can you do a blurb where grayson realizes how in love he is with y/n!
Blurb Alert! - Grayson Dolan
; i forgot about this, oops. and it’s super short
Blink Love:
“Give me 10 more minutes and I’ll be ready!” Y/N shouted, though Grayson hardly stood 5 foot away, eyeing her through the mirror. Y/N was too busy applying a vibrant lipstick shade to her lips to notice Grayson leaned against the bathroom doorway, his arms crossed and a knowing smile tampering his own lips.
Both of them were dressed up for the evening, in attendance for a private dinner later in the night. Grayson wore a dress shirt and nice pants, while Y/N wore a simple, flowy pink dress that stopped right before her knees. It looked nice on her, Grayson would admit.
All sorts of things looked nice on her.
The two had known each other for almost two years, barely acquaintances in that time span. But things had changed, and they agreed to go on a first date, five months ago. Now, Grayson couldn’t look at life the same.
Grayson’s the kind of man that falls in love, hard and fast. He can’t suppress the inexplicable feelings that come over him, and his emotions reach too far ahead and boom; he’s head over heels for a girl he truly doesn’t know. Ultimately, it ends in a sorrowful Grayson whose hopes and dreams of a family are pushed over to the side once again.
But Y/N was different from the rest, he just knew it.
Grayson had promised himself to guard his feelings, at least until he really knew that she wasn’t going to take another piece of his heart away. He set his own rules, restraining his affections and protecting himself at all costs. But there was no protecting needed, because she filled all the blank spaces.
Her laugh, her smile, her beautiful eyes, the rose tint on her cheeks, the talking for hours, dancing in the kitchen, blasting music in the car, arguing on who walks the dog, anything and everything, she made it seem better than ever before.
So as she leant towards the mirror, putting a pair of delicate earrings in, he blurted his thoughts;
“I love you.”
And she stopped, shifting her eyes to the vulnerable man’s gaze. She took a moment, searching his eyes, his lips, his nose even. Until she turned to truly face him, and she smiled a similar one to his.
grayson cuddled/slept in the same bed with y/n ONCE and now he can’t sleep without her
Blurb Alert! - Grayson Dolan
; i want a big bear grayson to cuddle with at night !
Sleep’s Needs :
It took one time.
He awoke one bright morning, his leg protectively thrown over Y/N’s thighs and her head nestled against his bare chest. Her fragrance smothered him like a heavenly fog, and he couldn’t get enough of it.
It was an accident, that they had fallen asleep. The night before, Grayson tempted Y/N to a movie, and gave her no choice but to cuddle up next to his warmth under the fluffy duvet of his bed.
After plenty of snacks and at least three random movies, the couple had fallen asleep to the sound of each other’s voices. There’s always something about talking in the earliest hours of the morning, the depth of the conversation seemed more crucial than any other regular gossip during the daytime.
Grayson’s heart felt full and plump, unlike any other morning. He didn’t have to long for Y/N, or anticipate seeing her the rest of the day— she was there, in his arms unintentionally. And he never wanted to leave her embrace again.
He laid there, unmoving until her own eyes had fluttered open and she was met with his divine features. They didn’t say a word, just a knowing smile shared between each other and Grayson squeezed her closer to him.
The next night, Grayson felt so cold and alone, he tossed and turned the entire night, scrounging a couple hours out of the morning to label sleep.
But it didn’t feel right, not at all.
He wanted her skin on his, their legs entangled, his hands free to roam her back with the silly little patterns he’d make, and her kissable forehead beneath his chin.
Grayson’s a needy man, and never one to be shunned of his demands.
He called her every night for two weeks straight, asking her to accompany him to his slumber, and she had caved each night. Two weeks turned into four, then it became months of rarely sleeping apart, and Grayson couldn’t be happier.
“can i hold your hand?” and “ we're not just friends. you know that.” with gray pls!! thank uu
romantic prompts; grayson
You thought being friends with benefits was going to be a good thing. Both you and Grayson were single, and both had needs, so what could go wrong? Everything was going fine till a couple of months ago. You and Grayson have been friends for years and really clicked with each other. He'd become the person that you sought out the most and really held dear to your heart. Everyone else in your friend group was amazing, but they didn't mean to you as much as Grayson did.
But you're not supposed to catch feelings for the person you have an arrangement with. It's rule number one.
But you were never one to truly follow the rules.
Everyone was over at the boy's house for a little barbeque and later bonfire. Some of you were heading back out for school so Ethan and Grayson thought it would be a good idea to have a little get-together. You were sitting with Adele and Mando in the backyard having a little catch-up when your eyes landed on them.
Past Adele's shoulder, you saw right into the kitchen. You three were on the back porch with a clear view into the house through the sliding doors. Grayson stood inside with Ethan, Kristina, and a few other friends. But the one that caught your attention was Serena. She was pressed against Grayson's side, both laughing at something, in their own private moment. His arm wrapped around her waist as she leaned into him more.
You quickly looked away before you could see more. You took a long drink from your cup and felt the alcohol warm your body.
Once the dinner was finished and you ate, everyone sat at the fire pit together, Grayson coming to sit beside you and Serena on his other side.
You kept to yourself and mostly listened as everyone talked when soon, you felt Grayson reach out for you. Your eyes snapped up towards him in slight shock.
"What are you trying to do?" You spoke softly, not to speak loud enough to disturb Ethan's story.
“Can I hold your hand?” Grayson spoke, his eyes looking down towards you with a small smile on his lips, one of his dimples showing.
