By the time we got home it was 8:00pm and I was exhausted. I wanted my bed.

I shut the car door waving goodbye to the girls and watched them drive off.

I opened the front door and was hit with the smell of warm cookies. I followed the smell into the kitchen where i saw Cohen, Grace and my mum eating cookies on the counter smiling at something.

Wow Grace has been here once and has already met my mum. She must be really nice.

Everyone looked up at me when they heard me walk in and smiled.

"Hi honey did you have a nice time" my mum signed to me.

"Yes it was really good" I signed back smiling thinking to the day I just had.

"That's good hon. Do you want a cookie?" She offered handing them out in front of me.

I took one and gave her a thank you nod.

I looked towards Cohen and he looked really happy with Grace by his side. I have never seen him look at a girl like that only knowing her a day but it was nice.

" have a nice time Stelly" he said out loud.

"Yes it was great. I see you and Grace are having a nice time as well" When I said this Grace blushed and tried to hide her smile.

"Yep" He said looking down at her and smiling at her blushing state.

I told them all goodnight and headed up to my room.

My night consisted of having a shower and watching How I met your mother.

The last thing I saw before I closed my eyes was Barney in a suit.

...........................................................................

I felt a nudge on my shoulder telling me to get up for school. I moved my hands a little telling whoever it was I'm awake.

I got out of my warm bed and trudged into the bathroom. Washing my face and brushing my teeth.

I pinned a little of my hair back and left the underneath down. I threw on a cropped grey jumper and red shorts. I didn't know what shoes to wear so I shoved on my high top white converse.

After my makeup and perfume was applied I made my way downstairs. Everyone was up and ready including Cohen who was sitting on a stool drinking orange juice.

"Good morning" i moved my hands to sign and then looked straight at Cohen and motioned towards the car.

"Okay I'm coming" Cohen got up and grabbed the keys.

"Bye have a lovely day" My mum signed to me kissing the top of my head.

My dad just signed a quick I love you bye and I left.

The ride there was as usual boring and short.

We arrived and I went straight to Charlotte who was standing by her car waiting for me.

When she saw me she smiled and made her way over.

"How are you this fine morning?" It was hard to read through her massive grin that was plastered on her face.

"Um good" I said wearily.

Why is she grinning like a Cheshire Cat?

"What's up with you? Why are you grinning like a creep?" I asked laughing.

"Elliot kinda asked me on a date last night" She told me.

"Oh my god Charlotte that's amazing" I'm really happy for her.

"I know. He's hot too" Of course that's what she thinks about.

The rest of the group joins us as we walk through the doors.

But then we split as we walk to our lockers.

I was just walking when I felt my bag being taken of my shoulder. My head snapped to the right to see Ace holding it for me.

"I can hold my own bag you know" I joked.

He just looked at me and smirked.

"Why when I can hold it for you?"

Why does he have to be so sweet?

He's supposed to be a dick.

"Whatever Shitface give it back" I tried insulting him but the fat smile on my face told him I was only kidding.

"Ouch. Shitface again" His soft pink lips moved to the words.

"Yup that's your name. You know Ace turns into shitfACE" i over exaggerated the ace at the end of face.

"I get it deafy" His eyes twinkled in amusement.

Dick.

And not the good kind.

"That's just low" I put my hand on my heart and faked being hurt.

"Sorry princess" when I saw what his lips said my heart skipped a beat and butterflies swarmed my stomach.

I like that.

"Shut up Ace" I grabbed my bag of him and put my books into my locker after making sure I had eveything I need.

I turned to see Ace still standing next to me.

"Do you need something?" I questioned seriously.

"Nope" he shook his head and carried on standing there.

"What are you waiting for them?" My eyebrows hunched together waiting for him to answer.

"You" He replied nonchalantly.

Okay. Someone give me a butterfly net to catch the ones fluttering in my belly.

I just stared at him in his blue beautiful eyes and he did the same in mine.

An unreadable look shone in them.

Being deaf it's quite easy to read someone's expression and eye emotions but he's just different.

"Let's go then" I walked around him and headed to my class.

Ace walking beside me with my bag in his hand.

What the hell is happening?
