You were Grayson’s girlfriend. The girl he kissed at Harvard when he was at college last year. You didn’t mind that he was practically emotionless and could command a room with a single arch of his eyebrow. You had enough emotion and energy for the both of you.

After Avery Kylie Grambs inherited most of the billionaire, Tobias Hawthorne’s, assets and wealth, she lived with all the the grandsons of Tobias, also known as the Hawthorne brothers- Nash, Grayson, Jameson, Xander- and her half sister Libby. After Nash and Libby got engaged, Avery has been busy with planning her annual worldly game with her boyfriend, Jameson where they would give away some of Avery’s fortune if they won the grand game. Grayson had been busy with his two half sisters, Gigi and Savvanah. Xander had been calling his girlfriend, Max (and Avery’s best friend), because she had moved back home to go to college. Grayson had nothing to prove to anyone. At least not as much anymore, and especially not to people to survived off of what he posted on his socials to portray what was happening in his life. He would've completely forgotten that he had accounts if not for the family lawyer, Alisa.

He was in a secret romantic relationship with you, something that he wasn't eager to share with everyone. But to the public he was the only single Hawthorne brother left which led to strings of tabloids coming for him. And that backed him into a corner.

Alisa had advised him to post at least something to show that he was indeed not single since he wasn't privately. So he made up his plan.

On a date, he took a picture of their drinks, making sure to get their clasped hands with their matching rings with the caption of, 'Wouldn't be anywhere else.'

"There. Something they can freak out over." Grayson placed his phone face down to lean over, kissing your cheek.
