Grants POV
This is the first weekend in a while that I have just stayed in Vancouver. The cast is going to watch a movie tonight. I'm pretty sure we are going to go see The Greatest Showman. Candice and I have been excited to see it since it came out. I just left my trailer and I say goodbye to Candice and go back to my apartment. I get home and I see LA on the couch. The dogs are snuggled up to her. I tell LA that I'm going to see a movie. She tells me that she would go but she doesn't feel well. Before I go get ready I make her some chicken noodle soup and then I hop into the shower. I get out of the shower and I get a text from Candice.

Candice: Hey, when are you coming to pick me up?
Grant: I just got out of the shower I will be there in 45 minutes.
Candice: Okay. Is LA coming?
Grant: No...she doesn't feel well.
Candice: Oh no. Hope she feels better!
Grant: Yah. See ya soon.

I'm actually really excited that I can get out of the apartment alone. I know I shouldn't be thinking about this but something about Candice feels different. I feel safe with her. Don't get me wrong LA is an amazing woman. I finish getting ready and I kiss LA on the fore head and walk out the door. I text the group chat
Grant: I'm on my way.
We are meeting at the front of the theater at seven and the movie starts at 7:30 but all of us like watching the previews. Danielle is not going to be there because the weekends are the only time she gets to see her husband. But the rest of the cast is coming.
Candice POV
OK,  so I have 45 minutes to take a shower and get ready. I mean I'm really really upset that LA is not coming. Who am I kidding, I'm really happy that she's not coming. I know Grant has these feelings for me, I mean at least I think he does. From the start there was something about him that just threw me off, everything just feels right with him. When he broke up with Hannah I thought this is my chance,  we're gonna be together. But then not even five months later he's with LA and then a year later they're engaged. Now I don't know anymore. But the weird thing is Grant's feelings towards me haven't changed any since  he's been engaged. I get a text from the group chat, it's from Grant he says he is on his way. I'm sitting on the couch playing with Zoe I hear knock on the door. I go and open it it's Grant. Man, why couldn't I have told him that I liked him, maybe I'll never have a chance now. I put Zoe away in her crate and grab my purse and walk out the door.
Grant POV
WOW.  Candice looks beautiful even though  her hair is in a ponytail and she is in sneakers, joggers,  and a sweatshirt.  I lead Candice to my car and we get in. I turn on the radio and we just start singing. The song Perfect comes on and I couldn't help but smile. This song reminds me of her, what i feel about her. She knows all the words, she is the girl that I have been waiting for. I've had these feelings since the first day but I thought they would just pass. I broke up with Hannah and Candice didn't seem into me anymore. Then I got with LA and now I can see it, Candice ace Patton is the one. But I'm in this engagement with LA.  I have to do something before it's too late. The next song is Him and I by Halsey and G-Eazy. We start singing along and I feel free. Everything I do with Candice is natural and easy. We get to the movie theater and I see Tom, Jesse, Keiynan, Hartley, and Tom. I get out of the car and so does Candice. I lock the car and walk  to the front. I go to buy the tickets and I hop in front of  Candice and buy two tickets, one for me and one for her. She says you didn't have to and I say no it's OK.
Candice POV
Those songs must have been for us. It's weird how easy everything feels with Grant. And to put it over-the-top he buys my movie ticket,  he such a nice guy. We walk inside and go to theater 12. I walk beside Grant, our hands brushing up against each other he doesn't seem to move. I tell myself Candice you need to stop thinking about this, he has a fiancé. But he's showing signals too so maybe somethings up with them. We walk to the theater and I sit next to Grant and Keiynan. Grant bought a large popcorn and a large slushy. I grab a straw and put in a slushy.
Grant: Who said you could have some of my slushy?
Candice: Oops.
The movie starts and I put my hand on the armrest. Grants arm brushes over it and then he puts his hand on top of mine. He's just being playful I think to myself. Then he looks over and stares at me with longing eyes. Maybe it's not playful. I look over Keiynan, he is glued to the screen. They show a preview for Mama Mia. I know he loves that movie. We watch for a while. Then, I hear the starting of Rewrite the Stars. I've listen to the song so many times and the only person I can think about is Grant. The song comes on and I can see him looking at me I look at him and smile. He squeezes my hand and rub his foot against my leg. The movie goes on and when the lights come up we quickly separate so that rest of the cast doesn't think anything. We walk out of the theater and then we go to our  cars. Grant drives me home but I fall asleep on the way home. I wake up to Grant rubbing my hand. I'm in front of my apartment complex. He parks the car and we walk up to my apartment. We're outside the door.
Grant: That was really fun.
Candice: Yah, tell LA that I hope she feels better.
Grant: Okay. Well... I guess I'll  see you monday.
Candice: Yah. See ya!

Grant POV
What a night. I was hoping Candice would invite me inside ,but I know she's really tired. Before I leave I give her a kiss on the cheek and then I said bye. As I walked out to my car, I do a lot of thinking. What did I do to meet someone as amazing as Candice? I think tomorrow I'm going to tell  Candice that LA is my fake girlfriend and we are together just for press.
