we do not own the nine lives of chloe king
ALEK's (POV)
Chloe got mad, but I don't know why. She ran out saying she was tired ,but I can tell it was something else. Jasmine and I ran after her, but she went to her room and closed the door.
"Lets just leave her alone" Jasmine said.
"But something is wrong" I said.
"Yeah, Alek there is but until she talked to us we won't know. And I know her a long time, she doesn't like to be pushed" she told me.
"I guess you're right" I said.
"I'm going to see Christina and Jennifer and make sure they know their room" she said and left.
Jennifer, that's it! What, Jennifer did bother her. She was fine up until Jennifer came up to me and hugged me. Was Chloe jealous? I wouldn't mind, but not like this. Something little. Make her a little mad ,but not for her to run out and hide from me. I'm going to kill Chris. I could hear Chloe crying ,but she wouldn't let me in. I sat next to her door hoping that she would open, but she never did. I went to my room, leaving the door open in case she came out. I woke up the next morning to Chloe's voice, she was in the kitchen with Chris and Jennifer. This was going to be hard.
"Morning" I said. I made sure that before leaving my room I put a shirt on.
"Morning" Chloe said.
"Hey cousin" Chris said.
"Hi" Jennifer said in a seductive voice, giving me a kiss on the cheek. I looked up at Chloe, but she had turned away. I followed her into the kitchen. I need to make sure she was ok.
"You ok?' I asked.
"Yeah. Why?" she asked.
"Last night you ran out and didn't give anyone the chance to talk to you. What happened?" I asked.
"Nothing happened Alek, nothing at all" she said in a cold voice.
"Chloe ,why are you like this?" I asked her.
"Like what Alek, I'm being me" she said and walked out of the kitchen.
"I'm going to get Jasmine, we need to get a few things for next weeks party. So I'll see you guys later" she said and left.
"So ,where are we going on our date?" Jennifer asked. I looked at her, then at Chris. I was so furious , I didn't even know what to say.
CHLOE's (POV)
I walked out of my house, but before I got far I heard Jennifer ask him where they were going on their date. So she's the one he's going out with. I hate myself. I told myself to fight for him and here I am being stupid and letting the other girl win. Thank Basset she leaves tomorrow.
"Jazz, you ready?" I asked walking into her apartment.
"Hey, you ok?" she asked.
"Yeah, just had a minor meltdown ,but I'm ok" I said smiling at her.
"You sure?" she asked again.
"Let's talk later ok, we need to leave" I said walking right back out.
We shopped for a while, then had lunch. I know we should have brought Chris with us, but being around Jennifer now was bothering me. When we got back it was about 6:30, we had spend the whole day out. I walked into a well dressed Alek, guess he's going out on his date already.
"Nice" Jasmine said.
"Chloe" he said.
"What?" I asked.
"What do you think?" he asked, he was asking me really.
"Yeah, whatever not your best" I said turning around and setting the bags down.
"What's your problem?" he asked, I can tell he was getting mad.
"My problem, I have no problem" I said.
"Yes, you do ever since last night. You have been acting like a child" he said.
"Let me tell you something. You are my protector which means you are supposed to be with me all the time, but instead you're going out on a date" I said.
"What, I can't have a personal life?" he asked.
"Jessica would have never left me for some stupid date, she was always there for me. That's what a protector does, she gave her life for me. God, you'll never understand. That's why I can't trust you. You'll leave me the first chance you get, for a broom with a skirt" I said and walked to my room to change.
"What's her deal?" he asked.
"Alek, let me talk to her ok. Go out and I'll deal with it ok" Jasmine said. He kept telling her no, that he wanted to talk. But she told him to go. About a few minutes later Jennifer and Chris came in, when I walked out they had left .
"So, are you going to explain" Jasmine said.
"No" I told her going to the kitchen and getting food.
"Explain what? What happened?" Chris asked. I know she's his cousin, but I felt I can trust her.
"Your cousin is a jerk" I said walking back to the living room where they were.
"Why? What did he do now?" she asked, I started laughing.
