Grayson knew the price going in but he couldn't hold back from starting a relationship with you that ended up in complete buried shambles after an explosive argument ended the relationship. That didn't mean he ever forgot about it.

They had split their separate ways, Grayson ending up going to Harvard and you went back to wherever you lived before Texas and the entire ordeal. Until Avery's 18th birthday was coming up, and he forced himself to go. But instead of using one of the many private jets, he found it to be too much and went with first class on a plane.

And to his dismay, he saw you in the airport and knew what was going to happen despite internally wishing that it wouldn't. Until it did, your seats were right next to each other. And taking the same private plane over into the Hawthorne Estate.

"Oh fuck me.." Grayson muttered under his breath as he took a long sip from his black coffee and boarded the plane, preparing for the longest hours of his life.
