Absolutely void of anything resembling concern or an emotion that would agree with you. Nothing but amusement in her eyes, a raised eyebrow and a half smile.
"You know something little guy? Im not taking no for an answer. You ARE staying with me and thats THAT."
As you were getting ready to curse at her and demand she let you go, you hear the voice if her older sister, Olivia, calling her downstairs to help pack up the kitchen.
Grace rolls her eyes and turns her head towards the door.
"Fine!", she yells.
Your head had been filled with panic, so much so that you thought you could jump off Graces hand and escape in the short amount of time it took for her to not focus on you and answer her sister. You immediatly started to sprint up the length of Graces fingers the moment she turned her head, managing to leap from her finger tip into the open air.
Not a good idea. Now you were free falling to certain death onto Graces table top.
"OHHHH SHIT!! GRACE!! HELP MEEEEEEE!!"
You brace for a crushing impact, burying your head in your arms and shutting your eyes tight. You were certain you were about to die. You could sense a landing was fast approaching. You tense up and wait for it to end, when you definetly land on something, but ot what you were expecting.
You open your eyes and see you were back in the familiar landscape of Graces hand. Rising to your feet, you look back up at her face to see her looking very annoyed with you. The thought of an angry goddess comes to your mind.
"Was that a good idea to you? You could have died you idiot! If anyone is going to kill you its going to be me! Unless you treat me right and do what i tell you! Understand?"
She had a point. That was a dumb idea. Death was something you were i no rush to meet. But this side of Grace that had surfaced, was not one you wanted to be around for long. For the moment though, you figured you should seem obediant to her. If not to hopefully make this easier and provide you an oppurtunity to escape.
"Yes Grace. Im sorry. I understand. Truth of the matter is, your the only one who can keep me safe. Ill do whatever i can for you."
Grace was shocked. To hear her Todd say that to her was a dream come true. But she took it with a grain of salt, acknowleding Todd could just be saying what she wanted to hear.
"Okay. Thats a good start. But dont take me for a idiot Todd. I have to go downstairs now sooooo... i guess i better..."
