, Grayson rolled his eyes once he realized it was Ethan.

"What E?" Grayson asked. "Just heading to the store to get supplies, do you guys need anything?" Ethan asked. "I don't think so, Hailey?" Grayson asked. "Just some snacks," she said as she walked out, messing with her hair. "Alright," Ethan nodded and walked away. "Seriously, when are we going to get actual alone time?" She asked. "I'm sorry," Grayson said as he wrapped his arm around her waist. "It's ok, I'm going to go fix something to eat, do you want anything?" she asked. "Whatever you are making" he nodded. "Alright babe" she leaned up and kissed him softly before walking out the room.

She asked everyone else if they wanted anything before she started to cook. No one else wanted anything to eat so she just cooked for Grayson and herself. She brought the food back to their room and they ate by the fireplace. The rest of the night everyone just chilled in their room. Haily cuddled up with Grayson in the bed, drifting off to sleep. Everyone was surprised that it snowed overnight.

"Babe woke up," Haily said as she nudged Grayson. "Uh?" he groaned. "It snowed," she said. "Really? Already?" he asked as he rubbed his eyes. "Yea I think it's at least 15 inches," she said. "Snow day," he said as he sat up. "Yea" she looked at him. "I'm not used to this," she admitted. "I know babe but you'll love it" he wrapped his arm around her. "I already do," she leaned into his chest. "I love you" he kissed the top of her head. "I love you," she said as she played with his hand. 'Come on let's get up and get ready for the day" he said.

They both went into the bathroom, Hailey turned on the sink. They both stood in front of the sink and brushed their teeth. She rinsed first and whipped her mouth on the towel. Placing her against his stomach, slowly leaving her touch on his skin as she left the bathroom. He smiled to himself as he finished brushing his teeth. He whipped his mouth before walking after her. She was in the kitchen making breakfast.

"Did you guys notice the snow?" Kristinia asked. "Yea we saw it" Hailey nodded. "So much of it," Grayson said as he made himself a cup of coffee. "Yea and it supposed to snow more tonight," Ethan said as he wrapped his arm around Christina "Really?" Hailey asked. "Yea" Grayson took a sip from his cup. "We are trapped for at least a week," Grayson said. "Well I wouldn't want to be anywhere else" Hailey placed her arms around Gray's neck. "I wouldn't either" he smiled, leaning down kissing her softly. "Get a room you two" Ethan rolled his eyes. "We have and yet someone keeps walking in on us," Grayson said as he shot Ethan a look. "I knock before I come in," Ethan smirks. "Uh-huh," Grayson said. "So we are going to have a snow fight?" Nate asked as he walked into the kitchen. "Oh it's so on," Ethan said. "Well let's go," Nate said. "I'm going to eat before I head out to the cold" Hailey said as she turned her focus back on cooking. "Yea same" Grayson said as he moved behind Hailey, resting his hand on her hip. "Where are Anna and Tyler?" Ethan asked. "Still sleeping," Nate responded. "What about Sam?" Grayson asked. "Probably still sleeping," Nate said. "WAKE UP EVERYONE!!! IT SNOWED" Ethan yelled as he walked through the house. Making sure everyone could hear him.

Sam, Tyler, and Anana came out of their rooms, groaning at Ethan for waking them up. Hailey finished cooking and they all sat down to eat before going out in the snow. Grayson cleaned up the kitchen before going into the room with Hailey. She was getting ready for the snow but he knew she wasn't ready for it. He handed her his hoodie so she could stay warm.

"You are going to need extra layers," he said. "Thank you," she said as she grabbed his hoodie. "I want to make sure you are warm," he said. "You can once we come back inside" she smirked. "Oh I know" he pulled her to him, leaning down kissing her.

She smiled against his lips before pulling away. They finished getting ready and they headed out the door with everyone else. Of course, Ethan started a snowball fight. Hailey hid behind a tree, as she made snowballs. Throwing them at everyone, no one was safe. The air was crisp but also filled with laughter from everyone. The wind started to pick up and it started to get colder. As the wind picked up the view started to get worse. She couldn't see anything, she didn't realize how far she was in the woods until she couldn't see the house. She started to walk in the woods trying to find her way back to the house. She stumbled and fell over someone, there was a body. She started screaming once she realized that it was a dead body. She hurried to her feet and started to run through the woods. She came to a barn and she entered, just trying to catch her breath and stay warm.

"Guys where is Hailey?" Grayson asked as they made their way to the house. "She was behind that tree,'' Ethan said. "She's not there anymore," Grayson said with worry. "I'm sure she's near," Christina said. "Yea she will be back," Anna said.

They went inside the house, Grayson stayed by the window worried about Hailey. Hailey noticed a fire pit so she walked over there, trying to get warm. That's when she noticed more bodies and a lot of blood. She slowed her breathing when she heard someone coming, she ducked into a stall. The guy was dragging someone, dropping them in front of the stall. She could tell the person was still alive but she kept quiet, placing her hand over her mouth. She closed her eyes not wanting to see what he was going to do to the person. She could still hear every detail. She leaned against the wall, keeping her hand over her mouth. She could hear the shallow moans from the guy. Then she heard the crack of his neck, the sound of his falling to the ground. She closed her eyes, trying to slow her breathing and her heart rate. She could hear the sawing of flesh, the bones crushing. The blood dripped off the table. There was an iron smell in the air. When she heard the footsteps walk away that's when she knew she needed to run. She left the stall and started running towards the woods. She finally made it back to the house, right when they were about to go looking for her.

"Hailey," Grayson said. "Get inside NOW," Hailey said as she grabbed him. "Whoa I'm here," Grayson said as he held onto her, going back into the house. "Where were you?" Ethan asked. "Guys we need to leave," Hailey said as she caught her breath. "Why?" Anna asked. "Because we do," Hailey said. "Breath Hailey" Grayson rubbed her back. "What happened?" he asked. "I got lost in the woods and I stumbled over a body," Hailey said. "Yea yea whatever" Ethan rolled his eyes. "I'm serious, and then I went into a barn to get warm," She said as her mind was racing. "I ducked into a stall when the guy returned and he had someone" Hailey closed her eyes trying not to remember the sounds. "Good joke" Nate laughed slightly. "It's not a joke," Hailey said. "Trying to scare us so you can be alone with Grayson," Ethan said. "I'm not joking, we NEED to leave," she said. "The roads are trash and with the next storm coming, no planes are flying," Sam said. "True," Grayson said as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Then we can leave this house," Hailey said. "I'm serious, guys," she said.

No one truly took her seriously and went on with their day. Grayson took her into their room, locking the door behind them. She just sat on the bed, trying to get the sounds out of her mind. She placed her head down in her hands, Grayson sat next to her. Rubbing her back trying to help but honestly, he didn't know what to do.

"Do you believe me?" she whispered. "I want to babe," he said. "but no one lives that close to this cabin" he admitted. "Gray" she looked at him. "I want to believe you," he said. "I'm not joking and I'm not crazy," she said as she stood up. "I know babe" he sighed. "I just don't know," he said. "Fine you guys keep acting like nothing is happening but I'm staying my ass in this cabin until I'm able to leave" she crossed her arms. "Ok just calm down" Grayson stood up, grabbing her hips. "No you don't get to touch me" she pulled away from him. "I'm sorry," he said. "I believe something did happen to you in the woods," he said. "Now you are just saying that" she crossed her arms. "I'm not," he said. "Because when you came running up into my arms, I felt your heart racing so yes something happened," he said. "Yea something did happen and I'm terrified" she looked at him. "I know you are" he pulled her to him, wrapping his arms around her. "I'm scared Grayson" she held onto him, snuggling her head into his neck. "I got you and I won't let anything happen to you" he whispered.

She stayed in Grayson's arms, trying to feel safe. They stayed in their rooms, just cuddling on the bed. A few hours went by and it started snowing again. Added 6 more inches on the snow they already had. They were truly trapped in the cabin in the woods with no way to leave. Hailey started to drift off to sleep when the lights started to flicker.

"Babe I need to get up," Grayson said. "Go," she said as she moved slightly, allowing him to get up. "If the lights go out we need to get the generator going," he said. "Ok" she nodded as she snuggled to the pillow. "I'll be back" he leaned down and kissed her cheek.

He left the room and Grayson and Ethan went outside to work on the generator. Making sure it had gas and no snow around it so it would kick in if they did lose power. Once they finished they came back inside, Grayson rejoined Hailey in their room. He laid back in the bed and snuggled up to her. She was already fast asleep when he returned. He wrapped a blanket around them, wrapping his arms around her. Making sure she felt safe before drifting off to sleep. Sometimes during the night, the lights did go out.

