Starting new // sequel to moving in with my bullies.

Chapter 11

Grace's POV
Tears stained my face and my pillow. My eyes stung from crying so much. I thought he was better than that. I thought he knew when to say when. I don't wanna believe it, it feels like a dream. It's real though, this is real life. I just can't believe it...

Grayson's POV
"Come on pick up the damn phone" I said pacing the room.

"Hey Grayson" finally she answered.

"Hey, I need you to go to Grace's apartment and make sure she's okay. She hasn't been answering my calls and I know she knows." I said.

"Okay I'll go right now." She said.

"Thanks Lexi. I can't believe Ethan would do that. I know he was drunk but he should've known what he was doing was wrong."

"Yea I know, and for him to do this to my best friend, he's lucky I don't bash his face in."

"I might. Grace is such a good person, I just can't believe this is happening." I said, "Well I gotta go rehearse, call me later."

"Alright, bye Gray" I hung up the phone and threw it across the room. I'm so pissed, I just wanna strangle him and make him pay for what he did.

Lexi's POV
I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. Almost immediately after, Grace answered. She pulled me into the tightest hug I've ever had.

"I'm so glad you're here Lex" she said crying into my shoulder.

"I'm so glad I'm here too. But I'm more glad that you're okay." I said. She looked at me with sadness in her eyes. I could see that she's been crying; there were tear stains on her cheeks. I hate seeing my best friend this upset, and over a guy? This sucks.

"We need to talk." I think I can help her through this, I help her through everything.

Grace's POV
I'm too upset to talk right now. I just wanna know why he did it.

"Come in, we'll go in my room." I said. I had to let her in, I need to vent to my best friend.

Grayson's POV
"Hey Lexi, it's Grayson calling. Um I just wanted to ask if you talked to Grace. And if you did please call me." I left a message on Lexi's answering machine. She hasn't been answering my calls and I'm starting to get really scared.

*ring ring*

Yes! She's calling back! I pick up the phone and put it to my hear, "Hello?" I say into the phone.

"Grayson, I talked to Grace," She said, "she's just upset right now. I asked her to call you and she said she doesn't want anything to do with Ethan so she can't talk to you either. I'm sorry" she said, she sounded sincere.

I paced the room, "so now she's blaming me for what Ethan did?! I didn't do shit to her but whatever" I said. I didn't mean to snap it just kinda came out..

"GRAYSON BAILEY DOLAN DON'T GET AN ATTITUDE," she yelled into the phone. I never heard her yell before it kinda caught me off guard, "Listen here bup, if you're gonna get an attitude about it, maybe get your head out of Ethan's ass so you can see that what he did was wrong. And he hurt my best friend doing it, he knew what he was doing at that party. That girl is pregnant because your dumbass brother didn't use a condom, and now Grace is crying in her room. But you don't care, bye Grayson." She hung up the phone. I must've said the wrong thing..

Grace's POV
All I could do was cry. I couldn't help it. I love him, I still love him after what he did. I don't know why though. I got up off my bed and went to my dresser where I left my phone.

This seems like a really bad idea. I have a lot of questions for Ethan. I call Ethan, his number was still in my phone as "Babe😍🔥".

"Hello" I hear a sleepy Ethan answer.

"Hey is this a bad time, were you sleeping?" I ask.

"Yes I was sleeping but no this isn't a bad time"

"I just wanted to talk, but not over the phone. I wanna talk in person"

"I'll fly there right now, I swear I'm out my door right now in the car on my way to the airport" damn, he really needs to talk.

"I'll see you when you get here" and with that I hung up the phone.

Grace's POV
"ETHAN!" I said flinging myself in his arms.

"Grace! I really need to talk to you. I wanna tell you everything."

"Come on" I said walking inside. I walked back to my room and sat on the bed. Ethan sat next to me.

"It's weird cuz we weren't supposed to be broken up the first time I came to your apartment. That's what I wanted to talk to you about. I'm really sorry about this Grace."

"Ethan what you did to me was so unforgivable. Now there's a girl pregnant with your child. I'm sorry but I wanted you here to tell you in person that this isn't gonna work." I said. The words kind of just came out I didn't think about it I just let my mouth do all the work.

He looked hurt. Almost as hurt as I was. I wanted to be with him, I wanted to grab his face and kiss him but I couldn't. Who knows what he'll do next.

"I'm sorry Grace. I really didn't mean to hurt you. I was drunk at a party and I wasn't thinking I missed you so much that every girl I saw had your face so I thought it was you. Even though drunk me didn't realize it, I knew it was wrong and I'm sorry. I should probably go." He said. That was the sweetest thing I've ever heard.
