JESSICA

Grayson is so fucking late. That asshole. He told me to wait in this spot and now he’s nowhere to be found. I was silently cursing him in my

head when I heard a familiar voice.

“Jessica…”

Huh?

“Jessica…”

What the fuck. I sit up so last the room tits. Did 1-1 Was 1-7 My eyes dart, frantic. I scan the room and realize I’m in my own fucking bed. But why am I here? The last thing I remember is I was waiting for..

“Shit,Grayson.”

I quickly jump off the bed and grab my phone, dialing his number. It’s past midnight already, and this is beyond ridiculous. What the hell happened? The phone rings. Once. Twice.

“50, you and Aria are back, huh?”

I feel the ground slip out from under me. My stomach drops, a wave of nausea rushing over me.

Aria. Grayson’s fucking ex?

I barely breathe, pressing my back to the wall, my chest tight, as if I’ve just been punched. My eyes burn, the sting of tears threatening to spill, but I don’t let them fall W What does he mean by that?

Pierce’s voice, quieter now, almost too calm. “So what are you gonna do about it!”

Grayson laughs, and the sound claws at my insides. It’s rough, like he’s trying to mask something, but it only makes it worse. “Don’t know
