Before
Beautifully Unexpected
M I L A
Reluctantly waking up to the ringing of the alarm, I got up from my nest of sheets and showered. After getting dressed and dabbing very little makeup on my face, I headed downstairs for breakfast. I saw dad sitting in his usual spot in front of the coffee machine, drinking coffee and watching highlights of last night’s game… Last night… He’s probably going to ask what I ate last night and why there wasn’t any leftovers. I hate lying to my dad because him and Jax are the only two I have. They’re all I’ve ever known, but you know sometimes it’s okay to keep secrets to yourself.
“Good morning,” he said, still in his phone as I walked by him, hopelessly looking for something to eat.
“Hey,” I responded finding an banana to snack on. We sat in silence for what seemed like forever.
I was about to make a clean getaway out the house until, “Wait, what did you-” The unexpected jingling of keys then the loud opening of the door followed as I silently thanked Jax for once coming in when I wanted him to.
“Hello father and annoying sister who I won’t acknowledge,” he said dropping his keys dramatically on the quartz countertop.
“For the last time, I won by a lucky shot.” I began. “I didn’t mean to intercept ten balls, sac eight times, and hurt your pride.” My dad laughs his deep laugh. “It just so happens I’m good at Madden than you are.” I finished by flipping my hair sassily.
“Did you teach her how to play?” Jax asks dad with a serious face. He still can’t come to terms that I beat him in a video game.
My dad sipped his coffee before he spoke, “I had no dealing with the creation of that beast. She simply learned and has natural luck on her side.” Jax wasn’t buying into it but I had to leave before I was for class.
“Whatever. I’ll see you two later on tonight,” I said walking towards the door leading to the garage, knowing Jax would stay for dinner.
Hopping into my new Lexus I got for my seventeenth birthday, I left out the garage and drove to school. I kept thinking on how Grayson would talk to me and treat me now that we’re back at school. Would he return to his self-centered ways or would I see the Grayson I experienced last night? I don’t know. It’s all too confusing for me. This is a prime reason I don’t do relationships. You try to think with your head, but your heart says something completely different.
When I finally got there, I noticed that I only had five minutes to get to class. That gave me a little time to sprint down the end of the hallway. I got out the car, locked the doors, and lightly sprinted down to my Physics class. After making just when the late bell rang out, I saw both Harry and Grayson smiling dearly at me. In return, I gave a quick, faint, scared smile as I walked towards my seat. Getting closer to my seat, there was a rose on my desk. I looked at it then turned to Grayson who, surprisingly, was paying attention to the teacher.
“Grayson.” He looked at me with the same look on his face last night.
“Yeah?” I held up the rose to his face and he smiled appraisingly.
“Did you get me this? “ I asked him letting my eyelashes flutter once.
“I might’ve,” he said as he let another one of his cheeky grins out and I playfully slapped him on his strong, muscular, bicep.
“It’s beautiful,” I said, inhaling the intoxicating rose.
“Just like you.” Soon I felt the heat rise in my cheeks as I shyly looked down. I heard him smirk.
Grayson was actually trying to win me over and I was letting him…
H A R R Y
She came in looking ever so gorgeous and I smiled at her. She smiled a shaky yet beautiful smile. I hope she likes the rose I put on her desk. I know it’s not much but I don’t want to be straightforward without putting any progress forth. I just wanted to test if she really liked me or if she really liked me. It’s probably a fifth grade way to say it, but it the only way I could’ve put it in. She sat down at her seat…

My head was still spinning from last night. I mean, I kissed Mila Thompson! Not a lot of people can say that and besides she’s my dream girl so it’s only right. She walked in - No, she floated in like an angel and my stomach quickly tightened. The things this girl does to me. I quickly smiled at her and she gave me my smile back. She sat down and I tried to make it appear like I was paying attention to the teacher.
“Grayson.” I loved it when she said my name.
“Yeah?” I looked at her and she waved the rose in my face, letting me get a whiff of the intoxicating plant.
“Did you get me this?” I was panicking inside because I didn’t give her that.
H A R R Y
What?! No, Mila! I gave you that rose! Are you fucking serious? I was completely losing it inside and it probably looked the same on the outside.
G R A Y S O N
“I might’ve.” Well, it wasn’t an absolute lie but something is better than nothing and it helps to get more bonus points with her so might as well claim responsibility.
H A R R Y
Oh, you fucking prick! I felt the heat inside me boil to my face and my stomach knotted as I clenched my fist tight, wanting to give him what he deserved the day I met him.
“It’s beautiful,” Mila says lightly sniffing the rose and admiring its beauty.
G R A Y S O N
“Just like you.” The rosy pink came into sight along her cheek. I slightly grinned at my accomplishment. I have her melting inside.
H A R R Y
“Just like you,” that cheesy son of a bitch said and Mila blushed. That was suppose to be me doing that to her, not that fucking overgrown wildebeest ass! It’s suppose to be me. Why can’t she see that?