Your eyes darted to Serena, before moving back to him, "Why?"
"Because I wanna hold your hand." His brows pulled together, "You're being distant...is everything ok?"
"It's fine," Your tone short, "Don't you wanna hold hands with Serena? I'm sure you don't wanna hold hands with your friend."
Grayson's smile spread more when he caught a sense of your jealousy. He moved towards you and wrapped his arm around your shoulder and pulled you close to his side. He kissed your cheek before moving to whisper in your ear.
"We're not just friends. You know that." Grayson whispered, "But I like that you're getting jealous, that's cute..."
Your stomach fluttered, "Don't say that...not if you don't mean it."
Grayson's face pulled back so his nose brushed against yours, a look of seriousness on his face. "I am more than serious."
Grayson bent down and kissed your lips softly, not caring who was watching. All he cared about was making sure you understood, that he was yours. And you were his.
Grayson and the reader break up because of their jobs and their familys are best friends so they grew up together but it's weird to see eachother after everything but end up together? Thanks love💗
The breakup has been hard for you. You didn’t want it, but when he explained why, you understood. The distance was too much. It was too hard. You couldn’t move out to LA due to your job in Jersey, the job you’d worked so hard to get. And even though Grayson could try and visit as often as he could, the growth of WakeHeart and the podcast were making the visits farther and farther apart.
You two cried on the phone together knowing the moment it was over that you two would no longer be a couple. Grayson had never felt so much pain. He was sure that you were the love of his like, and ultimately the one for him, but he was holding you back. He knew it. Grayson couldn't ask you to leave the job he knew you loved for him. So he let you go.
But what made it even harder was the fact that both your moms were best friends, resulting in both your families being extremely close. Lisa was over at your family home nearly once a week, or vice versa. Whenever you hear that the twins were in town you made sure to avoid any place you thought you would see either Grayson or Ethan.
“Baby you can’t avoid him forever,” Your mother spoke as she finished cooking up dinner, a dinner that the Dolan family would be joining. Including Grayson and Ethan. You felt the repaired cracks of your broken heart start to crack again at the mention of his name.
It was a dinner to celebrate your finish of school, not just the Dolan’s were coming but other friends and family as well.
“And I can’t see him...not now...” You frowned
But before your mother could say more, the sound of the doorbell sounded through the house. Your heart jumped and your eyes darted towards the hall that led towards the front door. You felt your chest tighten as you watched your mother walk towards the door to answer it, knowing the man you loved was going to be standing before you in seconds. The house filled with guests and soon you were lost in a flood of people that you hadn’t run into Grayson.
That was until you stepped out onto the back porch to catch a breath, and you heard the sliding door open behind you. When you looked behind you, everything around you felt like it froze for a moment. Grayson stood hesitantly in the doorway as he closed the door behind him slowly.
“Hey,” He spoke softly
“Hi,” You nervously spoke, you could feel your heart beating wildly.
“H-How are you?” Grayson asked, fitting back the urge to reach across and take you into his arms. His body still called out to you even after all this time. “Congrats on finishing school,”
“Thanks,” You smiled slightly “A-And....I’ve been,” You hesitated for a moment, do you tell the truth? Let him know you’d been terrible and missing him? That your heart was still aching for him? “Fine.”
Grayson’s face twisted slightly, before licking his lips and slowly nodding his head.
“How are you? H-Haven’t seen you in forever,” You nervously chuckled.
You and Grayson had grown up together, all the way from being little babies to now entering adulthood. You knew everything about each other and were connected in every way. He was your best friend first and foremost, but at this moment, he was like a stranger to you. You didn’t know what to say to him.
Grayson let out a dry chuckle before reaching up to rub along his jaw slowly “Honestly, angel, not so good.”
Angel, the nickname he’d given you when you were kids. You used to wear white fairy wings all the time when you played. You were only four and Grayson was five at the time, and he called you angel because of those wings. The nickname stuck. You hadn’t heard it in so long it brought tears to your eyes to hear him call you that name again.
You walked closer to him and all the awkward and nervous was forgot and all you cared about was him. Comforting him and making sure he was alright. Grayson reached out and grasped your hands and pulled you closer to him.
“I messed up,” He whispered, your hand caressing along his arm. He looked towards you and you could see the heavy sadness in his eyes. “I should've never said we should break up. I never should’ve.”
“Grayson,” You whispered softly and felt your heart sink into your gut.
“Did you really want it?”
“No,” You spoke with no hesitation in your voice.
You could physically see the relief sag off his shoulders when you answered, the grip Grayson held on your waist grew tighter. “Did I lose my chance? Did I lose you?”
You shook your head and caressed his face, “No. Never. I love you so much, Grayson. That was never going to change.”
“I love you too,” He pressed his forehead against yours, before sighing heavily “I wanna do this again, give us a real try. I was scared, but I know in my heart we can do this.”
“How do I know you won’t get scared again?” You whispered
“I’ll show you, prove to you that I am more serious this time. I’m not giving up on us that easily”
You nodded your head, “Ok.”
A smile spread across Grayson’s face which only made it contagious for you and caused you to smile. He bent his head slightly before capturing your lips in a deep kiss. Your arms wrapped around his shoulders and gripped him tightly as the kiss deepened more. You had the love of your life back in your arms, and this time, you were never letting go.
pairing: best friend!reader x grayson dolan (sleepover pt.2 kinda)
warnings: bad writing (it’s not good, at all), some angst, a weird plot (idk what happened), fluff, cuteness, swearing, kissing when i know nothing about it 😂 kind of sleepover part 2, but it can be independent of it. i think that’s it
word count: 1.2k
Have you ever been so completely and utterly in love with someone and you just don’t know how to tell them? Well that’s how Grayson feels at this exact moment as he lets his best friend, Y/N, hold him.
