Chapter 11{ D E A N }I knew it was wrong the moment I finished speaking. I shouldn't have been so harsh on her but she just drove me fucking insane. But, what I said to her wasn't right, especially after she opened up to me today."Got it." She said sternly.At that moment I was scared because I couldn't particularly tell what she was thinking. Her eyes held no emotion at all; they seemed distant and cold, like she was building her walls back up.Not like she ever really let them down for me but I saw a glimpse of what was on the other side. But it felt like she was locking me out again.Completely.Immediately the words came out of her mouth, she walked away and I hadn't realized it. I was thinking too much, about her, again.God, this woman."Grace!" I ca

Chapter 13I barely had any sleep last night.Screw you, Dean Ryan.I woke up early this morning and had a long shower. I got into the kitchen and started fixing up breakfast."Hey G." I heard Chris speak behind me."Hi," I said and placed his omelette on a plate and handed it to him. "Thank you." Chris said quietly.He was wearing a black V-neck on blue ripped jeans. His hair was wet and droplets of water were falling to his face.I dished out my omelette and took out the mugs of hot chocolate. I handed Chris a mug and sat down."So... You never told me how last night went." Chris said cautiously."I don't want to talk about it." I shrugged."Why not? Did you guys fight again?" He raised an eyebrow."Let it go, Christian." I said firmly."Oh, so

Chapter 15Dean and I stayed at the beach house for a little while last night before he drove me back home. I made sure to give Kyle a call, apologizing for Dean's behavior, before I went to bed.I woke up this morning with a cheerful feeling. I had a long refreshing shower, got dressed in a mint green sweater and blue jeans, placed everything necessary into my bag and walked out of my room.Chris was still in his room when I got out so I walked into the kitchen and started fixing up breakfast. I was dancing to the song that was playing in my iPod, swaying my hips and bobbing my head to the rythm as I flipped the pancakes in the pan."Morning, Grace." I heard Chris speak groggily behind me.I placed two pancakes in a plate and turned to Chris who was seated on a barstool. I handed him his breakfast with a bright smile on my face, "Morning, best friend."Chris' e

Chapter 17I walked over to them, "Mom, this is my new friend, Dean.""It's very nice to meet you, ma'am." Dean smiled at my mom, stealing glances at me."You must be the reason behind my daughter's smile recently." My mom said and I felt my cheeks heat up. "And it's Miranda to you.""I hope I am." Dean smiled at me. "You look amazing, Grace.""As do you."Dean was dressed in a black suit and a black bow tie. I couldn't help but smile when I noticed he was wearing the suit jacket I told him I preferred and it hugged his body in such a way that easily said that it was tailor-made for him. He looked muscular and his hair was a hot mess on his head.I know I said that Dean was like a brother to me, but why did said brother have to be smoking hot?!"Enough with the googly eyes. Let's go!" Chris rolled his eyes."But I

   "She will be the death of me," They said.Little did they know I wasn't afraid of dying.Chapter 18"Chip, calm down for a second." Dean held both my shoulders. "He has to be somewhere in the house.""He's not," I sniffed. "I've looked everywhere. He's not picking up his phone and I'm worried out of my goddamn mind.""Maybe he might just be somewhere you haven't looked yet." He said in a soothing voice."He was talking to his parents not too long ago and he looked so glum. They must have said something terrible to him." I stuttered."We're going to find him, Chip. You have to calm down."
