Y/N lied. She actually had time for coffee. She just didn't want to meet up with Gracie Abrams again this soon. Part of her was scared to fuck up, she hasn't even started working for her yet, she didn't want to accidentally say the wrong thing and get herself hired already. Another part of her... was also scared. Scared of how quickly attached she was getting.

I mean, how ridiculous was it? She had only known Gracie Abrams for three days. They quite literally didn't know anything about each other. They knew nothing about each other except for the things they'd never spoken out loud before. She couldn't believe she opened up to a stranger like that. She couldn't believe she crashed at a stranger's place for the night like that.

Neither could her mother.

Normally, Y/N would at least have a more stable job that might have some space for her to sleep. Let it be in the back office of the bar, or some booth in the fast food place. She was currently but a delivery driver, on a bicycle. Needless to say, she screamed Y/N's ears off when she finally arrived home.

It was the most Y/N had ever felt cared for by her mother.

The contract also made the elder Y/L/N quite happy. She didn't comment much on it, neither was Y/N expecting her to, ro be honest. They completely brushed over their fight, or the fact that they wouldn't see each other all that often anymore due to Y/N's new job. Maybe it was better for them this way.

At least that served as enough of a distraction yesterday. Today was a new day. Meaning Gracie Abrams owed her another coffee. It made her both excited and anxious.

Ever since she left her apartment two days ago, they haven't spoken. They could text each other, they just didn't. Y/N's overthinking was telling her that the singer had already gotten bored of her and found some new entertainment over the weekend. She wouldn't have blamed her for that. They've already made it way further than she would've expected, she should be grateful to stay as employer-employee and keep it at that.

Her job technically started tomorrow. She couldn't help her curiosity and Googled Gracie to do some prior research.

She was not expecting the girl to be currently trending number three on Twitter though.

She clicked on the first video that popped up. The guy she recognised as the one she saw Gracie with on the first day, filled the screen. It seemed to be an interview on a red carpet for some movie premiere.

"George! George! One last question, how are things between you and Gracie?"

The actor forced a polite smile at the camera and pushed the microphone out of his face. "Sorry, no comments."

The short clip of the interview was met with a lot of comments and tweets from fans. Most of them were wondering about their relationship while others were celebrating the couple for seemingly having broken up.