“Grayson?” Y/N questioned.
“Yeah? What’d ya need bub?”
“Need you to move. My arm’s falling asleep” She stated, while wiggling her arm around to try and maintain the feeling in it.
“What if I don’t move, huh?” Grayson asked, tickling her side with one of his hands, that had her trying to jerk away from him while she laughed. Grayson maneuvered them around so he was holding his weight on top of her, keeping her pinned, while he continued to tickle her.
“Grayson… please.” She pleaded with him. It came out breathy with a lot of laughter in between.
“Tell me you love me and I’ll stop.” Grayson told her, still tickling her. He knew it was wrong to get her to say she loved him like this, when he knew she wouldn’t mean it like he meant it.
“Fine, I love you, Grayson. So damn much.” She said, which prompted him to stop tickling her and lock eyes with her.
Y/N didn’t break eye contact, at all. Her brain felt cloudy as she watched Grayson lean down towards her and press a tentative kiss on her lips. The second he pulled away, she was pulling him back. One of her hands moved the back of his neck, the other grazing the lion tattoo on his back. His hands were moving to her hips, gripping them in a way that she absolutely loved.
They were completely and utterly making out. Neither of them knew how much time had passed, but they both knew they didn’t want to stop. His heart was pounding in his chest and he was sure she could feel it, but he didn’t care. He had wanted this for years.
Y/N was sure that if she was standing up right now, her legs wouldn’t hold her up.
Then, out of nowhere, she got hit with the realization that she was kissing her best friend, the only guy she swore she’d never get involved with. So, she was quick to move her hands from his back to his chest pushing hard.
Grayson was confused as she pushed him away. His eyes started watering as she got up while murmuring, “I gotta get out of her.” To herself more than anyone else. Grabbing the bag she had brought with her, she practically ran out the door, ignoring all of Grayson’s questions.
Grayson didn’t know what he did wrong, but he was trying to think through every possible thing he could have done wrong. Y/N, on the other hand, knew exactly why she was freaking out.
Her first reason is that Grayson is her best friend. Everyone knows that you should never be with your best friend.
Her second reason was that Grayson liked to sleep around. Y/N knew what she wanted and knew what she was looking for in her future partner. Grayson exuded the complete opposite of everything she wanted.
She loved him, though. She loved him with everything she had. Which is why when she realized what exactly she was doing with Grayson, she had to leave. She didn’t want to be another girl that got her heart broken by Grayson.
She was his best friend, she knew what happened with his hook-ups. They always wanted more than he wanted to give. She couldn’t just be another hook-up and tossed to the side. She wanted a real relationship. Something, she had a feeling, Grayson couldn’t give her. Halfway through her drive home, Y/N pulled into Taco Bell’s parking lot and just cried.
Grayson, on the other hand, was pissed at himself. He kept wondering why he had to mess up the only thing that had been going right for him.
After about an hour of fighting with himself and little chat from Ethan, Grayson found himself in his car, driving towards Y/N’s apartment. The whole way there he blasted a playlist he’d found on Youtube called “A playlist for hopeless romantics,” which he thought was very fitting.
When he pulled into the parking lot, he parked his car right beside her’s, before he was running into her apartment building. He’d decided on his drive that the elevator would take too long, so he took two flights of stairs up to her apartment.
Y/N heard the familiar knock on her door, that had her pausing the show she was watching and acting as though she wasn’t home. Grayson, however, wasn’t an idiot. “I saw your car in the parking lot, I know you’re home.”
She decided that she’d be an adult about the whole thing and tell Grayson the truth. She’d tell him that, as much as she wanted to be with him, she didn’t want to get her heartbroken.
When she’d finally gotten to the door, she took a breath and opened it. “Y/N, I have to tell you something.”
“So do I, Grayson. You go first though.”
“Ok, so like I had a lot of time to think about this on the drive over, but I just wanna know why you left?” Grayson asked, his voice as soft as ever.
“Grayson, I love you, I really do. But I can’t be another girl that you just hook-up with. I want a family, a house.” He could practically hear the pain in her voice, but what he really wanted to know was why she thought she couldn’t have those things with him. He completely overlooked the fact that she just told him she loved him and meant it, the way he had meant it for years.
“You know I want those things, too.” That’s when it hit him, that she had said she loved him. He also realized that she had alluded to being with him.
“Wait wait wait, you’ve thought about being with me?” Grayson questioned, looking directly at her as she kept her gaze on the floor.
It took Grayson exactly two steps to being right in front of her. The second he was in front of her, he was grabbing her chin, making her look at him. “Do you love me like I love you, Y/N.”
She didn’t want to admit it now, but she knew she’d have to. “Yes, I do.” A grin broke out on Grayson’s face and then he heard, “But, I can’t be with you.”
His smiles turned into a frown so fast. “Why not? Tell me why we wouldn’t be perfect for each other?”
“Grayson, I want a real relationship. I want a house, I want kids, I wanna be coupled up and shit. Right now, it just seems like you don’t want that.”
“Y/N, I’d give anything to be with you.” Grayson’s eyes watered as he watched a few tears fall on her cheeks.
