Falling From Grace

I'm Sorry

"I didn't mean to make you feel that way," he admitted

"I guess I just caught up, trying not to take sides, that I did end up taking sides," he admitted and Grace just looked away

"I'm sorry," he finished

"So that's it? You think you're just gonna tell me you're sorry with some half baked apology and just expect me to forgive you?" She asked surprised

"Grace, I'm so sorry," he said, taking her hands

"I love you, you know that, ultimately you're my best friend and I've been a jackass and an inconsiderate jerk and I don't deserve you, I'm so sorry," he admitted and she smiled

"I forgave you the day I told you to leave John," she admitted, watching fondly as the biggest smile overtook his face

"You poopy idiot!" John called, playfully swatting her arm, making her laugh

"Have you talked to him since?" John asked, thanking the waitress when se set their plates down and Grace made a face

"Not since I broke his heart," she said with a bitter smile

"Grace," John said in a sigh

"I need to talk to him as soon as possible though. I wanna marry him. Like I thought about it and I was just scared of his love, and that sounds so stupid to me." She admitted

"Like here's this guy who's the most amazing man in the entire world, he smiles and my heart explodes, he tells me he wants to spend forever with me and what do I do? I shy away from him like a coward," she said, rolling her eyes

"Does that sound good to you? Cuz I'm actually a fucking idiot," she said

"You're not an idiot, shut up." John reprimanded

"Look, I think once you talk to Randy and tell him what you told me, I know it's gonna be better. For the both of you." He said putting emphasis on the last statement

"I'll try to catch him tonight," she said

"And you're not an idiot," John said

"You're a dork." He continued and Grace laughed

"Whatever happens, I'm gonna be here for you, and not let you down, you're my best friend and that's a promise." John said and Grace hugged him over the table

After that, Grace was gonna meet Nattie for dinner and she saw Randy come out from the gym. She took a deep breath and went over, grabbing his arm and he flinched at the sudden contact and he glared at the person who grabbed it, his eyes softening when he saw who it was

"Hey Rand," she greeted and he didn't reply, just stared at her. As much as he tried to hate her, those big brown eyes got him every time.

"I uh, I feel like I owe you alot of explanations, can we talk?" She asked

Randy tried to maintain his tough exterior but at her pout he sighed and cracked

"I'm busy tonight but I'll text you or something and we'll talk," he said and she nodded, it was better than nothing after all.

Randy nodded to her and left for his hotel room while she headed out to meet Nat.

Randy huffed and laid on his bed and sighed, he wasn't actually busy, he had no intention of talking to Grace again but after what just happened, it would actually be impossible to avoid her. He didn't know what this talk would be about or what would become of it and here he was, left to anticipate by himself
