Gracies First Breakup

Gracies POV (15 Years Old)

I stood outside my apartment building with tears in my eyes. I swallowed down a sob before walking up the stairs fully intending to wallow in my bed until my brothers came home. I used my key to unlock the door and closed it behind me,

"Is that you Gracie?" I heard someone ask from the kitchen. Will? Crap! What's he doing home? Before I had a chance to reply he walked out of the kitchen and in to the hallway, frowning as soon as he saw my tear streaked face "what's the matter?" He asked concerned. Like floodgates had been opened the tears fell unwillingly out of my eyes. Without saying a word Will took my backpack off my shoulder before allowing me to sob in to his chest. Once my sobs died down slightly he led me over to the sofa and sat down next to me "talk to me sweetie" he urged "what's happened?" He asked with a face full of concern,

"It's nothing, I'm just being stupid" I shook my head and looked at me unconvinced,

"It's obviously not nothing Gracie" he stated obviously "c'mon, if you don't tell me then how am I gonna make it better?" He questioned and new tears sprang to my eyes,

"You can't make this better" I said as the tears silently poured once again "me and Luke broke up" I admitted and Will sighed,

"Oh Gracie, c'mere" he said as he pulled me back in for a hug and kissed the top of my head. We stayed like that for what felt like an eternity before Will disappeared off to the kitchen and came back with a glass of water for me,

"Thanks" I said as I took it from him and took a small sip,

"So...what happened?" He questioned gently. I couldn't tell him I caught him kissing another girl. He would freak out. Then he would definitely tell Jay and he would most probably end up in prison,

"I don't wanna talk about it" I said simply and Will sighed as he pushed some of my hair away from my face,

"You sure? It might help" he urged but I shook my head,

"Trust me. It won't" I insisted and Will nodded,

"Ok" he defeated "but if you do decide you wanna talk about it I'm always here, ok?" He reminded and I nodded with a light smile,

"Thanks Will" I said as I rested my head on his shoulder.

Wills POV

I shuffled my way off of the sofa without waking a sleeping Gracie and covered her over with a blanket. Everything was so much simpler before boys had to come in to the equation. Maybe she would consider becoming a nun...no that's stupid. But it would definitely stop anything like this happening again.

I decided to leave Gracie to sleep and I busied myself on my computer until I heard Jay walk through the front door,

"Hey" he greeted and I singled for him to be quiet and he looked over at the sleeping Gracie "what, did you knock her out?" He smirked and I shook my head before gesturing for him to follow me in to my bedroom where we could talk a little louder,

"Luke and Gracie broke up" I told him and a fairly unreadable expression flashed across my brothers face,

"What did he do?" He asked and I rolled my eyes at him,

"She hasn't told me anything Jay so don't jump to conclusions" I said firmly "she came in crying her eyes out then passed out on the sofa" I explained,

"I swear to god, if that kid has do-" I cut him off with a serious glare,

"Jay stop" I demanded "Gracie is seriously upset about this. She's fifteen she thinks her life has just ended" I reminded "if she wants to tell us then she will, but you and I both know how stubborn she can be. She isn't gonna tell us anything if we try and make her" I said and he sighed in defeat,