"Where am I?" Hailey mumbled in her sleep. "I can stay in here until the wind dies down," she said. "Babe?" Grayson groaned as he pulled her closer. "Shhh," he said. "Who's there?" she asked. "Babe wakes up" he rubbed her back, gently waking her up. "Uh? What?" she rubbed her eyes. "You were having a bad dream," he said. "It's freezing in here" she snuggled closer to him. "The power is out, I'll start a fire," he said as he got up out of bed. "Hurry back," she said as she snuggled under the blankets.

He smiled at her before starting a fire. He made sure it was going well before he returned to bed. Wrapping his arms around her as she pulled the blanket over him. She snuggled back to his chest. falling back to sleep. In the morning she woke up without Grayson in the bed. She shuffled in the sheets before getting out of the bed. Slipping her robe on before making her way into the living room.

"What do you mean you don't know where he is?" Grayson asked. "He said he was going into town to get some more supplies," Ethan said. "And when was this?" Grayson crossed his arms. "Over three hours ago," Ethan said. "Wait, who's missing?" Hailey asked. "Nate," Anna said. "None of the cars are working so he went by foot?" Grayson asked. "Yes," Christina said. "After yesterday, how could anyone let him go?" Hailey asked. "Sorry to disappoint you but no one believes you" Ethan rolls his eyes. "Uh-huh," Hailey crossed her arms. "Now Nate is missing," she said. "Doesn't mean what you said is true," Tyler said. "Fine, don't believe me," Hailey said. "Take it easy on her" Grayson moved in front of Hailey. "We need to find Nate," he said. "I'll go and see if I can find him," Tyler said. "I'm the one whose cell phone is still working," Tyler said. "Be careful," Ethan said.

Tyler got ready and left the cabin. Ethan stayed at the door until Tyler disappeared in the distance. As he closed the door the generator went out.

"Do we have any more gas? Wood?" Christina asked. "Yes we have enough wood to keep us warm but not enough gas," Ethan said. "So we are all dead," Hailey sighed. "How are we getting out of here?" she questioned. "Until the snow melts or the roads get better," Grayson said. "Great" Hailey rolled her eyes and went back into their room. "This isn't the first time we have been trapped in the storm, '' Grayson said as he followed her. "I know that Grayson but there is no way out," she said. "And with a killer in the woods, we are sitting ducks," she said. "Just calm down" he sat on the bed, pulling her onto his lap. "I'm scared Grayson" she placed her hand on the back of his neck, messing with his hair. "I know but you are safe with me" he looked up at her, wrapping his arms around her. "I feel safe when I'm in your arms" she leaned down and kissed him softly. "HELPPPPPPP" Someone screamed. "What was that?" Grayson said as both Hailey and he got up off the bed. "Who was that? Ethan asked. "Grayson" Hailey said as she pulled him to the window.

Everyone watched Tyler getting dragged into the woods. It was clear he wasn't awake since he wasn't fighting or screaming anymore. They watched until the guy disappeared with Tyler.

"Now believe me?" Hailey asked. "What do we do?" Grayson said as he tried to catch his breath. "No one leaves this cabin," Ethan said. "Why is that guy doing this?" Christina asked. "What's going on guys?" Sam asked as he walked out of his room. "Tyler and Nate are missing," Ethan said. "And we just watched Tyler being dragged into the woods," Grayson said. "We have to go help them," Sam said. "And do what exactly?" Hailey asked. "I don't know, they are our friends. We have to help" Sam said. "We have to come up with a plan before we go out there," Grayson said. "You aren't going anywhere!" Hailey said. "He's right, we can't just let our friends get killed," Grayson turned to face her. "But you could get hurt," Hailey said. "We will be careful," Grayson said. "If one goes we all go," Anna said. "Yea we aren't staying here," Christina said.

Everyone that was left in the house got ready to go out in the snow. They left the cabin and Hailey led them to where the barn is. They stayed in the woods as they could see the guy tying up Tyler. They could also see Nate tied up but Nate looked like he had been through hell. Once the guy disappeared into the house they ran to the barn. Splitting up so they wouldn't get caught. Grayson went to get Nate as Ethan went to go get Tyler.

"HELPPPPP" Tyler yelled as he came too. "Shhh, I'm here," Ethan said. "Get me out of here," Tyler said. "I am" Ethan nodded as he undid the ties, Tyler falling into Ethan's arms. "Nate?" Grayson asked as he tried to undo the tie. "Uh?" Nate said as he opened his eyes. "I got you," Grayson said as he finished undoing the tie. Dropping Nate into his arms. Sam rushed over to help. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?" The guy asked as he walked into the barn. "Getting my friends!" Grayson said. Sam picked up Nate and ran back into the woods. "GRAYSON COME ON" Hailey yelled from the woods. "You messed with the wrong ones," Grayson said "Oh really?" The guy asked.

As Grayson turned to run away from the barn. The guy grabbed him, pulling him back. Grayson tried to struggle but the guy was stronger. Grayson could feel the knife stabbing him in the stomach. He yelled out before dropping to the ground. Everyone thought Grayson was with them but they turned to see Grayson laying on the barn floor. They all rushed back attacking the guy. Tyler was finally able to call for help. Hailey rushed to where Grayson was lying. Placing her jacket over the stab wound.

'I got you," Hailey said. "Stay with me Grayson," she said as she propped his head upon her leg. "Hailey" Grayson looked at her. "I'm here baby" she ran her hand through his hair. "I love you" he placed his hand on her cheek. "I love you" she leaned into his touch. "You will be ok," she said as she fought back tears. "GRAYSON" Ethan rushed to his side after tying up the guy. "Ethan" Grayson looked at him. "I love you brother," Grayson said. "Help is on their way, hang on," Ethan said as he grabbed Grayson's hand. "It's cold," Grayson said as he started to close his eyes. "No no no focus on me," Hailey said. "Take care of her," Grayson whispered.

His hand dropped from her face, his grip loosened on Ethan's hand. Hailey started to cry as Grayson was slipping away. Finally, the police and an ambulance showed up. Taking Hailey, Grayson, and Nate to the hospital. She never left his side until they arrived at the hospital. She was in the waiting room, pacing back and forth when everyone else got there.

"Hailey!" Ethan rushed to her. "Any word?" he asked. "Not yet," she said as she had tears running down her face. "He will be ok," Ethan said as he pulled her to his chest, hugging her tightly. "I hope so," she said as she pulled away, rubbing her eyes. "He will be," Christina said as she hugged Hailey. "Are you Ethan? Hailey?" the doctor asked as he walked over to them. "Yea I'm Ethan," Ethan said. "Hailey," Hailey said. "He's asking for you two," the doctor said. "Really?" Ethan said. "He's ok?" Hailey asked. "Yes room 208" the doctor nodded as they rushed down the hallway.

They walked into the room and Grayson was laying in the bed awake. His face lit up when he saw Hailey and Ethan walking in.

"Grayson" Ethan smiled. "Hey brother," Grayson smiled. "Come here," Grayson said. Ethan walked over and hugged Grayson. "We were so worried," Ethan said. "Nate is doing fine," Ethan said. "That's good," Grayson nodded and looked at Hailey. "Come here," Grayson said. "You're ok," Hailey said. "Come here baby," Grayson said. "You can breathe, I'm ok" he said

She walked over to him and hugged him. He pulled her onto the bed, knowing she was worried about him. She buried her face into his neck as she cried. She couldn't believe that he was ok. He rubbed her back, calming her down as she lay against him. Grayson and Nate had to stay overnight at the hospital. Once they were released they went back home to L.A. It wasn't the vacation that they were expecting, nor would they ever forget.

Chance Encounter

Type: One Shot about Grayson Dolan Rating: Rated PG Word Count: 3600+ Pairing: Grayson and Riley Enjoy!

Her 18th birthday was coming up and she was dreading it. Turning 18 here just meant that she would have to marry the guy her father picked for her. A guy she never met before but she hated that thought of having to marry someone. She didn't even know if she truly wanted to get married. She wanted a life where she just depended on herself, not some guy she barely even knew. She was walking home from school when her best friend caught up with her.

