*TWO WEEKS LATER*

Grayson POV
"Dude when are you going to tell everyone that Emma and you are together" Ethan said laughing, as he peeked over my shoulder to see pictures of Emma and I

"I don't know man, we literally just got together. I'm sure it's too soon" I said

"Fine, I'll just tell her you're being a little bit-"

"Ethan! You won't"

"Watch me. She is one of best friends, she'll listen to me" he said smirking

"Fine, Fine. But not right now. When the times perfect"

"Ok, lover boy. Just keep it on the low. And you have to talk about it with her, the fans are going to find out one way or another"

I sighed. And got up to grab a glass of water. When I headed back to the living room, the door bell rang.

I opened the door and it was Emma.

"Hey handsome" she said as she kissed my lips

"Hey, baby" I said smiling and pulling her into my arms. I squeezed her tight, and we sat on the couch.

"So listen, we need to talk" She said looking up at me.

"What's wrong?"

"Um, I don't know. I've just um been thinking a lot. You realize we're going to be far away from each other for a long time very soon"

"Well, yeah but we still have like two more weeks left together"

"Actually...I'm leaving to England tomorrow" she said looking down

"I'm leaving for a couple days"

"What?! When were you going to tell me?!"

She stayed silent.

Emma POV
"You can't go! I'm sorry, you're not going." He yelled shaking his head

"What the fuck Grayson!? You can't say that!"

"Well, I just did"

"NO! No, You cant do that to me. You aren't my parent, and you go to California all the time. You never give me a heads up either, so there's no fucking reason why I can't go!" I said tears coming out of my eyes

"That's for work. That's different"

"Wow, you're really wow! Soccer, playing soccer, that's my WORK! I'm doing this to do something with my life! I have a two day camp there, and I'm staying with a friend! It's the same shit!" I said getting up.

"Babe, wait"

"No, Gray, when you calm down and want to talk, call me. I'm going back to the hotel"

"Fine, Im sorry. Please just don't go"

I hesitated, but went back to the couch. I couldn't leave while Grayson and I weren't talking.

"I'm sorry, I understand what you're saying. I just got upset because it's going to take time away from us"

"I know, but this is important to me. You need to understand that"

"Who else is going with you?"

"Um, just Alex. He has to go to another camp. Nick can't go, he's staying to help the coaches with the younger kids, and same with Maria"

"Oh"

"It's going to be fine, I'll call you whenever I'm free. I'll be back before you know it."
