Semua Bab How We End: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Chapter 21It was another amazing holiday in the year.Halloween.Dean invited Chris and me to a Halloween party his friend, Ethan, was throwing and I thought, why the hell not?Halloween was one of my favorite holidays.The first being Christmas.I ordered my costume two days ago and it came in this morning. It was around 7 PM and I was in my room getting ready."Grace? Are you ready?!" I heard Chris shout from the living room."In a minute!" I shouted back.I walked into my bathroom and put on my costume. It was really hard to put on and I spent over 10 minutes wearing it all. Once I was done getting ready, I glanced at myself in my full length mirror and I liked the woman staring back at me.The makeup I had on was pretty much and it re

Chapter 23{ D E A N }Last night, I slept.For the first time in a long time, I slept.I slept peacefully with nothing haunting my dreams. I didn't have that same nightmare, I didn't see the same heartwrenching incident replay over and over in my mind, like I was the one dying. I didn't wake up shaking and sweating. I didn't have to deprive myself of sleep because of the fear of the nightmares. I didn't have to.Because last night, I dreamt of something different, someone different. Someone that makes me happy.Grace.But when I woke up, she was gone.I sat up straight on the bed and rubbed my temples.Maybe she was in the bathroom."Grace?" I called out for her but there was no

Chapter 25"Grace!" Christian called out for me, honking his car."I'm coming, I'm coming!" I said as I locked the front door and hurried into Chris' car."You look like shit." He said as he started driving."Gee, thanks." I rolled my eyes and zipped up my bag.I arrived home late yesterday night and after that, I still wasn't able to get any sleep. I woke up really late this morning and I was a mess, trying to sort myself fast enough."So, how did yesterday go?" Chris asked."It sucked that you weren't there though, but it was my best birthday yet." I said with a smile. "Dean took us to Sunnyvale and I saw so many beautiful places."Chris smiled, "Of course it was the best birthday."I looked at him."Look at how happy you look just talking about the day you had with Dean, your smile is literally b

Chapter 27I had exited my COMPLIT 121 poetry class and I had only one class left for the day. But it wasn't until the next two hours and I was already feeling exhausted.School is out for my life, I swear.Chris was still in class and judging by Dean's schedule, he would be dismissed from class in any minute. With a small smile on my face, I adjusted my bag on my back, clutching onto the strap and began walking towards Dean's department.By the time I got there, there were several people loitered around the front of the building. My eyes searched for Dean and as they landed on him, my heartbeat seemed to quicken its pace. Dean wasn't alone though, he was speaking to a girl who had her back faced to me but I didn't really care about her, my eyes were fixed on Dean as I walked over to him."Hi Dean." I chirped as I stopped in front of him.Dean seemed taken aback

Chapter 29Midterms had come and gone.Thank freaking god.When I got back from school yesterday, I kicked off my shoes, went straight to my room and collapsed on my bed, not even bothering to get out of my clothes. Midterms rendered me stressed to my very bones, studying had eaten up all of my time and I was barely getting any sleep because of it.This morning, I woke up to see that it was around 11:00 AM. I felt better and well rested as I took my clothes off, brushed, showered and changed into a big grey sweater that ended mid-thigh. I also had knee high socks to protect my feet from the cold.The thought of going home soon for thanksgiving put a smile on my face.I walked out of my room and started to hear voices and aggressive TV sounds coming from the living room. I made my way into the living room to see Chris and Dean seated on the couch, co