"Riley, wait up," Joshua said. "What Josh?" Riley said as she waited for him to catch up. "Just wanted to walk with you" he smiled softly. "Thank you but honestly don't want to go home," she said. "Wedding dress fitting?" Josh said. "Yea, I don't want to get married," she said. "Why can't you stop it?" Josh said. "It's tradition," Riley sighed. "I'm sure you can get out of it," Josh said. "I'm trying my best," Riley said. "Come on," he said as he grabbed her hand.

He led her to the path behind the school. Going down towards the lake. She placed her bag on the table and went down towards the water. She loved being by the water, the sound of nature was peaceful. The peace was disrupted by her phone going off, she sighed and walked back up the shore. Grabbing her bag and hugging Josh before leaving. She was making her way towards her house when these guys ran past her. Knocking her over, scraping her knee on the sidewalk.

"WATCH IT!" She yelled out. "I'm sorry for them," Someone said as they held out their hand. "Thanks," She said as she grabbed his hand getting up. "I am sorry. Are you ok?" He asked. "Just scraps but I'll live," she said as she looked at him. "Good" he smiled slightly as their eyes met. "Are you new in town?" she questioned. "Something like that," he responded. "I'm Riley" she looked at him. "I'm Grayson," he smiled. "Nice to meet you. Will I see you around town?" she questioned. "Leaving town as quickly as I can but I'll be around for a few days" he responded. "See you" She smiled as she walked away.

A small notebook fell from her book bag without her noticing. She walked away and disappeared around the corner as he picked up the book. He rushed behind her but couldn't seem to find her. He caught up with his friends as she made it home. Walking in the apartment and it seemed like the wedding dress fairy threw up in the living room.

"You are late," her mother said. "I know, trying to avoid this, '' Riley said as she rolled her eyes. "Oh come on you will love it," Her mother said. "I'm sure I won't," She responded. "Just go try some dressing on" her mother pushed her into the other room.

Riley tried a few dresses on and she hated every single one of them. The last dress she tried on was her dream wedding dress. She came out and her mother knew it was the one. Putting the veil on Riley as Riley looked at herself in the mirror.

"This one is perfect," Riley said. "Yea it is," her mother said. "Perfect for the moment I decide to get married," Riley said. "Two more days' her mother responded. "No, not in two days! I want it on my terms with a guy I love" Riley said. "Honey this is what it is meant to be," Her mother said. "No, it's not!" Riley said as she stormed off back into the other room.

She slammed the door making sure it was locked. Leaning against the wall as the tears slipped from her eyes onto her cheeks. This dress was the perfect one but it should be for the perfect guy. She wiped her eyes and took the dress off, placing it back in the bag it came out of. Getting dressed and leaving the room, without speaking a word she went straight to her room. She searched through her bag looking for her notebook realizing she must have dropped it.

"This day just gets better," she said to herself.

She grabbed another notebook and started to write. Putting her headphones in listening to music, just being in her little world for a while.  She didn't realize what time it was until her father barged into her room and pulled her headphones out of her ear.

"Get downstairs for dinner," he said. "Excuse you," she said as she stood up. "You heard me, now go," he said as he grabbed her arm. 'Alright let go" She said as she pulled away and went downstairs.

She sat down next to her brother as her mother already made her plate. She sat in silence as they started to eat. She finally started to eat.

"So your mother told me you found a dress," her father said. "That I'm not wearing," Riley said. "You will wear it in two days," her father said. "Why can't I get a say?" she questioned. "Because girls don't get a say in our tradition," he said. "It's time to change that tradition," she said. "You don't get to make that choice," he said. "It will be perfect, you just have to wait," he said. "I'm not going!" She said, "You will," he said. "I can't believe this family," she said as she got up from the table. "Don't be rude, ask if you can be excused" he said. "Can I be?" she crossed her arms. "Yes, now do your school work and then onto getting ready for bed," he said. "Whatever," she said as she went back upstairs.

She laid down on the bed and just stared at the ceiling. She ended up falling asleep. She awoke in the morning when the sun peeked through the window. She got out of bed and quickly got ready for school, wanting to get out of the house as quickly as possible. She grabbed a bottle of water and left the house, heading towards school.

"Slow down," Someone said behind her. "What Josh?" She said as she turned but it wasn't Josh. "Oh hey," she smiled as she saw Grayson. "You dropped this yesterday and I didn't know how to get it to you," he said as he handed her notebook. "That's where it went," she grabbed the book. "Thank you," she said. "I didn't read it, '' he said as he walked with her. "You would only read how much I hate my family," she said. "Well then make your own" he suggested. What do you mean?" she questioned. "Leave them and just do it on your own, find friends that make you happy," he said. "Wish it was that easy," she said. "It is, you just can't be scared to jump," he said. "Fear always holds us back from living our lives," she said. "Yea so don't be scared," he said. "Anyway I'm leaving tonight, meet me at the station?" he asked. "The train station?" she questioned. "Yea the train station" he nodded as he stopped walking. "When night falls before the train leaves, I'll wait," he said. "I'll think about it," she said. "See you tonight," he said as he walked away.

She watched him walk away until she couldn't see him anymore. She turned and started to walk towards school. All-day she just couldn't get him off her mind. She knew that tomorrow would be the day her life would forever be changed. A change she didn't want nor was she ready for it. Tomorrow was the day she would have to say I do or tonight was the night to break free. She didn't know what to do but she couldn't focus all day. She was in the courtyard when Josh caught up with her.

"Hey, you," he said as he sat next to her. "Hey," she said. "What's wrong?" he asked her. "The wedding is tomorrow," she said. "I know. What are you going to do?" he asked. "I was thinking about something," she said. "What Riley?" he questioned. "I'm leaving," she said. "What do you mean?" He looked at her. "I'm going to buy a ticket and leave. I'm of age and there's nothing they can do" she said. "Sounds like a plan but please stay safe," Josh said as he hugged her. "Please text me so I know you are safe," he said. "I will," she said as she hugged him back.

She left school and went back to the house, once again there was a bunch of wedding stuff in the living room. She walked by and went straight to her room, thinking about what Grayson said. Was it silly to want to go with him? She just met him but in some way, she felt safe with him. She sat on her balcony and wrote in her notebook. She had everything any girl would die for but it's not what she wanted. She was comfortable but maybe it was time to start fresh and get a new start. As the sun started to set she started to pack a few things in her bag. Making her way to her father's office, opening the safe. She only took the money that was meant for her and the wedding. She sneaked out the back door and started making her way to the train station. She finally made it to the station, she looked around for him but she couldn't find him. She bought a ticket anyway, no matter if he was there or not she wanted to leave.

"Guess I'll start fresh by myself," she said. "All by yourself?" a stranger said. "What?" She responded as she faced him. "You are a pretty little thing," the guy said as he got closer to her. "I'm not interested," she said as she backed away from him. 'Oh come on sweetheart" the guy grabbed her hand. "Please don't touch me," she said as she pulled away from him. "Come on," he said. "You won't regret it," he said. "She said no so back off," Grayson said as he pulled the guy back. "I wasn't talking to you, '' the guy said. "Well I'm talking to you, leave her alone '' Grayson said. "Back off dude," the guy said.

With those words, it angered Grayson. He pulled the guy away from Riley and punched him. Knocking him to the ground, hitting him a few more times. Grayson then turned to Riley to make sure she was ok.

"Are you ok?" he asked. "Yea I'm ok, but are you?" she asked as she grabbed his hand. His knuckles were bruised and bleeding. "Yea I'll be alright," he said. "I thought you left," she said. "And I thought you weren't coming," he said. "Well here I am," she nodded. "Let's go," he said as he reached for his hand. "Let's go" she grabbed his hand and went onto the train with him.

The train left the station as her father walked into her room. She left a note on the bed and he realized that she was gone. He grabbed the note and went downstairs where her mother was at.

"Where is Riley?" Her mother asked. "She left this note but I don't see her," he responded. "Are you serious? We have to call the police" her mother said. "She's of age after midnight so there's not much they could do," he said. "There has to be something," her mother said. "Unfortunately no" her father sighed as he sat down.

Her mother started to panic and started calling Riley's phone. Riley was sat next to Grayson, not knowing what to do. It was her first time on a train so she had no clue what to expect. She looked down at her phone realizing that her mom was calling her. She kept ignoring the calls and ended up turning off her phone.

