Grace held onto his coat tightly as she said softly, "I came to see you."

"You came to see me without telling me?" Xander couldn't control his temper. "Do you know what kind of person Sean is? How could you just go in?"

"I don't know. I just wanted to give you a surprise. Hazel said you were at Fortress, so I came over." Grace felt wronged.
