I only realise where i am walking when i arrive outside of his door, i am knocking on the wood, still shivering from the cold night and desperate to see the one person who can make me feel any better.

"Grace?" He answers the door, surprised to see me and even more surprised by my appearance, i feel fresh tears fill up my eyes and i fall into his arms. He holds me and we stand in the doorway for a while, he doesn't ask me any questions, he just wraps his arms round me. Eventually, i feel brave enough and stand back, looking up his perfect face. Still, he doesn't break the silence but leads me inside, his arm round my shoulders and he sits us down on the sofa. He takes my hands in his and looks, concerned, at me. "Are you ready to tell me what happened yet?" I take a deep breath in, "Jason is cheating on me." It's all i have to say and he takes me back in his arms, this time he holds me tighter. "Grace, i am so sorry." He whispers, resting his head on my shoulder. I sit back, wiping away my tears with my jacket, sniffing slightly. Dan sighs and looks directly into my eyes, "Ok...listen Grace. I didn't want to tell you this yet but..." My eyes widen, wondering what he is going to say. "Grace, these past few moths have been the best of my life, i want to spend every second with you. Grace, what i'm trying to say is...i love you. No scrap that, i'm in love with you. Jason's been treating you like crap and you deserve so much better, i love you Grace." My heart is pounding, and i am stunned to say the least. "Say something Grace." He whispers and in reply i lean forward and kiss him. His hands hold my head and mine rest on his neck. Our lips intertwine and then i pull away and realise what exactly is happening. His eyes follow mine as i sit back and my hands slip from his neck and fall to my lap. I stand up, completely overwhelmed by the situation. "What is it?" My hand goes to my forehead, trying to think straight, what am i doing? I'm still technically going out with Jason and how is what i have just done any worse than what he has done to me? "I'm sorry Dan, this is all just too much right now." He stands up but i am out of the door before anything else can happen.

I half walk, half run back. Wow, walking out on two different men in one evening was really emotionally tough. But the hardest part was now, deciding what to do next. One thing was for certain, whatever i did, someone was going to get hurt, the question was who? Never in a million years had i thought that Dan would pour his heart out to me, i had admired him for years and like every other fan, dreamed of being his girlfriend, but now that it had happened it seemed scary, too real. And then there was Jason, my long term boyfriend, the only man i had ever been with. My head told me to stick with him, that we can work it out like we've done before and that there would be a explanation. But i can't ignore my heart, screaming to go with Dan, the person who made me laugh till i cried, but did i want to jepodise our friendship and be thrown into his limelight? How on earth could i decide between my head and heart?

I come to my decision as i arrive at the flat, was this the right choice? I breathe heavily out as i pull out my keys from my bag and let myself back in my flat. I walk slowly to the kitchen and see Jason leaning over the sink and crying. "Jase?" I say quietly, and he looks up. "Grace, i called her and its all over. I love you and i'm going to change, i swear down to you. And to prove it." I watch in shock as he bends down on one knee and takes my hand in his, "Marry me Grace, let me make it up to you for the rest of my life. I want you in my life and i'm not going to mess this up anymore." I stand there, looking down at him, he is begging and still crying. I search my mind for the answer, what is the right thing to do here? This evening has been so crazy, i have been caught off of guard so many times. I sigh, "Yes, of course i will Jay." I smile and get down on the floor with him, we share a (wet) kiss. "I'm sorry, i don't have a ring. I didn't know that i was going to propose tonight." I laugh and hug him but half of mind is still wondering whether i made the right choice.
