Gray’s POV:

I laughed at her reaction, pinching her nose in affection.

“I’m just teasing you,” I grinned, although I knew she knew I was just teasing her. “And if you want me to, I can stick to you all day~“

I caught myself before I could nod vigorously, still making an attempt to play it cool. "Sure. Um. Yes please."

Gray’s POV:

I linked our fingers together, shooting her a bright smile.

“Great, done, now I’m glued to you the entire day,” I said, smiling at her.

"Perfect."

Why did my voice sound so breathless? For God's sake, all he'd done was smile at me and take my hand. I really was hopeless, wasn't I?

"Guess we should go back now…"

Gray’s POV:

I didn’t miss the breathlessness in her voice. It made me smile wider. I squeezed her hand, pulling her along.

“Right, and let’s hope we don’t catch them making out.”

(Wait for Autumn?)

Eden's POV:

I leaned into his touch, eyes closed in bliss. His touch that drove me crazy. His touch that burned me, but did it pleasantly.

"I should be the one thanking you," I murmured. "You've shown me so many things–things I didn't think I was even capable of getting, or even doing."

Sterling’s POV:

“I never actually thought I would get as girlfriend as amazing as you are. I’m just giving you what you deserve,” I said softly, kissing her nose with a smile.

Eden’s POV:

His words made me smile stupidly, and the kiss on my nose didn’t make it any better.

I wrapped my arms around him tighter and softly pressed my lips against his.

“Jeez, I thought ten minutes were enough for you guys, but clearly I was wrong,” a sarcastic voice interrupted us, making me pull back.

“Great,” I muttered, too irritated to be flustered. “Luke 2.0. Just great.”

I swatted Gray’s shoulder, sliding back into the booth. “Ignore him,” I told Eden and Sterling, “Sorry if we interrupted anything.”

Sterling’s POV:

I didn’t even get the chance to kiss her back before Grayson’s voice popped our little bubble of bliss. With a sigh, I pulled back, not before lightly kissing her cheek.

“Yeah, yeah… What can I say? We’re madly in love,” I chuckled, glancing over at the other couple. “Don’t worry about it, Violeta. We were just finishing up anyway.”

Gray’s POV:

I laughed, rubbing the spot Violeta hit before I turned my attention back towards them.

“Right, as if we can’t see that already,” I teased. “Looking at you two interacting makes everyone want to take a cold shower.”

To my surprise, Eden’s cheeks turned pink and she cleared her throat, looking as if she was lost in a memory.

Sterling’s POV:

I blinked at his words, clearing my throat as I remembered the same thing being spoken of us not too long ago. It had only been a few months since our graduation, when the student president had said them. A glance at Eden showed me that she must have been thinking the same thing as I was, and I patted her knee gently.

“Right… Yeah. Anyway, you two ready to order?” I asked, changing the subject.

(Teobready?)

“I can share something with Gray,” I offered. “Whatever he wants is gone by me, as long as there aren’t pineapples.”

Gray’s POV:

I looked at her with my eyebrows raised.

“I can’t believe you don’t like pineapples on pizza,” I said with a disappointed look on my face, shaking my head.

“You didn’t look so disappointed in me a few minutes ago,” I muttered under my breath, before sliding a menu in his direction. “Choose something.”

Gray’s POV:

I shot her an amused look, taking the menu from her.

“Because kissing you and finding out you don’t like pineapples on pizza are two different things,” I said before I turned my attention to the menu, unconsciously humming ‘I Have A Pen’, a song I hated more than life itself.

Sterling’s POV:

I chuckled softly at their conversation and glanced between them. “I could split one with Gray so we could have pineapples. Then you girls could split one without?”

(Lmfao Gray)

I gave a shrug, trying and failing to cover up my blush. “I’m cool if Eden is.”

Eden’s POV:

I nodded, satisfied.

“Perfect,” I said, crossing my legs. “I would also like some olives with mine—no pepperoni.”

“Oh——I’ve had a black olive and ham pizza before, want to try that?” I offered, interlacing my fingers with Gray’s beneath the table.

Sterling’s POV:

I grinned, gently squeezing Eden’s knee where my hand had been resting. Picking up the menu, I glanced over the choices.

“What about the Crazy Hawaiian pizza? It’s for almost everything on it, except for anchovies, olives, and onions,” I suggested, glancing at Gray.

Eden’s POV:

I scrunched my nose.

“I’m not… I don’t really consume anything pig,” I said hesitantly, scratching the back of my head.

Gray’s POV:

My mouth almost watered at that.

“Perfect,” I said, nodding a little too quickly. “Olives and I don’t get along well. And I hate onions on pizza.”

Eden’s POV:

I scrunched my nose.

“I’m not… I don’t really consume anything pig,” I said hesitantly, scratching the back of my head.

“Right, okay, what about the green and black olive pizza?” I suggested quickly, not wanting her to feel awkward.