"Guess they noticed I was gone," she said. "You left a note?" Grayson asked. "Yea I did" she nodded. "I know it's hard leaving but I'm sure you have a good reason," he said. "Yea I do" She looked at Grayson. "Just want to be free," she said. "Freedom from our parents," he said. "You are on the run too?" she questioned. "Something like that" he laid back in the seat. "How old are you?" she asked. "I'm 19, you?" he asked. "I'm turning 18 in about an hour," she said. "Oh so tomorrow is your birthday," he smiled. "Well let me do the honors and be the first to say Happy Birthday," he said. "Thanks" She smiled. "To new adventures," he said as he grabbed two drinks from the drink cart. "To new adventures," she said as she grabbed the drink. Clinking them together as they both took a sip.

Grayson sat back down next to her. They started talking and time just seemed to melt away. She laid her head down on his shoulder as they talked. She started to drift off to sleep, he wrapped his jacket around her. Allowing her to sleep against him as he leaned back, starting to drift off himself. Around 7 am the train stopped and it was time to get off, he gently woke her up.

"Morning sleepyhead, time to get off," he said. "Morning" she yawned as she got up.

They got off the train, she didn't know where they were. He did because this was a town that he would normally visit once or twice a year. Plus he grew up here during the summers so he knew his way around. He grabbed her hand and led her out of the station. Taking her to one of his favorite spots, where he would always go when he was younger.

"How do you know your way around? she asked as he held the door open for her. "Because we would come here once or twice a year, plus like every summer," he said as he followed her. "Oh nice" she nodded as she sat down. "Yea never been here during the fall though," he said as he sat next to her. "It's so pretty here," she said. 'What's good here?" she questioned as she looked at the menu. "Anything really,"  he said. "I normally get the soup," he said. "The cheddar soup?" she asked. "Think I'll get that plus some breadsticks," she said. "That's a good combo," he said.

They ordered what they wanted. He turned to her and they picked up where they left off last night. They were laughing and carrying on like they knew each other forever. The food arrived at the table and things got quiet.  Once he finished eating he went to the counter. Ordering a few milkshakes before paying the bill. She was still eating when he returned with the shakes.

"Milkshakes?" she smiled. "Of course," he said as he placed them on the table. "No rush though," he said as he sat next to her. "I'm a slow eater," she said. "That's fine," he smiled softly. "Did you pay already?" she asked. "I have money," she said. "I got it," he nodded. "Thanks," she said as she finished eating.

They left the restaurant and he showed her around town for a few hours. The wind started to pick up as they started to walk. He offered her his hoodie and she gladly took it. Putting it on as they continued to walk around town. He yelled for a taxi and opened the door for her. They got in and he gave the driver an address and they were off. They arrived at the house right around when it started to get dark. He reached for her hand to help her get out of the car. She grabbed it and got out, following him inside the dark house.

"What are we doing here?" she whispered. "We are staying here," he said as he flipped on a light. "Wait what?" she asked. "Well at least for a few days," he said. "Oh, do you know the owners?" she looked at him. "You are looking at him," he said. "Oh," she nodded. "Come on," he said as he grabbed her hand.

He led her out towards the backyard, the view was breathtaking. The mountains in the distance, the sky full of stars. The moon was so bright it was like the universe was telling her that everything was going to be ok. She sat on the deck and looked up at the sky. He sat next to her and watched the stars with her.

"Why would you run away from this place?" she asked. "I wasn't running from this place but my home," he said. "This is beautiful" she looked at him. "You are beautiful," he said as he looked at her. "Stop"  She started blushing as she looked back up. "It's true," he said as he placed his hand on her cheek.

She looked at him, their eyes met once more. He brushed his thumb against her cheek. She moved a little closer to him. He leaned in towards her, placing his lips against hers. Kissing her slowly as she placed her hand against his chest. She kept the kiss between them as she placed her hand on his cheek. He gently pulled at her bottom lip, placing his hands on her hips pulling her closer. He slowly pulled away as his phone started to ring. He got up from the deck and went inside quickly to answer the phone. Only seconds later he came out with a cupcake with a candle on it. Knowing today was her birthday, he smiled as he sat down next to her.

"Happy birthday," he said. "Aw thank you," she said as she took the cupcake. "Make a wish," he said. "Um," She closed her eyes and blew out the candle. "I know it's not much," he said. "It's enough" she looked at him. "Today was the day that was supposed to change my life," he said. "Same" she responded. "Same?" he questioned. "Today was my wedding day," she said. "Whoa what?" he moved from her. "You have a fiance?" he said. "No, I don't have a fiance. It's an arrangement but I left" she said. "An arranged marriage?" he moved closer to her. "Yea it's tradition," she said. "Oh," he nodded. "Why was today supposed to change your life?" she questioned. "Not important," he said.

She nodded and decided to go back into the house. She went upstairs looking around, she found the bedroom. He followed her upstairs and leaned against the door frame. Just watching her look around the room. She sat on the bed and laid back, looking up at the ceiling. To her surprise, she was staring right at herself in a mirror.

"I didn't put that there," Grayson said with a chuckle. "It's kinda cute but really weird," she laughed. "Yea it is," he said as he laid next to her. "What are you thinking about?" he asked as placed his arm around her. "Just stuff" she looked at him. "I'm sorry your family put you through that," he said. "At least I got out of that situation," she said as she turned on her side facing him. "Yea but if I never came along would you have gotten married?" he asked, brushing the hair out of her face. "I would have still left because I didn't want to get married," she said. "You should stick up for what you believe in," he said. "Thank you" she leaned over and kissed him softly.

He smiled against her lips before kissing her back. She cuddled close to his chest and started to fall asleep. He wasn't too far behind her as he fell asleep holding her in his arms. In the morning she woke up alone in the bed, sitting up stretching as she turned her phone back on. Her father and mother had sent plenty of messages. She sighed and opened the ones from her father's. She read through them and he just told her that she lost a chance of marrying a prince. She kept scrolling down, she gasped and her phone dropped to the floor. Her father sent a picture of the guy she was meant to marry and it was a picture of Grayson.  Funny how the universe works out. Grayson walked upstairs with breakfast on a tray. He put it on the bed as he kneeled in front of her. It was like she was frozen in time not knowing what to do.

"Babe?" he said as he shook her arm gently. "Are you ok?" he asked. "It's you," she said as she looked at him. "What?" He looked at her confused. "It's you," she said once again. "Me what?" He grabbed her phone and saw the message. "I had no idea," he said.

She stayed quiet not knowing what to say. How was it just a few days short of her wedding day when he arrived in town. It should have clicked sooner for her but it didn't. Now she didn't know what to do, plus he was a prince. What did he have to run away from or was he running to find her? Did he know that she didn't want to get married to him so he had to find her to change her mind? There were so many questions running through her mind and she didn't even know where to start.

Dolan Twins Preferences #5: Date Night (Quarantine Edition)

Grayson: Even after years of dating Grayson always made me feel special. Always sending flowers to my work, or leaving little notes around the house. I always sent him random things as well, it was easy showing our love. Unfortunately, since COVID came into America, our lives had been turned upside down. Just like everyone else, we had to work from home. It seemed that we were always in each other's way. Either he was trying to film with Ethan, which by the way had to move in with us. Or he was trying to build something. It seemed like I was connected to my computer which I hated. I always tried to make it a point to leave work at work and focus on my personal life at home. With these stay at home orders, work came home and it was putting a strain on our relationship. “Babe? You busy?” he asked as he leaned against the door frame. “I just finished for now,” I said as I turned to face him. “Is it possible that we could do something tonight?” he asked. “Everything is closed,” I said. “I know that, at home. I just wanted to have a date night” he moved closer to me. Placing his hand against my hip as he looked down. “Date night?” I asked as I looked up at him. “Yea date night, I have something in mind” he said. “I would love to” I said. “But?” he said. “No, but, I would love too” I smiled as I looked up at him. “Good” he leaned down and kissed me softly. I smiled against his lips before kissing him. “Stay up here, no peaking outside,” he said. “Alright deal” I said. “Love you” he kissed my forehead before heading downstairs. It was hard not to peak but I kept my word and waited for his return. He soon came back upstairs with a blindfold. “Put this on,” he said. “Only because I trust you,” I said as I placed the blindfold over my eyes. He guided me downstairs and into the backyard, we stopped moving and he got in front of me. He lifted off the blindfold and I just smiled as I looked around. He had sat up a picnic spot with plenty of pillows and blankets, a screen so we could watch a movie. “Grayson,” I said. “I wanted to reset things and get back to us,” he said. “This is perfect,” I said. “Come on” he grabbed my hand leading me towards the picnic. We sat down on the blanket as the movie started. It was perfect timing because the sun was just setting, it was beautiful. He pulled out some chocolate covered strawberries and other fruits. He picked up one of the strawberries and held it to my lips. I took a bite and smiled at him. He finished the strawberry as I leaned back. He moved closer to me wrapping his arm around me, pulling the blanket around us. I rested my head against his chest, tracing his tattoos on his leg. By the time the movie was finished the stars were out. I moved the pillow so I could fully lay back, looking up at the stars. “There's so many tonight” he whispered. “Yea it's a beautiful night,” I said. “Just as beautiful as you,” he said as he played with my fingers. “I love you,” I said as I looked at him. “I love you” he slightly moved over me, kissing my lips softly. I placed my hand against his chest as I kept the kiss between us. He pulled away softly as he got up from the blanket. I watched him as he went inside for a quick second. Music started playing as well as a light show on the screen. He returned back outside and reached for my hand. I took his hand and got up, he placed my arms around my neck. He placed his arms around my waist as we started dancing to the music. It was a perfect ending to a date night that we both needed.

