Trinity's POV:

"Hey babe, um Grace is coming over." I shouted to Wayne. "Ok sounds good." He replied.
"If you don't mind me asking, uh why...is she coming over?" " I don't really know but she was sobbing so it has be bad." "Oh I'm sorry if you want I could go." "No you don't have to."

"Well if you want-"
He stopped when we heard a knock on my door. I opened the door and saw a sobbing Grace. "Honey what happened? Why are you crying?"
"Well um y-you remember that g-guy I was seeing, Garrett?" "Yes...what did he do?" "Well he just um....." "Spit it out!" "He just raped me!" She started balling and Wayne came out of my room only wearing his shorts that he had left here. "Hey babe can we- woah what's wrong Grace?" He then went over to her and hugged her. I leaned over to and whispered to him what happened. He got this "I'm going to fucking kick his ass" look on his face. I don't blame him either. Wayne started to head for the door and Grace suddenly stopped him. He turned around and said, " I'm going to kick ass, let go of me." Grace looked at us and said, "please don't do this I mean I know he deserves it but I don't want you or Trinity to wind up killing him and going to jail then I'll truly be alone."
Wayne looked her with confusion in his eyes, "what are you talking about." See Wayne, Grace, and I have been friends for a while but Wayne didn't know Grace's story like I did. Grace looked at me and asked, " should I tell him?" I nodded my head.

She took a deep breath and said," OK, well um my parents got divorced after i was born and my dad always blames their divorce on me and i would visit my dad every other weekend and when I was 10 my dad started to drink a lot and then began beating me and one night he raped me...I went back to my mom's house and told her about it and she smacked me for 'making up stories' and then a few years past and my mom married Pete yeah you remember him and he sexually asault me and abuse me and rape me then I'd tell my mom and she would say that I probably deserved it. Later I found out my mom was doing drugs and when I turned 16 my mother said she had had it and kicked me out she said that she was doesn't want anything to do with me....and that's why I moved in with Trinity and her family not because my family wanted to move and they said I could stay with her. Then once we graduated I went to college and bought my own apartment and now I live by myself."
Hearing Grace tell that story again was really hard and now she was crying harder. That's when I realized that Grace's guy best friend Harry needed to know. "I will be right back" I said to them. "Ok". I went to my room and started to text Harry because he has to know because he loves her and has for a while now.Grace has been avoiding him ever since she realized that she's in love with him that's why she's been dating other guys to get him off her mind. Harry just thinks she's mad at him.

Me- hey
H- hey what's up
T- oh nothing but I think you should come over and comfort Grace
H- why what happened?!?!?!
T- well you remember that guy she was dating? Yeah he um uh raped her
H- what I'm going to kill him!!!!!
T- no what you are going to do is come over here and tell her how you feel about her and how you've felt that way for 3 years now!!!!!
H- but what if she doesn't feel the same way?
T- you'll never know if you don't ask!
H- ok I'll be there in 10 minutes

I come out of my room and see Wayne and Grace sitting on the couch watching a movie. I can tell Grace is trying to stop crying. "Hey sorry I took so long"
"Its fine babe." Wayne said. I went over and sat next to Grace and hugged her. She stopped crying eventually and 15 minutes later someone knocked on the door. Oh cool Harry is here. I opened the door and there Harry was he pushed passed me and walked right over to Grace and pulled her into a hug. "Harry what are you doing here? Not that I'm not happy to see you, its just I didn't know know were coming over."
"Trinity told me and I know what happened I know everything. Listen I need to talk to you ok?"

Grace's POV:

I was so scared. I didn't know what Harry could possibly want to talk to me about. I love him so much and not just because he's my best friend. I want him to be my boyfriend. He is the most amazing guy I've ever met. I really do love him. My train of thoughts were interuppted by Harry crashing his lips to mine and instinctively I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him back. We pull away from the kiss realizing that Trinity and Wayne is staring at us in awe.

Harry looked at them and then back at me and said, "can we talk somewhere a little more private?" I looked at Trinity and she said," oh um you can talk in my room its over there." We then went into the room and closed the door I looked at Harry and said," um sooo...."
"Look I'm just going to cut to the chase....I like you and I've liked you for like three years now." I was so shocked what do I say? "I like you too Harry. I actually love you."
He got a really shocked look on his face. I can't tell if he liked that I said I love him or-
"I love you too."
"Does this mean you would want to be my boyfriend?" I asked awkwardly.
"Uh yeah I would love to be your boyfriend!" I excitedly jumped into his arms and kissed him at that moment I completely forgot how shitty my life was.
"We should probably go out there now before they think we like had sex or something." Harry said once we pulled away from the kiss. "Yeah ok" we walk out of the room and I feel my turning red.

Trinity's POV:

Grace and Harry come out of my room and the first thing I notice is how red Grace's face is so something really good happened. "So what happened?" I ask knowing something happened.

"Oh um nothing much but Harry is my new super awesome boyfriend." She squealed.

I am so happy for her they have loved each other for so long now. Wait they remind me of.....oh shit.
