Chapter 4

"Mom, I'm gonna be meeting Grey at the park at noon. Do you mind if I go?" I asked her with pleading eyes.

"Sure, love. Just be home before six, alright?" Her statement made me raise my eyebrow at her and ask, "What makes you say that I'd be with him that long?" She just rolled her eyes and laughed.

"Claire, I know you. You never want to leave when you're with him. You two are inseparable." I sighed in defeat. "Okay, mom. You're right. I'll be back before six. I stood up, put my dishes in the sink and I took a shower. I wore my red and white vertically-striped blouse, my beige shorts, and my black converse with multi-colored laces. I went downstairs and told my mom that I'd get me and Greyson some snacks before going to the park.

I checked my bag for my BlackBerry, house keys, my pen, and my songwriting notebook. Yes, I have written some songs before. I got my guitar, gave my mom a peck on the cheek and left for the convenience store while my mom waved goodbye and reminded me again to be home before six.

(Greyson's POV)

I decided to wear my Ramones shirt. It was my favorite shirt, and it was also a gift from Claire on my birthday. I also wore my black slim cut jeans and put on my black converse which almost matched Claire's, minus the colored laces.

I was actually nervous about seeing her today. Why am I acting like this? I'm used to being with her all the time.

I got out of the house and headed towards the convenience store. I checked my watch. It was only 10:45 in the morning. I decided to get two root beers, one for me and one for Claire. It was our favorite drink. I also got a bag of Cheeto's in case we'd be hungry while writing the song. I went to pay for the food and drinks. I got out of the store, and headed to the park on my bike. I checked my watch again. It was 11:16. It wouldn't hurt to be there early, right?
