To Love or To Kill
Chapter 3 The Gang
Chloe knew it was the first day of school but weren't people usually busy doing their own thing to notice a new student off the bat. She realized she was the center of attention and directed her vision from the thousand eyes to one pair of blue ones, "Belle why are all these people looking at me? Are you like the most popular girl in school or something? Or is it something with me?" Chloe said as she felt confused.
Belle laughed at her comments, noticing that Philip and Shawn were quickly approaching. "I am, but their probably staring at you because you are new and Chloe you have to realize we're in high school. Boys like attractive girls and that you are" she smiled
Chloe was flattered by Belle's response but still felt out of place with all the mixed stares from what was now her classmates. Chloe turned around to see two boys approaching quickly to them both. She whispered into Belle's left ear and questioned, "Why are they walking over here?"
"Their friends Chloe don't worry. They don't bite but I wouldn't be all that sure about Philip. But if he does don' fret I think the vet has gave him his shots," Belle smirked and noticed that Chloe hadn't laughed not one bit. Nor had she smiled since they got into the school. It wasn't the time to ask now as her beau, Shawn Brady caught her attention.
"Hello there Ms. Black, how are you this first day of school?" Shawn smiled. "Sporting a new do as well." Then Shawn turned to look at the girl standing to the left of Belle and asked, "Hi, your new here, right?"
Belle stepped in, "Hey Shawn and yes this is Chloe. Remember the signup sheet last year to serve as an escort for new students? Well she's one of those new students."
Finally starting to click, Shawn responded, "Oh. How do you like it so far here, Chloe?" he asked looking to Chloe.
Not wanting to come off as how she really felt she said, "It's okay"
Accepting the answer Shawn turned to Philip to question, "Hey Phil, didn't you sign that sheet too? I mean if I can recall, we all went down there together. You had to do it because you got in trouble for something." Shawn stopped trying hard to remember what it was that Philip had done so bad last year that was so funny.
Philip eyes went wide as he didn't want the new girl knowing one of his most embarrassing moments already. She had just gotten here and he didn't want to ruin any chance of being with her with some stupid stunt done last year. "I was just signing up for community service hours," he lied. But when he saw that Shawn accepted it and so did Belle, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Philip was absolutely astounded by the new chick and was going to make his move when Belle decided to make an announcement, " Hey guys why don't we get together after school today and show Chloe around. Local hangouts and whatnot, like dotCom."
Chloe still a bit nerved by all the attention replied before the group could nod in acceptance to say, "Belle I have plans, but they're not immediately after school but I do have plans."
Belle felt a little bit left out not knowing her plans, but she had just met Chloe today. What did she expect to do. When Belle thinking was hushed by Chloe's continuance.
"Belle, do you mind taking me somewhere around town where I can find an outfit to where at this interview I have later on today. I mean I really don't know a lot of people besides my parents and you all. So if I wouldn't be too much of a bother to shop with…"
Chloe was interrupted with Belle's excited words, "Of course! I love to go shopping! Just tell me when and where, and I'll be there!"
"Great," Chloe said. She was beginning to see the better side of her new living arrangements, the one positive so far being Belle. "One more favor if you don't mind," Chloe said looking to Belle with pleading eyes of hopes for saying yes.
Belle was up for anything as she gave a simple nod for her to continue.
"Come to my interview with me?" Chloe asked.
"Yes, I mean of course I'll come Chloe" Belle said. Turning her attention to Shawn and Philip she said, "Well we better get going. Chloe and I got first hour together so we'll catch up with you guys later."
Philip was disappointed but didn't have enough time to sulk up in it before feeling dragged off by Shawn.
Shawn turned to Philip and noticed him still staring at Chloe. Rolling his eyes he said, "Get over it man. You couldn't have her if you wanted her."
Philip snapped quickly to Shawn's words and said, "What is that suppose to mean?"
Shawn stopped to give him the full mouth view as he quipped, "As in it means she OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE!"
"I wouldn't bet on it," he said back.
"I would. I'd bet my life on it," Shawn turned.
Still quite reluctant to let Shawn win this match he said, "We shall see Brady. We shall see."

"So Chloe friends?" Belle asked holding out her hands to shake on it.
Chloe smiled as she placed her hands into hers and said, "Friends."
Walking briskly for awhile, Belle realized she didn't even know where Chloe was having her interview at. "So what and who are you getting interviewed for?"
Still walking Chloe replied, "Um, ever heard of Basic Black and a woman named Kate Roberts? Well, hopefully I will be the new model for their teen campaign if she and the president agree on it."
