Chloe's POV

Disclaimer: I o not own The Nine Lives of Chloe King nor do I make any profit from this.

It didn't hurt in the way I thought it would. After Brian died obviously I felt guilty that in the heat of the moment I had let it get that far but my heart didn't have that shattered feeling that you would expect after someone you thought you loved died. Maybe it was because I didn't really love him? My heart felt wounded not broken, it had the feeling like when a good friend dies. In that moment I realized that it wasn't Brian who I loved but someone else.

Someone who had saved my life countless times.

Someone who had endured sleepless nights for my safety.

Someone who had been there to help her mourn the death of her friend. Someone who was Alek.

She knew she had to find him and him how she felt before it was too late.

She finally found him in the park by himself. She ran to him and kissed him because in that moment she knew that he reciprocated her feelings, it was in the passion of the kiss.
