|two weeks later|

Gray:
"GRAYSON!" I heard Cameron yell.
"WHAT?!" I yelled back as I locked my phone.
"I MADE YOU BREAKFAST! COME EAT!"
"COMING!"
I ran downstairs.
"Thanks sissy!" I said as I picked her up and spun her around.
She laughed.
I put her down.
I grabbed the plate off of the counter and went to the kitchen table.
She poured two glasses of orange juice.
She came to the table and gave me one glass of juice and sipped the other one as she sat down.
"So Gray, we're going to see Cami today." She said with a smile.
My face went blank.
"Uh..." I mumbled.
"Come on Gray, its been two weeks."
Her phone vibrated.
She read the text.
"OMG! Lola just texted me and told me she woke up! Grayson this so amazing! C'mon we have to go see her!"
I licked my lips nervously.
"Does Lola know?" I asked.
"Bout what?"
"The... The heroin."
"Uh... No, Eth and I are the only ones that know." "You sure?"
"Yes Gray, chill."
"Its just... I want to be the only one that tells her."
"We understand Grayson."
"Have you talked to mom?"
"Yeah a couple days ago. Why?"
"Uhm... What did you tell her?"
"I told her that you are doing better since the Zoloft thing."
"So she doesn't know either?"
"No, Gray, you're my brother, I got you."
I gave her a weak smile.
"You're gonna tell Cami today, right?" She asked as she drank some more orange juice.
"Yeah, duh, of course." I said as I ate another forkful of eggs.
"Good." She said as she ruffled my hair.

Lola:
"So where's Grayson?" Cami asked.
"Uhm... I don't exactly know."
She sat up in the bed.
"What do you mean you don't exactly know? Where is he?!"
"I don't know! He hasn't returned any of my calls or texts."
"Well when's the last time you've talked to him, or seen him?!"
"... Two weeks ago..."
"TWO WEEKS?!" she started crying.
"Look Cami, I know that he is okay."
"AND HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?"
"Ethan swore to me that Grayson was okay. Grayson just doesn't want anyone to know."
"OKAY BUT HOW DO I KNOW HE IS OKAY?!" she cried harder. "where's my phone?" She asked.
I handed her phone to her.
"I need to talk to Grayson. I need to know that he is okay." She said as she dialed his number.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" I yelled.
A blonde haired girl came in the room, with a bouquet of flowers.
She closed the door behind her and walked towards the bed...
It was Alana... Grayson's ex.
Cami immediately hung up the phone.
"What are you doing here?" Cami asked.
----------
Cami:
"Alana?" I asked.
Why the hell was the bi-... Let me calm down.
"Hey Camilla..."
"What are you doing here?"
"I... I'm sorry."
"For fucking with me in high school? I'm over it. Thanks for the flowers, though. You can leave."
"O-okay... Congrats on the baby."
"Thanks."
She walked out of the room.
"Total creep, right?" Lola asked.
"I mean it was nice and shit but that was two years ago."
"I guess."
"Yeah whatever, I need to talk to Grayson."
I dialed his number.
It rang three times.
"Hey!" He greeted.
"Baby, are you okay?"
"Yeah babe, I'm at the house getting ready. I'm coming to see you today beautiful."
"YAY! I was worried."
He laughed. "Nah, I'm good babe. Now lemme see that beautiful face."
"No, I look so ugly right now!"
"Too late!" He laughed and then he turned the call into a FaceTime.
We both stopped and just stared at each other.
"I... I've missed you so much..." He started tearing up.
I started tearing up too.
"I love you Grayson."
"Awh, don't cry! Baby, I promise I'm coming to see you, today! I'm almost ready! I promise!"
I wiped my tears.
"I know, Gray, no really, its not that, I just feel like I put you through a lot of pain and I'm sorry."
"Its okay baby! Really! I love you!" He smiled trying to make me happy.
"I love you too. Go get ready! I'm ready to see you!"
"Okay princess! See you soon."
"Byeeeeee" I laughed and blew a kiss.
He looked both ways, bit his lip, and then caught it.
I laughed. "Fuckboy."
"Ayee."
I laughed again. "Okay bye, for real now!"
"Okay see you soon, baby!"
"Okay!" I hung up.

I looked up at Lola and smiled.
"I told you he was fine." She laughed.
"I know, I know." I laughed.
"He really loves you Cami."
"Yeah... I love him too." I smiled.
"So are you gonna tell him about the Alana?"
"Yeah, uhm, when he gets here."
"Oh, okay. That's still weird, that she came out of no where."
"Yeah, but it's whatever, so how's Aiden?"
"Oh he's good, he's at his mom's, visiting with his family."
"Oh cool, so have you talked to Mala- OMG YOUR BELLY HAS GOTTEN SO BIG!"
"I know right! Haha, but what were you saying?"
"Oh, I said have you talked to Malachi?..."
"Nope. And really I don't want to, but I have so many questions!"
"Tell me, I've got time." I smirked.
"Okay so, like I really think Aiden and I will be together for a long time and I want the baby to have his last name but, I don't know if I can do that. Plus I don't want to be shady like that because Malachi is the baby's father, ya know?"
"Okay so..."

Ethan:
I needed to talk to Grayson asap. Wtf did he do to me?! I mean, I've been puking and having cramps and headaches and everything.
