(Gaege has something to say to Grant, but he's not sure he can say it. So, he sings./Narrator X Juicy)

Gaege stared down at the guitar in his hands.

"I can do this. I-I can do this."

He was genuinely nervous.

He's loved Grant for so long now, he barely knew how to express it.

He stared down at his hands.

"I've got this."

He picked up the guitar and held it in his hands.

He walked and knocked on Grant's office door.

He was greeted with Lily by his feet.

"Hi, Lily. Hopefully I can sing this to your papa."

He pet her for a moment then knocked.

"Come in!"

"H-Hey, babe. Do you have a minute?"

Grant smiled, putting his headset down.

"Always."

"O-Okay."

"Here, sit down with me."

Gaege sat down next to his lover.

"I'm not s-sure how to say this, so I'm going to sing it to you. I hope you don't mind."

God, he was nervous.

"Baby, I don't mind it all."

"Okay."

Gaege took a deep breath and started to strum. Grant lit up and recognized it.

'I met you in the dark, you lit me up
You made me feel as though I was enough
We danced the night away, we drank too much
I held your hair back when
You were throwing up

Then you smiled over your shoulder
For a minute, I was stone-cold sober
I pulled you closer to my chest
And you asked me to stay over
I said, I already told ya
I think that you should get some rest

I knew I loved you then
But you'd never know
'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go
I know I needed you
But I never showed
But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

I'll wake you up with some breakfast in bed
I'll bring you coffee with a kiss on your head
And I'll take the kids to school
Wave them goodbye
And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night'

At this point Grant was softly crying, he loved Gaege's voice, and he was an absolute sucker for sappy love songs.

'When you looked over your shoulder
For a minute, I forget that I'm older
I wanna dance with you right now
Oh, and you look as beautiful as ever
And I swear that everyday you'll get better
You make me feel this way somehow

I'm so in love with you
And I hope you know
Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold
We've come so far, my dear
Look how we've grown
And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

I wanna live with you
Even when we're ghosts
'Cause you were always there for me when I needed you most

I'm gonna love you 'til
My lungs give out
I promise 'til death we part like in our vows
So I wrote this song for you, now everybody knows
That it's just you and me 'til we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

Just say you won't let go
Oh, just say you won't let go'

Grant was crying hands covering his mouth.

"Gaege, h-honey bunches, that was beautiful."

Gaege was crying too, but not as hard as Grant was.

"I-I...thank you, babe."

Gaege set aside his guitar, and used his hands to wipe Grant's tears.

"Baby, please stop crying."

"I don't know if I can, that was so beautiful."

Gaege kissed Grant's cheeks.

"Oh, baby. You make me so happy."

"Gaege, I love you so much."

"I love you too, Grant."

The purple beanbag in Grant's office served it's purpose, letting the two sleep as Gaege held Grant.
