|The drunk mind speaks the sober heart.|

Grace's Pov:

I woke up by someone ringing the doorbell. I groaned and stood up. It was still dark outside and when I looked at the clock it was 1 in the morning.

Who can it be at this hour? I rubbed my eyes and walked to the door. I opened it and my eyes widened. Xavier was leaning on another man's shoulder.

"Huh hi! He kinda drank a bit too much and I did not want him to come home alone." The boy explained and I nodded. Xavier sighed looking around but drop his head on the man's shoulder again.

"Careful Xav you are heavy!" The man said still holding him.

"Huh thanks for bringing him home," I said and he nodded my way.

"It's alright-"

"Oh, babe." Xavier came toward me hugging me tightly. He rested his head in the crook of my neck while he wrapped his hand around my waist tightly.

"Shit, do you need help?" The man asked and I shake my head no. The way Xavier hold me already told me that he was not going to leave me any soon.

"I-i will bring him to his room," I said and he sighed.

"Are you sure he is quite a handful when he is drunk." He said and when I was going to say something I felt Xavier rubbing his nose on my neck. I looked at him but he had his eyes closed and that's when I noticed fingerprint on his cheeks. I absent-mindedly passed my fingers on it.

"He got slapped by a girl." The man said and I looked at him frowning.

"Why?" I asked curiously.

"A girl wanted him for the night and was flirting with him but he did not agree and told her that his girl was waiting for him at home and he couldn't cheat on her." He said smirking.

His girl..

"Thank you for bringing him home," I said and he nodded.

"I will get going just told him Ryan drop him home and good luck with him." He said and I nodded. He walked away and I closed the door even if it was a bit hard with Xavier on me.

"Xavier," I called out and he just hmm in reply.

"Can you walk in your room?" I asked and he groaned.

"Yeah let's go I am sleepy." He said and I rolled my eyes. Of course, he will be sleepy. I walked us to his room and he did not pull away from me. I walked toward his bed and stopped there.

"Xavier?" I said.

"Hmm?"

"Take off your suit," I said and he groaned.

"I am tired can you do it ?" He said and I sighed. He unwrapped his hand from my waist and try to stand straight. I take off the suit and put it on the table.

I help him to laid on the bed and was going out when he grabbed my wrist in his hand.

"Stay with me." He murmured and I sighed. I tried to remove his hand but instead, he tightened it. Damn, he is strong for someone who is drunk.

I sighed again before laying beside him. He immediately wrapped his hand around my waist pulling me closer. He laid his head near my neck and closed his eyes. I closed mine too as I was just wanted to sleep!

I woke up again with the freaking doorbell. I tried to stand up but a heavy hand was stopping me. I sighed and tried to remove his hand. I successfully escaped and looked at the clock.

9 am!!

I walked to the front door and opened it. As soon as it opened I felt a small arm wrapped against my legs.

"Gracie!" Squealed Lia my 3 years old cousins.

"Hey, baby," I said hugging her back.

"Oh my god, what the hell are you wearing?" I looked up and saw Samantha holding a crying Jay. Jay was only 1 year old and was still a baby.

"Oh shut up kid will you," Samantha said annoyed. I rolled my eyes and took him from her. He laid his head on my shoulder and calmed down.

"What the f-"

"Language!" I said sternly and Samantha glared at me.

"Take that. And Stacy will pick them up Monday morning." She gave me a bag and I took it. She left without looking back.

"She is a bitch." I gasped at Lia language and closed the door.

"Baby you are not supposed to say words like that," I said and she frowned.

"But mom called her bitch when they talked on the phone." She said and I sighed.

"Well, it's between them adult you shouldn't say everything they said," I said and kissed her forehead. She nodded and smiled.

"Did you just woke up?" She asked looking at my clothes. I chuckled and nodded.

"Come on let's go to my room so that I can change quickly," I said and she nodded. I hold her hand and walked up. Jay was playing with my hair and kept pocking my cheeks.

Once I arrived in my room I put jay on the bed and put some pillow around him.

"Lia, can you watch him while I chang up?" I asked and she nodded.

"I will be right back." I walked into the bathroom and took a quick shower. I dressed up and stepped out.

Lia squealed when she saw me.

"You look pretty." She said and I chuckled.

"Thank you, baby," I said and went near them. I picked Jay up and grabbed Lia's hand.

"Did you two have breakfast?" I asked and Lia shakes her head no.

"We did not have time," she said and I nodded.

"Well let's go and I will make something for both of you," I said walking downstairs. Once we reached the kitchen I went through the drawers to try to find some ingredients. I accidentally found some aspirin and I took it.

Maybe I should put some on Xavier's bed table. When he wakes up, he will need it.
