The weeks since the house fire had been pretty quiet, but you still felt unsettled.

The police hadn't found anything further, so had classed the house as safe again. But you still had a bad feeling.

It was coming up to your 19th birthday, which meant you and Gracie would be getting married soon for real this time. Well, that's if the plan was still the same.

"Hey, let's go away for your birthday" Gracie said, her eyes focused on a book she was reading.

You hummed to her suggestion as you cut the sandwich you were making in half.

"Like where? Wasn't last years vocation a complete failure" you laughed dryly.

Gracie noticed your unsure tone and put her book down before walking over to you.

"I mean yes...you got a DUI, and I had to bail you out of jail. And your boy best friend-stalker tried to hit you up, and then your crazy ass ex girlfriend joined the party. But besides that it was pretty good" the brunette said, smiling as you rolled your eyes.

"Not helping"

"Y/n come on. It's your birthday we need to go away and celebrate" Gracie said.

"We could celebrate here?"

"Absolutely not. We're going away and we're going to have fun this time"

"But-"

"No but's, pack your suitcase I'm booking a flight right now to Spain" the girl said, opening her phone.

You huffed in annoyance, but knew this is what you really wanted. Besides Portugal, you had always loved Spain.

"Besides Olivia and Conan, who do you want to come this time?" Gracie asked as she booked the flights.

You hesitated, wanting to say Charlton and Tate. But had no idea how to get Gracie to agree to the boy coming.

"Charlton and Tate" you mumbled casually, making the girl look up from her phone.

"First one no, second one yes" the brunette smiled like she wasn't going to argue.

"Gracie they are basically dating. Plus me and Charlton are friends he's allowed to come" you argued lightly.

The girl sighed, putting the phone down.

"I know you're friends. But him staying in a villa with us for 2 weeks makes me slightly uncomfortable"

You rolled your eyes, but this made the girl mad.

"He's your ex y/n and after all that shit that happened it's going to take some time getting used to it, okay?"

Your expression softened, understanding Gracie's point of view. She had been the one comforting you during that awful period after all.

"I get that" you said. Seeing Gracie's face slightly light up.

You picked up your sandwich and started eating it. You noticed the brunette was still looking at you intently.

"If you keep looking at me like that I might have to throw up" you fake gagged.

"I can't help being in love with you can I" the brunette shrugged in defense as your face went bright red.

"I hate you sometimes" you joked, rolling your eyes again.

"The things you said to me yesterday kinda go against that"

"Oh god Gracie go back to your book" you said going even more red as you avoided her stare.

"I'd much rather spend time with you than read a lousy book" the girl replied.

"You're being so sappy I'm going to break up with you"

"You wouldn't dare"

"Bet?"

"Bet baby"
