"Okay, I think that's everything for me." Chris said and zipped up his suitcase.
"I'll be done in a sec." I said quietly as I placed my toiletries in my suitcase. "Hey, have you seen my pink headband?"
"Grace." Chris called.
"Yes?" I responded, not looking at him.
"Are we ever gonna talk about last night?" He asked.
"What about last night?" I asked back, looking around for my headband.
"Grace-"
"Look, Chris." I looked at him and sighed. "I had no idea what I was saying last night, I had some stuff to drink, I guess I was just pretty mad at everything and I said stupid shit that I didn't even mean. My head was fucked up last night, I didn't mean any of the shit I said."
"You don't have to say that." Chris said, leaning on the couch. "You don't have to say you didn't mean any of it because you're

Chapter 31"Hey Grace." Kyle said at the other end of the phone.I positioned my phone between my head and shoulder, "Hey you. I thought you were in Bath already.""I am." He said.I opened the refrigerator with my left hand and my eyes roamed around its content, searching for the love of my life."Whoa, how much is this call gonna cost you?" I chuckled as my eyes landed on a tub of strawberry chocolate chip ice cream.Come to me, baby."Apparently my mother's got it all covered." He said. "She has been spoiling the shit out of me ever since I got here.""Typical." I said as I took out the tub of ice cream, a plastic spoon, whipped cream and Oreos. I adjusted them all in my hands and placed them atop the counter. "How are your half siblings? Are they brats?"His laugh sounded through the phone, "They

Chapter 32Dean took me to a park.We were the only ones at the park and we were seated on the grass. It was dimly lit and comfortably quiet.Except for the sounds of my crying.All Dean did was hold me, ever so closely to him, as I cried into his chest. We had been in that position for minutes, half an hour maybe, I wasn't sure. But what I was sure of was the way Dean held me, his arms wrapped around me, pulling me close to him. He held me like he was trying to shield me from the hurt I was feeling and somehow make it go away, gently stroking my hair, whispering comforting words to me, never once asking me what had happened and never once apologizing for what he knew not of.He just held me.And I could've stayed in that position forever.Truth is, I was able to calm myself down a little bit before Dean arrived at my house. I was out of th

Chapter 33"Maybe we'd get a Christmas tree but it wouldn't be a big one." I said and gasped excitedly, hitting his arm. "Ooouu, and candy canes! I want lots and lots of candy canes!"Kyle chuckled down at me, "You know, I find it really weird that you want to decorate your house when you wouldn't be spending Christmas at your house."I let out a soft laugh, "Psh, so? It's good to have that Christmas feeling because it's Christmas!""No, it's not." He smiled at how childish I was acting. "December 25th is Christmas. Today is December the 5th. I don't get why everybody goes all out way before the big day.""Yeah, I get that it's the 25th but Christmas isn't just a day, it's a season!" I said in a soothing voice, smiling as I did. "Christmas is December. Back home, we don't put down our Christmas tree until New Years Eve.""Oh, wow.""And

Chapter 34I heard nothing from Dean that night.No texts, no calls; nothing.And I just have to admit, it kind of hurt.I don't know what I was expecting, maybe an apology via text, a voicemail, a plea from Chris, something. But he didn't do anything and I hated the fact that I was waiting for him to.I looked at my phone every ten minutes to see if there was anything from Dean and my heart sank every time I saw nothing. Whenever my phone would vibrate with a notification, I'd hurriedly take it and get disappointed when I see that it has nothing to do with him.Maybe he really didn't care anymore.Maybe he never really did.I shook that thought out of my head because I could just have been overreacting. And then I asked myself, if he had called, would I have picked up? Would I have heard him out? That, I wasn't sure of.

Chapter 35"Grace, your date is here!" I heard Chris yell from the living room.I took one last glance at myself as I heard Kyle and Chris having a conversation. I was dressed in a tight long sleeved baby pink top and dark blue skinny jeans. I had my favorite black boots on and a long black coat over the pink top. My hair was let down in loose curls and I had worn a mild casual makeup on my face.I took a deep breath and said to myself, "You've got this."I placed my phone, mascara and lipstick in my purse and walked out of my room and into the living room.Kyle and Chris ended their conversation immediately they spotted me.Kyle smiled at me as I walked over to him, "You look pretty.""Thank you." I smiled as he kissed my cheek. "You look good too."Kyle was dressed in a long sleeved blue-black button up shirt and black jea

Chapter 36Hanging out with Kyle these past few days has been wonderful. We had both learned more about each other. Kyle was also very nice, sweet and had an amazing sense of humor. He lovedlistening to music and his favorite genre was hip hop, he liked the way of the African American culture and strongly disliked racism. His favorite color was red and he wasn't a natural blonde; he dyed it when he was 14.It was nice learning more about Kyle.But, did I like him in that way? Did I see him as anything more than a friend?That, I didn't know.But, we learn to walk before we run, right?Kyle and I had just finished for the day and he insisted he walked me to my ride. He held my hand in his, intertwining our fingers and although it felt weird to have them like that, I left it there because I knew I would get used to the feeling in only a matter of time.
How We End Chapter 37
Chapter 37Just as promised, the party was a small one. The house wasn't void of a lot of people entirely but it wasn't packed either. It had this comfortable and snug aura. But that didn't mean that there wasn't any alcohol, drugs, loud music and sluts. All of those were present, trust me.By the time Kyle and I arrived at the party, there were only a little number of people. But as time passed by, more people arrived.Chris and Dean hadn't come yet.Kyle led me to the dining, where a circle of friends stood."Hey guys!" Kyle chirped.They all returned his greeting with smiles on their faces.A taller guy was the first to notice me. He smiled widely at me and stood in front of me, "You must be Grace!""That I am." I said, offering a polite smile."It's so nice to finally meet you." He be

Chapter 38It was exhilarating, every single second of it.His hands cupped my face gently, caressing my skin tenderly. I pressed my body closer to his as I wrapped my hands around his neck, one going up his neck and into his soft hair. Our lips moved slowly, leisurely, like we were savoring these sweet moments with our lips together.I felt Dean's tongue nibble on my bottom lip and I parted my lips slightly, granting him entrance. And immediately our tongues met one another's, the slow and leisure movement didn't feel enough anymore.My insides felt like jelly as our tongues danced with one another, tasting him, feeling him, every little wonder of his mouth. I let out a soft moan when his hands went down to grasp my waist, his fingers on my bare skin, making them feel like they were on fire.Dean placed his hands under my thighs and lifted me off the
