Is it love? Grace's story 🔞 Adam or Owen?

Bar bars (part 1)

After shopping all afternoon yesterday with Jenny pulling me in and out of what felt like every store in New York we finally ate in our favourite Italian restaurant.

Okay I have to ask she leans across the table, what's with you and my brother? she looks at me quizzically.

I hold my hands up, I promise you there is nothing, we spoke for the 1st time today, after I had another run in with that annoying, fake boobed snake, cassidy bloody sparks.

She looks at me, trying to see if I am lying. You like my brother?

I don't know your brother Jenny, I just met him and besides you know very well I ain't looking right now.

She smirks, I think you would make a great match, she says as that grin of hers gets wider.

I put my index finger up and wiggle it side to side, oh no don't even think about it. I tell her she looked stund as she pouts.

Well if you change your mind you have my blessing. I raise an eye brow as our waiter appears, perfect timing.

I go for my usual lasagne, Jenny picks spaghetti bologna, and a bottle of red wine.

So you would be interested in dinner with us tomorrow night? She says.

It's very thoughtful of you, but as your aware, I promised to go see colin's band with matt.

So your dating matt? She says raising her eye brow.

No... I am not dating matt we are just friends

Does he know that? She says placing her elbow on the table, she leans her chin against her hand.

Yes, he knows that, and you know why I am staying away from guys in general right now she sighs.

I know, but why you going tomorrow night?

Wow... sometimes I forget how stubborn Jenny can be. Well he's been asking me to go watch colin's band since I arrived and I kept saying maybe next time, and I can't say no again, I did say I would start saying yes more often.

After what felt like a grilling off Jenny, and being dragged into ever store, I step through my front door drop my shopping bags in the floor and head to the sofa to collapse, i remove my heels which feel like they have been attached for a week to feet. 

I switch on my TV before logging into my emails on my laptop, I sigh due to it taking so long to load up, stupid computer.

I decide to stick the kettle on for a cup of tea and run the water for a nice long soak in the bath with some amazing essential oils.

Just as I sit down with my cup of tea my door bell rings.

I open the door to find Lisa,  wow girl that smells nice, see looks down and sees my shopping bags, that I haven't had chance to move yet.

Good timing as always Lisa,  I say smirking, I will just switch the water in the bath off.

No you get your bath, we can talk while you soak, she says.

Cuppa?

Yes, please I grab my cup and I go to fix Lisa one, come on tell auntie grace what got you down in the dumps.

How did you know?

Lisa, you have a great job, no money problems and you work out, your the only problem in life that you ever have is with men.. like me, I say pointing to myself as she sigh's deeply.

You remember that guy we met when we went to yoga.

Oh yeah, the hottie with a doggie, I say trying not to laugh.