“Do you mean it? You won’t break my heart?” She questioned.
“As long as you don’t break mine.” Grayson answered, grabbing her cheeks and kissing her, hard.
A/N: idk what happened with monstrosity, but i finished, so might as well post. sorry if this sucks 😭 the end kinda gives me tatbilb vibes, yeah. i’m gonna go watch criminal minds and probably nap. this is so bad, i really do hate it. i feel like i’m missing so much that should be in it, but it’s not. anyway, criticism is always good. yeah, k bye 👋🏾 
can u do a concept where grayson has eyes for you and brushes off every girl that tries to get with him
college!au
(this gif always makes me think of frat!Grayson)
There was a thing about your friendship with Grayson that the two of you have been dancing around for a couple of years now. The fact that it was obvious to everyone around you that you were in love. But to you two. It was the soft touches, late-night conversations, deep intimate moments where the two of you opened up to one another. Grayson quickly became the person that whenever something good or bad happened - he was the one you wanted to talk to.
In the past whenever Grayson got a girlfriend, the two of you were still friends, but there was a slight restriction to how you acted around one another. He didn't even realize that he was doing it, having a slight distance with you, but you respected it. You never wanted to be perceived as crossing a boundary when he had a new girlfriend. Even if it hurt to not have him as close as you were used to.
It was even worse when he wasn't in a relationship but in what you liked to call "fuckboi mode". It was when he would be hooking with his usuals and you wouldn't see him at all.
"You're really my girl, Y/N, you know that." Grayson would always tell you whenever it was the two of you hanging out. You tried not to put a deeper meaning behind those words. But any time you heard him call you "my girl", you couldn't stop the butterflies that erupted within your stomach.
But in the past few months, there was been a shift. You'd noticed it more and more whenever you went to the same parties as him. Any time a girl would try and flirt with him, for once, he didn't pay them any attention. Or when you came into a party and he was talking with another girl, but you walked into the party, he'd come right to you. The biggest smile on his face, his larger frame moved through the crowd.
"Finally you're here!" Grayson smiled, wrapping his arms around you and pulling you into a hug. "Now we really can have some fun."
You looked up towards him, your eyes darting back to where he was standing the girl was seemingly waiting for him, before looking back at you. "You can go back and talk to your friend,"
Grayson followed your eyes to where Jessica was standing, before looking back to you. He shook his head and wrapped his arm around your shoulder. "Nah, I'm good with hanging out with you."
You couldn't stop the smile that came over your face as he moved through the crowd with you pressed against his side. You decided not to try and stop the butterflies.
A few weeks later, you came back to the frat house after a party, your usual tradition of getting breakfast the next day. You walked through the house and headed towards the kitchen. You followed the noise of the voices coming from the back of the house where you found Ethan and a few of the others.
The moment Ethan saw you, he smiled and called out your name loudly.
"Breakfast?"He asked walking towards you more, pulling you into a hug before standing back.
"Yeah. I'm guessing he's upstairs with...company?" You asked, nervously fidgeting with your fingers.
Ethan pursed his lips and shook his head, "No company. His drunk ass stumbled upstairs alone."
"Oh," You tried to hide the shock but failed. Ethan was able to see it.
"Actually...he hasn't come home with anyone in like...months," Ethan spoke matter-of-factly. "Only hanging out with you."
That was something that brought a smile to your face. "Good to know."
You walked up the stairs towards Grayson's room and knocked twice before walking in. You felt your breath catch for a moment as your eyes fell upon a shirtless Grayson with his sweatpants hung low at his hips. Your throat suddenly felt dry as your eyes scanned over his body slowly. An action that wasn't missed by Grayson. He grabbed a shirt from his drawer before putting it on and closing it back up.
He cleared his throat to bring you back.
"Oh, um, you ready for breakfast?" You asked, your voice soft as you tried to keep your eyes on his face.
"Yeah," He grabbed his baseball cap and put it on, backward, before grabbing his keys. "And it's my treat this time, don't you dare try and pay."
The two of you left and headed out to his truck, the two of you slipping into your normal comfortable conversation like always. You didn't miss it when Grayson reached over and threaded his fingers with yours as he drove. Your hand had been resting on the center console as you angled towards him more in your seat. The way his hand felt with yours was enough to make your heart skip a beat.
"So uh...Ethan let it slip this morning you haven't been seeing anyone in a while." You spoke, feeling the heat rising to your cheeks as you spoke. "I thought you were seeing that one girl?"
"Who?" Grayson's brows pulled together.
"Melanie? Or something." You shrugged
"Oh, no. We had a project together for English, so some nights I had to go over and work on it." Grayson spoke, "But we're not dating or anything else."
"Oh," You spoke softly. "Got your eyes on someone else?"
Your eyes looked up towards him, Grayson pulling up to a stoplight to look towards you. His lip turned up slightly, one of his dimples showing, as he smiled.
"Yeah, I've got my eye on this one girl," Grayson spoke, his eyes never leaving yours as he spoke. And Grayson swallowed down the next work he wanted to say.
Hi there! Quick question are you still writing the sequel for letting you go??? Just wondering ya know. We love a good crying moment heck yah heheh. Love your work big fan big fan ♥️
Hi! The rest of my inbox was filled with this same question so I’ll use this one to answer it.
I’ve thought about this a lot, especially since I read “This is me letting you go” this past week as well as “This is me starting over”. Y/N’s voice came back to me and it has made me want to finish her story. Also, while reading the series, I finally found who Amber’s muse would be. Now, I still support and care about the twins but the interest in them is not as strong as it used to be, which is also one of the reasons why I didn’t continue the series.
