The next morning.
I wait for Chloe by the car, She is late by 30 minutes. We going to go to the studio. Chloe still treats me with a cold distance, not the way she warms up to Stacie. I hurt a little bit I guess but I can't complain she, my boss, after all, and if Chloe is safe is fine by me.
I'm sitting at the sideline of the studio with Stacie and that blond bitch (kill me) Chloe is amazing with her talent it no doubts but this the first time I see it on my own eyes.
The things that irritated me is her co-star that guy is too close to Chloe. He always touches Chloe when it not necessary at all.
I lean into Posen and asked about that actor
"Are you living in the rock", hobbit? That Tom Handerson he is Chloe boyfriend"
Why I don't get that informed.
It important to me to know all the people that relate to Chloe.
Stacie who see my expression whisper to me that
"Chloe and Tom are on and off to the relationship. I don't think that they really love each other it seems only business. It happens a lot with celebrities" I nodded. I
understand but I don't like it. I don't like the idea of Chloe getting used like this.
Anyway, if he touched Chloe without her permission, I won't care if he a celebrity or not.
We continued to watch Chloe acting, I can't say that this is boring because the view is good.
Then it the scene that Chloe need to run down the stair while the bad guys chase after her.
Suddenly the workers behind the backdrop slip or something and it smashed the background. It distracted Chloe and make her stumble and fall down while the backdrop is trembling down. I run to Chloe immediately and cover her with my body.
All those backdrop land on my back with a loud thud. I grit my teeth. It not that bad, thank god it not real rock or semen but I'm sure it will leave some bruise.
"Are you okay?" I asked Chloe.
"My leg hurt," Chloe said while Stacie rushed on to her side. She examines her legs for a minute.
"It's not broke, it's just sprain. Here let me put the bandage and spray." When Stacie finished. The studio is wrapping for the day due to Chloe injured. Chloe tries to walk several steps and she hisses at every step. I sighed and walked beside her and help her walk. Then Chloe stumbles again might I add so I scoop her up in a bridal style.
"Hey, put me down, I can walk on myself" She hit my shoulder.
"I doubt that just let me help you so you can heal better" She still tries to get out of my hold.
"Miss Beale If you didn't quit this action I will drop you," I warned her then she still and murmured something I can catch as a jerk. I already regret that I insist to carry her to the car. My back is killing me. It not that about her weight(no it, not Chloe weight like nothing) but because of the backdrop that land on me earlier. I put Chloe in the car with a small hiss. Then I walk to get in a front seat and lay back to relaxed my muscle.
"Thank you" I heard a small voice that comes from Chloe.
"For carry me and you know jump in front to protect me. She said.
"It's nothing, Miss Beale. It's my job"
I said and try to ignore the butterfly in my stomach. To hear that kind voice is practically direct to me after a long time. My daydream is stopping when that blond bitch opens her mouth.
"Hobbit is not that bad like she looks" That blond bitch ugh she gets on my nerve but I just glared at her.
"Bree, stop it. She just saves me at least be polite. " Aubrey scoffed. And I literally on cloud 9.
"Eff when we get home we should check on you, Those backdrop is not small." I glared at Stacie
"No need Stace, I'm fine." The tall brunette shakes her head.
"That is to me to say, I'm the doctor" I'm so tired to argue with her so I just shut up for the rest of the ride.
When we arrived I quickly rush out of the car.
I open the door for Chloe and lift her up again gently.
I can feel she look at me.
" I know I'm gorgeous and flawless but quit staring at me, you're distracting me. "
I smirked at her. She blushed, wow I make her blushed.
I carry her to the couch on the living room. I gently laid her down.
" Chloe, Eff I will go to grabs some medicine for Chloe. Do you want anything?"
" Can you order taco bell for me? '' I and my obsess with taco bell.
Stacie chuckle " As the doctor, I should be concern about how much you consume those tacos. You'll get a heart attack before you know it" I shrug as Stacie walk out of the room.
I go to the kitchen, find some of ice and towel for Chloe.
I kneel down, grabs her leg and press the towel to her sprain ankle.
I can feel she staring at me
" Staring people is rude, you know?" I look at her with a smirk and she blushes. Ha I can make her blush
I wish that Tom the jerk will see that. Wait, what?
"It's that you don't have to do this, it not your job"
Well, it kinda it is. "I know but I want to" She studied me for a minute but she says nothing.
Then her phone was rung. She sigh " What Tom?" " Yeah, don't you see it" "Whatever"
" But I didn't have to" "I always shut my mouth but this time maybe I don't"
"I think we should break up" "Yeah I'm sure" "It too late Tom, Bye"
I hesitating looked at Chloe, She is crying. That bastard how dare you to make Chloe cry.
I scoot up and sit beside her " Hey, are you okay?"
She sniffed "Why do you care?"
I sigh "Of course, I care" I murmur she glares at me.
"I mean you are my boss, of course, I care. " smooth Mitchelle
She rolled her eyes.
"Well, maybe I can be some ears. Someone told me that talking helps you lessen your stress.
