Chapter 7

3rd Person P.O.V

It was now 6 in the morning, Grace got about 3 hours of sleep and that's the best she's going to get. She's now sitting with the rest of the BAU team and her uncle as they talk about what to do "Look I get it but I can't reschedule this, it's already sold out. Plus tomorrow I have the dance comp" Grace explained to them

They want to keep her and Ethan here but Grace already made plans to get Ethan to safety "What about Ethan?" Emily asked, Grace nods and turns to her uncle "You remember I told you Ethan already met his soul mate Ocean Blackburn?" Ben nods his head "Her parents River and Ben found out what happened, their going down to their home by the beach for 2 weeks and they want to take Ethan. I agreed, they will be here soon" 

Ben looks at his niece seeing the look in her eyes "Fine Ethan will go with the Blackburn's but what about you? Are you really going to preform today?" Aaron, Derek and Spencer had to bit their tongues they didn't want Grace out of their sight "I have to Ben! This can't be pushed back" 

Ben sighed "Fine, but your not going alone, I will be there so will the team" he points to the BAU team who nodded in agreement, Grace rolled her eyes "Fine, now I need to get Ethan packed, he still has clothes here right?" Ben only points to his office. Grace walks away to pack a bag for 2 week 

"Is she really going to do this?" Emily asked Ben

"If it was just her the concert will effect then no. She would cancel it but Amanda, Kelly, Phoebe, Emmy, Luke and Scott are going to be her backup dancers. She called scouts out to watch them dance hoping to help them get scholarships to good colleges, she doesn't want to risk their future if the cancels" 

Derek bits his lip, he always loved when people had a good heart but from what he'd heard about Grace and seen, she really has a heart of gold. He only hopes they can talk

"Hello" they turned to see a teenager around Grace age holding hands with a little girl around 6 "Hi, how can I help you?" Ben asked. The woman smiled at him pushing her glasses up her nose "I'm looking for Grace and Ethan. Ethan is going on a trip with me and my family"

"Yes you must be River" Ben shook her hand "Yep and this is Ocean" Ocean smiled at everyone before turning around when she heard her name being called. Ethan ran towards his soulmate with a smile before hugging her tightly "River, thank you for take him" Grace whispers as the two hug

"It's no problem, I would love to get know Ethan more" Grace smiled handing her Ethan bag "Okay, Ethan" Grace crouches down in front of her son "You will be good for River and Ben alright? Anything they say goes and watch out for large waves you still can't swim to well" Ethan nodded giving his mom a big hug 

Ocean grabs his hand and they run out to the car where Ben and Ocean little sister is waiting, "Be safe River" Grace hugs her one more time before River leaves

~Time skip~

It's now 7 at night, for the last 13 hours Grace, Amanda, Scott, Kelly, Phoebe, Emmy and Luke have been practicing for the concert. Once the girls saw her soul marks are no longer grey they started jumping up and down in joy saying the couldn't wait to meet the guys who will be her boyfriends soon 

Scott and Luke on the other hand played the over protective brother cards and said they would have to threaten the guys before they even went on one date "You guys, their FBI agents" Grace told them as she put on her jacket for the first song "Oh" the girls laughed as Luke and Scott paled 

"Come on guys, it's about to start" Grace and the others ran out the room and went to the stage "Hey everyone how it's going!" Grace yelled into her mic making the fans scream and cheering "So how about we get this concert started!" Grace gave a thumbs up to the person who was controlling  the music 

Grace started the song of softy before the beat picked up and her family got on stage and started dancing, in the crowd she could see some of the scouts paying attention to her friends and smiled brightly 

"Who wants another one!" The crowd went wild chanting 'another one! another one!' over and over again 

Grace could see some people crying and a lot of other people signing along. This is what she lives for, having people relate to her songs. Having her songs help people who can't express their emotions and need a outlet 

"Alright! Alright! I have a surprise for you guys" the crowd quieted down "First I need to ask how many of you guys and girls been SA? It's alright this is a safe place" a lot of girls and guys raised their hands, people next to them hugged them or gave them smiles "Alright this song I am going to sing is from my new albumen that hasn't been released yet. This song goes out to everyone who's been SA" the crowd cheered    

As Grace was singing she kneeled down lifting up the chin or a girl a year or two younger than her when she said 'so I had to tell myself that I am not the one to blame' as the girl was crying. She noticing she was one of the girls who raised her hand to being SA 

"Sing it with me" she told her, both of them sung "I am not the one to blame" together before Grace kissed her head and stood up, her family danced behind her but she could see the smiles they gave her 

Behind the stage Spencer, Derek and Aaron where listening to her sing and watching out for Rose "She's been through a lot" Derek sighed looking at their mate singing on stage "Yeah, we just have to show her we can help protect her" Spencer told him as all three watched Grace dance with her family
