I woke up the next morning to see that I was cuddling with Alex. I don't know how this happened, but I'm glad it did. I hesitate but I slowly lifted my hand from his upper back, then started running my fingers through his hair.

His hair is so soft! His eyes flutter open and he looks up at me. "What a great way to wake up." He said with a raspy voice and smiles softly. 

"Yeah." I said with a smile. "You're so warm." He said, pulling himself closer to me. I just chuckled. "Wanna go out for the day? Like just spend the whole entire day at the beach or something?" I asked.

"Man I thought you were going to say "wanna go out with me" but then again, you basically did." He chuckled. "haha, so do you?" "Sure. The beach sounds fun." "Alright, I'll ask my parents to drop us off." He just nodded.

We laid there for a few more minutes then got up and I went through my dresser and pulled out two pairs of swim trunks. "Which one do you want?" I asked, holding up both pairs.

"Um...the black ones." I tossed them to him then went into my bathroom and changed then waited a few minutes so he could change as well.

I walked out of the bathroom, then we both left my room and went downstairs. "Hey mom, can you drive us to the beach?" I asked as we walked into the kitchen. "Sure, do you want breakfast first?" She asked and we both nodded.

We sat down at the table and she handed us both a plate full of bacon, eggs, hash browns and pancakes.

After we finished eating, I washed both of our dishes, then we walked outside and waited for my mom by the car.

~~~~~~~~~~~

We got to the beach like 10 minutes ago and already like 20 girls came up to us and asked for pictures with me. This was the first time that this has ever happened to me. 

I don't even know why they are freaking out, by just being near me. A few of them claimed to be huge fans, but how could they be fans of me if I don't do anything to make myself famous, I rarely even post on social media.

Of course I took pictures with them, cause I'm not going to be that one guy who refuses to interact with their fans.

Most girls just asked for a picture, but a few of them wanted to make musical.lys. Which was a little weird to me, but I went along with it.

"You really are famous, aren't ya." Alex teased as another fan left. "Shut up." I said shoving him playfully. "Hey! don't push me!" He said pushing me back. 

I tried to push him again, but he grabbed my wrists. We were really close to each other. "Hi." He said with a smirk. "Hi." I said back, biting my lip nervously. 

"God, you're cute." He said as he let go of my wrists. I just rolled my eyes. "Race ya to the water!"I yelled out then started running towards the water.

"No fair cheater!" He yelled then started running after me. I got into the water and walked until the water was at my waist then I dived under the water.

Alex's Pov...

I watched Bentley dive under the water into a small wave, then stopped when the water hit my feet and waited for him to come up from under the water.

After a few more seconds of him still under the water, I started to freak out. I ran through the water as much as I could, then started swimming when it got deep enough and started calling out for him and trying to feel for him in the water.

A few seconds later, I felt someone and pulled them up. "Gotcha!" Bentley yelled when he opened his eyes and saw me, then laughed. "Ugh! you're such an ass! Don't scare me like that!" I yelled and shoved him a little.

"Sorry." He said feeling bad. "It's okay." I said pulling him into a hug. "Just please, never do that again." "Okay." He said hugging back.

I really didn't want to let go of him, but had to, before anyone else noticed us hugging. We both pull away from each other, then go back to shore.

Bentley's Pov...

We got out of the water and saw some people playing volleyball, so we walked over to them and asked if we could join. Since there wasn't that many of them, they agreed.

After we finished the game we introduced ourselves. I don't know why we didn't before, but whatever.

"Why do you look familiar?" A girl said looking at me. I just shrugged cause she doesn't look familiar to me. "What's your name?" "Bentley." She thought for a second. "I still can't figure it out."

"Have you seen him on Instagram?" Alex asked trying to see if she's seen me on social media and that's how she recognizes me. "That's where I've seen you!" She says proud of herself that she figured it out.

"Are you famous or something?" The other girl asked. "No." I lied cause I didn't want them to treat me differently. 

"He's sort of famous, like he's famous because his parents are famous." Alex told them and I gave him a look.

"You're a Grier!" The first girl basically yelled. "Did you say Grier? Like a Hayes and Nash Grier?" An older lady asked as we walked over to us.

"No." I said, not wanting anyone else on the beach to know who I am. "Oh." The lady said then started to walk away.

"He's lying, he's related to them." The second girl said with a smirk. What the hell? Obviously i don't want people to know. God I hate people like her.

"How are you related to them?" The lady asked. "I'm not allowed to talk to strangers." I said, then grabbed Alex's wrist and tried to walk away, but he wouldn't budge.

"I would say by their ages and how young he looks, I would say that he's probably one of their grandson's." The second girl said.

My dad's not that old...okay maybe he is. "They aren't that old." I said, kinda annoyed that this girl keeps talking. "Yeah they are. Aren't they like over 50 years old? That's old."

"They may be old, but they are still hot." The lady said. Okay ew. "So how are you related to them?" The lady asked again. "I'm Hayes' son..." I said with hope that she would just leave after I told her.

"You must have your mom's eyes." She said kinda rudely. That didn't even make sense tho. Both of my parents have bright blue eyes.

"Um...okay?" I said confused as to how having my mom's eyes is a bad thing. "I'm sorry you have to live with her." She said as she put her hand on my shoulder.

What does that mean? My mom is amazing, I don't understand. "Um...What?" I asked confused. "Your mom, is a very bad person." I am so confused and uncomfortable right now.

"We have to go." Alex said grabbing my wrist and pulling me away from them, probably noticing that I was really uncomfortable.

"Thanks." I said, once we were far away from them. "No problem, what was she talking about? Your mom seems nice." "I don't even know, It doesn't make sense to me." I said as I sat down on the sand.

He sat down next to me and I looked over at him. "I am so confused that I'm freaking out mentally..." "Aw, no don't freak out." He said hugging me.

I would push him away since we are in public and people are judgy, but I really need a hug and he kinda smells really good. I hug back and rest my head on his shoulder.