Besides you don't have to worry that I tell your secret because I don't talk to anyone but Stacie." I raised my eyebrows.
She sighed "Okay, Tom and I we dated for 2 years. If you ever read the new you will see that me and him always on and off on this relationship. The truth is we did this for promoting the movie. I never have any feeling for him but for somehow I never get involved with anyone else. He takes me to the date we do a couple thing and one day he just decides that we should have sex. That a huge no for me and that is the start of him cheating on me. I know that we not really date but it still hurt you know?" She sniffed.
My blood is boiled, how dare him to make Chloe the most wonderful thing Chloe feel so low, so self-esteem. I swear if he anywhere near Chloe I will kick his ball hard that it cant reproduce his offspring.
"I just can't handle it anymore, he blames me that if I do it with him he won't need to go to other else."
I huffed " Tell me that you don't believe what that bastard said Because of it completely wrong, in a million ways wrong. That is just an excuse that he used for cheating on you.
You, Chloe Beale, is so much worth more than that" I hear Chloe laugh with sarcastic, wow that new sarcastic is me more than Chloe.
"It's true, You this big star of Hollywood, you're super rich, successful and so beautiful. Damn it your father is vice president. You can have anyone, screwed that douchbag. besides you're really a good person, you kind, you care a lot and you smart. It his lost for not saw those things."
Chloe jawed drop look at me with awe. I shyly stand up and scratch my neck. Oh, man, did I said too much?.
Then Stacie is coming back. I left Stacie to take care of Chloe while I took a detour to the kitchen to calm my mine.
I know that my feeling that I always keep it deep inside is trying to emerge. Agh why my life is always to be complicated. I know the way I love Chloe is more than a friend but I know that I can't have that feeling. Chloe never loves me like that and I always okay with it but I'll be damn if someone treats her like shit. I will do anything to protect her. No matter what I am for Chloe.
Flashback (high school)
I always hate school but I never feel like this. Chloe always is the reason that school, not suck. But since Chloe is so popular and always be with her oh so cool friends.
She bails out our sleepover 3 weeks in a role and that okay even if I know that she goes with those quarterback party. It hurt because I love her, oh gosh I'm in love with my best friend. After I see this Jimmy guy kiss Chloe on her 9 grade. I know that my feeling for Chloe is more than just a friend. That makes me confuse all summer. I tried to have a boyfriend but it never works, it never will. No one gives me those heartwarming than Chloe, no one.
" Hey, Becs" Chloe lean against the locker beside me.
"Hi," I said coldly. Yes, I understand but it didn't mean that I'm not upset.
"Becs, I'm sorry that I bailed our best friend night. I know that lately, I am a horrible friend to you...I"
"No, it's okay. Chloe. I know that you have other friends too.
Don't worry about me. You don't have to explain yourself or anything." I force my smile and close my locker. I began to walk out but she grabs me and drags me to the empty gym
"Becs, please. I know you are upset with me. I know you .."
I grit my teeth, I try not to broke down but my tear disobeys me. I broke down into a full sob. I really need someone right now. My family situation now is so shitty. My parents divorced and my dad found out on my computer about my lesbian community. He doesn't say anything and I mean anything at all. I really need my best friend but Chloe never been here.
She hugs me until I calm down.
"Becs, what wrong ?"She rubbed my back soothing me. I pulled off from her hug. I look at her and see the concern in her eyes but I just can't talk to her. I don't know what she will think about me. I see her teammate make fun with this gay guy but Chloe never participate but still.."
"Nothing, just forget it"
"Becs…"
"Hey Chloe, you here. I looking for you forage" That Jimmy guy burst into the gym.
"Tiffany and everybody waiting for you. We will go get lunch at the mall."
Chloe hesitated "But"
"Just go, Chloe. I need to do my work anyway." I grab my bag shed my tear and walk out.
I never feel this lonely before but this is life shit is happening nothing new.
2 days later near the homecoming day, I set my DJ equipment in the gym suddenly the door burst open with Chloe and that Jimmy guy heavily makes out. Damn it is someone up there hate me that much.
"No. Jimmy stop, I'm not ready" I heard Chloe said and that get my attention.
"Come on babe we are dating like a month."
"No, Jimmy I…" That when I grab Jimmy and punch him really hard and knock him down.
"Don't you understand the word NO, This is just a warning Jimmy don't ever touch her again." I glared at him and grabs Chloe with me. I take her to her house and let she cry on my shoulder.
"Why you help me since I am that horrible friend to you. I'm sure that you angry with me."
I chuckle " I never be angry with you Chloe. You always be my best friend Chlo. Even if I'm not yours and I take my promise seriously I will come and help you anytime you need me." I smiled at her.
"I'm so lucky to have a friend like you. And You always be my best friend Becs. I'm sorry that I'm neglecting you…"
"No don't apology like I said I understand. Just forget about this and watched that lame movie you like so much."
Chloe laughed "Princess diaries is not lame"
I rolled my eyes "Whatever"
