Secret relationships weren’t Grayson Davenport Hawthorne’s style. And they weren’t yours either. But despite the fact that it was, indeed, a secret relationship, it felt like much more. After trying your food in Prague, Jameson and Avery practically begged for you to come to America- and cook at Hawthorne House. When Grayson tries your food for the first time, he audibly groans. Grayson Hawthorne groaned. The air of stoicism and calmness immediately dissipated once he tried your Svíčková. He kept coming back for more. Soon, sparks began to fly. You practically never left the kitchen, and he would always find you there while looking for a midnight snack as you were cooking up a new recipe. You and Grayson had never explicitly said it was a secret relationship, and neither of you anticipated that you would, ever, explicitly say it was. Because that phrase, secret relationship? It has the word relationship. Which is one thing nor you or Grayson are ready for, and maybe you never would be.
