Grace and Hope: Bambino

Grace's POV

After the concert Cana drove us all back to the hotel. Charlie in the front with Cana. Leo and me in the back. "I'm the champion at hide and seek" I chanted rubbing my victory in his face. He had just admitted I won. "We get it" he said annoyed. "Don't be grumpy just because I'm better" I taunt. Yea I really am I four year old. "Gracie. Play nice." Cana warned. "Let her have her fun. He probably deserves it"Charlie joined in on the conversation. "Thank you! Charlie I'm starting to like you a lot more than Cana" I state. "Grace A-"Cana started but I cut her of before she could say my whole name. She acts like my mom sometimes,I swear. "Okay! Okay! I'm sorry Leo... but I am the hide and seek champ" I say and give Leo a hug. I felt something, but as always, I ignored it. But I saw Leo's eyes grow wide and shiver. I broke away, confused  as hell. Was he in shock that I hugged him. Whatever it doesn't matter.
Time skip until at the hotel...
We were on the balcony part of the hotel that was right outside our rooms. We figured out we were neighbors. "Are you guys doing anything tomorrow?" Cana asked. "No. We went to the studio today so we have a free day tomorrow" Leo responded. "Cool than, what-ya say maybe we can all hang out tomorrow and go to the pool?" I say in my Australian accent. "Sounds great. And then we can go to the amusement park in the evening!" Charlie said. "Yea sounds great! We will meet you at the pool in the morning around 11:30ish." Cana said. "Ok" the boys say on sink. "We'll tell our parents tonight and ask if it's ok" Leo said. I was silent. Of course their parents came with them. Their parents care about them. My smile faded but I tried not to show anything but happiness. It was hard and I wondered how Cana's smile never left her face. "Alright text us what your parents say."Cana said. Cana had gotten the boys numbers and put us in a group chat. "Yea." I said but I trailed off.
"Well... Good night" I said quickly trying to avoid something awkward and walked into Cana and l's room. Cana came in behind me after she said goodbye. When we were inside Cana asked me " What was that about?" She said it on a firm but kind tone. "I call first shower" was all I said. I had gotten out of the shower, put on my pajamas, put my hair in a braid, and checked my phone. 
The boys had answered the group chat.
Leo🕵:we can go
Charlie✨:yea
Cana🎬:ok
Me: alright
(A/N that is the text messages in the group chat. The names and emojis are the contacts on Grace's phone)
After that I video chatted my friends Jacob, Julia, Gabriel, Catherine, and Noah. There was a blizzard in Australia and it just so happened Julia and Gabriel got snowed in at their church and Catherine and Noah got snowed in at Cat's house. We chatted until 11:00ish fit me. Then I went to bed.
Another time skip tail' morning caused I'm lazy
I woke up the next morning to my wierd  sound. "Ah! It's the Purge?! I gotta go steal Chipotle!!" I scream(A/N if any one knows where that's from comment and I will congratulate you). I hear Cana in the kitchen. "No Gracie. Everything is ok and I'm ordered us breakfast. It's here." "Oh cool. Food." I said cheerfully waltzing into the kitchen. "I can try to keep Gracie calm but I'm not sure if I can stop Gracie from stealing Chipotle" said Cana. We ate breakfast and then changed into out bathing suits. I wore a navy blue bikini with white poka dots and a black lace cover up. Cana wore a pink bikini with black poka dots and a blue cover up that just looked like a shawl. Cana had left before me because unlike me she got up this morning and got dressed before breakfast. I went with Cana outside by the door and saw Charlie come out to. They walked to the pool together while I got dressed. When I was running to the pool like a child I heard foot steps behind me. I quickly stopped and turned to see. It was Leo. He ran into me but in our mid fall he had shifted his weight and pulled me up a little bit so he fell on the floor and I fell on top of him. Our lips almost touched. "We have to stop saying hi to each other like this" I say. "Yea I don't know if I can take this many injuries." He replied. "Excuse you but you're not the only one getting hurt."I say back. "Well I get hurt more then you" he said. Then I  realize the position we were in. Awkward. I blushed from embarrassment. I got up and helped him up after dismissing his comment with a "whatever". I pick up one of the two water guns that were scattered on the floor. He got the other gun, "I was gonna squirt everyone one when I got to the pool." He explained. I smirked evilly. "Let's go" I said. He smirked back. We ran to the pool and shot Cana and Charlie with water. They screamed and it was hilarious. They tried to push us in the pool but we moved out of treaty so they fell in instead. I pushed Leo in and then he pulled me in with him. We had so much fun. We even tried to have a game of volleyball ball against their moms who came later on. Key word: tried. We had fun though, it made me want my mom back even though I could never fotgive her for leaving us.

But maybe I can get my dad back... Someday
