By the end of the day, I was beyond exhausted and couldn't wait to go home and relax, but I knew that would be almost impossible when Daisy Hart was my best friend and insisted that we do something for my birthday.

It was my birthday and not even I was excited for it. It was a reminder that I was born, by mistake and that was the day that my parents looked at me for the first time, and they didn't want me.

I was always told that it wasn't like that. That maybe even if you didn't want the baby, you would love it the minute they come out. It was the complete opposite for my parents.

Daisy knew I didn't like to celebrate on that day, so she reserves the day after, and she also makes sure that she does something special for me the day that her parents took me in.

And I liked that.

That day was a day that I felt loved for the first time in my life.

But it was sweet of them to think of me on both occasions.

Christmas was also around the corner. I normally hate Christmas because I was alone on the street, no presents, no tree, no family. Now? I loved it, and I learned to love the traditions that my new family had made for our little family.

I got lots of presents when I was with them, I still do and I tell them all the time that it's not necessary. But now that I'm an adult, I can repay them for all that they have done for me.

I shake out of my thoughts when I enter my trailer and see my best friend waiting for me. I told her that we could go out for an early dinner tonight, that's when I would tell her about the party.

I had avoided thinking about it, nonetheless talking about it. I haven't seen him at all. I was nervous too, because I was scared that he was going to tell me off, tell me that he made a mistake by letting me sleep in the same bed as him, I couldn't take that yet. It was too fresh.

That's why I was grateful that these past couple weeks I hadn't seen him as much. We weren't on screen together till later, so I assumed he came in for his personal scenes when I was already away in my trailer.

My mind still runs through that might very vividly. The way his hands felt on my body, in the best way, even if it wasn't real. The way my heart races when I could see him so clearly when he was asleep... he was beautiful and it was like he knew it too well.

Even in his sleep he didn't have a single flaw.

"Gracie?" I hear Daisy calling me and I look in the mirror back at her. "We still on for the night?" I nod with a bit of hesitation which she doesn't miss. She kisses my cheek and finishes taking off my makeup.

"I have to drop off a paper to Tanner before we go so I can meet you at your apartment and we can take one car." I hum in agreement.

We go our separate ways when she heads to Tanner and I go to my car. I feel eyes on me, hard, heavy eyes. I turn around to see Easton looking at me, when our eyes collide, we both stiffen and freeze.
