Emily's POV*

Not long after me and Ethan pulled into the restaurant Grayson and Madison got out of their car.

I looked at Maddie and she looked angry. Her eyebrows were furrowed and her hands were balled up into small fists. Ethan and I looked at one another and burst out laughing.

"Good luck dealing with that. When Madison is mad, she's Mad." I said and Ethan chuckled. "Remember when she swung at Brianna" I said and Ethan's eyes widened.

"Oh fuck I forgot about that" he said and I laughed. "Go get em tiger" I said and he laughed nervously.

I walked over to Grayson and he smiled at me. He swung his arm around my shoulder and kissed my cheek.

"How was Brianna?" I laughed and he instantly sighed.

"Fucking horrible. She kept bugging Madison and saying all this stupid shit and Maddie almost snapped but I dragged her way just in time" he said and I laughed at the last part.

"But enough about Brianna" he said opening the door for me. We both walked in and met James, Emma, Ethan and Madison inside.

"Hey sister" James said engulfing me in a hug. I laughed and hugged him back. "I heard you and Grayson are back together" he said quietly.

"Yeah but it's secret so don't tell anyone" I said and he winked at me. "Gotcha"

"Hey Em" Emma said embracing me in a hug. "We still haven't hung out yet" she fake pouted.

"You free tomorrow?" I asked her. "Yeah" She said nodding her head.

"Mads you free tomorrow?" I asked Madison and she nodded.

"Alright it's settled. We're doing something fun tomorrow" she said and I smiled.

"Table for six" Grayson said to one of the waitresses. She was young with bleach blonde hair down half way to her back and piercing blue eyes.

She looked Grayson up and down and a wide smirk formed on her lips. I rolled my eyes at her. "Right this way" she said grabbing six menu.

She walked in front of us, leading the way to our table. She swayed her hips as she walked causing me to roll my eyes again.

We were seated at a large booth and we all piled in. On one side was Grayson, Me and James. The other side was Madison, Ethan and Emma.

She placed the menus in front of us. "So can I start you guys off with something to drink" she said to all of us.

After we all order our drinks she scribbled them down on her notebook. "They'll be right out" she said then sending a wink to Grayson.

I rolled my eyes and she smirked at me.

"You're hot when you're jealous" he said placing a hand on my thigh slowly moving it upwards.

I looked over at him and he had the biggest smirk on his face.

This boy.

*9.45pm*

After we had our food and said our goodbyes to Emma and James we all decided on going straight home and having a movie marathon. I wasn't mad at that. I love getting all snuggled up to Grayson and feeling like nothing can break us.

But tonight was the night I would be telling Grayson about the Note. I cant keep it from him any longer. Even tho I haven't done anything wrong I can't help but feel guilty.

We pull into the front garden of the twins new house after a silent but peaceful trip home. Ethan turns off the ignition and we all get out.

The twins burst out of the car ahead of me and Maddie fighting over what movie to watch first.

"Bro I'm telling you ... first you cant watch a horror after a comedy it doesn't work like that" grayson tells Ethan as he opens the door.

I grab Maddie's hand pulling her back as I wait for Ethan and Grayson to enter the house. She looks at my hand on hers and then looks at my face.

"Is everything ok?" She asks concerned. She can obviously see how nervous I am.

"Yeah everything is fine". I tell her

"Well then why did you-"

"I'm going to tell Grayson about the note" I blurt out cutting her off.

"Well if you're sure." She says almost as if it was a question.

"I'm sure. I cant keep it from him anymore." I say convincingly looking into her eyes.

"Are you telling him like right this second?" She asks.

"Yes. You guys pick first film and I'll take Grayson into his room."

"Ok I gotcha, and don't worry em it'll be ok, he will understand." She says embracing me in a hug.

"Thanks mads." I say as Grayson comes to the door.

"Hey what's taking you guys so-" he cuts himself off as he sees me and Maddie hugging.

"Is everything ok?" He asks with a worried look across his face.

"Everything is fine gray don't worry." I say sending him a smile as me and Maddie join him and Ethan in the living room.

"Finally" ethan says taking a sigh of relief.

"we need a girls opinion on what film to watch first" he finishes.

"How about you and Maddie pick a film while me and gray go for a quick chat." I say looking to Grayson and he nods.

"Comedy it is." Ethan says with a cheeky smile trying to get graysons attention.

But Grayson is too busy trying to figure out what is on my mind to even notice. Ethan and Maddie turn there attention back to the tv and me and Grayson go to his room.

He sits down on his bed and pats down on a spot beside him signaling for me to sit there.

I send a weak smile and sit down next to him.

"What's on your mind em?" He asks placing his hand on mine and looking into my eyes.

Ugh he's making me so nervous.

but I shouldn't be because I haven't done anything wrong. Right?
