Chloe/Nathanial

School had finished and it was raining heavily. Chloe frowned and made a mental note to fire her driver. He was late and left her standing outside of school alone. "Ugh, my hair will be ruined if he doesn't show up soon." She said to no one.

Nathanial excited the school, holding his sketch book and an umbrella. He stood near Chloe and opened his umbrella. He gave her a small shy smile. She turned away from him. Nathanial looked down and sighed. "You don't have to be so mean you know. I'm just trying to be friendly." Chloe scoffed. "Me be friends with you? As if." Nathanial frowned. "I am not saying that we should become BFFs or anything. I am just saying that you could be nicer. Even a little." Chloe glared at him. "And why would I do that?" He blinked at her. "A small act of kindness occasionally, would improve how people think of you. It doesn't take much." He gave her another small smile and started walking home.

A clap of thunder made Chloe squeak. Nathaniel thought for a moment. He put his sketch book safely away in his bag and walked towards Chloe. She glared at him. Her eyes cold. "What?" She said harshly. He gave a gentle smile as he held out his umbrella. Her eyes softened as she glanced at him and the handle. Another thunder clap was heard but Chloe didn't hear it. He motioned her to take it. She hesitantly reached out and grabbed the handle. She gave him a tiny smile. He grinned. "See you tomorrow." He said shyly as he started to walk home. Chloe went wide eyed. "Um…yeah. Bye." She said quietly. She looked down and smiled.

She started to walk home, since her driver wasn't there. Suddenly, a familiar white limo pulled up. Her driver quickly got out. "I am so sorry that I am late Miss. It won't happen again." He was practically on his knees apologizing. She was about to fire him but she looked at the umbrella in her hand. "It's…its fine. Just get me home. Please." She said softly and she walked up to her car. The driver went wide eye and grinned. "Thank you." He said as he got into the driver seat. Chloe smiled.
