MADELINE POV

RECAP

"I bet you he has never pleasured you like this before. No man is allowed to touch or even as much as come near you. I am a very possessive man and I want you all to myself. You're mine do you understand!" He said giving me an order. 

I wasn't thinking straight and simply agreed.

He continued touching me and I laid there enjoying everything minute of it. It wasn't until after I reached my climax that I realized I had just fucked up.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

"Next time I won't hold back princess. So please, don't go near him ever again unless you want another punishing." 

He then walked away.

I just laid there processing everything that had just happened. Maybe a quick shower could help me calm down. I quickly headed to the bathroom and did just that.

I didn't really know what to think of this possessive Grayson. He clearly didn't like me hanging out with Dylan. I did like Grayson, but I disagreed with him telling me to stay away from a person I considered a good friend. 

How would I face Grayson tomorrow? It made me feel embarrassed just thinking about the erotic things he did to me not too long ago. I had never been touched like that by a man before. In fact, I had never even had a boyfriend in my entire 18 years of life.

After I was done showering, I changed into a long sleeves and pants set, then I headed inside my room to sleep. 

After being lost in thought I finally got tired and fell asleep. Well that is, I tried at first but the horror film I had watched with Dylan still lingered in my mind. 

I became paranoid and began to see things in the shadows that weren't really there. I quickly got up and turned on the lights. It was just the curtains, no ghosts whatsoever. Suddenly I heard a noise in my room and this was enough to scare the living crap out of me.

I practically ran out of my room and knocked on Grayson's bedroom door. Hopefully he would let me sleep with him tonight. I was so terrified I had completely forgotten that Grayson had pleasured me not too long ago.

He opened the door with his sexy bed hair, hot six pack, and tired eyes. As soon as he  looked at me I could tell he looked worried from his facial expression.

"What's wrong my love?" He asked walking closer to me.

"I'm terrified, I watched a horror film with Dylan today and you know how I get when I watch horror films. I start seeing things that aren't there and every little thing scares me." 

I was just rambling at this point from how scared I was. 

Suddenly I heard another noise downstairs that scared me and I immediately hugged Grayson as I tried to find comfort in his arms. 
He then reciprocated and hugged me back. I felt him kiss my head as he wrapped his arms around me. The heat from his body calmed me.

"Let's go to the bed. We can't sleep standing up." He said while laughing.

I felt his large hand grab hold of mine and I followed him to his bed. He moved the blanket to the side so I could lay down. Then he grabbed the blankets and placed them over me. He practically ran onto the other side and snuggled up beside me. I turned to face him and I rested my head on his strong chest. He wrapped his arms around me and lovingly brushed my hair to help me fall asleep.

"Goodnight princess. I love you."

"Goodnight Grayson." I answered.

That night I had the most blissful sleep. It felt right being in Grayson's arms. He made me feel safe.

I woke up to the gentle voice of someone calling out my name. 

"My love, wake up, you need to get ready for school." 

I didn't open my eyes yet. I hated waking up early and preferred to stay in bed.

"No please, just 5 more minutes." I begged half asleep. 

The gentle being began to lovingly brush my hair and I decided to grab hold of that warm hand and pull it towards me. Whoever this was, I liked them very much. 

I felt a tender kiss placed on my soft lips and it was this that woke me up. Who the hell did I just kiss?

The kind and sweet eyes of Grayson stared back at me.

"Rise and shine angel. I was worried you would stay in bed forever." He chuckled.

It was at that moment that I realized what had happened last night. From the way he pleasured me in my bed, to the moment I walked over to his bedroom and begged him to let me stay with him. Damit and my fear of horror films!

I looked away from Graysons gaze. It made me shy to even look at him after everything that had happened yesterday.

"What's wrong my love? Are you still scared of the horror film you watched yesterday? You shouldn't have gone with him." 

I could hear the irritation in his voice. He hated that I had gone out on a date with some other guy. 

"I wanted to go on a date with Dylan to see how I truly felt about him. It's not like you're my boyfriend, so I don't see why you need to be so upset." 

As soon as those words came out of my mouth I regretted it. Grayson had been very honest about his feelings towards me. He had even said that he was in love with me. It was completely understandable that he would be upset.

"I'm sorry, you have told me time and time again that you love me. It's completely understandable that you would be upset seeing me with someone else." I looked up at him to see what he was thinking.

I really needed to make up my mind about who I wanted to be with. It wasn't fair to either Dylan or Grayson for me to keep leading them on without giving them a real answer.

It was time I made a decision. But how exactly would I know? Maybe kissing Grayson would give me the answer I was looking for. 

"No, it's alright Madeline, you have every right to be with whomever you want. I'm so sorry for being so forceful with you. Yesterday I saw you kissing Dylan and this terrible jealousy consumed me. I wasn't thinking straight and I am truly sorry about it." He sounded genuine.

"Thank you" Is all I said.

"I will wait for you downstairs in the dining room. Breakfast is ready so come down when you're ready."

He sounded sad and it honestly broke my heart. I watched him walk out of the room and I really wanted to just run to him and hug his strong body.

I walked over to my room and quickly got ready. Then I washed my teeth and grabbed my backpack. As I entered the living room I noticed Grayson eating silently while looking at his phone. 

I took the seat next to him and began to eat the delicious french toast he had prepared for us. 

"Wow this tastes amazing! Thank you so much for the food!" 

Grayson turned to me and smiled. I couldn't help but blush so I immediately looked away from him.

"I'm glad you like." He answered.

He finished first and walked out towards the kitchen. I could see how upset he was. He was sad that I was probably going out with Dylan and that maybe I had no feelings for him. But the thing was that I actually really liked Grayson, maybe more than I cared to admit.

It was time for me to check if this was true. I grabbed my plate and washed it. Then I headed to the door where Grayson was waiting for me. 

"Hey Grayson can I ask you something?" I didn't know how I would do this exactly.

I mean should I suprise him and kiss him? Or should I ask him if he would even want to kiss me again?

Here goes nothing. Before he could answer my question I practically stood in my tippy toes and I pulled him in for a kiss. 

He seemed surprised at first but he quickly reacted and wrapped his arms around my waist. Our bodies were touching from how close we were and I could see how desperate he was to touch me from the passionate kiss we shared. 

His large hands tighten around my small waist. I could see how strong he was from how tightly he held onto me. Although I was also just as desperate. I wrapped my arms around his neck and occasionally pulled on his soft hair which he seemed to like.

This gave me the answer I needed. The kiss was better than the one Dylan gave me yesterday. Grayson knew how to ignite me like no one else could. I liked how he made me feel and this strong attraction I felt for him was beginning to consume me. Being close to him and the way he held me was so comforting. I wanted Grayson, he was the one I would choose. 

We pulled away to regain our breath. Although Grayson still hadn't let go of me. He just stared at me like an excited puppy waiting to receive a treat. I could tell he was happy.

I couldn't help but smile back at him. Although I began to feel shy so I hugged him to hide my red face. 

"I choose you Grayson. I want to be with you." 
 
I felt him embrace me and he gave me a gentle kiss on my head. 

"You have no idea how long I have waited for you to say those words. I love you so much Madeline and I promise you I will make you happy."