~~~~~~~~~

It's 7:30 p.m. and mom just picked us up. Alex is in the back seat with Alaya and I'm up front with my mom.

"Hey mom?..." I asked looking at her. "Yes, sweetie?" She asked, while keeping her eyes on the road. "While we were at the beach a lady walked over to us after finding out that I'm a Grier and she said some things..."

"Like what?" She asked, looking at me for a second, then back at the road. "First she said "You must have your mom's eyes" rudely, I didn't get it, you and dad both have bright blue eyes. Then she said that you were a very bad person..."

"She's probably just a fan of your dad's, that hates me." She said, not fazed by what I just told her at all. "Oh...I didn't like that she said that...I started to have a mental break down..."

"Aw, sweetie, I'm sorry. You just have to ignore those people." She said, grabbing my hand and giving it a slight squeeze. "Did you have fun other than that?" She asked.

"Yeah, we had fun. I found out today, that I have fans...I didn't know that." "You didn't know that you had fans?" She asked confused and I just shook my head.

"I've seen a few fanpages for you." "What are fanpages?" I asked confused. "They are accounts on social media like Twitter and Instagram that post things about a person that they are a fan of."

"Oh, did you have any?" I asked curiously. "A few, your dad and uncle had a lot tho. Your brother did too." I just nodded, then went on my phone and searched Instagram for fanpages about me.

I clicked on the first one that I saw and scrolled through the page. I liked a couple of the posts and followed them, then went through another one, doing the same thing.

By the time that we got home, I had checked out about 10 fanpages. Some of the captions of the photos made me kinda uncomfortable. Some people are REALLY dirty...

The last page I clicked on claimed to be a fact page, so I scrolled through the account to see if any of the facts were actually real.

Bentley.Grier.Facts

Fact 1: Bentley was born on December 18th.
Fact 2: Bentley's middle name is Hunter.

Fact 7: He learned how to walk when he was 11 months old.

Fact 8: He prefers Baseball over Football.
Fact 9: He's single.

Fact 10: He followed me on 7/14!!!

Surprisingly, all of the facts were true, they must have found out most of the stuff from my parents. I'm kinda just laying on my bed on my phone, with Alex next to me, also on his phone.

"It's weird how much these people know about me." I said showing him a fact. He read it then laughed. "You use to run around with your underwear on your head?"

"Shut up, all kids have! Right? If you haven't, there's something wrong with you." "I haven't. I guess There's something wrong with me." He said with a chuckle.

"Shut up, I'm going to see If my brother had a fact page." I said, then searched for one on Instagram. "Ooh found one!" "Read them to me."

Jacob.Grier.Facts

Fact 1: His full name is Jacob David Tyler Grier.
Fact 2: He's named after his parent's best friend Jacob Martin.
Fact 3: He goes to Davidson Day High school just like his parents did.

