Grayson Hawthorne vowed never to fight with Jameson over a girl he loved. Not after what it did to their relationship after Emily. But seeing you next to Jameson in the library, searching for your next amazing read... well, let's just say he was more than willing to break his vow. It hurt him physically not to be the one holding you, getting anything you wanted, just being with you.

You weren't really with Jameson, not technically. Jamie had the tendency to use every one around him as a means to get his goal; to solve the puzzle, to crack the riddle, to win the game. He would be bad for you. Downright terrible. But oh, how happy you looked around him. It pained Grayson. So. Fucking. Much. He didn't want to hurt his brother, but Grayson Davenport Hawthorne needed you. Badly.