Ethan: It was always an adventure with Ethan, he never likes sitting in one place for too long. That meant a lot of long nights, and sleeping in until noon. I loved every moment with him, he was the one for me. Since we had to be staying home it was kinda hard for both of us. We would make forts, stay in the pool until the sunrise. We both started working from home so our schedule started to clash. I needed to wake up at a certain hour to get the work done but he always wanted to stay up late. Somehow we started getting back on the right path between us and started having fun again. This whole thing felt like a big vacation from the real world. “Babe?” Ethan called out. “Yeah?” I walked into the bedroom. “There you are” he smiled as he saw me. “Here I am,” I said. “What you up too?” he said as he moved towards me, kissing my cheek softly. “I'm done with work for today,” I said. “Really?” he said. “Yeah, what are you up too?” I questioned. “We just finished the video, you want to do something?” he asked. “Like?” I asked.  “Beach?” he looked at me. “Anything with you is worth the risk” I smiled. “Let's go,” he said. I nodded and went to get ready as he did. We left the house and started to make our way to the beach. Of course, we had a mask on until we were in public, away from everyone else. The beach was pretty empty though, the sun setting was always a sight to see. Especially at the beach because the water just made it that much more beautiful. I sat down on the sand as he sat down behind me, wrapping his arms around me. I leaned back against him as we watched the sunset. “I love simple date nights with you,” I said. “Grayson is sitting up a bonfire” he whispered in my ear. “Sounds fun,” I said. “I'm going to go get the 4-wheeler,” he said as he got up. “Ok babe,” I said. He left and soon returned on the 4-wheeler. I got up and got on the back of the 4-wheeler, putting my helmet on as well. I wrapped my arms around him. We rode down by the water, trying not to get the 4-wheeler too wet. I rested my head against his shoulder as I enjoyed the ride. We finally made it back to the house and Grayson had the fire pit going. Once Gray saw us he went inside and allowed our alone time together. “I have marshmallows, chocolate and stuff for s'mores,” he said. “You know the way to my heart” I said as I sat down by the fire. He sat next to me handing me a stick for the marshmallows. I started to roast mine as he did his. We made a few s'mores before we laid back in the chairs, he pulled me closer to him. “I'm so lucky to call you mine,” he said. “I'm the lucky one” I looked up at him. “Hush it” he rolled his eyes. “I love you” I kissed his lips softly. “I love you,” he said against my lips. “I can't wait for everything to be back open” I said. “I know right, going stir crazy,” he said. “Same” I admitted. “But you help a lot” he brushed the hair from my face. “You help” I looked at him. “Let's go watch the sunrise,” he said. “We have a few more hours, let's just stay here” I rubbed his chest. “Ok babe” he snuggled closer to me. We both didn't get to watch the sunrise because we both fell asleep in each other's arms. I couldn't wait to actually got out again for our date nights, but I loved his ideas for date night inside.

Keeping A Secret

Type: One-Shot | Imagine about Grayson  Word Count: 3,442 Rating: Rated PG Enjoy! 

It was such a nice day in LA that I actually wanted to go out for a run. I normally would work out inside because it was so hot outside. I guess you could say I was used to the cold but wanted to change. I pulled my hair back as I made my way downstairs. I slipped on my shoes and grabbed my phone and headphones. I made my way outside making sure my apartment was a lock before turning on my music. I started jogging down the sidewalk making my way to the park. It was good to get out and get some fresh air. I started making laps on the trails, just minding my own business. I finally stopped and looked out towards the lake.

“Nice view isn't it,” someone said.

“Yea it is” I nodded as I looked towards where the voice was coming from.

“I come here all the time, get away from the city scene” he admitted.

“Its nice and peaceful” I said.

“I'm sorry, I should have introduced myself. I'm Grayson” he said.

“I'm y/n” I said.

“Its nice to meet you” he smiled.

“You too” I nodded.

I walked further up the trail and started going off course. He followed me into the woods, grabbing my arm leading me down the hill. Once we were at the bottom of the hill he let me go, I followed him down to the water. I placed my bag down by the tree, slipping my shoes off. Walking down to the shore allowing the water to flow against my feet.

“I should go” he said.

“Oh yeah sure,” I looked back towards him.

“But I don't want too” he said as he walked towards me.

“Something is pulling us together and I can't explain it” I said.

“I don't want to explain it, I just want to enjoy it” he said.

“Then enjoy it” I said as I leaned down and splashed him with water.

He was shocked at first but he smiled as he leaned down splashing water. I laughed as I ran from him, he ran after me grabbing my arm. Pulling me towards him I rested my hand against his chest as I looked up at him. He rested his hand against my cheek, brushing his thumb against my skin. I slightly pulled away but not from his touch, I bite my lip as I looked back at him. He pulled me closer to him gripping my hip as I gazed into his eyes. I leaned in towards him moving my body closer to his. He leaned in towards me brushing his lips against mine slightly. I leaned into him slowly kissing him as we were interrupted.

“This is a public place for kids” someone yelled.

“We aren't doing anything wrong” Gray said as he turned his attention to the guy.

“Sorry” I said as I rushed to get my bag and slip my shoes back on.

“Wait” Grayson said as he rushed after me.

I finally made it back onto the trail and Grayson was right behind me. He grabbed my arm pulling me towards him. I pulled away from him as I looked up at him.

“Please don't leave” he said.

“I should, maybe we can hang out again?” I asked.

“I would love that” he said as he handed me his phone.

I took his phone and put my number in his phone before making my way back to the park. I knew he was behind me because that was the only way off the trail. We parted ways and I made my way back to the apartment. I went upstairs and started the shower. I allowed the water to heat up before getting into the shower. By the time I got out of the shower, I had a text from Grayson. He wanted to meet up later tonight at some restaurant. He made sure to imply that I enter the restaurant through the back door. I placed my phone back on the sink as I wrapped a towel around me. Now I had to decide what to wear but not look like I'm trying too hard. I put a few curls in my hair, did a little bit of makeup. Once I was finished with my makeup I went into my closet. I picked out a pair of jeans that fit me perfectly, and a crop top. I slipped on a pair of shoes and made my way out of my apartment. Unfortunately, it wasn't within walking distance so I had to get into my car. I finally made my way to the address that he sent me, I made sure to park around back. I saw him standing in the doorway as I pulled up. He smiled as he saw me, making his way to my car. He opened my door and offered his hand. I grabbed his hand and got out of the car.

“You made it” he smiled.

“Of course” I nodded.

“you look beautiful” he gently kissed my cheek.

“Thank you” I smiled.

He grabbed my hand and lead me into the building. There were music blasting and people enjoying their evening. I smiled as I followed him. He pulled me to one of the back rooms so that we were alone. I sat down on the couch as he went to get us drinks. He returned handing me a drink before sitting next to me. We started talking and we both lost track of time, it was so easy to talk to him.

“Hey Gray?” someone said as they walked in.

“What bro?” Grayson said as he got up.

“Didn't know you had company, sorry” Ethan said.

“Its fine, honestly what time is it?” Gray asked.

“Its almost 3 am” Ethan said.

“Wait there's two of you?” I asked as I got up/

“Yeah there is, he's my twin brother” Grayson said.

“Wow that's so cool”  I smiled as I looked at Grayson.

“Come out of this room and party with us,” Ethan said as he playfully punched Grayson.

“You down?” Gray said as he looked at me.

“Sure” I nodded.