So much time has passed, I don’t even know if the readers are still around and would like to read more of the sequel. Is this something you would be interested in? If so, I’m pretty sure I’ll start writing it again now that I have time. Would you also still want it to be a Grayson Dolan story, or would you like me to make changes to the love interest in the story?
If you don’t know which stories I was speaking about, I’ll link my master list down below. You’ll be able to find both “This is me letting you go” & “This is me starting over” there. Your feedback would mean the world to me. Hope you’ve all been okay, I truly missed you ♥️
Grayson:
Imagines:
“I’ve been hurt before, but not like this. Never like this.”
“You have no right to come here to try and reclai

warnings- cheating, angst
Summary- Grayson realizes how badly he had fucked up, and he is losing hope of getting Julia back. In desperation, Ethan tricks Julia into meeting with Grayson. Meanwhile, he discovers some new information.
Grayson was quite literally panicking.
Within 24 hours, he had managed to nearly break Julia's phone with text messages, asking her to take him back, then after sending those he had made out with the neighbor whom had started the entire mess in the first place.
Grayson and Emma were only kissing for a few minutes when he came to his senses and realized what the hell he was doing. He pushed her off, yelling at her to get out of his house before he collapsed on the floor, crying, nearly blacking out.
Grayson tried not to blame himself and rather the three or four shots of vodka he had bravely taken for the first time. However, he knew the alcohol was no excuse for his actions. He was, without a doubt, absolutely fucked now.
He had gotten himself up from the floor in the living room into his bed, and was choking on his sobs. He was so numb and disappointed in himself.
Ethan arrived home and found Grayson in his bedsheets, completely enveloped by the cotton.
"Gray?" He asked, pulling the sheets back, gasping at his wrecked appearance. "What the fuck happened?"
"I kissed her," he said quietly.
"What? Kissed who?"
"Emma," he muttered, shutting his eyes in shame. Ethan sighed, grabbing at the bangs hanging down over his eyes.
Kristina had followed Ethan and was standing behind him. She too was stunned by the information, her heart wrenching for her almost brother-in-law, knowing how much he was beating himself up over this. She was confused on whether or not to feel bad for him, or let him take the blame because it was his fault he kissed her.
"Gray," Ethan exhaled, letting his hands drop by his thighs.
"FUCK!" Grayson suddenly screamed, shooting up in his bed. He grabbed the clarity candle next to him, chucking it at the wall, making Kristina jump. Ethan grabbed her for protection, pulling her behind him.
"Dude, chill," He said, trying to grasp onto Grayson's arm, but he was lashing out of his grip. He broke down.
"I fuck everything up," he repeated, rocking over and over again. Ethan turned to Kristina, gesturing her to exit the room. She left, slightly scared at Grayson's irrational actions.
Ethan sat down, patting him on the back before pulling him into a bone-crushing hug.
"I was drinking," Grayson confessed. "She came in, and I was like- hallucinating or some shit. I thought it was Julia, but when I realized it- it was Emma, I- I kicked her out," he explained, tripping over his words. Ethan frowned even more.
"C'mon man," he spoke carefully. "Why were you drinking? Where'd you even get alcohol, cause none of us drink that shit,"
"We had some left after our birthday, when we bought that bottle for everyone else," he said, slightly calming down. He wasn't crying as much now, more so sniffling every few seconds.
Ethan licked his lips.
"Ok, here's what's gonna happen," he said, getting up. "You are going to see her, and you are going to explain yourself."
"Dude, just let her be. She doesn't want to see me, trust me," Grayson exasperated. He appreciated Ethan's efforts, but she wasn't going to come.
Ethan didn't speak another word, exiting the room, grabbing his phone from the couch. He texted Julia.
Please meet me at Mel's diner, I need to show u something
-
Grayson and Ethan walked up to the door of the diner, pulling it open. Ethan roughly gripped his forearm, yanking him in the opposite direction of the hostess.
He led him to a small booth in the corner, where a familiar girl sat, twirling a straw in her milkshake. Julia.
Grayson tried to resist, put Ethan roughly sat him down across from her. Julia also tried to object, but Ethan left without another word, quickly driving off in his Tesla.
Grayson and her sat in silence for a good five minutes before Grayson finally spat out a sentence.
"I'm sorry," he said. "I'm so fucking sorry, I kissed her,"
Julia did a double take. This was the first Grayson would admit to actually cheating, considering Julia had never actually broken up with him- yet.
"W-what?"
"She came in earlier, and I was drunk, and she kissed me, and I kissed her."
Julia shut her mouth. She looked down at her strawberry milkshake, suddenly disinterested in the sweet taste.
Grayson sat still, waiting out her reaction.
"I- I was so fucked up, I thought she was you, I-"
Julia sat up, dumping her milkshake all over him, turning everyone's attention to the couple.
"I fucking hate you, Grayson Dolan."
-
Ethan invited Mari over, claiming that they were having people over and that she was invited. That was a lie.
Ethan was up to his tricks, first he had tricked Grayson into meeting Julia, and now he was going to trick Mari into confessing.
Him and Kristina did some thinking and discovered just how suspicious she was.
When she came over, she didn't say hi to anyone but Julia and Mando, and practically couldn't even look at Grayson without looking away quickly.
When Mari came over, she saw no one in the driveway, and almost drove off before Ethan abruptly stopped her. She sat there, knowing she was caught.
