Chester's POV
I'm supposed to be editing, but when I hear the ring of the Skype call and see Grace's name, I can't help it. I really want to see her.

"Hey babe." I say, after picking up the call.

Grace smiles at me. She looks worn out, but in a good way. She seems happy at least.

"Hi you dumb dumb." She answers, laughing a little.

"How is the book tour going?" I ask.

"Good." Grace replies. "It's been really fun."

"Good." I respond.

"Are you having fun on stage?" She asks.

"Yeah, it's great. But it would be better if you were up there with me." I state. "I miss you a lot, Grace."

"I miss you too Ches." She whispers.

I'm just barely holding back tears.

"I love you baby girl." I murmur.

"I love you too." Grace replies, a small tear sliding down her cheek.

We stay on the call together, talking about nothing and everything.

"Grace?" I ask, realizing she hasn't answered me for a bit.

I look back to the screen, and see she's fallen asleep. I laugh a little, looking over to the clock. 2:03am.

She looks so peaceful sleeping.

"Goodnight." I tell her.

I lay down on my pillow, but don't log off the skype call. I miss her too much, and I don't want to let go yet.