We went down to the club part, it was just a few people. I guess it was an invite-only club, I had no idea. I ordered another drink as I sat at the bar. I took a few sips from my drink before dragging Grayson to the dance floor. I placed my arms around his neck as I swayed to the beat. He placed his hand against my hip as he moved our bodies closer together. I turned around grinding against him, his hands still placed against my hips. He leaned in towards me, I could feel his breath against my neck. I turned to face him resting my forehead against his, placing my hand against his chest. He leaned down slightly his lips lightly touching mine. I leaned into him, kissing him softly. His grip against my hips tightens as the kiss started to get intense. I slightly pulled away allowing my lips to linger against his. I opened my eyes and looked up at him, he smiled slightly. He leaned down slightly placing his hand against my cheek. Brushing his thumb against my skin before kissing me softly. I kept the kiss between us until I heard someone yell Grayson. I smiled as I pulled away I made my way back to the bar. Grayson came behind me placing his arm around my shoulders. I looked at his watch and realize what time it was. I got up and grabbed his hand leading him out of the bar. We made our way to the beach right before the sun started to rise. He moved behind me and wrapped his arms around me, resting his head against my shoulder.

“Its beautiful” he whispered.

“Breath taking” I said as I leaned back against him.

“Only way to catch the sunrise is to stay up all night” he smiled.

“Totally worth it” I said as I turned to face him.

“Totally” he placed his hand under my chin.

He leaned in and kissed me softly, I smiled against his lips. He slightly pulled away when his phone started to ring. He sighed as he picked it up, moving away from me. I watched the sunrise as he finished up on the phone. He made his way over to me, grabbing my hand.

“Come on” he said as he pulled me towards him.

“Alright” I nodded as I followed him.

He lead me back to my car and opened my door for me.

“Thank you, when will I see you again?” I asked.

“Soon” he said as he cupped my cheeks kissing me softly.

“I'm going to hold you to that” I said as I pulled away from the kiss.

“Good” he smiled.

I got into my car and left the parking lot, that's when I saw a line of people ]around the building. I didn't think much of it and just made my way back home. I crashed the moment my head hit the pillow. I didn't wake up until I heard my phone going off and realize that it was nearly 2pm. I sat up in bed and reached for my phone, it was just Grayson texting me. He was asking if I wanted to come over to his place later. I sent a message back saying of course and got out of bed. I made my way downstairs and fixed me something to eat. I sat down at the table eating my sandwich, scrolling on social media. I wasn't big on social media nor dd I really pay attention to it. It was just something to kill the time. Once I finished eating I went upstairs and took a shower. I took my time getting ready, just dancing around my room with a towel wrapped around me. I finally got dressed and left my apartment, I stopped to get a few things before heading over to Grayson's place. I pulled up into the driveway and before I could get out of the car Grayson came out. He opened my door and offered his hand, I grabbed his hand and got out of the car.

“Hey” he smiled as he hugged me.

“Hey” I said.

“I'm glad you could come over” he said.

“I got a few movies and popcorn, I didn't know what we were going to do” I grabbed the bag out of my car.

“Sounds fun, we have some board games” he said.

We went inside and went down to the den. We first started off with a few movies and popcorn then we moved to play board games. Of course, I beat him at monopoly and he beat me in snacks and ladders. He got up from the floor and stretched before reaching for my hand. I grabbed his hand and got up off the floor. He leads me down to their game room.

“A pool table, never played” I said.

“I can show you” he smiled.

“You can?” I looked at him.

He racked the ball and handed me a stick, he showed me how to hold it. I bite my lip as he moved behind me, placing his hand against my hip. He guided my hand to shot the cue against the ball, I leaned back against him slightly. He smiled as he felt me press against him. I made the shot and the ball scattered, I got a few into the pockets. Little did he know I already knew how to play, I just wanted him close. I took a few more shots with his guidance before showing my true colors.

“Hey you're good at this” he raised his eyebrow.

“I know” I started to blush slightly.

“What happen to you not knowing how to play?” he asked.

“Just wanted you close” I admitted.

“You could have just asked” he said as he moved closer to me.

Placing his hand against my hips as he pulled me closer to him. I rested my hand against his chest as I looked up at him. He smiled he leaned down allowing his lips to touch mine slightly. I leaned up slightly kissing him softly, placing my hand against the back of his neck. He lifted me up placing me onto the pool table, moving between my legs. I wrapped my arms around his neck keeping the kiss between us. He slightly pulled away resting his forehead against mine, I smiled as I looked at him.

“What time is it” he asked.

“I have no clue” I said.

He pulled his phone out of his pocket, it was nearly 3 am.  “Well once again we've stayed up” he smiled.

“Oh well,” I bite my lip as I looked at him.

He grabbed my hand and lead me to his bedroom. He took his shirt off, I slipped my shoes off and sat on the bed. He laid back on the bed, I moved so I was next to him. Laying my head against his chest, tracing patterns against his stomach. He placed his arm around me, tracing his fingers against my arm. We both started to drift off to sleep and before we knew it we were both fast asleep. I was waken up by Grayson the next morning, he had breakfast. I sat up and stretched as he sat down on the bed. He handed me a drink and a bag of food, I took it from him seeing what he had gotten me.

“Thank you, what is this” I nodded towards the cup.

“Its orange juice, I didn't know if you were a coffee person or not” he said.

“I'm not and I love orange juice” I smiled.

“I'm glad I got it right, its a vegan breakfast sandwich” he said.

“I never hand one but would love to try it” I said as I took it out of the bag.

We just sat on his bed and ate our breakfast, for something I never had before I really liked the sandwich. He cleaned up after we finished eat and I finally got out of his bed. He came back in and pulled me close to him, brushing the hair from my face. I smiled as I looked up at him, he leaned down and kissed me softly.

“Hey Gray” Ethan said as he walked into the room. “Sorry,” he said as he saw us together.

“What E?” Grayson said as he pulled away from me.

“Just wondering what you were doing, but ill leave you two alone” Ethan said.

“Thanks” Grayson said as he turned back to face me.

“I need to go home, I got work to do” I said.

“See you soon?” he asked.

“Of course” I smiled as I slipped my shoes back on.

I grabbed my bag and made my way out of the house. He was following me opening my door as we got to my car. I turned to face him and kissed him softly. He smiled against my lips before pulling away, I got into my car. He shut my door as I started the car. I went back to my apartment and sat at the kitchen table with my laptop. It seemed like the moment I started to work the hours just flew by. I didn't realize what time it was until I heard my stomach growl. I decided to call Grayson to see if he wanted to go get something to eat.

“Hey” I said.

“Hey babe, what's up?” he asked.

“You want to go grab something to eat?” I asked.

“What where you thinking?” he said.

“Probably some restaurant downtown” I said.

“I cant babe, maybe another time” he said.

“Oh” I said as I was confused as to why he didn't want to come.

“Sorry, see you soon” he said.

“See you soon” I said as I hung up the phone.

Over the next few months, we would always hang together but never in public. It was always a dark club, at his place or even my place. I couldn't figure out why he never wanted to be in a public place. Well, that was until I did a google search on Grayson and that's when I found out who he was. That didn't explain why he didn't want to go out in public unless he didn't want to be seen with me. Was he ashamed of me? What was he doing with me? I had so many questions but no answers and I didn't know if I wanted to know the answers. I left my apartment and went over to his house, as always he was ready when I pulled up.

“Hey babe, get in” I said.

“I already made dinner, come in” he opened my door.

“Oh I thought we would go out” I said as I got out of the car.

“Maybe next time” he said.

I nodded as I walked behind him, hanging up my jacket by the door. I followed him to the backyard, he had fairy lights up and sat up a picnic.

“This is pretty” I said.

“I wanted to do something special” he said.

“Whats the occasion?” I asked.

“Because I just wanted too” he kissed my cheek before sitting down.

I sat down beside him as he pulled out the food. There was a lot of fruit, which we both loved and he made little sandwiches. We both sat and ate together as the sun started to set. As soon as we finished he got up and reached for my hand. I grabbed his hand and got up from the ground. He pulled me close to him placing my arms around his neck. Placing his hands against my hips, he nodded towards Ethan. Music started to play and I turned to look at Ethan before focusing back on Grayson. I moved closer to him and placed my head against his shoulder as we danced to the music.

“I wanted to say something” he whispered.

“I need to talk to you” I said.

“You can go first” he said.

“Are you ashamed of me?” I questioned.

“What? Where is that coming from?” he looked at me.

“I know who you are and you never want to be seen in public. Is it me?” I asked.

“Of course not. I just don't want you to deal with the backlash from the fans” he said.

“What?” I asked.

