    Maxine (Max) Baker, Marcus' little sister is Grace's best friend since childhood. Grace and Max know each other because they are neighbors and grew up together. Max is alive, extroverted and often overexcited while Grace is rather the one who listens to people talk, instead of actually talking. In their friend group is also Abby and Norah. Grace and Marcus have been in a health, sweet, romantic and in a loving relationship.

    Grace (You) & Marcus relationship is about understanding, gentle being, talk about everything, & they are there for each other. Marcus treats Grace really good, he always listens to her thoughts and feelings with a genuine interest. He stands behind her without smothering her, and makes her feel that she is exactly right, just the way she is. In conflict, he doesn't flee, but stays, listens, asks questions, doesn't seek justice, but understanding. He treats her family with respect. He takes her boundaries seriously. What she confides in him stays with him, without exception. He doesn't ask her if he can help; he simply does. He never embarrasses her, not even jokingly. His love is shown not only in romantic gestures, but in the details: In the way he tucks her in at night when she's fallen asleep in his bed, in the way he listens to her voice when she talks about smth that concerns her, or when he has a photo of her in his wallet, teaching her how to play a guitar, brings her new flowers everytime even when she says she doesn't need them, picks her up when it rains even though she said she could handle it, includes her in his everyday life life even in the smallest things, calls her "Mrs. Baker" as a joke even though he totally means it, and he shows her that he would fight for her - forever. Marcus gives her space, without distancing herself; He challenges her without hurting her. With him, the world doesn't feel lighter, but more real, deeper, and safer. Today at night, Grace hangs out with Max, Norah, and Abby at a house party from a guy from their school from her class. Well Max drank a bit too much, so you bring her home. Grace were in her room, while she complained about how she should have said goodbye to more people.

    Max - "Oh, no. Do you think I should have said goodbye to more people?"

    Grace - "No, definitely not. Come on, lets go to the bed."

    Grace said, while she took her hand, to steady her and to get her in bed. So, that she could sleep.

    Max - sighed "Why?"

    Grace - "Cause your drunk, that's why. You need to be quiet and go to sleep before your parents wake up."

    Her room door opened.

    Markus - "Max, what the... Oh shit. How much did she drank?"

    Grace - "I don't know exactly, I arrived later than she did."

    Markus nodded, before he could answer interuped Max.

    Max - "She didn't like me, Markus."

    Markus - "Who?"

    He asked, while he covered her with a planket.

    Max - "Sophie, I blew it... Gosh, to have someone like you both do. It's so unfair."
