《Saving Gracie | ✓》Chapter Twenty Five: How Dare You Waste A Gummy Bear!
Advertisement
I watch as Luke talks to Eddie who is in front of him. Eddie is wearing a small grin on his face and his arms are crossed over his chest, obviously listening to what Luke is saying. I lean against the wall, trying to be patient but with every second that passes by, I feel like it just makes us come closer to danger.
When Eddie nods, the conversation coming to an end, Luke shakes his hand and turns around, walking towards me but my eyes are on Eddie who just happens to be helping us with my plan.
Luke had mentioned that Amy's brother was in town the day I told Luke about Amy staying and mine and since Amy's brother didn't really like Eve or Amy, he decided to help us since he liked the idea of getting back at Amy for whatever she did to her brother.
"You okay?" Luke asks, his hands resting on my sides and I snap out of my thoughts, nodding slowly. Luke smiles as I wrap my arms around his neck, placing my lips on his gently. I pull away after a few seconds and smile at Luke.
"Thank you for helping me with this, Luke." I say and Luke chuckles, kissing my forehead.
"Its all good. I just don't like you worrying too much about all of this though. It's going to go just fine." Luke explains to me and I nod, trying to push away my thoughts. Luke grabs my hand and swings it a little, a small smirk on his lips.
"What do you say ditch school and just chill at mine?" Luke suggests and I smile, nodding happily.
"I'd love to."

"Oh we are not starting this again." Luke grumbles as I throw a piece of popcorn at his nose. I let out a laugh and face the television, shoving some popcorn in my mouth.
All of a sudden, I feel something hit my cheek and I look beside me to see a gummy bear looking up at me and I turn to Luke and glare at him.
"How dare you waste a gummy bear!"
"How dare you waste popcorn!" Luke throws back and I roll my eyes and pick up the gummy bear and throw it at Luke since he threw it at me. Almost immediately, hands go to my sides and I squeal when Luke begins to tickle me but before I can say anything, the popcorn falls on the ground as I try to move away from Luke.

Luke stops in shock and he turns to me, waiting for an explanation. I roll my eyes and point at him. "You made me do it." I say and Luke let's out a laugh.
"Yeah because I so dared you to drop popcorn on my floor." Luke says and I shake my head and brush the popcorn off of me. As I go to day something, Luke clicks his fingers together, making me look at him.
"I have a wonderful idea." Luke says and I shake my head.
"All your idea's suck." I say and Luke raises his eyebrow at me.
"So if I said that you were my idea-" I cut Luke off with a squeal as I realise what he was going to say before I interrupted him. I jump off the couch and cross my arms over my chest.
"You are disgusting." I point out and Luke shakes his head.
"Nah, I'm amazing." Luke says and I roll my eyes and grab the plastic bowl and throw it at him, earning a groan from Luke.
"What did you do that for?" Luke asks and I point a finger at him, narrowing my eyes.
"That was because you are dirty minded." I say and Luke smirks.
"But you understood it so what does that make you?" Luke asks, standing up and I drop my arms from my chest and shake my head at him.
"You can't put this back on me." I say and Luke let's out a laugh and crosses his arms over his chest.
"Oh but I did." Luke says and before I can throw the remote that is on the coffee table at him, I hear Luke's phone go off and he turns to grab his phone. I walk over to him and stand by his side, looking at his phone to see that it is a message from Eddie.
As Luke begins to type his reply to Amy's brother, I begin to think about the whole plan.
When I wrote the note saying 'I know what you did', I realised before I wrote it that I couldn't start with the most important part of the plan straight away so that is why I started with the note.
The note has nothing to do with the whole plan, it is just a distraction to make her begin to get confused and curious so hopefully, it is doing what I hoped it would and the plan will go ahead perfectly.

The next part of the plan is getting Amy's brother, Eddie, involved. From what I have heard, Amy thinks that Eddie is dead since she hasn't heard from him ever since Eddie left Germany and it has been a few years since they last talked. Plus, before Eddie left Germany, Eddie and Amy weren't on good terms because Amy didn't want him to leave but Eddie had to because he had got into some dangerous situations and he had to get out of them quickly which is why he left Amy and his father in Germany.
Anyway, Eddie will show up at the school and make an appearance. From what I have imagined in my head, Amy will be shocked and will demand an explanation. That's when Eddie will be saying how he had to leave because of everything with his gang or whatever and Eddie will say that he and Amy have to go back because the people who Eddie started trouble with might go after his father which is somewhat true and Amy would go back.
The reason why I say that the people who Eddie started trouble with will go after his father for revenge and how it is somewhat true is because Eddie actually told Luke that he thought by getting out of Germany, the people would give up but that wasn't the case. The people had contacted Eddie a few days ago saying that if he doesn't come back, they will go after Eddie's father which is dangerous since the people are unpredictable.
The fake part though about all of this is that Eddie will also say to Amy that the only way for the people to leave their father alone is to get Amy involved. Luke and Eddie talked about this some more but I didn't bother to listen because I was too focused about everything.
And if this doesn't work, I have one more thing up my sleeve and even though that it will be risky, I would have to go along with it anyway if I want Amy gone.
I would have to tell Eve about Amy.
Luke keeps convincing me though that I won't have to do that because it will work but a part of me just tells me that I will fail the original plan and I will have to go with ahead plan B.
I just hope luck is on my side for once because I don't want to find myself slowly breaking just like when my mom-
"Gracie." I hear Luke say, bringing me out of my thoughts and I shake my head and frown at him.
"I'm fine." I say and Luke frowns, holding my hand in his. I look down at our hands then back up at Luke to see his eyebrows furrowed.
"Then why are you crying?" Luke asks and I raise my hand up to my face and thats when I realise that I am crying. I wipe away the tears and bite my lip.
Why am I crying? Is it because I was thinking about my mom?
"I... don't know." I say and Luke sighs, pulling my body close to his, his arms wrapping around my small body.
"Don't cry, Grace. I'm here." Luke says quietly and I close my eyes, letting the last tear fall.
"Ow!" I scream, clutching my knee in pain. I notice my mom come running up to me, a small frown on her face as she picks me up from the concrete and standing me on my feet.
"What happened?" My mom asks and I point down at the ground, the tears beginning to fall from my eyes. My mom sighs and pulls me into a hug, her arms wrapping around me tightly.
"Don't cry, Grace. I'm here." My mom whispers as she pecks my forehead and I bite my lip, clutching onto my mom as tight as I can.
"I love you, mom."
Without thinking, my mouth opens to say the words that I never thought would escape my mouth at this moment.
"I love you, Luke."
