A/N: This is just a little fic for Valentine's Day! It isn't complete yet, but please R/R and more will be posted!
"But Grace..." Luke argued.
Grace and him walked into the cafeteria and she said, "Don't but Grace me, Girardi."
As Luke stepped into the line for food he said, "Grace we doing something for Valentine's Day!"
"No we aren't!"
"You know what, fine! Go be alone, you always love being alone! Just be alone for the rest of your life!" Luke slammed his tray down and stormed out of the cafeteria.
Grace paid for her food then went and found Joan. She sat down next to her and pushed her food away.
"You okay?" Joan asked while she took a bite of her peach cobbler.
"I'm fine!" snapped Grace.
"Ya sure, cause the whole cafeteria, Adam, and I heard you fighting with Luke."
"Don't say his name!" At this a tear trickled down her cheek.
"Whoa, Grace, you are not okay." Adam said, who was sitting next to Joan.
"I'm fine!" Grace repeated and she ran out of the cafeteria.
Joan looked at Adam and said, "Okay, something major is going on."
"Yeah, Grace hardly ever cries," Adam agreed, "Well, I gotta go. I'm helping your mom get ready for the art show."
"Okay." Joan said giving Adam a kiss.
As Adam left, the Goth God sat down next to Joan. He said, "Grace needs help."
"I know, I know." Joan shrugged, "But what am I supposed to do?"
"You remember when you and Adam had your fights?"
"Ha, yeah."
"Well this is Luke and Grace's first fight."
"What are you talking about! Luke and Grace fight everyday!"
"Just go see Grace." Said the Goth God as he got up. He turned away and waved over his shoulder.
Joan yelled after him, "It's always something isn't it!"
Some kids in the cafeteria looked at Joan and she quietly said, "Oh, hi…"
Joan got up and walked out of the cafeteria to find Grace. She went into the bathroom only to find Grace sitting in the corner, crying. Joan walked over to her and said, "Grace, what happened?"
Grace sniffled and said, "You were there Girardi, you heard."
Joan sat down next to her and replied, "I didn't hear the beginning, and we really didn't hear the end."
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Please Grace, I want to help…"
"Agh, fine. Well your stupid brother wanted to do something for Valentine's Day and I told him no, but he kept on insisting. Then finally he said…" Grace stopped.
"What did he say?"
"He told me to be alone for the rest of my life." Grace then put her head in her knees and cried.
"Oh Grace, you don't think he…broke up with you, do you?"
Grace whipped her head up and snapped, "Yes, Girardi! He did alright! He broke up with me!"
Joan didn't say anything for a minute but then grabbed Grace's arm and started to drag her out of the bathroom.
"Where are you talking me?" Grace said trying to pull away.
"To find Luke."
"Oh no we're not." Grace broke free of Joan's grasp and said, "I'm not seeing that stupid-genius-science lover-geek brain-know it all!"
"You know Grace you are. Stop trying to fight things. Sure be anti, but that won't stop your true feelings. I know you love Luke and he loves you! This fight was just testing you guys! Please Grace…" Joan sighed.
Grace looked stunned and said, "Girardi, your right."
"I am?"
"I told you brother that-that I'd never fall in like… And I didn't… I-I feel in love." Grace stood there for a minute and said, "Gotta go, Girardi."
Grace ran out of the bathroom and to the science closet. She tried opening the door, but it was locked. She knocked on the door and Luke yelled, "Who is it?"
"Grace." She replied.
"Back to argue?"
"No. Can you just open the door?"
"Agh, fine." Luke went and opened the door. Grace walked in, set her backpack down, and said, "So what are we doing for Valentine's Day?"
"What!" Luke said sounding shocked.
Grace sighed and said, "Your sister talked to me and helped me realize something."
"What's that?"
"That I didn't fall in like…"
Luke looked at Grace with adoring eyes, "Grace, are you saying what I think your saying?"
Grace smiled and said, "Yes Luke, I love you."
"Are you serious?"
"Yes, yes Luke."
"I-I love you too Grace."
Grace kissed Luke and asked, "So what are we doing for Valentine's Day?"
Luke and Grace sat on the floor with Luke's arm around Grace's waist and he replied, "Um, well I had planned to go out to dinner and to the Valentine's Day dance."
"So where are we going for dinner?"
Luke smiled happily and said, "Benihana's."
"I don't think I've been there."
"Well, we will make this dinner special."
The bell rang and both of them got up as Grace said, "Wait, what time?"
"Um, I haven't made reservations yet. I didn't think you would go."
"Ha, you think you know me so well."
"Well this dinner tonight will let me."
Grace walked out of the science closet, still with Luke's arm around her.
