In love with my best friend

Court ruling

I watched her walk away and I felt so bad but there was nothing I could do. At least not yet that is. Gray called me to make sure I was okay and we talked for the rest of the day until I fell asleep. Sunday flew by in the wink of an eye and by the time I realized it was too late. It was Wednesday, it was court day and as much as I wanted to end all of this. I don't think I was ever fully prepared to have to tell people and have them decide if what I was doing was right. I put a pillow over my head as the sun started to seep into my room through the blinds and curtains. I heard my door open and decided it was best to just become a part of my bed forever rather than see who it was

Grayson: Hey Button, time to wake up

Izabella: Do I have to?

Grayson: Kinda, today's a big day.

Izabella: I know, but it's also the worst best day of my life.

Grayson: It's a good thing.

Izabella: Sadly.

Grayson: I know, it's been tough with everything that's going on but you've got this.

I moved the pillow off of my face and opened my eyes only to be greeted with the sight of him in a grey three piece suit, with a white shirt, a blue tie, and his black shoes. He looked so handsome, the most handsome man I'd ever seen.

Izabella: Why are you all dressed up?

Grayson: I need you to keep me in check and you need me to be there for you. So I will be there for you, but I'll keep my mouth shut.

Izabella: I can't ask that of you.

Grayson: You're not asking, I'm telling. I won't let you do this alone, even though you won't be alone.

Izabella: Fine, I'm not in the mood to argue. But I will tell you that you look so handsome.

Grayson: Why thank you m'lady.

He walked over to me and held out his hand. I grabbed it and he carefully pulled me out of bed.

Grayson: Today we fight and soon we'll rest in victory.

Izabella: In victory.

Grayson: I'll go so you can get dressed.

Izabella: Okay, I'll see you soon.

I kissed his cheek and he walked away. I walked to my closet and picked out a blush pink suit and a white lingerie. It was covered in lace and covered my skin enough to pull it off as a shirt. And a pair of heels that matched the color of my suit. I brushed and curled my hair. I was presentable and professional. I slowly walked downstairs with my phone and Gray stared at me like it was the first day we met. Like I intrigued him more than anything he'd ever seen.

Grayson: Bella, you look incredible.

Izabella: Thank you kind sir.

Grayson: I told your parents I'd take you so she already left.

Izabella: Okay, I've got to take my meds and eat something and then we can go.

Grayson: You're mom laid everything out on the counter.

Izabella: Always one step ahead.

Grayson: Tends to be a thing for this family.

I took a painkiller, a probiotic, and my vitamins. Mom left me a fruit salad on the counter with a bottle of water. I ate as much as I could before the stress settled in.

Grayson: You okay?

Izabella: I'm not sure, I mean I spent all this time preparing to tell everyone what happened to Sammie. To fight for Sammie but it just feels like I'm not doing enough for her.
