I turned when I heard a door open and saw the bathroom door open with a guy standing in front of it, in just a pair of sweats. His short dark brown hair was messy, making him look ver cute and also look like he had just got out of bed; and from the way he was yawning I assumed he probably did. He looked in the direction of me and my brother and once I caught a glimpse of his dark blue eyes I instantly knew who it was; Nick.
My eyes widened at him, and I turned to my brother. "What's he doing here?" I asked while pointing at Nick.
My brother opened his mouth to say something but Nick cut in. "It's nice to see you too Gracie." He said sarcastically while walking into the kitchen and pouring himself some orange juice.
I rolled my eyes and looked at my brother waiting for him to continue, "Well, Nick is our other roommate." He said with a small nervous smile, my eyes widened, and I heard Nick choke on his orange juice.
"What?!" We both asked making me see he obviously wasn't told about this either.
No wonder he wouldn't tell me who our roommate was, I definitely wouldn't have agreed to come live here.
"What are you talking about?!" We both said again, we looked at each other, glared a little, and then looked back at Frankie.
"Would you guys calm down? It's not that bad." Frankie shrugged.
Nick looked like he was gonna say something but I cut in. "What do you mean not that bad? I can't live with him! Why didn't you tell me it was him? I could have found another place!" I yelled.
He put his hands on my shoulders to calm me down. "Gracie, face it. You would not have been able to afford an apartment in Manhattan by yourself with what you were making back in California, It would have been impossible. And I was not gonna let you give up on this job offer. This has been your dream since you were five, you're not gonna give it up over a stupid thing like this." He took a deep breath and then looked over at Nick, "And you are not going anywhere either. I know you both don't get along but it's been almost over a year since you saw eachother maybe things changed. So we're all gonna stick this out, we're all adults now and you sometimes have to do things you don't like. Like I said you're both not going anywhere." He finished and picked my bags up bringing them to the spare room down the hall while muttering something under his breath that sounded close "And that's the end of that tune." leaving me and Nick standing there staring at each other, not sure what to say or do.
I really loved the plot and the dialogues and I really smilled probably the whole time I was reading,so its great but there was disturbing amount of eye rolling going on on the whole book.
I wanted to read this book, based upon the description, but the grammar was atrocious. An author—or at least, the editor—she know the difference between “there” and “their,” when to use a comma versus a semicolon, and word usage such as “childhood” versus “child hood.” I couldn’t even make it through the first chapter.
