He pulled away and started leaving wet kisses along your jawline. You'd never experienced anything like this, so you couldn't help but let out a small moan.
Y/N: "Gra-Grayson," you whimpered.
You felt him smile against your skin, and he began to make his way down your neck and your body. You could tell there were going to be hickeys all over yourself when you woke up in the morning, but you didn't really care; this was amazing. His hands left your waist and wandered down to the seam of your underwear, but you weren't ready, not yet anyway. You grabbed his wrists, and he looked up at you.
Y/N: "Grayson I-"
Grayson: "Don't worry babygirl, I won't do anything if you're not ready," he said with a smile, before making his way back up to your lips. He kissed you softly, before falling next to you on the bed and pulling you towards him. His arms wrapped around you, and his head rested next to yours. You were happy and felt safe like this, but there was something pissing you off.
Y/N: "Grayson?"
Gray: "Mhm.."
Y/N: "I need to turn off the lights," you said with a giggle. Grayson groaned before loosening his grip around your body. You slipped off the bed and felt his eyes on you. You smiled to yourself, before throwing on an oversized T-shirt and turning off the lights. You jumped back into bed and moved back over to Grayson. He pulled you into his embrace and fell asleep immediately; you drifted off to sleep in his arms, with a smile still plastered onto your face.
~THE NEXT DAY, 9:30 AM~
You were woken up by someone knocking on the door.
Y/N: "Yeah?"
Ethan opened the door and walked in, but stopped in his tracks when he saw you and Grayson cuddled up next to each other.
Ethan: "Hey- oh, sorry, didn't realise he was in here."
Y/N: "It's fine," you said with a yawn.
Y/N: "What did you need?"
Ethan: "I was just gonna say that everyone's up and getting ready to go out for the day."
Y/N: "Oh okay, we'll get up then."
He smiled at you before turning away, but you called after him just before he closed the door.
Y/N: "Wait, Ethan!"
Ethan: "Hm?"
Y/N: "Can I talk to you for a second, outside?"
Ethan: "Yeah, sure."
You wriggled out of Grayson's grasp and headed out your room before closing the door.
Ethan: "So?"
Y/N: "What's up with you? You used to be an absolute asshole towards me, and now all of a sudden you're being.. nice," you said with a raised eyebrow.
Ethan: "Is it such a bad thing? I mean, would you rather I went back to how I used to be?"
Y/N: "Yeah um, no. I just- it's all kinda sudden."
Ethan: "Well, I just figured, since you're now supposedly dating my brother, it would be better for both of us if we actually got along."
Y/N: "What do you mean, supposedly?"
Ethan: "Oh come on, your little story yesterday was obviously made on the spot, and don't try to tell me it wasn't, it was pretty clear considering you were stuttering for five seconds. Oh, and Grayson isn't the relationship kinda guy. Okay yeah, he's had girlfriends, but I'm sure you already know that he was using them for sex. All I'm saying is that it seems a little suspicious, a guy who uses girls to his advantage going after someone like you. If Grayson wanted a girl, he'd go for someone like Maddie," he shrugged before continuing.
Ethan: "And I know my brother, better than you probably do. He likes to play the nice guy, but once he gets close enough to you, you won't be able to stop him from getting what he wants, which in this case is you and your body."
You interrupted him before he could say any more, tears welling up in your eyes.
Y/N: "No, stop it, Gray wouldn't do anything like that. He may be your brother but he's my best friend, and I know he wouldn't do that to me," you said as you wiped away a tear that had escaped onto your cheek. As much as you wanted to believe Ethan was playing around with you, you couldn't help but think about last night. He'd moved onto you so fast, and he'd said it himself, "I won't be able to stop myself". Maybe it wasn't a complete lie...
Ethan went to say something but you stopped him.
Y/N: "No, we're done with this conversation. Go fuck yourself," and with that, you stormed back into your room and slammed the door behind you, waking Grayson up.
Gray: "Wha- what's happening?" His voice was deep and raspy, leaving butterflies in your stomach; he sounded so good when he was tired. He looked over at you and could see that you'd been crying a little.
Gray: "What the fuck happened Y/N?"
He jumped out of bed, nearly falling over, and ran over to you. He lightly grabbed your face and brought your eyes up to meet his.
Y/N: "It's no-nothing, don't wo-worry abo-about it," you said, trying not to stutter so much.
Gray: "Y/N, I'm not blind, something clearly happened."
Y/N: "Well I don't want to talk about it right now," you pulled out of his grasp and walked over to your wardrobe to find an outfit for the day.
Gray: "Will you tell me later?" You could hear the concern in his voice, so you decided to give him a chance. You turned to him and smiled.
Y/N: "I promise."
He grinned at you before heading out and over to his room so he could get ready. You looked through what you had brought with you and chose a grey, oversized jumper, some black leggings and your black combat boots since you assumed you would be doing something in the forest. You got changed, and threw your hair up into a high ponytail with a white scrunchie, before putting on some moisturiser. You weren't bothered to put on any makeup, but you applied some mascara so that you looked more awake.
After everyone had eaten, your dad and Sean gathered everybody into the living room to discuss what would be happening today.
Y/D/N: "So since we're in the middle of the forest, we decided that we'd start this weekend off with a walk along the river, and then after about 20 minutes, you can all go your separate ways and explore."
Sean: "However, for safety reasons, you should try to stay in at least groups of two, and start to head home at 2 o'clock. That'll give everyone enough time to come home and get ready to go swimming."
Y/D/N: "There's a big waterhole around here with a waterfall and everything, so we can all go over there for about 3ish, and then we'll stay out until the sun starts to set."
Sean: "After that, we'll all come home, have dinner, watch a movie and chill for the evening. Sound good to everyone?"
Everybody nodded and headed for the front door. You decided you'd stay with Gray and Ethan since you'd have more fun with them compared to your parents. Even though you sort of hated E at the moment for trying to convince you Grayson was using you for sex, he was still like family to you. Your mum, dad, Sean and Lisa walked ahead, talking about work and shit, leaving you with the boys a couple yards behind.
Ethan: "Hey you guys, we should go look for bigfoot!" He said with a big ass smile.
Gray: "You're kidding right? Bigfoot doesn't exist, it's just a myth."
Ethan: "You don't know that for sure."
Gray: "Actually, I kind of d-"
Ethan: "Shh, we're looking for bigfoot, end of discussion."
You saw Grayson roll his eyes, and you just giggled at his suggestion.
After the 20 minutes of walking along the water had finished, Lisa turned around to you three.
Lisa: "Okay guys, you can go explore now, just make sure you stay safe and get home on time."
Gray: "Don't worry, we will," he said with a smile, before taking your hand in his and following Ethan across the river. Gray was clearly into this whole exploration stuff, and he knew so much about survival out here. He kept going on about how he's always wanted to spend a night or two out in the wild, while Ethan was running around like a mad man, looking for evidence of a mythical creature. You decided to let him have his fun, as you were quite engaged in your conversation with Gray, but you could already tell this was gonna be a hell of a long day.
