Grace
I don’t know how we were able to get through dinner, but we did and we even managed to say a proper goodbye to Daniel’s family. And then there was the fact that Daniel’s left cheek was smeared with lipstick, which his cousin and brothers teased him about mercilessly. I have to admit though, I wasn’t completely innocent when I’d kissed his cheeks, but he’d made it worse when he’d shifted his face to kiss my lips. Kevin seemed more smug than the others since he now something scandalous to hold against his cousin, unfortunately, it wasn’t scandalous enough.
“There ain’t gonna be any monkey business in my house!” George had said gruffly but his eyes had twinkled with laughter.
We’d then bid goodbye to everyone and had set out on our way back home. Halfway through the ride, Daniel had informed me it’d be his house we’d be going to because it had a bigger bed and

GraceThe obnoxious sound of my cell phone going off woke me up early the next morning.I groaned and reached for my bedside table but all I could feel was air. I let my hand drop to the bed, but another groan coming from beside me had me opening my eyes in haste and finally taking in the room I was in.Daniel must have brought me to his house after I passed out in his arms. It made me blush even thinking about having sex in his car. But also, Daniel’s voice kept reverberating in my head.And you think that make you any less intriguing?I turned carefully to find Daniel’s face at the crook of my neck and one of his hands thrown over my waist while the other was under my head. Shit! It must be limp by now! I rose cautiously from the bed, careful not to wake him up and got off the bed by lifting his arm and placing my pillow under it so he would think that he was still holding onto me.I found myself dress

GraceI woke up with a start to find my phone ringing on the bedside table.I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and looked at my clock to find it was 3.39 am. The lights were off in my apartment and I’d closed off all windows except one so the air could circulate and keep the room cool. It was already mid November; winter was just around the corner.I reached over to grab my phone from the bedside table bedside table and answered it without looking at the screen. “Hello.” I yawned.“Sorry for waking you up. I just had to come see you.”I shot up in bed. “You’re here? Now?”“Look out your balcony.”I pushed the blanket off me and stood with shaky feet. I was wide awake as I opened the balcony door and walked out into the chilly night air. Looking down over the railing, I saw the familiar mop of midnight hair leaning against the side of his silver Sedan.&ld

Grace“Chug! Chug! Chug! Chug!”The crowd went wild as two men, who looked more like teenagers than men, threw back bottles after bottles of beer while the crowd cheered them on.I saw Daniel approach from the corner of my eyes and the crowd parted like the sea upon feeling his presence and then I watched him ‘talk’ to the two boys, who seemed angry at first at being interrupted, but as soon as they saw Daniel’s face, both of them became exceptionally pale while the crowd dispersed from around the bar counter to find other ways of amusement.“Wow, that was quick,” Ken looked around at the people who had stood around us a few seconds ago but were now busy performing on the dance floor. “That kinda had a high school fight written all over it.”“Tell me about it,” I shook my head as Zach the bouncer picked them up with a grip on their collar and went to throw them out o

GraceI wiped the blood away from Daniel’s hand with a cotton swab and placed the stained swab into a disposable plastic bag along with ten other swabs. There had been two large chunks stuck to his hand and another three smaller ones and right now, I was making a temporary bandage so Daniel doesn’t bleed out while his personal Physician arrives.“Grace, I think you should go over to your friends’ place right now. She’s hurt; she’ll need you there.” Daniel said for the nth time. We were back in Daniel’s living room, me sitting on the coffee table while Daniel sat on the couch so I could clean up his hand properly.“Daniel, shut up and let me bandage you!” I snapped at him, but my hands shook; my vision hazy with unshed tears. He’d lost a lot of blood and it wasn’t stopping. He needed to get stitches and fast. Where on Earth is his doctor?“Grace.” Daniel pl

GraceKen opened the door s soon as I’d knocked on it, her hands filled with greasy junk food and chilled bottles of beer.She sighed in relief as soon as she saw me and handed me one of the two trays she was holding, as soon as I’d shut and locked the door behind me. “Thank God you’re here! I’d ordered too much food and I was worried me and Ty would be bouncing around the house tomorrow if we were to eat this by ourselves.”“How is she?” I asked her as I placed my purse and the tray on the coffee table and took off the jacket I’d worn over the flowy orange dress I’d worn to the club today. I picked the tray back up and walked to Ken bedroom where Ty was.“She’s taking a shower.” Ken pointed towards her bathroom door where I could hear a shower running. “She’s been crying all this time, but I think it’s good for her to let it all out.

GraceIt was two thirty five in the afternoon when I got off the cab I’d hired to get back to my apartment. I’d not only stayed the night at Ken’s place, but we’d even slept in and had a huge brunch with Ty ordering for a home delivery. At the rate we’ve been having junk food since last night, I’m pretty sure I’ve gained at least five pounds.I paid the cabbie and made my way up my apartment. As I climbed up the stairs, I could hear two very familiar male voices coming from my floor. I hurried upstairs, careful not to trip on the stairs with my high heels on and my suspicions were confirmed when I saw Daniel in a white shirt that defines his muscles, paired with navy blue pants, leaning against my door, talking to a brunette haired, emerald eyed man standing opposite to him wearing a red t-shirt and black jeans.“Tory?!” I screamed before jumping into his arms.Tory was like a ma

Epilogue Grace Thursday morning, I welcomed my parents at the airport, extremely glad that I didn’t see a third figure with them. My mom had medium length blonde hair and eyes a darker shade of blue with a slender built. My father was the one with the brunette hair and green eyes that Tory and I had inherited. He stood over 6feet 4 and was almost as tall as Daniel. I felt myself shiver as I thought about what I was about to do. For now, I had my left hand tucked away safely so that neither of my parents gets to see the huge diamond on my ring finger. “Grace!” My father smiled as he pulled me into a bear hug. “I knew you’d be busy this year so we came over instead. I hope we didn’t trouble you too much.” “Absolutely not dad, you’re always welcome here.” I told him as I went over to hug mom. “Come on then, let’s head home.” “Honey, home is back in Clovefield, not Los Angeles.” My mother reminded
