*Grace's bedroom*

The first thing that happened when we got to my bedroom and shut the door was, well lets just say I wasn't expecting it.

"You told him why you left?" Cindy asked.

"He's the only person, besides you're family back home that knows why you left," Brooke said.

"He asked me why I left, ok?" Grace said.

"We've all asked before, but all you told us was that it was none of our business" said Emma.

*Meanwhile back in the kitchen*

"Dude, she told you why she left?" Noah asked.

"Yeah, because I asked her why," Finnley calmly said.

"Well we've all asked her, and you're the only one that she told besides her parents" Tommy and the other guys said in harmony.

After ten minutes of getting a "serious talking" to, all I wanted to do was sleep. Mostly because I've been up since three, and it's now almost nine thirty. I'm not even sure what they were saying, because I was getting side tracked by the randomest things I would notice in my room. I wonder how the "guy" talk went.

I guess they finished up earlier than us girls because when we walked out of my bedroom the guys were gone, well Tommy and Noah were gone, Finnley was sitting on my couch, on his phone. I wanted to ask him how his E.T.A.C went, but I didn't. But guys do have a different way of looking at things, things being girls and talking to girls.

"Hey"

"Hey whatcha' doing?"

"Oh, nothing. Just social media."

"Cool, hungry?"

"Nah, i'm good thanks"

"Ok"

Yeah, I totally forgot that Emma, Cindy, and Brooke, was standing behind me.

"Oh, hey Grace do you want to see a movie with us? Continue the birthday celebration?" Emma asked.

"Nah, i'm good."

"Ya sure?"

"Yeah i'm sure......oh shoot work!"

"What?"

"It's nine thirty and i'm not at work. I'm two and half hours late for work."

"Just call in sick, and if they ask why you're now just calling in, just say you just woke up,"

"Thanks, but I don't think they'll believe me, since I'm not sick,"

"Hang your head over the side of your bed,"

"I don't know, are you sure it'll work"

"Yes, now we got to go if we want to make the movie,"

"Ok, i'll text you guys in a few hours or so if you're not back about what to do about lunch,"

"Ok, cool,"

Once they left it was kind of awkward, with just Finnley and myself, alone in a room together.

"So, how was the "girl talk"?"

"It was ok. I don't even recall what they were saying'

"Cool"

"Cool, so how was your talk?"

"Same"

"Cool, do you want to watch something on tv?"

"Nah, i'm good"

"Ok, stop it please"

"Stop what?"

"Stop saying, you're good. I know you aren't."

"I'm good, and even if I wasnt how would you know"

"You're not good, and because of our conversation this morning while getting breakfast."

"How?"

"How what?"

"How did you know?"

"Because one, I know you, I know what you said this morning, and now, I don't know if we still are, but we were once very close friends."

"Ok, confusing"

"Anyway"

"So....um..."

"Um what"

"I.....I.....love you" Finnley said out of the blue.

"Wha.....what now?" Grace asks in shock.

"I love you" He repeated.

What Grace didn't know was that Noah and Tommy were hiding in the hall coat closet.

"Tommy, Tommy, did you just hear what Finnley said?" Noah whispered.

"Yes, I have ears, and OMG" Tommy whispered.
