*MICHAEL POV*
Grace just broke up with me. I'm in shock. I don't even know how she got that picture. Don't get me wrong, I really do like Grace, but Jennifer is so hot and she came up to me at the party. She asked me if she could kiss me. Thinking Grace couldn't find out, I said yes and she started making out with me as she sat on my lap.
Then, she asked me out. I completely forgot about Grace at that moment and said yes.
I was trying to think of a way to explain because I would rather be with Jennifer because she is so hot, a good kisser, and she is more popular than Grace.
I know that's wrong but I just couldn't say no to Jennifer. It's like she hypnotized me.
Anyways, I'm really sad she broke up with me, but I'm also sort of happy because I really like Jennifer.
*HAYES POV*
I was walking to the park, because it makes me think of Grace when we would go there together. That's why I went. To think about her.
When I was on my way someone ran into me. Then I realized it was Grace, and she was crying.
"Grace! what's wrong?" I asked
"Hayes." was all she said and she hugged me. I liked it.
"Are you okay?" I whispered. She was still crying but it was softer. She looked up at me and shook her head no. "Come on." I said as I led her to my house. This could be my chance to tell her how I feel. When we got there we sat on the couch.
"What happened?" I asked her.
"Michael cheated on me." she sniffled. I felt so bad for her even though I like her and he's my best friend.
"Gosh, I'm sorry Grace."
"It's okay." she whispered. She laid her head on my shoulder and I smiled. I comforted her. It felt so good to have her in my arms. Obviously I'm not happy that they broke up, but I am a little happy because now I could have a chance with Grace.
"Grace, I gotta tell you something." I said
"What is it?" she asked
"I uh..."
"You like me." she stated.
"Y-yeah how did you know?"
"Sammy told me after Natalie told her. but don't be mad at them. I'm glad she told me." she smiled. Does that mean she likes me? I smiled too. We looked into each others eyes. I started leaning in, and she followed. Our faces were inches apart when, when of course, Nash burst through the door. We pulled away quickly.
"Whoa! Sorry little love birds!" he said laughing, while I was about to kill him. Grace and I just sat there embarrassed. I motioned Nash to get out of the room with my head. He looked back at me and winked, mouthing 'get it'. I rolled my eyes.
"I like you too." Grace whispered in my ear. I smiled and she saw, and blushed.

*HAYES POV*
Grace and I watched movies for the rest of the day because it started raining. But later we got bored. I was thinking about what she said to me. She likes me. She interrupted my thoughts.
"Hey we should go in the rain!" She giggled.
"Okay, but we will probably get sick." I laughed.
"It's worth it, if I'm with you." she smiled, showing her perfectly straight and white teeth. I smiled back and we headed outside to the pouring rain.
"READY!!" she yelled.
"SET!!"
"GO!!" We ran in the rain spinning and running around. We felt so free.
"This is awesome!" she said running up to me.
"Yep." I smiled. "Do you want a piggy back ride?" I asked.
"YESSS!" she yelled. She hopped on my back and I ran around with her on me. I slipped in a muddy patch in the grass and almost fell, but we just laughed as I set her down. There we are. Just standing in the rain in the middle of the backyard looking at each other.
She walked closer to me and I grabbed her hand.
"TAG! YOU'RE IT!" she yelled.
"Oh you're gonna get it Grace!" I joked. We ran and ran, me chasing her. I was coming close to her and I reached out, grabbed her waist and turned her around. Now is my chance to make a move. She put her forehead against mine. I leaned in and our lips connected. It was amazing. That's when I knew. I love Grace.
*GRACE POV*
I was having the best time with Hayes in the rain. When he pulled me close to him our foreheads were together and he started leaning in. My heart was racing, then our lips crashed together. My stomach turned with butterflies. It was incredible.
We pulled apart after 3 seconds. We smiled at each other. I'm pretty sure I was blushing like crazy because he giggled at me. I covered my face but he pulled my hands down from it.
"Stop. It's cute." he said. I just smiled.
"We should probably go inside now." I laughed.
"Yeah that would be a good idea."
We went inside and Mrs. Grier was there. "Hey kids." she said.
"Hi Elizabeth!" I said. She always tells me to call her that instead of Mrs. Grier. "Well I should head home and you know, get dry." I said chuckling.
"Okay I'll walk you out." Hayes said.
*HAYES POV*
After I walked Grace out, I went upstairs to grab towel to dry off, and wipe the floors that Grace and I basically flooded with water. I came down in dry clothes, getting ready to clean when my mom stopped me.
"I was watching you two out there Hayes." she said. I felt my face get red.
"Oh." I said quietly.
"Hayes just admit it. You like her, and you two were meant to be. I've always thought that." She said. I smiled and started to clean the floors.
