Grace came into work the next morning and headed straight to the change rooms. She was distracted as she put her stuff in her locker and pulled off her jumper to begin getting changed for the day.
"Morning," Stella said to Grace when she walked in. She didn't get an answer, which she didn't expect seeing as Grace hated her at the moment. But she couldn't help noticing that Grace was distracted by something.
She shrugged it off as she walked out of the change room.
Ten minutes later, when they were ready to go out, and Grace still hadn't shown up, she realised she shouldn't have.
"Where's Grace?" Lawson asked angrily. After the time Dom had turned up extremely late for work anytime someone needed time off, or, was late, he took it personally and got annoyed about it.
"She was in the change room ten minutes ago," Stella spoke up. "But she looked distracted. She was on auto-pilot and changing really slowly."
"I'll go check on her," Josh spoke up. And, before anyone could say anything he was off to the change rooms. He walked in, and saw Grace standing there with her shirt off, looking at the wall.
He came up behind her and put his arms around her. She jumped and turned around. "Jesus Josh,' she said annoyed.
"Sorry. You ok?"
"Sure," she said confused. He noticed the sad look on her face, and the look in her eyes. She had been crying.
"Only," he prompted. "You've been here for ten minutes and in that time, only managed to take your top off."
Grace blushed and walked over to her locker putting her shirt in and pulling out the one she needed to change into, which, she had left in there accidently. As she did so, a book fell out.
Josh raised an eyebrow, bending down and picking the book up – beating Grace to it. "A book?" he asked. "This has all been over a book?"
Grace finished changing, and walked over the door, stopping so she could look around at him. "Not any book Josh," she told him. "A tragedy."
