18.


I laid down on a beach, it was peaceful as usually I hated the beach. But I felt happy, looking down to the ocean. Seeing myself in a bikini, looking past myself. Seeing by the crystal water, a guy. Actually two, playing around in the water. Soon identifying them being Grayson and Ethan. Smiling at them being idiots.

"Aren't they cute?" Hearing a familiar voice state, my head snapped to beside me. Seeing, wait. What the?

"Haylee!?" I questioned in a tone, surprised to see her.

"You ok Deanna?" She questioned rising to her elbows. "Has the sun got to you already?" She then threw a bit of my hair out of the sand back onto the towel I was on.

"What?" I was confused.

"Your knife wounds are healing well." He eyes trailed off to the water. "In coming." I looked up and see a smiling Grayson, dripping of water.

"Hey beautiful." Grayson reached down and kissed me. "You know how you hate the water so much?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah?" Then before I knew it, Ethan ran up and hugged Haylee. Laying with her, while Grayson threw me over his shoulder. As if I was a sack. "Grayson!" I screamed, as he laughed. Chucking me into the water, I came back up to the surface. Not impressed, as I begun slapping him. Pushing him into an incoming wave, laughing.

"Ethan!" I jumped awake, wide eyed. Seeing a very pissed off Grayson storm up to Ethan's side of the bed.

"Gray! Whoa!" Ethan was then somehow, thrown up to his feet. Grayson pinned Ethan against the wall, having his arm against Ethan's neck. I got to my knees, shocked.

"How dare you E! You know bro code!" Grayson exclaimed, his face becoming red.

"I- I didn't break bro code!" Ethan struggled to say, this has come to far.

"Grayson!" I exclaimed, jumping my feet. Pushing Grayson off of Ethan, catching Ethan who struggled for breath. "You ok?" I whispered to Ethan who nodded, o stood up walking over to Grayson. "I didn't sleep with him in that way Grayson, go cool off!" I shoved him out the door. Grayson just ran, my attention then landed on Ethan. I helped him up, taking him to the kitchen. Getting an ice cold water out of the fridge, placing it on the table for him. Grabbing Ethan by his chin. "Open your mouth."

"Why?" Ethan asked.

"Just do it." I bossed, squeezing his mouth open. Looking at his throat, making sure it wasn't damaged. "You're fine." I explained sitting down beside him. "I'm sorry that Grayson done that to you."

"It's ok, he just got the wrong idea." As soon as Ethan stopped talking, I heard rubber burning. We both saw out the kitchen window to where my car is and Graysons was.

"Great, just great." I stated sarcastically.

"Don't worry, I think I might know where he's gone. Go and get ready." He stood up, seeing by his posture and the vibe I get off of him. He's worried, stressed and confused. I went and got changed into denim shorts, a white singlet top and my cowgirl boots. Ethan met me in my car, as he directed me where to go. Smelling salty air and hearing seagulls, Graysons gone to the same beach I tried to stay at when I left. I parked the car, a little bit away from Grayson. Not close enough that he would know we were here.

"I think you should talk to him first." I told Ethan.

"Why, I think you should go first." Please don't tell me we are going to have this fight.

"No, cause he hurt you. So you should talk to him first." Ethan shrugged.

"Fair." He replied opening the door, closing it behind him. He stopped for a second, looking to his brother. Seeing the pink and blue cover the morning sky, Ethan looked to me. Unsure, all I done was give him the gesture to go. So he did, he arrived and sat beside Grayson. Watching them talk, at one stage they looked like they were about to start fighting again. They all of a sudden both looked to me, Ethan gave me the gesture to come over. I sighed heavily, getting out of the car. Closing the door behind me, Ethan met me half way. Whispering. "He has a few things to get off his chest, talk to him about what's on your mind." I nodded, as Ethan continued to the car. I walked over to Grayson, sitting beside him. He wouldn't look at me.

"What you done... back at the warehouse, wasn't cool." I stated, seeing his eyes watery. "Grayson, please talk to me."

"I.. I saw you in Ethan's bed, I got so angry."

"So you got jealous?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Deanna." I shook my head.

"I know you are going to say that we kissed, as I was using you as a rebound for my grief over Derek. I'm not like that, any other person in the world is probably like that. When I grieve, I show emotion towards the people I care about most. I'm scared of loving you, I'm scared to lose you and Ethan. Cause I don't know what will happen tomorrow and if the dead rose will come for us that day. Grayson, there is SO much you don't know about me and I'm willing to share that with you over time." I couldn't believe it, I just opened up to someone. I was scared of what Grayson would say next, but my heart slowed down from its rapid speed. As soon as Graysons hand held my face,with his lips moving in time with mine. Grayson quickly moved his hand from my face, to my waist. While I wrapped my arms around his neck, Grayson moved me closer to him. Having that feeling of security again, the same butterfly feeling I get with him.

Our lips slowly left each other's, seeing the cutest smile on Graysons face. "Luckily I've got Reggies approval." Grayson stated.

"Oh no you don't." I stated, he looked at me confused.

"What do you mean?"

"You've got his approval that I can be with you 24/7, you have to be very special for him to approve this." I explained. "Do you want us? Do you want me?" Grayson looked away, then done a weird jitter and smiled at me.

"Yes, I do want you." He explained happily,I smiled at him. I just took in every feature of his face, we looked over to Ethan who was dancing. We laughed at him, as he froze. Rubbing the back of his neck in embarrassment, I'm finally ok for a change. Hopefully this lasts a little longer.
