This is a filler chapter but I think you guys will enjoy what I have in store for you!

                            Thursday

Bridget and Beckett had a great week. Each morning they would go on their jog. Bridget had practice every day of the week, and Beckett stayed at Ethan's house for the week. Bridget still hadn't found a new sitter, but it sounded like Ethan loved to have Beckett over and Beckett loved to be over.

Bridget would start her days at the gym. She would lift weights and do ab exercises. She was enjoying her life for once.

Ethan spent his week watching Beckett. They made homemade pizza and cake. When the pizza and cake came out burnt and tasted gross, Ethan ordered a pizza and they ate Blue Bell ice cream.

                                 Friday

Bridget arrived at the gym. When she walked in, she passed up wall that had posters and advertisements. She saw a flyer that said, "41st Anual Masquerade Ball, March 26 at the Heymann Center."  Hmmm. That sounds like fun. A Masquerade Ball is appropriate for this season. After all, it is Mardi's Gras time. Bridget dismissed the topic and began her workout.

After two long hours at the gym, Bridget grabbed her bags and left. As she was walking in the parking lot, she saw an older woman on the side of the road looking at her flat tire. Bridget knew she had to help. She walked up to the old lady and asked if  she could use a hand. The woman smiled and shook her head. Bridget bent down to examine the tire.

"Do you mind if I call my boyfriend? He could do this better than I could." Bridget said. The woman tapped her shoulder and turned around. The woman pointed to her ear and shook her head. She's deaf. Bridget thought. Bridget smiled and pulled out her phone. She pointed to it, then the tire, trying to explain she would call someone for help. The woman nodded her head and smiled and Bridget called Ethan.

E- "hello?"
B-"hey I need your help."
E-"uh yeah?"
B-"I'm in the gym parking lot and an older lady has a flat tire. Can you come change it for her? I don't remember  how."
E-"sorry Bridge, I'm headed to work and I can't skip. I can call Grayson though. He's home and should be able to help."
B-"thank you so much. I'll see you later."
E-"bye beautiful"
B-"bye handsome."

With that the conversation ended. Bridget turned to the woman and smiled. Bridget learned the alphabet in sign language when she was in school. Bridget spelled B R I D G E T with her hands and pointed to herself. The woman smiled and spelled M A R Y with her hands. Aw what a cute name. Bridget thought. The woman was very tiny. She had small bones and was short. She had on a cute pink shirt and some kahki capris on. Grayson finally arrived and approached the two girls.

"Warning. She's deaf." Bridget whispered to Grayson. All though the woman couldn't hear her, she thought it would be respectful if she whispered. Grayson smiled at Mary and went the back of her car. He crawled under and got the spare tire. He then went to his car to get his other tools to change the tire.

After about twenty minutes, Grayson finally finished changing the tire. She woman smiled and gave him a hug. Grayson was taken by surprise at first, but he hugged her back, careful not to put his greasy hands on her shirt. The woman pulled away hugged Bridget. When she let go, she put her hand on her chin, and moved downward onto her other hand. While she did this, she mouthed thank you. Bridget smiled. The woman then got in her car and drove away.

"Hey, thanks for coming. I appreciate it and I know she did too." Bridget said.

"It was no problem. I'm glad I could be of use." Grayson said. They both laughed.

"So what are you up to?" Grayson asked.

"Well I just got done working out. I gave myself enough time to eat lunch before I had to go to training but then this happened. But I can eat something when I get there. What about you?" Bridget responded.

"Nothing much. I was eating cereal when Ethan called. That's it." He said with a sigh. Bridget responded with a laugh.

"Hey have you seen those flyers for the masquerade ball?" Grayson asked.

"Yeah I have. It looks like fun." She said looking back at the gym where she saw the flyer.

"I'm going. I'm taking my girlfriend Abby. You should go too. Maybe I can convince Ethan to go." He said.

"Maybe I will." Bridget responded. Maybe I will. With that, Grayson waved goodbye and Bridget drove off.

Yay Grayson made an appearance!!