Ethan waved her in, and she shamefully followed him to their kitchen.
"Have something you want to tell us?" He asked, sending her a glare that would scare anyone away.
"N-nope," she stuttered, trying to keep her cool.
"Give me your phone," he demanded. She looked up surprisingly, shaking her head rapidly.
"Give me your fucking phone," he repeated, slamming his hand down on the table.
She grabbed it out of her back pocket, handing it to him with shaking hands.
He ripped it from her, showing the screen to her face to unlock it. Immediately, he went to the messages, sure enough finding Grayson's number along with the fake texts. He took his phone out, taking a picture of the screen before handing the phone back to her, dangerously calmly.
"You're a horrible friend, a traitor, and you bet your ass our lawyer will be in contact with you. Now get the fuck out of my house," he said sternly, pursing his lips.
a/n- hi guys ! im gonna get back to posting some more blurbs soon <3 happy fathers day! my heart goes out to anyone who is grieving today (including the twins) and whoever doesn't have a dad or has a bad relationship with them. i love you guys! im always here if u need to talk:)
Warnings- this chapter is gonna be hella frustrating, sorry i had to do it to em
Summary- Grayson and Ethan think they have figured out who hacked his phone, but the real people behind it are right under their nose. In the process, they also lose someone close to them again..
"Look, Mando, we know it was you. Just confess already," Grayson pressed. "You aren't getting yourself anywhere by denying it,"
Mando's mouth was hung wide open. When he found out someone hacked Grayson's phone, he was just as surprised as they were. He was even more surprised to find out he apparently was the one who set it up.
"Grayson, I wouldn't do that to you, bro. C'mon man, you know me," Mando pleaded. Grayson just glared at him.
"Get the fuck out," he spat. Mando blanked, taking a second before getting up and leaving. Grayson held back tears as he felt yet another friend betrayed his trust.
"You did the right thing, Gray," Ethan comforted, patting his back before walking off.
The night before, when Ethan figured out the messages were all sent at the same time, him, Grayson, and Kristina sat for at least an hour trying to figure out which of the group did it. They quickly cancelled each other out, leaving only Mando and Mari.
After some 'investigating' they determined that Mari would never do that to Julia, therefore, it must've been Mando.
Mando was devastated that the twins would think he would be capable of doing that. He went to Mari for comfort, and she ate it all up. Mando did accuse her of being the perpetrator, and Mari acted so offended he dropped it.
Why would I do that? To Julia? She's my best friend. Mari quoted.
Mando wasn't stupid, he knew it was Mari. However, he couldn't go back to Ethan and Grayson and tell them the truth. They wanted nothing to do with him. Mando stopped hanging out with Mari after that, and the only ties she had with the twins after that was through Julia- and Emma.
Emma approached Mari one night after she saw her hanging out with Julia. Emma walked up to her in the driveway when she was on her way to leave.
She offered her a deal- she told Mari she'd give her over $500 to break up Julia and Grayson. It was insane, and totally out of the blue. Mari was going to decline, but then she thought about all the tuition and rent she had to pay, and she gave in.
Emma didn't give her any information as to why she needed them to be broken up, but Mari knew it was just so she could come in and snatch Grayson.
Julia had told Mari at one point that Grayson had been walked all over in his past relationships, and he often confided in women and hookups to deal with his grief. Mari knew that as soon as Emma stepped in and pretended to be there for him, he'd be putty in her hands.
Meanwhile at Julia's house, someone knocked on her door. She opened it, not expecting it to be Mando.
"I know who did it," he explained, walking right into her kitchen despite her not quite inviting him in.
"It was Mari. It was Mari all a-fucking-long," he exasperated. "She got close to me just so she could fuck up you and Grayson," he groaned, tugging at his bangs.
Julia frowned. She appreciated Mando's attempts at trying to say Grayson didn't cheat, but she gave up on finding any other explanations. She accepted what she thought was the truth.
"Mando, I appreciate you coming in to check in on me, but Grayson cheated. There's no excuse for what he did. Mari wouldn't do that to me, we've been friends for forever," Julia sighed.
"Julia, I'm telling you-"
"Mando, please leave," Julia whispered.
Mando left, leaving Julia alone.
At the Dolans, Emma was waltzing up the driveway, prepared to get the boy she's been after for- two weeks?
She knocked the door three times, quickly fixing together her appearance, making sure her hair was laid perfectly and her makeup wasn't smudged.
Grayson opened the door, looking absolutely wrecked. He hadn't slept in days, his eyes were bloodshot, and he had tears stained all over his cheeks. Emma frowned, feeling sorry for him then remembering what she was there for.
"Hey, I heard what happened. I just wanted to-" she began.
"Emma, please leave. I don't want to know what tricks you have up your sleeve to break me and Julia up, but please leave us and me alone." He cut her off.
Emma breathed in sharply. "I had nothing to do with this, Grayson," she said sternly. "I'm here to apologize. I took things too far with you and me. I should've backed off, and I didn't. I'm sorry. But whatever happened with those text messages was not ran by me or planned by me in anyway. I was just as shocked as you were when I found out about them," she explained, lying through her teeth.
Grayson stood there, unsure of what to believe.
"Grayson, I'm serious. I had nothing to do with this," she pleaded, fluttering her long eyelashes. Grayson stood there, contemplating what to do. He really didn't want to believe her, but she seemed to be telling the truth in his eyes. He was also incredibly lonely now, and needed someone to comfort him. Therefore, he opened the door for her, inviting her in yet again.