Fact 8: His favorite ice cream is Mint chocolate chip.
Fact 9: He wants to have 3 kids, 1 girl and two boys.
Fact 10: He's only gone on tour once in his life.

"Man that's sad..." I said after reading a few of the facts. "What is?" Alex asked confused. "The fact where it said that he wanted three kids, He only got to have one, and sadly missed being there for her." "Aw, that is sad."

I read a few more, then went on to see if there were anymore fact pages for anyone else in my family.

Justine.Grier.Facts

Fact 1: She is the forth and last kid in her family.
Fact 2: She's known Hayes all of her life.
Fact 3: Her oldest brother passed away when she was really young.
Fact 4: Her and her other two siblings, were pretty much raised by Hayes' mom.

Fact 8: Her real name is Justine Renee Phillips.
Fact 9: She's a really good dancer.
Fact 10: She wants to have 3-4 kids, 1 girl and 2-3 boys.

"I thought my mom only had a brother..." I said confused, cause no one ever talks about her other brother and her sister. "Well, it said that her brother had past away when she was little, maybe she doesn't remember him, or maybe it just hurts to talk about?"

"Maybe, but what about her sister?..." He just shrugged. "Maybe they had a bad relationship?" "Maybe, I'll ask my mom later." He nodded again, then I found a fact page for my dad.

Hayes.Grier.Facts

Fact 1: He used to bully Justine Phillips, along with some other guys.
Fact 2: His full name is Benjamin Hayes Grier.

Fact 3: He's dating Justine Phillips.

Fact 4: He loves dirt bikes.

Fact 7: He's on tour with Magcon.
Fact 8: He is on tour with Digi for a year.
Fact 9: He might have a new girlfriend.
Fact 10: He's over 6 feet tall.

I have so many questions to ask my parents now. I'm kind of hoping that most of these facts are false. Especially the bullying one, it just doesn't make sense to me. "I'll be right back..." I said and got up, then left my room, before Alex could say anything.

"Dad?" I asked as I walked into his office. "Yeah?" He asked, putting down the pictures that were in his hands. "Did you bully mom?" I asked, sitting down across from him. He looked like he had just seen a ghost or something.

"Who told you that?" He asked. "I found a fact page about you, it said that you and a few other guys bullied her...that's not true right?"

He took a deep breath, then told me about what really happened. So apparently, This guy my dad was friends with, started bullying my mom in like 4th grade, all because she didn't want to 'date' him.

Then after a few years, he got his friends to join in. Dad was one of them, but he was the only one who hadn't physically hurt her and tried his best to not say too hurtful things.

I find it kinda dumb that the guy did that. Like seriously? They were what? 10? Of course she's not going to want to 'date' him, she probably wasn't old enough to date anyways.

"I have another question...What happened to Mom's sister?" "We don't talk about her." He said, avoiding eye contact. "Why?" I asked, really wanting to know. "Bentley stop, just go." "Fine."

I got up and went back to my room and laid back down next to Alex after locking my door again, out of habit.

"Did you get any answers?" He asked looking away from his phone and at me. "Kinda, he answered the bullying one, but refused to talk about my aunt..."

"Something bad must have happened, I wouldn't push it." He said, putting his phone down then rolling over onto his back and staring at the ceiling.

"I guess." I said, rolling onto my back as well, but looking at him instead of the ceiling. He looked over at me, and we kinda just stared at each other for a while.

The whole time I was thinking about how badly I want to kiss him. I didn't think he noticed me staring at his lips, until he got closer to me and pressed his lips against mine.

I instantly kissed back and put my hands on his cheeks and he put his on my waist. I always thought that people were crazy, when they said they felt fireworks when kissing someone else until now.

We kissed for a little longer, then pulled away smiling. "Will you be my boyfriend?" I whispered. He smiled even wider and nodded. "Yes." I smiled widely then kissed him again.

This kiss lasted a little longer and was better. I don't know how to describe it but it was amazing. We pulled away, then decided to watch TV and kinda just cuddle.

We browsed through a couple of channels and ended up just watching Disney Channel, cause why not?

(I don't get people who hate Disney Channel or the people who say that you are too old to watch Disney Channel. You can never be too old to watch Disney.)

We stayed up so late that old Disney movies started to play. These movies came out such a long time ago dang.

We eventually fell asleep during one of the movies.
