As Long as I Got You

ch.10

gracie and bella were just really enjoying each others company and getting to know each other. they all hung out in gracie's green room, gracie even managed to have taylor's say hi to bella's friends who actually panicked and fangirled like crazy.bella and gracie were still chatting on the couch after over an hour and bella's friends were becoming anxious about going back to bella's place since they had school tomorrow and classes plus soccer practice

sophia: sorry gracie to interrupt but bella we have practice tomorrow dude and school you have morning classes and it's gonna be midnight
bella: shit ur right-
gracie: oh go go i don't want you to be late tomorrow
bella: you sure?
gracie: yeah what do you mean ofc im sure ill be fine with audrey
bella: ok

bella gave a weak smiling realizing she was now having to leave gracie. the time just felt like it flew when they were together, they would pay such close attention to the other talking about any and everything from childhood memories to places they've visited traveling around the world or music and soccer, they were so different.... maybe it's what drew gracie to bella. bella also found such fascination in the gorgeous tall lean brunette singer, she was kind soft spoken, in love with her dog weenie she came to find out. bella had never been with anyone that passionate not only about what they do but about getting to know the people around her. gracie was attentive to even her friends soph and laur. nothing had happened between the two besides the brief period of time the held hands walking backstage and that was it although Gracie wished it wasn't it. bella although wished the same but also knew Gracie wasn't just some random girl, she was actually starting to really like her, gracie was different in a good way and she couldn't just treat her like a random hookup like she always did in high school.

bella got up fixing her skirt and grabbing her purse while placing her phone inside and such. gracie got up as well waiting for bella

gracie: can i call you guys a cab or uber?
bella: oh i have my... my chauffeur
gracie: right... well let me walk you out at least?
bella: yeah yeah i'd like that
gracie: ok cool *smiles*

sophia rolled her eyes at how cringe but cute her bestfriend bella was being, but she was truly happy for her neither her or lauren had ever seen bella in a genuine relationship at all or even begin to like someone genuinely. The three girls Bella, Sophia, and Lauren all were escorted by gracie's security team while gracie walked out next to bella as they talked walking out of the backstage area with bella's friends behind them

gracie: sooo... are you free tomm?
bella: after school i am
gracie: intresting
bella: *smiles* do you want to hang out?
gracie: yeah if you say so
bella: *giggles* like you didn't entail for me to ask you
gracie: oh i did yup so you'll pick me up tomorrow
bella: hotel lobby 5:00?
gracie: perfect
bella: it's a date? *smiles*
Gracie: if you want it to be
bella: well then yeah it's a date

gracie smiled widely blushing as she was walking and bella glanced over at her as they were walking and her cheeks were flushed red, bella couldn't help but find it adorable... everything about her made her heart warm and she had barley began to start to know her. The group reached the back of the venue parking where bella's limo and shauffer was waiting, he opened the door as soph and laur said by to gracie immediately sliding into the limo leaving gracie outside with bella

bella: so this is it... i'll see you tomorrow gracie
gracie: yeah see you tomorrow

bella hugged gracie her arms wrapped around her waist as the tall singers wrapped around bella's shoulders. the two stayed like that for a couple seconds before bella broke the hug and pulled away holding onto gracie's hand until their fingertips were pulled away as bella walked away into the limo and they drove off. as soon as they left gracie turned around giddy walking back inside where audrey was ready to leave also for bed. gracie entered her green room again skipping and jumping, she threw herself on the couch looking up at the ceiling