They sat on the couch, knee to knee. Emma leaned her elbow on the back, gazing back up at him.
"You'll get over her, Gray. If she isn't willing to trust you when you are innocent, then she's not the one," Emma said, stroking his upper back. Grayson winced at the touch before calming down and closing is eyes at the warm gesture.
"You just need a distraction," she leaned in, whispering in his ear. She pulled him in by the chin, and planted a kiss right on his lips.
summary: Alex always thought by her mid/late twenties she would be married and probably have one kid. But sadly that seems to not be the way her life is going, especially with the way her dating life is going. With starting a new life in New Jersey, she hopes that this will be the new start she needs. But there is just one thing she wants to take care of before her twenty-seventh birthday. Lose her virginity

New Jersey/College AU | Older/Virgin Older OFC (Alexandrina) + Grayson
You look up to realize your head fell onto Grayson’s shoulder and he must’ve fallen asleep too because his head was rested on yours. When you move away, Grayson sits up straighter and you awkwardly look at each other, seeing as the two of you haven’t talked since the gas station.
“Go ahead,” Grayson finally says, grabbing your things and pushing out of the cramped backseat, your feet crunching under the frozen ground.
You take a deep breath of the crisp air and close your eyes. Listening to the sound of nature for a moment, letting it ground you.
“Alright Ms. Yogi let’s go,” Ryan pats your shoulder and you open my eyes, rolling them at him and walking over to the trunk.
Grayson pulls your bag out wordlessly, dropping it next to his on the ground. When you go to pick it up he stops you, “I got it,” he mutters, walking away with our bags before you can protest.
You sigh and begrudgingly trudge up the front steps of the large house that was modeled to look like a log cabin after him. Ethan unlocks the front door as you look around the front porch, the large bay windows giving us a sneak-peek of the inside and we all file in. You stop in awe and look around and the beautiful cabin.
There’s a large open living room with a beautiful stainless-steel kitchen, a large bar/island separates the two rooms but keeps the open-flow going. There’s a stone fireplace and a fur rug that looks softer than your bed. Big, brown leather couches and love-seats are placed facing each other, a glass and dark-oak coffee table between them. There’s a flat-screen tv on the mantle. Almost the whole back wall of the house is windows, showing the lake and wooden balcony, stone steps leading down to a grill, pool, hot tub, and a rolling yard.
“How many rooms are there in this place?”
“How expensive is this?”
“Holy shit! Did y’all see the pool?”
“Look at this kitchen!”
“There’s free TV! They have Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, and Amazon Prime!”
“Everyone gather around!” Ethan yells, silencing all the excited questions and murmurs.
We all walk over to the island, four of us sitting on the stools and Grayson and Ethan stand across from us.
“I know some of you were wondering about prices,” Ethan pauses, looking at Grayson for a second, “But this place is completely free because well- it’s ours.”
“Wait- what?” You don’t even realize you said that out loud, looking at them with wide eyes and an open mouth. Grayson catches a flash of hurt in your eyes- knowing it’s because they didn’t tell you.
“Yeah, our parents bought it awhile back as a vacation house so they could come stay and visit us and everyone but- now that Dads gone ma doesn’t come out here as much as she used to so- we wanted to bring all are friends up here to get in some use,” Grayson finally speaks up, looking at you the whole time, hoping you don’t get upset with him for not telling you.
Your brows furrow and you blink at him, “And you never told me?” Your small voice might’ve been quiet but it silenced all the other chatting. Everyone looked between you and Grayson, you and Grayson, whom you’re now stuck in a staring contest with.
“I think I’m going to check out that backyard,” Ethan announces, trying to get away from the tension.
Everyone else agrees, following him out the back French double doors. You continue to look at Grayson wordlessly and he breaks first, looking down at the counter and sighing. “I wanted to tell you,” his voice is quiet but you can hear him perfectly.
“Really? How could you- you kept an entire house from me, Grayson. I can’t believe I ever thought we were best friends,” you laugh, voice cracking.
Grayson’s head shoots up and he looks at you with furrowed brows and pleading eyes, “You were- you are my best friend! We didn’t tell anyone! No one knew about this place except for family!”
I scoff, glancing to the backyard, “So, Kristina didn’t know? She had no idea?” Grayson stays silent and I look back at him, knowing the answer.
“She’s Ethans girlfriend! Of course, she knew. Ma invited her out here once and-“ he stops when he sees your face.
“Of course she did,” you couldn’t help but chuckle mirthlessly, eyes watering slightly, “and she never once asked you to bring me?” You know the answer. Grayson’s head drops back down and that’s your confirmation, “What is it? Huh? Was that too much for you, Grayson? Did you think that by bringing me here to hang out with your family and your brother and his girlfriend you’d feel like you were being pressured into dating me? Because God forbid you think of me as more than a friend,” you throw your hands up in the air, exasperated beyond belief. Standing up you glare at him.
“That- no! God, no. Listen, y/n, I don’t know what’s going on with me, but as of recently” his voice is panicked, “I don’t know! I always saw you as my best friend. My platonic soulmate but over the past few months I’ve- I’ve noticed things about you. Things I never noticed before and they make me feel all weird and warm and I can’t stop thinking about you! And it scared me. I’m scared that I’m going to hurt you! Because I don’t know what’s going on with me but now I’m kissing you at gas stations and getting pissed off at seeing you and Ryan just talking!” He rambles and you look at him with wide eyes.
