I don't Own nine lives. Also just wondering but was anyone else really angry with the finale? Besides the part with Brian dying… and the carnival scene... that was just too cute.
Chloe's P.O.V.
I was in the guestroom lying on my bed thinking about Alek. No matter what my thoughts kept going back to our almost kiss yesterday. What am I thinking? I like Brian but… I can never be with him and I told him that. Then there was Alek who I COULD be with. I could kiss him… I almost did. Until his stupid friend called. But Alek doesn't like me like that. I was just playing it up in my head bigger than it actually was. That's why when he asked where we were I just brushed it off. I wish Amy was talking to me. I really want a girl I can talk to about all of this. My thought were interrupted when I heard guys talking coming into the house. I walked out into the living room to see what was going on. It was Alek and his Jocko buddies.
"I'm just saying man, you should go for King. She's hot and if you don't go after her, I will." I think his name is Jason was saying. Alek cleared his throat and they all turned around. They froze when they saw me. We stood there for a moment before David? spoke.
"King?" he asked.
"Yes?" I replied mocking his surprised voice.
"What are you doing here?"
"You here to see Alek?" Jason said in a teasing tone.
"Actually I'm here to see Jasmine." I replied before emphasizing my next words, "His cousin."
"Oh, I didn't know you guys were friends." Jason said disappointed.
"Well there's a lot you don't know." I said before turning to Alek, "When she gets here tell her I'm in her room."
"Sure," he replied looking at me and I hear him mutter under his breath, "Sorry for my idiotic friend."
I couldn't help but crack a small smile as I turned to walk away.
"Hey King, where are you going? Stay here and hang with us. I could show you a good time." Jason smirked snaking his arm around me. I was about to hit him hard when he suddenly pulled me closer to him and I collapsed feeling pain shoot from my side where his hand was. It was the spot where I was stabbed.
"Chloe." I heard Alek say before suddenly being right beside me. He helped me up then turned to Jason. He leaned in and whispered, "Stay away from Chloe or you WILL regret it."
"Chill man," Jason replied looking surprised. I looked at Alek just in time to see his eyes return from slits to normal.
Mike stood there watching the whole thing go down before awkwardly saying, "Right well um… let's watch some t.v."
There was a small chorus of yeahs from the other guys. "You guys watch." Alek said, "I'll be right back."
I walked towards Jasmine's room and could hear Alek following closely behind me. Once we got there he immediately shut the door and sat me down on the bed, "Are you okay?"
"Yeah fine, your idiot friend just happened to hit right where my injury is."
"I'm sorry about….. them."
"It's not your fault. You should go back to them."
He brushed a strand of hair behind my ear, "Are you sure your alright?"
I nodded and before I could help it I was leaning in. Then he was too. Once again we were interrupted my Mike who walked in. "Hey Alek are you coming or what?"
"What?" Alek asked then blinked a few times. "Oh… right. Yeah, I'll be there in a second."
Mike nodded then walked out. Alek stood up then leaned down and kissed my forehead. I smiled a little bit and he smiled back. Just a small smile though but it wasn't a smirk, it was a genuine smile. And that was good enough for me. After he left the room I lay backwards on the bed and began to wonder. Maybe Alek really did like me… two almost kisses have to count for something. Right?
