Chapter 6

"Do you two know what time it is?" Thomas asked.

"Eleven o'clock." Lily answered

"And tomorrow is your first day back to school. You know our house rules Lily"

"Yes mom. We would have left a note except we weren't expecting you home tonight."

"No excuses. Get upstairs. Chloe, Lily will inform you of our rules." Thomas said. Chloe and Lily nodded and walked up to Lily's room. Lily shared the many rues of the house and then they each went to bed. The next morning Chloe woke up extra early and couldn't get back to sleep, so she went to shower. She put her hair in two braids, got dresses in capri's and a teeshirt. She went back to her room and realized it was still early. She returned to the bathroom and put on her makeup. She went back into her room when she was done to put everything she needed in her bag. At around six Lily woke up and showered. Once she was ready she walked into Chloe's room and found Chloe looking mervous.

"Wow Chloe, how early did u wakeup?"

"Around four, I couldn't sleep."

"I didn't realize you were that nervous. Don't worry so much, you already have 5 friends so that isn't a problem." Lily said, "And don't worry you are in almost all my classes."

"I guess you're right." Chloe said.

"Let's go eat some breakfast, we should get going soon." Lily said

"Alright so, anyway can students drive in to school? Because if they can I can drive us to give us a little more time." Chloe asked.

"Yea sounds good." Lily said as they went downstairs. At school Lily and Chloe met up with Robbie, Ray, Travis, and Audrey. All of a sudden there was an announcement.

"Yo and hello I'm Kim Carlisle, welcome back students."

"WHAT?! I thought she graduated last year." Robbie said.

"And as you're probably wondering, why is Kim back? Well Mr. Waller hired me as a full time Cougar Radio DJ." Kim's voise said.

"No Way." Lily said.

"Is this a bad thing?" Chloe said, "She doesn't sounds bad"

"She put us through hell last year, plus she disses the RFR dj's." Ray explained.

"Oh." Chloe said but decided Kim sounded nice and wanted to meet her. Before lunch, after Chloe went to her locker, she headed to the Cougar Radio booth. "Hey, I'm Chloe, I'm new here."

"I'm Kim. Is there something I can help you with??" Kim said.

"Not really. I just wanted to introduce myself. I heard your broadcast this morning and thought you sounded nice." Just as Chloe was speaking, Robbie came around the corner.

"Chloe, why aren't you at lunch? And why are you talking to HER?" Robbie said.

"Hey Robbie" Chloe said.

"Oh, and now you have a problem with me McGrath? You seemed to like me last year. You did sell all those calendars for me." Kim interrupted.

"Well, I'm interested in someone else now." Robbie retorted.

"I'll let you two settle this. Robbie I'll see you at lunch." Chloe said putting a hand on his shoulder and then walked away from the booth.

"Kim I'd love to chat but I'm to catch up with Chloe." Robbie said and turned away. "Chloe! Wait up!" he called.

"So, that's who he's interested in?!" Kim said to herself with a smirk on her face.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Chloe Wait up!" Robbie called, Chloe stopped and turned around to look at him. "Sorry bout her."

"Not a problem, what was with her anyway?" Chloe asked, Robbie looked down at his feet.

'Wow my shoelaces are so cool!!!' he thought.

"Robbie, Look at me, what's with her? You can tell me."

"Well I kissed her last year because I liked her." Robbie said really quietly.

"Oh no big deal. You told me you liked me yesterday so I don't have anything to worry about do I?" Chloe said with the sweetest smile possible.

"No of course you don't" Robbie said, by now they were in the cafeteria. They went to sit with Lily, Ray and Travis.

"Yo and hello cougars. I've got some gossip for you. Our own Robbie McGrath has a new crush. He seems to like yhe new girl, but will she return the feelings? I wonder." Kim's voice came over the speakers. Chloe pulled out her cell phone.

"Hey Kim, It's Chloe, just to answer your question, I do return his feelings and he already knows that do BACK OFF." Chloe said and hung up. The whole cafeteria was staring at her since her call was on the air. She blushed under everyone's gazes.

"Thanks Chloe but that wasn't necessary." Robbie said quietly.

"Well it's true, and now everyone knows." Chloe said smiling. Robbie just gazed at her causing her to blush slightly. After school the group was at Mickey's when Robbie pulled Chloe aside.

"Look, Chlo, I was going to wait until I was sure you definitely liked me but after lunch today I knew."

"Knew what?" Chloe said

"Chloe Randall, Will you be my girlfriend?" Robbie asked pulling out a jewelry box, he opened in to show a gorgeous silver charm bracelet with a heart charm with her name engraved in it in cursive.

"Yes. Oh My God it's beautiful." Chloe said soflty. Robbie put the bracelet on her. "Thank you." She said and hugged him. At 5:00 Chloe was in her room waiting for RFR to start staring at her new bracelet.

"Welcome to RFR. I'm Question Mark and I'm wondering is someone trying to embarrass you jealousy?" QuestionMark asked. "What do you think listeners?"

"RFR, you're on the air." Pronto said.

"How do they try to embarrass you?"

"They try to tell everyone about you liking someone."

"Then definitely." He caller said and hung up.
