Grace's POV
(Special note, the image above DOES NOT mean that this is about cougars or werewolves. The image will make sense towards the middle of this chapter. There is NO supernatural activities or secrets like that in this story. ENJOY!)
Laying there feeling numb listening to Logan busying himself while we wait for Mel and Spencer to return.
I wasn't sure why I felt this way towards Spencer, but I knew that if he liked someone I needed to do the best friend thing and let Mel know so she wouldn't get hurt. I would have been happy for Mel if her and Spencer were together... It may have hurt at first but I feel that I could have gotten over it.
Time seemed to be moving so slow, they had only been gone for about an hour and I felt like it was an eternity. I really hope they weren't doing anything... For Mel's sake...
A knock sounded on the door, and it cracked open after a minute when I didn't answer. Closing my eyes and steadying my breathing I pretended to be asleep. I wasn't really in the mood to deal with anyone tonight.
"She's asleep." I hear Mel whisper. So they have returned. My chest aches at that, I need to stop these feelings. Either way even if it was Mel or some other girl he likes someone and it isn't me. I have so much going on in my life as it is I don't have time to think about a man anyways.
Once she closed the door I heard them walk down the hall and Mel giggle while they were whispering about something. Tears fell from my eyes and I soon cried myself to sleep.
Spencer's POV
Arriving back home I think over all that Mel has discussed with me after I told her about being the man that was emailing Grace. Recalling her shock I almost laugh out loud.
"So Mel, the thing I couldn't really discuss with Grace around is... I've been in an email correspondence with her for the last couple years. I lost contact with her for about two years and found her when I caught her case..."
She looked pale and shocked, eyes almost popping out of her sockets. "You're SilverNavyFox?"
"Actually it's SilverFoxNavy but yes, that would be me."
"She waited for you for two years, she JUST started going out a couple months ago after I encouraged her since you vanished without a trace. WHAT THE H*LL HAPPENED TO YOU!? She was in LOVE with you." She trails off at the end flabbergasted that this was happening. "Why haven't you told her!?"
"Everything is a mess. I don't want to freak her out, 'Hey Grace I'm the guy you've been emailing with... Mind you I was searching for you and guess what your case just landed in my lap, No I'm not some creepy stalker!'"
"Ok I get your point. What happened to you though?"
"Well... I was kinda laid up for a while... You know how I mentioned that Logan was in the blast of an IED... I was with him in the same blast. It put me in a coma for about a year. I had to go through some physical therapy, regular therapy. I didn't get it as bad as Logan but I was thrown and hit my head had some internal bleeding and they had to put me in an induced coma for the swelling to go down in my brain. I'm better now though."