“They won't like that I have a girlfriend and they will attack you. I don't want that to happen, so I'm keeping you to myself” he said.

“Oh” I nodded as I looked at him.

“I'm not ashamed of you. I love you” he said, which was the first time he's said those words.

“You do?” I said.

“Yeah, that's what I wanted to say” he said.

“I love you too” I moved closer to him.

“you do” he smiled as he placed his hand against my chin.

“Yeah I do” I leaned up and kissed him softly.

“Please just know that I'm protecting you” he rested his forehead against mine.

“I trust you” I said.

“Good” he smiled, placing his hand against my neck before kissing my lips again.

We spent the rest of the night sitting in the yard watching the stars. After he explained why he didn't want to go in public I understood. He always made sure that I knew he wasn't ashamed of me. I enjoyed the time we spent more when it was just us. I hated the fact that he thought his fans wouldn't understand that he was happy but I trusted him. I normally never went on a walk in that park but I was glad I did that day months ago. It lead me to my knight in shining armor and I wasn't planning on letting go anytime soon.

Protective

Type: One Shot | Imagine about Grayson Dolan Rating: Rated PG-13 Word Count: 2,424 Enjoy!

I could never seem to catch a break. All throughout high school, I was always bullied. I didn't have many friends but I did cherish the friends that I did have. I guess it taught me how to be strong and never back down no matter what. I moved out of my parent's house when I was 17. I had a job ever since I was 16, I knew I could make it so why not try. I hit the gas pedal as I took off from the red light. The wind in my hair as the music was blasting, a Friday night to myself. I was heading to my friend's house just to have a chill night. We didn't have anything planned but it was nice to spend time with them. I knocked on the door waiting for them to answer was like waiting for paint to dry. Grayson finally opened the door, his smile grew as he saw me standing there.

“Y/N you made it,” Gray said.

“Yea I did,” I said as I walked into the apartment.

“Ethan made popcorn, we thought we would just watch movies,” he said.

“Sounds good” I nodded as I walked towards the movie theater.

“Hey Y/N” Ethan said as he hugged me.

“Hey E” I wrapped my arms around him as I hugged him back.

“Told you she would be here” Gray spoke as he enters the room.

“Yea so you can do nothing again,” Ethan said as he rolled his eyes.

“What does he mean?” I asked Grayson.

“Nothing” Gray looked down.

“We are friends here, you can tell me anything” I looked at Gray.

“Its nothing” Gray shot Ethan a look.

I shrugged it off because I knew Gray could never keep a secret. Well not from me anyway, I sat down next to him. Ethan turned on the movie before sitting down in his chair. I leaned back against the couch putting my feet up on the table. Gray rested his arm on the couch kinda draping it around my shoulders. I took a deep breath in as I could smell him, I wanted him but I didn't want to ruin the friendship. Plus it was hard to read Gray so I didn't know how he felt if he even felt that way. I started to lean against him, resting my head against his chest. I could hear his heartbeat as I rested my hand against his leg. He wrapped his arm around me pulling me closer to him. Ethan threw a blanket towards Gray, Gray placed it over us keeping me close. I ended up falling asleep against his chest, with his arm around me. I felt safe, I felt as if we were the only two people in the world. He picked me up taking me up to his room, laying me down in bed covering me up. He turned off the light and got into bed as well. I found his warm body cuddling up to him, resting my head against his chest again. Hearing his heartbeat put me back to sleep. In the morning I could feel him moving as he grabbed his phone, I didn't want to let go. Not just yet I just wanted to snuggle a little bit longer before reality kicked back in.

“Morning” he groaned as he felt me move.

“Morning” I whispered.

“Have a good sleep?” he asked.

“Yea, sorry,” I said as I sat up in bed.

“Don't be” he looked at me.

“I didn't mean to cuddle with you,” I said.

“I enjoyed last night” he smiled softly.

“You did?” I looked at him.

“Look I know we are friends but I really like you” he swallowed as those words left his lips.

“I like you Gray” I spoke softly.

“You do? You want more than friendship?” he questioned.

“Yea I do” I nodded.

He placed his hand against my jaw, brushing his thumb against my cheek. I looked into his eyes as I placed my hand against his chest. He leaned towards me placing his lips against mine softly. I closed my eyes leaning into the kiss, the moment was ours. As if the clocks stopped, the world stopped it was just us. He pulled away slightly resting his forehead against mine. I kept my hand resting against his chest as our eyes met once again.

“I've wanted to do that for a while” he whispered.

“Why did you wait?” I asked.

“I have no idea” he smiled slightly.

“FINALLY,” Ethan said as he leaned against the door frame.

“ETHAN!” both Grayson and myself yelled.

We could hear Ethan laughing as he walked away from the room. I looked back at Gray as he got out of the bed. Putting a shirt on before reaching for my hand. I smiled as I grabbed his hand getting out of bed. I followed him down to the kitchen, I sat down at the table. We all knew Gray wasn't the best cook but it was cute how he tried his best. I personally didn't have an issue with his cooking. It was always Ethan, extra Ethan never liked anything. That was because Ethan was picky and didn't want to give Gray credit.

“What are you making?” I asked.

“Waffles,” Gray said as he looked at me.

“That really sounds good” I smiled as I got up from the table.

“You always believe in me,” he said.

“That's because you are an amazing person” I placed my hand on the back of his neck as I moved in front of him.

“Thank you” he smiled as he watched me.

I stood on my tippy toes and kissed him softly. I guess he saw I was having trouble reaching him so he picked me up. Placing me on the counter moving between my legs, keeping the kiss between us. I rested my hand against his side as he grabbed my hips. I smiled against his lips before pulling away slightly.

“You should get back to your waffles,” I said.

“Yea I don't want to burn them,” he said as he walked away from me.

“True” I smiled as I got down from the counter.

He finally finished making the waffles and placed them on the table. I got the drinks before sitting down next to him. I placed some blueberries on my waffle before putting syrup on it. He smiled as he watched me, I finally caught that he was watching me. I couldn't help but smile, I started to eat as he did as well. We finally finished eating and he grabbed both plates and took them to the sink.

“What are you doing today?” he asked.

“I really don't have plans today” I nodded.

“So you are mine?” he said.

“Maybe, that's if you want me to stay here” I looked at him.

“Of course I do” he smiled as he walked towards me.

“Good, then ill stay,” I said.

He placed his hands on my hips pulling me to him. I wrapped my arms around his neck as I looked up at him. He smiled as he looked down at me. He leaned down slightly kissing me softly, I smiled against his lips. We finally decided to get out of the apartment. We went to the mall and went shopping, we saw a few fans but Gray tried not to get noticed.

“I just wanted today to be perfect,” he said.

“It is, its ok Gray” I held his hand.

“I'm sorry” He looked at me.

“Don't be sorry Gray, its ok honestly” I nodded.

“Ok thank you” he brushed his thumb against my hand.

We went into a few stores and got Gray a few new clothes. The fans finally saw us and decided to come up to us. It was fine at first but then it was getting too much. I could tell Gray was getting overwhelmed and his anxiety was getting worse. I grabbed Grays hand as we said goodbye. I pulled Gray away and we decided to leave the mall. We were walking to the car as I started to notice someone following us. I stayed close to Gray as we finally got to the car, the guy came up to us. He started to yell and accuse Gray of something stupid. I rolled my eyes and watched the guy but then I had enough of his bullshit. I stood up for Gray and went head to head with this guy. He finally left after I told him off and we got into the car. I could see that Gray was stressed and having a mini panic attack.

“Hey breath Gray,” I said as I grabbed his hand.

“I just can't catch a break” he breathed in.

“Just breath, don't worry about him,” I said.

“I don't even know that guy,” he said.

“He's just an asshole, nobody” I looked at Gray.

“Thank you” he looked at me.

“Just breath” I placed my hand against his cheek.

He finally calmed down and started the car. We finally made it back to their apartment and we took everything in the apartment. He sat down on the couch trying to relax, I sat on his lap leaning down kissing him. I felt him smile against my lips as he kissed me back. He placed his hand on my neck making the kiss more intense. I pulled on his bottom lip, running my hand down his chest. I started to play with his button on his pants as he ran his down my side. Gripping my ass pulling me closer to him, I smiled as I looked at him. He brushed the hair from my face, cupping my cheek in his hand. Kissing me softly as he moved his hips up moving me onto the couch. He laid me back on the couch as he moved between my legs. Moving his lips against my neck sucking gently, I placed my hand on the back of his neck. I let out a soft moan as I gently pulled against his hair. He slowly started to move down my body, sucking against my collarbone. I arched my back as I moaned, running my hand down his back.

