4 months after arriving in new york for a fresh start, or so people believe.
She starts working at carter corp, but she's about to open a whole new can of worms she wasn't expecting .
She's in search if answers from her past, but there's going to b...
You ready she asks? With a huge smile on her face ear to ear.
I nod, feeling unsure if my words will fail me, so I grab her hand as she pulls me, in the direction she was still facing.
She seems happy, light, sure of herself as she walks gracefully like a ballerina, moving with easy pass the people who seems up be rushing by drinking coffee and smoking there cigarettes, her smile never faltering, and she still makes others smile back.
When she finally stop's, it's in front of a store, I am sure I've passed millions of time, but never really took any notice, I hesitate for a second, stopping in the door way, till she turns and says, this is my most favourite place in all of new York, I see her eyes sparkle like diamonds.
The guy behind the counter immediately recognises her, and comes quickly to see her.
Oh miss valentine, he says grinning ear to ear, and he hugs her like an old friend, I see your back to search the vinyl, and you bought a partner in crime this time, as he nods to me still smiling.
She gives him this brilliant, laugh of an angel, joey, I told you to call me grace, she laughs again and you know my philosophy, you can't beat the original records done on vinyl.
She turns to me, I love this place, it's full of old hidden treasures, her eyes sparkle once again like a kid in a candy store.
As I follow her further back, she grabs my hand, this is what I wanted to show you.

I lead him to a set of pearl maple drums, his eyes widen, and he gives me a cheeky smile.
He watches me closely, joey can we? She asks like a child full of joy.
Of course, you know your welcome to try anything, as long as you don't break it, he shout to her.
So she asks? I stay stunned for a moment. Okay then, she says as she sits behind the drums herself, taking the drmsticks and starts to place ace of spades by motorhead
Adam's point of view
I stand watching, she has her eyes closed as she starts, I however can not be able to stand still, I am hoping from one foot to the other, and get out my phone to tape her.
As joey stands behind me and whispers you know she can play any instrument. You ain't seen nothing yet, he says before grinning as he starts walking off again.
I press send on my phone to message it to Colin, seems your right, check this out. I add to the message. As she ends looking at me.
Your turn. She says smiling at me, as she gets up to let me in, I don't pass her, I grab her by the waist stopping her moving further away from me, I kiss her automatically, it sends a chill down my spine, I feel myself blush like a school not with a crush.
You wanna play? She asks
With you all the time, I say automatically as she widens the smile on her face, as I realise she talking about the drums. Making me turn bright red, I dont need a mirror to know that, she bites her lip.
So what don't you play? instrument wise I mean, I say quickly the last bit quickly, she taps her index finger against her chin as she think.
Ukulele, saxophone, hmm mm. . Bagpipes, she says laughing.
We spend hours messing with instruments, looking at old vinyl, front different which decades, and we decide to finally up for a coffee.
I love talking to her, she makes me laugh so much, I don't feel pressured into being anyone other than myself.
As time starts ticking away, I start to walk her back to her place, i have a gig tonight, I know Colin had already invited her, his words were Doris likes her around she's more grounded when grace is there.
I feel like I'm walking on water, as I walk her back, I suddenly remembered what I need to do Monday, so me being me, i do my usual girl conversation.
She looks at me as I have her hand in mine, you know I don't do relationships, I'm always busy, erm.... I rub my hand through my hair.
She stops walking and looks at me, and nods, it's okay Adam I get it, she drops my hand from hers, thanks for a nice afternoon it was.... fun, I might see you later she says, beginning to walk off.
Grace.... I feel like I have to run to catch her up, dam she's fast.
Wait please, I say as she stop's facing me.
Tell me adam, what do you Want of me? Cause quite honestly I don't think you even know. She shrugs her shoulders looking at me in the eye.
I stay silent unsure what to say.
....?
Hmmmm..... You know what they say silence speaks volumes. She turns starts walking again.
I'm such an idiot, I try to go after her but shes already in her front door as my phone goes with colin calling me and I see the time.
I am grunting what? Down the phone.
I just hope she comes tonight so I can speak to her and not just go sort this mess out, and because I need her to get me into carter Corp, but I actually want to get to know more about her.
