Geoff's Pov

As soon as I smell the soup, all I can think about is how amazing it smelled. It was like heaven on Earth. So I told Judy that it smelled good better. I thought that it was her that made it. But to my surprise, Judy told me that it was Grace that made it. I asked if she really made it, and she said that she did. I know that it was going to be amazing since Grace made it, so I told her that I couldn't wait to try it. I really can't, but then Judy sparks the talk of who was going first, and eventually, Grace and Judy gave in and got their plates first. Jeff and I waited until they got seated before we went to get ours. Jeff and I make sure that we sit on either side of Grace and start eating before Jeff goes and gets Grace a bottle of water. And then we start talking about how good the soup was. Judy offers to give some of the leftovers to us since I wanted to eat some more as leftovers. 

But then the mention of church liking it came up, and it was practically agreed that we were to take some to church tonight, so Jeff gets up and starts to make Jim a plate. Then Jim comes in and mentions the smell of the soup. And just like me, he thought that Judy made it, but Judy tells him that Grace made it. Jim turns to Grace and says something about Grace being able to cook. Grace returns with it being just poison, and Jeff brought up that we were going to take it to church. Jim says that he enjoys the idea of poisoning the entire church. Man, the bond between the 2 of them is undeniable. Grace is lucky to have someone like him to teach her what a man is supposed to look like. But Jim tries it and is impressed by it like everyone else here. 

Jim asks if Grace has been practicing the guitar, and she says that she has had every day except for the past month. I am surprised. Not only can the girl sing, but she can play the guitar as well. I am convinced that this girl can do everything. I had to say something to them about Grace's singing voice, but I made her even more embarrassed. I felt sorry but she needed to show them about it. Grace tries getting out of it, but Jim asks her to follow him downstairs so she does. I hear them talking, but I can't figure out what they were saying. Soon, I hear them singing, and I can hear Grace singing. She sounded amazing. I am not used to hearing this higher range from her. All I heard was her lower register.

Jeff says," Hey Geoff, is this really her voice? I am extremely curious."

I say," Yes. But I can't believe that she has that upper range."

Jeff asks," Why?"

I say," Because she only showed me her lower range."

Jeff says," Oh. She is amazing."

I say," Yeah."

Once the singing stopped, Jeff went downstairs, and I heard talking once more. Then everyone starts to come upstairs. I see Grace and walk up to her to kiss and tell her that she was amazing. Judy tells Jim that it was going on 6 o clock if he was going to go up to the church. Judy says that since Grace is going, she assumes that everyone else is going, but I tell her that I was going to stay. Even though I wanted to be with Grace, I didn't want Judy to be alone. After hearing that, Judy seems to be a bit relieved to have heard me say that. Jim hands some papers to Grace and tells her to wait for him in the truck so she says goodbye to Judy and myself before kissing me. She walks off with Jeff, and I watch as she walks. Just how her body moves was enough to get me aroused. I know that I shouldn't be thinking those thoughts now that I am on my way to being a Christian, but still, Grace is an addiction that I can't let go of. Will God forgive me for my actions? 

How can everyone here be so perfect?

Jim walks up and says," Okay. I am going to go now. I will see you later."

Judy and I say," Okay. Bye."

Jim leaves, and Judy looks at me.

She says," Okay. Jim seems to trust you since he didn't stare at you while we were eating, so I guess I don't need to ask about anything since Jim will tell me of your conversation. But if there is anything that I need to know before you get serious with Grace, you need to tell me now."
