    “The damage doesn’t look to bad, Ms. Betsy shouldn’t be too hot atch ya. See you tomorrow Wynn.”
    I waved back at him, “Thanks Grier,” and turned to the front door where Collins was waiting for me with her lip gloss covered mouth hanging wide open.
    “I know, I know my mom is gonna kill me for this one. I know granddaddy took good care of his truck.”
    “What happened to the truck? I didn’t see anything. I’m just shocked that Grier Daniels followed a girl home that wasn’t Lexie Brockett and spoke to her without permission, what did you do to that boy?”
    “Nothing,” I replied with a shrug of my shoulders as Collins trailed me back to our room so I could change from my school clothes into the diners uniform which basically consisted of a short sleeve faded blue shirt with the logo in the corner that I paired with jeans and a long sleeve shirt underneath it.
    “Do you think Grams’ll kill me from doing some damage to the truck?”
    “Wynn how in the world did you mess up grandaddys truck, there’s barely any traffic around this town besides those damn golf carts, did some old geezer whip out in front of ya?”
    “No I just got distracted leaving my appointment. Did you know that Griers mom was going to be my therapist?”
    Collins pursed her lips like she was thinking it over and shrugged her shoulders like it was no big deal.
    “I guess that makes sense there’s not many doctors around here, I’m sure she’s probably the only one within a two hour drive. Is that why Grier followed you home?”
    “Yeah,” I replied as Collins followed me out the front door and we headed in the direction of the diner. “Apparently he works there.”
    “Jeez that boy sure does keep busy with football and all. That’s sweet he helps his mama out and all.”
    Yeah sweet I guess, hopefully that boy knows how to keep his mouth shut since there were no other doctors in the area and I knew seeing Dr. Snyde would be good for me in the long run.

Chapter 6
    Grier
    “Hi baby,” Lexie squealed out, jumping from the last step of her house that was basically a mansion with its three stories, ten bedrooms, five bathrooms, home theater and even a freaking elevator. Who really needs an elevator? She wrapped her tan legs around my waist and I breathed in the scent of her familiar perfume.
    “What took you so long, you kept me waitin’ forever,” she asked as I set her down and grabbed her hand to tug her along as she followed me back to my truck.
    “Just had to help mama out with a few things at the office.”
    She huffed out a breath through her pretty lips. “Really Grier I do not know why you need to help out, your mama can afford to hire some help when that old bat Ms. Shirley needs to leave to take care of those little brats. If Mary Ellen can’t handle them herself, she shouldn’t have gotten knocked up when she was still in high school.”
    “Princess,” I answered back as I opened up the door for her and boosted her into the truck. “You know I just like to go there after school and practice, gives me a little bit of quiet time.”
     Between football, which practically took up all of my free time, keeping up my grades, my dad constantly on my ass about my game play, and Lexie I barely got any free time and my moms office had a serene feeling to it which I’m sure helped with the clientele she had.
    I walked over to my side of the truck but not before seeing the roll of Lexies made up eyes through the windshield. Lexie Brockett had never worked a day in her life with the money her daddy basically rolled around in and I don’t think she was planning on doing much after our senior year besides following me around wherever I landed. She just didn’t understand why I actually liked working.
    “I know Grier,” she rested her blonde curls on my shoulder and ran her small hand up my leg.
    “But wouldn’t it be so much more fun to spend some quiet time with your girlfriend,” she asked in a sugary
