Okay wow, sorry it took so long to update. I've been so busy. Anyway, you
all know that I only know Chloe. The rest of the characters belong to the
genius mind of Randall Wallace. Read and review guys. Tell me what you
think!
P.S. Nicci, I think Josh's chick DEFINITELY needs to smile and incorporate some color! Black just doesn't work for her.

Stunned, Chloe felt her heart drop to her stomach. She felt numb through her whole body, she couldn't feel a thing in her body except the mental pain that was so horrible, it felt physical. She watched as Danny and Evelyn slowly made their way down the sidewalk and walked into the diner. Slowly, Chloe turned to the sound of laughter.
"Chloe, is that you?" she heard Betty's voice ask, choking back laughter. "Chloe what's wrong?" she asked, suddenly concerned when she noticed Chloe was just staring off into space in a daze. "Chloe?"
"Yeah, I'm fine," she said distantly, and started walking back towards the nurse's house. She heard Betty and the others calling after her, but didn't respond, she just kept walking. Chloe finally made it to her destination, and threw herself down onto the bed, her shoulders shaking with sobs.

"So one time when we were little, Rafe forced me to make him these wings that were just made out of paper and glue. And then he JUMPED off the ROOF! And SNAP, there went his leg, broke in two different places! But then the next day, even when he was in the cast, he told me to make adjustments, and he'd get back up there," Danny told another story of life with Rafe, as Evelyn burst out laughing at their childish antics.
Suddenly something caught her eye as she looked up at the window. Danny realized with a shock what it was. Red, Anthony, Barbara, and Betty were standing there, watching them with shocked looks on their faces. Danny just waved with a small smile on his face.
Suddenly, Betty broke into a smile, and held up her left hand for Evelyn to see. A diamond glittered, catching the light, and Evelyn smiled and mouthed her congratulations. She sighed in relief as the foursome turned to leave, going wherever the night took them.
"I wonder what they're thinking," she mused, looking at Danny.
"I don't know," he replied. "I don't know."
*****
Outside the four friends were still in shock.
"What are they doing?" demanded Barbara to no one in particular. She was steaming mad, how could they do this to Chloe?
"I don't know," Betty replied, her eyes still wide. "But I just hope THEY know, cause they're going to have a heck of a time explaining this to Chloe when she finds out."
"Wait," interrupted Anthony, "Do you think she already knows?" Seeing the confused faces of his three friends, he continued, "I mean, remember outside the movie theatre? She seemed a little out of it."
"That's an understatement," muttered Barbara under her breath.
"Wait, yes," whispered Betty, realization shining in her eyes. "I bet she saw them. Oh no, poor Chloe. She must be heartbroken."
And with that, the four set off into the sunset towards the nurses houses, to see if they could repair the damage that had already set in.
