Bella snorts, trailing behind her. “Same with Grayson.”
“Grayson grabbed you a plate. Forced everyone to wait until he had your food.”
Her lips twitch. “Of course he did.”

Kieran turns to me. “I saved you a plate too. I didn’t know what you would want so I got a little of everything.”
And there goes my heart, joining my ovaries and crying right alongside her.
