Aimie POV: 

It had been two full days now since I had seen Addy. 48 hours. 48 hours ago she was smiling at me, and now I hadn't seen or texted her in that long. Grace spent the night last night, because we have a weekly sleepover to have just a bit of gal time. It was a thing we came up with this before SiX, and we were just continuing the trend. 

We made coffee and pancakes and talked about whatever we felt like. It was comfortable, nothing like what it was the first couple weeks. We were terrified to have the comfortable silence between us, but now that, and the smell of Grace's strawberry candle, were the only things in the air. Well, that was all that was between us until Grace broke it. 

"You like Addy." She spoke bluntly. My coffee threatened to be burst from my mouth, and my face was bright red. "Don't worry, I only know because your phone lit up last night with a notification from Millie asking if you had texted her yet with a bunch of the winky emojis."

"Oh, um," screw you Mills. I love you though, "Yeah I kinda like her-"

Grace screeched, and I had to cut her off, "But there's no chance that she'll ever like me back. I mean, have you seen her? She's so, amazing, and I'm just me. Besides she won't text me back."

"Well then why don't you just initiate one of your good, deep, Aimie, philosophical conversations?"

"Are you kidding?!"

"What, I think it would be a good idea! Just text her!"

"No I can't text her, I texted first last time!"

"Oh my god-" her eyes rolled, and she pulled out her phone from the waistband of her leggings. 

"What are you doing?"

"Texting Addy to see if she wants to get coffee with us, and then we can go to rehearsal together."

"Oh, so what makes you think I'll want to come with?" 

"Because I signed you up to meet Addy at the theatre so you guys can walk to the cafe a block away together. Also Addy's excited to see you," she handed me her phone:

Addy!: Oki! Will you ask Aimie if she wants her jumper back?

"What do I say?!"

"Just say what you feel, don't sugar coat it, and don't build up those brick walls."

"Fine," I started typing.

Grace: Hey addy babe, it's aimie, no just keep it, i've got more, and it doesn't really phase me. besides you're cuter in it than i am. see you in thirty, and btw its 10 degrees out so wear trousers. x- aaa

"Did you actually give her a jumper?" 

"Yeah, it was cold out, and she was only in a tank top and a skirt, so I gave it to her so she could be warm. It's nothing big, Grace, it's only a jumper."

"Still that's so cute!"

I looked down:

Addy!: Oh, okay. Ahahaha thanks lol. xxx-amc

"YOU SENT HER KISSES?!" Grace was ecstatic, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity she just gave me to quote Millie's song. 

"I didn't know I would move in with his missus!?" I laughed out, and Grace looked as if she could slap me. 

"Just come on now you lesbian you," she rolled her eyes and grabbed her bag she had packed for rehearsal. I grabbed mine which also contained a couple extra things, but I lugged it down to the theatre and put it in my dressing room before Addy came. "Well I'm gonna go, what do you want? From the cafe?"