“Let's go to my bedroom” he whispered.

“Sure” I smiled as I watched him.

He picked me up taking me upstairs, laying me on his bed. He moved over me again, moving between my legs. Placing his lips back on my neck, slowly moving down. Over the next hour or so we were tangled up with each other and it was the best night I've had. I fell asleep in his arms as he wrapped a blanket around us, falling asleep himself. In the morning I felt him get out of bed. I opened my eyes as I watched his naked ass disappear into the bathroom. I sat up smiling to myself keeping the covers over me. I finally got up out of the bed and got dressed as he came out of the bathroom.

“Did I wake you?” he questioned.

“No, you didn't” I walked towards him.

“Good, how did you sleep?” he asked as he wrapped his arm around me.

“I slept good, how about you?” I looked up at him.

“I slept like a baby” he smirked slightly.

“Oh, you did?” I leaned up kissing him softly.

“Yeah I did” he whispered against my lips.

“That's good” I ran my finger down his chest.

“Let's go get breakfast,” he said.

“Why don't we make breakfast?” I asked.

“That could be interesting” he chuckled slightly as he grabbed his boxers.

We went downstairs to the kitchen. I took out the flour and other ingredients so we could try to make pancakes. I started to mix the batter as he was behind me. He rested his head on my shoulder as he watched me. I smiled as I felt his arms tighten around me. He reached down getting some flour on his hand and smearing it on my face.

“GRAY!” I said.

“Oops,” he chuckled.

“Oh, so you want to play that game” I smirked as I grabbed flour putting it all over him.

We started throwing flour all over the place. The room was filled with our laughter as flour was going everywhere. I grabbed an egg and cracked it over his head. I think that's when things got more serious. He grabbed the batter and poured it all over me. I went to get water but slipped on the egg, landing on the floor. I couldn't stop laughing as I looked up at him. He reached down grabbing my hand but he slipped in the egg as well. He fell over top of me and we were both on the floor laughing.

“We have to clean this up,” he said.

“Yea we do, what a mess” I laughed.

“You go shower, ill clean this up,” he said.

“Alright,” I said as I managed to get off the floor.

I made my way upstairs and got into the shower. I tried my best not to get flour everywhere but that was impossible. I finally finished the shower wrapping a towel around me. Grayson came upstairs and went into the bathroom getting into the shower. I slipped his shirt on and my panties, plus a pair of his shorts. I didn't have clothes at his house but I enjoyed being in his. I sat on the bed waiting for him to get out of the shower. He made his way into the bedroom and got dressed. He grabbed my hand as we left the apartment, we went to get breakfast. We went to the warehouse afterward so they could film together. I stayed out of the way and watched them film, I couldn't help but fall in love with Gray. He was my best friend but now he was more than just a friend. I could admit that he was my first love and I wouldn't have it any other way.

Dolan Twins Preference #2: Scary Movie

Ethan: Our weeks are normally busy and didn’t have much time for each other. We also tried our best to at least get together every friday night. Ethan and I loved snuggling up together watching movies. I pulled up into his driveway, grabbing my bag as I got out of the car. I knocked on the door waiting for his response. “HOLD ON” he called out as he came downstairs. He opened the door and I could see his smile grow as he realized it was me. He grabbed my hand pulling me to him. I smiled as I wrapped my arms around him, he closed the door behind me. He tighten his grip as I wouldn’t let go, he kissed my cheek softly. “Ive missed you” he whisper. “I miss you baby” I pulled away slightly. I leaned up on my tippy toes kissing him softly, he smiled against my lips. “So?” I looked at him. “After you my lady” he said as he nodded towards the stairs. I started walking upstairs as he followed behind me, playing with my ass of course. “Ethan” I giggled as I made it to his room. “Cant help it if I cant keep my hands off of you” he smirked. “What movie?” I asked. “The descent, I thought we could switch it up” he handed me the movie. “So a scary movie” I looked at him. “Ill protect you” he smiled. “Sure we can watch it” I placed my bag down, slipping my shoes off. I sat on his bed as he put the movie in, he came back sitting on the bed. I leaned back against him as he wrapped the blanket around us pulling me closer. I laid my legs over his lap, his hand against my leg as the movie started. I placed my hand under his as we both watched the movie. He laced our fingers together, I could feel my heart rate starting to pick up. I jumped when someone pop up on the screen, hiding my face behind Ethan’s shoulder. “I got you” he rubbed his thumb over my hand. “Im ok” I tried to believe that. The movie wasnt even halfway done and I wanted to be done with it. I closed my eyes a few times but when I started to shake he turned the movie off. “Shhh” he wrapped his arms around me. “I don’t like scary movies” I admitted. “Now I know, it won’t happen again, ” he kissed my forehead. “I’m sorry, ” I looked at him. “Don’t be a baby, ” he tilted my chin up slightly. He leaned down to kiss me softly, keeping his grip on my hand. I finally calmed down as we spent the rest of the night playing stupid games. Before we knew it, it was late and we both were getting tired. I ended up falling asleep in his arms, my favorite place to sleep. I guess I didn’t shake the movie off as I started having a nightmare. My breathing picked up as it felt as if I was in the movie myself. He woke up shaking my arms gently trying to bring me out of it. “Babe” he said as he shook my shoulders. “STOP” I screamed. “Hey hey hey, wake up, ” he said. I finally woke up sitting up in the bed trying to catch my breath. “It’s ok” he rubbed my back. “It’s just a dream” I said. “Yes, it’s ok” he pulled me back to him. It took about an hour for me to fall asleep, but I finally did. I loved that Ethan would do anything to make sure that I was ok.

Grayson: I had finished all my work that I needed to get done. I called Grayson to see what he was doing, of course he wanted to do something with me. He came over to my apartment, I was waiting for him outside. He came right up to me picking me up spinning me around. Placing his lips against mine, I wrapped my arms around his neck. I smiled against his lips as he placed me back on the ground. “Someone is happy” I smiled. “Ill always be happy to see you” he said. “Gray” I started to blush. “Its true” he kissed my cheek. “What do you want to do tonight?” I asked as I kept my arms around his neck. “Movie? Dinner?” he looked at me. “Sounds like a date” I laughed slightly. “We are already together so its just a night out” he smiled. “True” I placed my hand on his chin. “What?” he said. “Nothing, lets go” I said. “Sure babe” he grabbed my hand as he lead me to his car. He opened the door for me, I got into the car placing my seat belt on as he shut the door. He made his way to the driver seat, starting the car allowing the a/c to cool us off. He placed his seat belt on as well and we were off going downtown. He grabbed my hand bringing it up to his lips kissing it softly. I intertwined our fingers together as he kept his eyes on the road. We just went to get pizza before going to the movie theater. He pulled into the parking lot, turning the car as he got out of the car. He came over to my side opening my door, offering his hand to me. I grabbed his hand as I got out of the car, we walked into the theater hand and hand. “Lets watch Annabelle” he said. “Sure Gray” I nodded. He bought our tickets as well as our popcorn before we went into the screening room. We found out seats as we sat down watching the preview. I started eating the popcorn as the movie started, we made it just in time for the movie. I wasn’t expecting the movie to be as scary as it is. I was jumping each time the doll would move, I hide my face in Grayson’s shoulder. He rubbed my leg trying to calm me down. “Its ok” he rubbed my knee. “I wasn’t expecting this” I looked at the screen. “Its just a movie” he said. I reached for some more popcorn as something moved in the movie. I jumped, throwing popcorn everywhere, Grayson couldn’t hold his laughter back. “SHHHH” someone said. “You want to go?” he asked. “It’s fine, ” I said. “Ok babe, let me know when you want to go, ” he kept his hand on my leg. I made it halfway through the movie before I had enough, I got up leaving the room. Grayson wasn’t too far behind me as he wrapped his arm around me, I jumped at his touch. “It’s just me, ” he said. “Sorry, ” I took a deep breath in. “Calm down babe, ” he grabbed my shoulders. “I wasn’t expecting that, ” I said. “I know buts its ok, I’m here, ” he kept me close to him. We made it back to the car, the ride home was silent. “Want me to come in with you?” he asked as he pulled up in front of my apartment. “Yes please” I nodded. We both went into my apartment, going upstairs to my room. I felt safer with him around as crazy as that sound, but it’s what I needed. Plus, I loved falling asleep with Grayson. He was my safe place and right now that’s what I needed.
