Chapter 9 One Big Happy Family, Again

The surgery went well and Grace was out of the hospital after a few days. She continued to work even though she was supose to stay at home and rest. The others kept a watchful eye on her every single day in case she fainted or felt light headed and lightened the workload so she didn't have a lot of pressure. To them it felt like a proper family again though Boyd and Grace still argued but most of the time they agreed on most things.
It was a Tuesday morning and Mel and Spence were at their desks. Grace came in with Frankie and all four of them sat down.

"What exactly are we doing here?" Grace asked.

Spence shrugged. "No idea. All Boyd said was that we needed to be here before he arrived."

"Morning all!" Boyd called out asa he entered the main office.

"Morning !." they all choursed back. Boyd walked up to them.
"I just wanted to say that since the incident I want to apologise about my behaviour to all of you especially you, Grace. I know what I did was unforgiveable but my temper got the better of and I promise I will try to control my anger."

"It's fine sir we knew you didn't mean to hit Grace but we just got very upset and angry and did not know what to do. We just want to say we're sorry if we caused any more guilt on you." Spence said.

"No sir actually Spence is the one who wants to say sorry because he was the one who was blaming you." Mel stated.

"What!? You two were both in it as well." Spence said defensivley.

Frankie and Mel both shook their heads. "No, you were the one who was angry. We were just agreeing with you because you always want to be right." Frankie told him.

Grace and Boyd left the three younger members banter on while they headed towards Boyd's office. Mel noticed them leave and leant across toward the other two.

"Guys, I wonder what is happening in there?" she asked slightly anxious.

"Let's hope not another argument!" Spence answered as he knew that was the last thing that they'd would want to have happened after the incident before.

While the younger members of the team were thinking about what was going on in the office, Boyd and Grace were talking.

"Grace, I just want to say that when you suddenly collapsed I felt so guilty and thought that you might die because I'd hit you. That thought was the worse one I have ever had. Thinking that you were dead because of me made me realize how much you mean to me. I could have never have forgiven myself if that had happened." Boyd told her.

"Boyd, it wasn't the fact that you hit that made me collapse." Grace started to say.

Boyd looked confused. "But you weren't feeling dizzy before I hit you?"

"No that's not true. Over the past few weeks I've been feeling a little queer but didn't say anything because I didn't want any fuss."

"You should of have said something."

Grace sighed. "I know."

Boyd leant over a kissed her cheek. "Grace we care about you. If there is something wrong you can tell us."

Grace felt a tingle and her stomach fluttering as soon as Boyd kissed her. Her heart felt light. Boyd smiled at her. He knew that over the past few years they have been working with each other he suddenly realized that he had feelings for her. Not justr friends but something more, but he didn't know if Grace felt the same way. Outside the others were starting to get worried when they could still hear silence.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Frankie asked the other two.

They nodded.

"Yeah, how could Boyd loose his temper again!" Spence said.

Frankie glared at him. "That's not what I'm talking about!"

"Spence, what Frankie is trying to say is that she thinks that the reason why it is so quiet in the office is that probably they have made up." Mel explained to him.

"Oh, right." Spence said. He leaned back on his chair. At the corner of his eye he could see into Boyd's office just a teeny bit and saw something that he didn't imagined he would see.

CRASH!!!! Spence fell of his chair.

Both Mel and Frankie jumped.

"What happened?" Mel asked Frankie helped Spence up.

Spence shook his head trying to get the image out of his head. "Nothing."

Both of the women looked at him sternly.

"You know you thought that they were apologising to each other well they are. And I don't mean the oral one I mean they're kissing." Spence said.

"No way!" they both exclaimed.

Spence nodded. "Yes, way."

The other two looked towards the office and saw what Spence had seen. Indeed they were kissing so it seemed to them that they had in fact made up. All them smiled. They knew that Boyd and Grace always had feelings for each other and now they both knew the truth though it did take them seven years to admit their feelings

THE END