"Chris, do you know that he and I were friends when we were little?" I asked her.
"Yeah, he talked about you all the time. He showed me a bunch of pictures of you two together" she said.
"Ok, perfect .Why does he do that? Then he almost kissed me last night, while we were dancing" I said getting mad.
"Oh my God, Chloe. I'm sorry that I messed that up" Jasmine said.
"Not your fault, even though I wanted to kill you" I said.
"Wait, you like him?" Chris asked.
"Chris, I have been in love with your cousin ever since I was little" I said out loud for the first time since I saw him.
"Ahh! You said it" Jasmine said pointing at me.
"Yes, I did .But it doesn't matter, his girlfriend is here and Basset only knows how long she is going to stay" I said.
"Girlfriend? Who's his. Oh never mind" Chris said. I looked at her ,but she didn't say anything after that.
"God, why did I have to fall for him" I said getting all watery.
"Chloe, I'm sorry" Jasmine said.
"Its ok, not your fault all mine" I said looking at both girls sitting in front of me.
"I'm going to bed guys, ok? Sorry this hasn't been the best weekend Chris, but you leave tomorrow afternoon?" I asked.
"Yeah, around 12 and don't worry Jennifer is leaving with me" she said, I laughed.
"Ok, so we will take you out on a nice breakfast before you leave" I said smiling at her. She smiled and nodded.
I went to my room and put a movie on so I could fall asleep. But I knew my body wasn't going to, until I heard Alek get home.
ALEK's (POV)
I took Jennifer out to eat, hopefully I could get out of this fast and get home to Chloe. She was all I could think about. She can't trust me? What was that supposed to mean? She knows she can trust me. But what she says is true too. I shouldn't be going out on dates ,since I am her head of protection. I could hear Jennifer talking about something, but I wasn't paying any attention to her.
"Alek?" Jennifer asked, taking me out of my thoughts.
"Yeah" I said.
"Are you listening to me? You look like you're on another planet" she said.
"Sorry, I have a lot on my mind" I told her.
"Ok, where are we going after this, the movies?" she asked.
"Jennifer I'm sorry, but I have to get home" I said.
"Why?" she asked a little annoyed.
"Chloe" I said.
"What about her?" she asked.
"What do you mean, what about her? I'm her protector, ok. I should be there watching her" I said.
"She has Jasmine and Chris, plus she's a big girl. And she can handle herself" she said.
"That maybe right ,but I'm the one that is supposed to watch her .Not Jasmine or Chris, so lets go" I said waving for the waiter to come and give us the bill. I paid and started to walk to the car. I could hear Jennifer's footsteps right behind me.
"Jennifer" I said .
"Yeah" she answered.
"Your too close, step away" I said not even turning around.
"Alek, why are you being so distant?" she asked.
"I'm being me" I said getting in the car.
"OK Alek, ever since you got here. You're not the same" she said sitting in the car.
"Yeah ,well maybe I changed, big deal" I said. The rest of the ride was quiet, thank Basset. When we got to the floor, I didn't even say good night. I just walked to my apartment and went inside.
"Hey Jasmine ,you can go" I said looking at her.
"Home so early?" she asked.
"Yeah" I said.
"Not so good?" she asked.
"No, it wasn't I'm going to bed. Where is Chris?" I asked looking around and not seeing her.
"She went to bed" she told me.
"Ok and Chloe?" I asked.
"In her room. I'm leaving ,good night" she said walking out.
"Night" I said before the door closed completely.
"Chloe, you up?" I asked walking to her room. I found her laying down, but not asleep.
"Hey" I said standing at her door.
"Hey, home already? It's only 9" she said still laying down.
"Yeah, well it was just dinner" I said.
"Ok, hope you had a nice time" she said.
"Nope, I'm going to bed ok. Just wanted to tell you I was home" I said and walked to my room.
"Night Petrov" she said. I smiled and turned to look at her.
"Sweet dreams King" I told her. I saw her smile.
There is the beautiful smile I know and love.
