~~~Grace's P.O.V~~~

After school, Mikey and I walk outside to his car. Someone calls me a name, but I ignore them and keep walking.

Mikey grabs my hand and squeezes it in reassurance. I give him a weak smile and get in the car. The names take toll after a while.

About 15 minutes later, we pull up to an adorable town house. We get out and I text my mom to let her know I'll be here for a few hours.

We walk up to the door and Mikey waves me through. I walk in to their house, mostly decorated, but a few boxes still lie around. It's adorable, his mother must've put a lot of work into it.

He grabs my hand and walks me upstairs. "My parents aren't home yet, they should be here around 5ish. Is that ok?" I nod as we walk into his room. I jump on his bed, him folllowing a few seconds later. We laugh, and I hear a voice say his name, "Mikey?"

He yells back, "Hey Sid! I'm in my room." I hear footsteps and a girl walks in, presumably his sister.

I sit up quickly as Mikey introduces me, "Sid, this is my girlfriend Grace. Grace, this is my sister Sidney, but if she likes you you can call her Sid." He winks at Sidney and she makes a face at him.

I shake hands with her and smile, she does too.

Mikey kicks Sid out after a few minutes and starts to set up his lights and camera. I head to the bathroom, my hair can be extremely disobiedient. I try to fix the parts that are sticking up and head back to Mikey's room.

"Sit over at my desk, so they can't see you yet." He tells me. I obey and watch him as he starts. "Hey what's up guys it's Mikey. Today's video is gonna be a little different. I want to introduce you to someone very special in my life." He waves me over.

I sit next to him, but not super close. He puts his arm around me and pulls me closer. "This is my girlfriend, Grace. My real girlfriend, I swear this isn't another prank." I smile a little and look at him.

He looks at me and kisses my cheek. I blush and glance at the camera. Mikey coughs, "Alright. Today, we're going to do a drawing challenge. We're going to attempt to draw each other, blindfolded."

After we're done filming, it's nearly 5:30. We watch the clips back and laugh at how idiotic we look. I sit next to Mikey with my head on his shoulder while he edits.

It doesn't take too long, it was a pretty easy to make. I'm taking a film class right now, and I could learn a lot from Mikey when it comes to editing.

A knock on the door makes me jump. "Mikey?" A woman's voice calls. Mikey hops up and opens the door. It's his mom, I guess. I get up too, I don't want to make a bad first impression.

She sees me and smiles. "Hi I'm Mrs. Murphy. You must be Grace. We've heard a lot about you." I shake her hand and glance at Mikey. He's blushing.

I giggle a little and say, "It's nice to meet you too!" She puts her hand on Mikey's shoulder, and walks down the stairs. "Dinner is in an hour!" She calls.

Mikey yell ok, and closes the door. He spins me back into his room so I'm facing him. His lips are on mine, and my nerves melt. My heart is pounding, and not just because I just met his mother.

His hands are lightly placed on my waist, and it sends shivers down my spine. I loop my hands around his neck and put my back against the wall. I kiss him back, not too gently. I've been waiting for this, it's exactly how I imagined it. He's gentle and cautious, while my kisses are more hungry. I'm dizzy, and he comes up for air.

I'm flushed red, and so is he. I give him a sly grin, and lean in. Just before I kiss him, I run and jump on the bed. He groans, "Unfair. Don't tease me!"

I giggle as he jumps and lays next to me. He locks eyes with me, and we lean in again. I slow down the kiss, I want to enjoy it. His hand tucks my hair behind my ear and I scoot closer.

A sound at the door makes us break apart. No one's coming in, it must've been Sidney walking down the hallway. My heart is racing, and I can hear Mikey's is too. He sighs and pulls me back, as I jumped a foot away.

I cuddle against his chest and he he pulls out his phone. He flips on the front facing camera and smiles cheesily. I do too, and he takes a few selfies.

We put up a peace sign, just like he always does for his videos. I tell him not to post the picture yet, we should wait until after the video is up. He agrees and uploads it. I'm nervous, and by the way he's squeezing my hand, he is too.

We browse YouTube, and I choose Tyler Oakley, my queen, and he chooses Luke Korns, of course. His mom yells that dinner is ready, and we head downstairs, Sid right behind us.

I walk into the dining room with Mikey, and sit next to him. His father comes in and sits down at the head of the table.

He smiles when he sees me, "You must be Mikey's girlfriend Grace. I'm Mr. Murphy." He punches Mikey on the arm lightly. "I'm surprised you even have a girlfriend at all!" He and I laugh and Mikey groans. "Dad!" Sid giggles and says she agrees.

Mikey is blushing a little, it's so adorable.

Mrs. Murphy walks in and takes her place on Mr. Murphy's right. "Well guys, dig in!"

She made burgers, and I'm starving.

I put onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado on mine, while Sidney likes her's mostly plain. We start eating, and it's amazing. I wish I could cook like this. I burn water.

Mr. Murphy starts talking about football, both college and pro. Usually, girls tune out, but I grew up around football. Mr. Murphy is talking about the Falcons, my expertise. "They used to be one of the greatest teams in the league-" I interrupt him.

"But now they suck." He looks impressed. "You watch football?" I nod. "College or Pro?" I smile. "Both, but mostly college. And by the way, Georgia is making a comeback. I think it's because of my lucky statue of UGA."

Mr. Murphy nods and smiles wider. He nudges Mikey. "I like this one. She's smart!" We laugh and continue eating.

After dinner, Mrs. Murphy brings out some cupcakes. All chocolate, my favorite. "Dessert anyone?" She asks. We all grab one, and I rip the bottom off and put it on top like a sandwich. Mikey raises an eyebrow.

"It works!" I exclaim, "Plus, this way you won't lose any sprinkles!" He squints his eyes, then does the same. We take a bit together, and I can tell he's impressed. This way, the frosting has balance.

A little while later, after watching TV with his family, I look at the time, and Mikey grabs his car keys. I say goodbye to his family, and get into his car.

We drive home, laughing about how alike he and his dad are. We pull up to my house, and I kiss him goodbye. Not just a peck either, it's passionate and feelings like the world doesn't matter.

Mikey groans when I pull away, and I peck him again and open my door. "I'll see you tomorrow, ok?" Mikey smiles, "Bye babe!" I giggle a little at the word, I've never been called it before.

I walk towards my house, waving once I reach the door. He pulls out of the driveway, and I smile.

This is the new start I was looking for.
