GRACE STARES INTO THE MIRROR, her eyes moving over the slight scrapes that she had gotten from the glass. She clenches her jaw, seeing the tears in her eyes. Grace only blinks a few times before forcing a smile onto her face. She tilts her head, pushing the tears back down as she couldn't let it overtake her. If she did, then she would never stop getting flashbacks of her father. Because that would just be the beginning.
Hearing a knock, Grace turns her head, seeing Hayley standing there with a concerned look on her face. "Grace, is everything okay?" She asks as she moves into the room, stopping beside her. Grace only smiles at her sister as she gives her a nod.
"Everything's fine, sugar." Grace assures her but Hayley could see the blood that was on her sleeve. She immediately assumed the worst as she clenches her fist.
"No, it's not." Hayley points out as she gestures to her arm. Grace glances down, seeing the blood and she only clears her throat.
"Just a little hiccup is all." She states as she shakes her head, not wanting her sister to worry about her but of course it was inevitable.
"Did something happen?" Hayley asks as she furrows her eyebrows. Suddenly anger fills her eyes as she thinks of a possible scenario. "Did Klaus do something?" Her voice was accusatory as she knew Klaus was capable of hurting her.
"The only thing Klaus can do to me is give me an incessant headache." Grace mutters with a sigh as Klaus promised Hayley he wouldn't lay a finger on her and so far he hasn't.
"You don't have to hide your pain from me. You know this." Hayley tells her as she places a hand on her shoulder. Grace only sighs as she lifts her eyes to meet her sisters gaze. "Is it your dad?" She asks, wondering if something had triggered a flashback. But Grace didn't like telling her when she had them, because she didn't want to take the focus off of something important. And right now, Hayley and her baby were the important ones.
"My dad is not a problem, he hasn't been in a while. I just got a little homesick is all." Grace admits as it wasn't a complete lie. She did miss New York but she would rather spend fifty years in New Orleans helping Hayley, then a lifetime not knowing if she is safe in New York.
"You don't have to stay here if you don't want to." Hayley says as she didn't want the girl to feel forced just because she asked her to come. She was on better terms with the originals now. Well, she was but she didn't know how Elijah would react to the news she had for him.
