Chloe sat in her class at Salem U, trying really hard to keep her mind on her classes. Unfortunately, she had trouble seeing anything other than Brady's face. Brady denied being jealous when Chloe watched Phillip give Belle her present, a diamond bracelet, but Chloe knew he was lying. Brady wasn't one to hide his emotions well, especially from her. "Ms. Lane" her instructor called, jarring Chloe from her memories. A few students snickered at her obvious lack of attention, but Chloe ignored them she was used to that. "Yes, sir" she asked apologetically. The instructor didn't say too much he knew about this particular student's health history. He was amazed that she had come this far after coming into the class mid- semester. "Do you have your homework?" "Oh, yeah, sorry" she mumbled handing him her paper. "You are feeling okay?" the instructor asked gently. Chloe nodded "yeah, just been distracted lately" she said. "Don't let too many things distract you" Ms. Haines spoke softly, "you've come very far and are doing so well." "Thanks" Chloe smiled gratefully collecting her books and walking into the hall. She was still thinking about things, mostly Brady, but other things too, when she ran right into him, as if he came right out of her thoughts. "Hey" he steadied her "are you okay?" Chloe nodded "yes," she answered "just not looking where I was going?" Brady smirked "thinking about anyone in particular?" "Maybe" she shrugged "grinning, but not anybody you'd know." Brady smiled, but said nothing. "what are you doing here?" she asked him. Brady shrugged "nothing really, just thought you might want a ride home" he said. "Where's my chariot. Fair prince" she mocked. Brady smiled "This way, m'lady" he played along taking her hand. Brady and Chloe walked hand-in-hand to his jeep, while Phillip watched from a nearby bench. Phillip scowled at them, he was determined that Chloe would be his someday, but as usual Brady was standing in his way. "One day you wont be there, Brady" he muttered "and when that is the case, I will be there." Deep down, phillip knew the only way Brady wouldn't be there for or with Chloe was if he was stopped somehow. The question was how, and more importantly when?
