Reminder: This is my very first Sims 4 family, which was originally posted back in 2015. I’m in the process of moving these posts over from my Tumblr page. See more info here!
Kisha overslept and now has to drag herself out of bed and hurry straight to school.
Most of the food that Ray prepared ahead of time has now spoiled. Greg is stuck having a microwave breakfast pastry.
Greg glances up at the wall at some of Trent’s wedding photos. Even he has to admit that it was a beautiful wedding. Greg can only wonder if he’ll ever have the opportunity to express his love for anyone in that way.
Greg heads to the science facility for his first day of work, but as he drags himself to the building…he realizes that maybe he should have taken some time off to finish mourning.
Jaycee: *turns back to her computer* Oh, great…this time they sent the newbie to me. *continues working*
Gregory: So, umm… do you have my first assignment. I was told to ask you for some type of crystal.
Jaycee: I can’t help you with that. Just go outside and try to dig up something useful!
Gregory: Like what?
Jaycee: I don’t know…you’re a scientist…go discover something.
Greg realizes from his not-so-helpful conversation with Jaycee that he’s basically on his own here at the science facility. He actually prefers it that way. The facility is huge…with plenty to discover. Greg starts out digging for collectibles…then decides to see what he could discover by fishing in the nearby pond.
Greg’s shift goes by quickly. He takes some time to fix the coffee machine, then heads home promptly at 7 pm. He has something very important to take care of.
Gregory: Kisha! Just the person I wanted to see!
Kisha: What?
Gregory: I need you to bake a cake for me.
Kisha: Why?
Gregory: It’s Abrey’s birthday. I want him to have a birthday cake.
Kisha: Why don’t you make it then?
Gregory: I’ve been at work digging all day. I need to take a shower. I don’t have time to do both. So…will you bake one for me?
Kisha: I don’t know how!
Gregory: Just read the directions on the box. Please…I’m begging you!
Kisha: Okay…but only because I like Abrey so much.
Gregory: You’re the greatest!
Kisha goes into the kitchen and finds a dusty old box of cake mix in the cabinets. Ray never used cake mix…he baked all of his cakes from scratch.
Mitzi: What are you doing Kisha?
Kisha: Greg wanted me to bake a cake for Abrey.
Mitzi: For Abrey? Why?
Kisha: It’s his birthday and Greg just has to give him a cake.
Mitzi: I was right! Greg really likes Abrey, doesn’t he?
Kisha: It appears that way.
Kisha finishes the cake and places it on the table. Greg is thrilled when he sees it!
Gregory: Thank you so much! It’s perfect *gives Kisha a big hug*
Kisha: *shocked* No problem!
Gregory: Ok…I have to meet Abrey!
Kisha walks over to the couch where Mitzi is sitting.
Kisha: Mom…Greg just gave me a hug. I can’t remember the last time Greg gave me a hug.
Mitzi: He did? It’s more serious than we thought.
Kisha: Definitely
Greg and Abrey meet at Founder’s Park.
Gregory: Happy birthday Abrey! I have something for you…
They run over to a nearby picnic table.
Abrey: Aww… you baked me a cake!
Gregory: Well… I actually asked my sister Kisha to bake it, but yes…it’s all for you!
Abrey blows out his candles and ages up while Greg sings a terrible rendition of Happy Birthday.
After blowing out the candles…
Abrey: Bad news…
Gregory: What?
Abrey: I can’t eat the cake…chocolate makes me break out.
Gregory: Well…more for me.
Abrey sits and watches Greg finish off a piece of cake.
Abrey: Sorry I couldn’t have any…it looks so good.
Gregory: That’s okay… seeing you smile is all that matters.
Abrey: I’ve been smiling since I met you.
Gregory: Me too…which is unusual for me.
Abrey: This is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.
After an awkward silence, Greg moves in close enough that Abrey can feel his breath on his face…
Gregory: Is it weird that I want to kiss you really bad right now?
Abrey: No…I want you to.
Greg closes his eyes and moves in to kiss Abrey, but totally misses his lips; kissing his chin instead.
Gregory: *embarrassed* I’m sorry…I’ve never kissed anyone before.
Abrey: *chuckles* That’s okay… it still felt good.
Greg gets over his embarrassment long enough to join Abrey in laughing off their awkward first kiss. Then Greg grabs Abrey’s hands and gets serious again.
Gregory: I’ve been thinking long and hard about this…and I want to be in a relationship with you. I want to be more than friends.
Abrey: Are you sure?
Gregory: I’m sure about how I feel. That’s all that matters to me.
Abrey: I want to be more than friends too.
Greg, feeling relieved, pulls Abrey in and hugs him tight.
Gregory: Thank you for making me so happy!
It’s late and Greg has to be at work in the morning, so he and Abrey say their goodbyes for the night. Greg’s embarrassment over the botched first kiss creeps up on him momentarily but goes away as soon as he begins to think about taking this new step in his relationship with Abrey.
