Chapter 5

Author: Kristy Browning

After school that day, Chloe decided to take a walk, she decided to walk along the pier hoping he would be there. God, I really love him she thought, but why can't I tell him.

Meanwhile, Brady was sitting in his office at Basic Black and couldn't concentrate on anything. "Ok, Black, you have work to do" he said to himself. Ten minutes later he still hadn't even gotten a good start on this new project. "Man, dad is gonna kill me if I don't get this done." He decided that he was obviously not going to get any work done right now, he just couldn't stop thinking about her.

Brady stepped off the elevator on the ground floor not knowing exactly where he was headed, he just started walking.

Chloe stayed at the pier for about an hour, then she decided that he was not going to be there that day. "Oh, Brady, I know something was bothering you last night. I would feel so much better if I knew you were ok." she said aloud to no one in particular. She decided to walk through Salem Park on her way home.

Brady found himself at the gazebo in Salem Park. Why, you idiot, did you come here? Brady thought, You are trying to get her off your mind, and this place sure isn't going to accomplish that now is it? He looked up and saw her walking toward the gazebo. He was unsure of whether to hide or just wait for her so he decided on the latter.

Chloe thought she saw him sitting in the gazebo, but she kept telling herself she was imagining it. You know he doesnt think about you in that way, Chloe, she thought to herself. As she neared the gazebo she was even more sure that it was him sitting there.

"Hey, Diva" he said as she walked up to the gazebo "What brings you here?"

"Nothing really, Brady, I just decided to walk through the park on my way home and saw you here"
