- Chance -

I roll over on my side to look over at my clock. I look over to see it was 11 o'clock. It was Sunday morning and I had missed going to church. So, with my luck, I was home alone for the next hour and a half.

I grab my crutches and walk over to my vanity. I look myself in the mirror and put my hair up into a bun. I still looked like a complete mess, but it'll do.

I walk into the kitchen to make myself some breakfast. Surely nothing better than pancakes, eggs, and hash browns for a Sunday morning. I was truly happy that I learned to cook at a younger age. This breakfast truly beats cereal.

As soon as I set my plate on the kitchen table, I hear the doorbell ring. I look through the kitchen window to see who was here. To my surprise, it was Ethan, Grayson, and Belinda. What could they possibly be doing here on a Sunday morning?

I go to answer the door and see what these guys wanted.

"Good morning, Chance!" Belinda cheers and hugs me.

"Good morning," I reassuringly smile, "Not to be rude, but what are you guys doing here?"

"We wanted to see your beautiful face." Ethan smirks.

"Are you making fun of me since I look like a mess right now?" I laugh.

"I mean, you got little hairs straying everywhere and you got some makeup smudges, so yeah, kind of." Ethan laughs.

I suddenly felt kind of hurt by that and my mood instantly changed. It didn't hurt like I was going to cry, it was more of being surprised Ethan even said that.

Immediately, Ethan pulled me into a hug.

"Chance, I'm kidding! I'm not making fun of you. You truly are beautiful no matter how you look." Ethan reassures me as he rubs his hand up and down my back.

Just Ethan doing this gesture made me feel really comfortable.

Ethan wraps his arm around my shoulders and I tried putting my arm behind his back, but these crutches were getting in the way.

"Do you guys want to come inside and have some breakfast with me? I just got done making pancakes, eggs, and hash browns." I offer everyone.

"Oh, you're offering food? Don't mind if I do." Grayson says walking into my house.

Ethan, Belinda, and I start laughing as we hear Grayson in the kitchen.

We all walk into the kitchen so we can eat.

Grayson had made a plate for Belinda and himself.

"Ethan, do you want me to make you a plate?" I ask.

"Chance, come sit down! You're on crutches, I can do it myself." Ethan moves me toward the kitchen table.

I cock an eyebrow, "I can do it, too. I'm not helpless." I walk more toward the table and sit down to eat.

"I never said you were helpless, but c'mon, you need to rest yourself every once in awhile." Ethan says.

"Chance, just listen to him. I know you're both stubborn and always want your way, but you both need a day of just getting along." Grayson whispers over to me.

I heavily sigh because I know Grayson is right.

Ethan finally sits down and we finally start to eat. All of breakfast was spent of us just joking around and laughing. I'm quite happy that these guys decided to show up unexpectedly.

After everyone is done eating, Belinda grabs everyones plates and goes to wash them.

"Belinda, you don't have to wash those." I say.