“Grayson- you-“ you look up at him and walk around the island, standing in front of him, “you hurt me more by not talking to me. The only way this,” you gesture to the two of you, “has ever worked is because we’ve always told each other everything. I should’ve told you a long time ago how I felt about you, and you should’ve told me how you were feeling as of recently. Maybe this wouldn’t have been so-“ you run a hand through your hair, looking for a word to sum up the mess you’re in.
“Fucked,” Grayson states simply and you laugh, a smile spreading on his lips at the sound.
“Yeah,” you smile back, “Totally fucked.”
“I know we have so much more to talk about and to fix but- for right now, can we please just go back to being best friends? Not forgetting everything that’s happened but we’ll just,” he smiles as he references the childhood movie he used to make you watch all the time as he gestures to putting a pin in a board, “put a pin in it?”
You roll your eyes, a matching smile on your lips. You know the smart thing to do would be to say no, have the talk right then and there but your heart- and your legs, for a matter-of-fact, can’t handle that right now, “Okay, bestiee.”
He makes a strangled noise in his throat at the nickname and pulls you in for a hug. You close your eyes, wrapping your arms around his neck as his arms go around your waist. You squeeze his neck a little and he reciprocates with a squeeze to your waist. Smiling into the hug, you take a deep breath. Grayson’s woodsey, outdoor, summer smell paired with his warmth is enough to make you feel calm and ready to face the world.
“I missed you,” Grayson whispers as you pull away from each other slowly.
“I missed you too,” you whisper back, smiling up at him.
You falter, realizing how close you are. Your hands are still around his neck, his still encircled around your waist.
And before you know it, for the second time in your life, your saying fuck friendship, and making out with Grayson Dolan.

I honestly had to take a moment to think about where I wanted to take this concept train and I decided to go down the ✨drama✨ road. So sit back and observe babes because we’re jus getting started.

I can always picture g missing y/n after short amounts of time lol- like g and e go out long-boarding and when he gets back he's running into their bedroom to find her and cuddle up <3
“Dude are we done yet?” Grayson asked as he walked towards Ethan
The two of them had left the house a couple of hours with a few friends to go longboarding. Grayson hadn’t been out the last few times and was missing it, so he decided to go when Ethan came strolling into his room. Grayson was nuzzled into the blankets with you when he walked in. Ethan was half surprised when Grayson said that he’d join.
You and Grayson had only been dating a few months before the pandemic hit. Grayson asked you to come and stay with him, half so that he knew that you were safe when everything was going down. The other cause he missed you any time you were too far from him. Grayson wasn’t sure he was gone be able to go, for the presumed, two weeks without you. And happy that he did since they’d been locked down for months.
Ethan chuckled and shook his head as he removed the helmet on top of his head “Honestly shocked it’s taken you this long to start whining.”
“What?” Grayson looked at him confused. “Just wanna get back home.”
Ethan laughed “Dude you mean you wanna get back to your girlfriend.”
Grayson opened his mouth but quickly closed it, knowing by the look on his face, Ethan knew what Grayson really wanted. It was true. Grayson felt that he needed to be beside you all the time. He had waited a long time to finally the relationship he had with you. Someone that loved him, cherished, respected him as much as he felt for them.
“So I wanna get back to my girlfriend, is that a crime?” Grayson said with a slight defensiveness to his tone.
“No. I think that it’s great the relationship you have. I love [Y/N] like a sister you know that right?” Ethan asked, Grayson quickly nodding his head.
“I can’t help it, it’s like my body craves her the moment we’re separate from each other for too long.”
“I get it,” Ethan shrugged his shoulders “I was the same when Kristina and I started dating, at least you don’t have to deal with the long-distance.”
The two of them boarded for a little longer before packing the car up and heading back to the house. Grayson saw Mando and Adele sitting at the dining room table, both with laptops opened and working hard on a few things. He smiled towards him before quickly running towards the hallway and towards his bedroom. Grayson could hear the soft noise of the television inside before quickly opening the door.
Your face came into view as you peeped up from behind the large and thick comforter you were wrapped in. A smile spread across your face before both your arms came out and reached towards him.
“I’m sweaty, babygirl.” Grayson chuckled as he walked further into the room and quickly began to strip down from the clothes he was wearing.
“I don’t care, I missed you.” You pouted as you looked up towards him.
Grayson smiled before nearly diving on top of you. Your arms wrapped around him before pulling him down towards you and kissing him deeply.
“I missed you,” You spoke softly, brushing back his long hair so you were able to see his face more.
“I missed you too,” Grayson pecked your lips before wrapping his arm around you and laying his head on your chest. Quickly your fingers starting going through his thick curls.
You smiled when you heard the soft snores coming from him as he laid on your chest. The hours of longboarding hitting him as he relaxed in your arms.
warning: language | theme: angst, college au | thank you for the 1K, guys. I appreciate every single one of you. Here is a angst filled treat as a thank you!
the relationship used to be so good, you don’t know where the two of you went wrong.
You loved Grayson Dolan, with your entire heart and soul. But sadly sometimes love isn’t enough. Sometimes love isn’t enough to keep your heart from breaking as everything around you seems to fall apart. The two of you met on the first day of college. The moment you walked into the 8:30 am English class, hair pulled away from your face and wearing a short sundress, you captured Grayson’s heart. He’d never been left breathless by someone before. You were the love of his life, he figured out in that moment. But once again, love just isn’t enough sometimes.
