Chase:
I blinked my eyes open and as I moved I noticed Grace in the bed with me. Me moving around made her wake up. "Morning." She said rolling over to face me. "Morning" I smiled down to her. I stared down at her when we stared moving closer. Then I heard the door slam. I raised up as I heard Hannah. "Morning babe!" She yelled from down the hall. I  looked towards the door and she was in the door way. "What- oh. Uh, what's going on?" Hannah asked looking at Grace in my bed. I looked from Hannah to Grace then back to Hannah real quick. "Babe, I swear nothing happened." "Uh, then explain why she's in your bed. Asleep!" At this time Grace started to wake up. "Oh hey Hannah what's up?" She said. "What's up? You're in my boyfriends bed. That's what's up." At this point Hannah was on the edge of screaming. "Oh Hannah, trust me, it's not like that, just me and Brantley got into an argument last nig-" "maybe you got into an argument because you're in another mans bed. Oh my gosh." Hannah threw her hands up and and walked off. I looked at Grace. She just raised her eye brows "I'll get her!" I said getting out of bed and going to catch her before she gets out of the house. "Hannah wait!" I grabbed her hand and pulled her back. "No, leave me alone." "No. Babe. I would never hurt you like that. Never would I ever do that to you. Honestly. All honesty here babe. Me and Grace didn't do anything last night. She came and dropped my truck off and she wasn't having a good night. Her and Brantley was fighting and she had a lot on her mind. Trust me. The whole in bed thing wasn't sex nor was that even meant to happen. I didn't mean to sleep in the same bed as her. Please believe me." I begged Hannah. "Fine. What stuff was on her mind?" Hannah asked. "Uh, about a family member of hers that passed away." I said. I explained to Hannah some more until Grace came out an apologized to Hannah "I'm gonna get my stuff and go." Grace said getting up to leave. "Wait. My truck isn't even here. It's at my house. Can I get a ride home?" She asked. "I'll take her!" Hannah jumped up. "Oh yeah. Okay!" I said. They left and I just laid on the couch trying to figure out what to do today since I texted my boss last night saying I wasn't coming in. I was gonna spend today with Grace, but I guess that's a change of plans.
Is it bad that I kinda enjoyed waking up beside Grace. Even though it was an honest mistake?.
