After school everyone was hanging out at the Stoppable's house, and everyone includes Chloe. Currently all the teenagers were in the living room watching the recording of last night's episode of American Starmaker, which most of them missed due to a mission. Tony and Heather were snickering about every five seconds since they had strategically made sure that there was no place for Cam to sit aside from next to Chloe, which irritated Cam to no end. Suddenly, as if reading his mind, Chloe stood up.
"I'm going to get a soda," she said and with that she exited the room.
Once she was gone Heather and Tony busted out laughing at the obvious relief on their friends face.
"What is so funny?" Cam demanded, though his friends were to busy laughing to answer him immediately.
"You." Heather finally managed through her laughter "you and her. It's obvious she likes you and don't forget I'm in gym with you two, you flirt with her nonstop" Heather continued, laughing even harder when Cam's face turned a deep shade of red.
"Seriously dude, we're just trying to help you" Tony insisted as his own laughter began to finally subside.
When Chloe walked into the kitchen she found Zach sitting at the table, concentrating hard on his homework.
"Hey" she greeted casually
"Hey" he said back.
Without a word Chloe took a can of soda from the fridge and opened it, about to head back into the living room when she stopped to glance at Zach's work.
"Ugh, Geometry" she remarked but Zach only shrugged.
"It's not so bad, I'm pretty good at it," he told her
"I don't doubt it, you must be a pretty smart kid to hold your own on a team with people so much older than you" she commented, at the sound of her comment Zach briefly stopped writing before starting again.
"Thanks" he muttered and behind him Chloe smiled to herself.
"You're welcome," she said before going back to the living room, for now her work with Zach was done.
"Heather, up high!" Mark shouted the next night when they were in Wade's simulator.
"You better give me a boost." Heather grumbled under her breath as she ran towards mark, of course she knew Mark would be where she needed him to be.
Sure enough Mark bent over as she approached from behind and she jumped onto his back, he half stood as she jumped again which resulted in her being launched high enough to land on the wrist of giant robot Wade was simulating.
"Seriously what villain is actually going to try this?" Zach complained from the ground.
"My dad did" Heather shouted down as she ignited her hands and began taking out the wiring on the wrist of the robot.
"And it almost worked for him" Cam added from where he was trying to balance on the foot and take out some wiring there.
"Enough with the history lesson guys" Tony cut in, aiming a grappling hook around the robot's knees and pulling tight.
The robot landed on the ground with a crash before vanishing as the simulation ended.
"A little warning next time Tony" Heather said as she dizzily made her way over to the boys, she barely had time to react to the sudden collapsing of the robot and grab onto the thumb.
"Sorry" Tony chuckled but Heather just told him it was alright and the group headed out of the room.
"But the only reason the robot thing almost worked for your dad was because he distracted mom and dad with a guy on the inside" Zach said, bringing them back to the conversation of just a few minutes earlier.
Giggling Heather ruffled her little brother's hair
"I don't know if that was the only reason but it really was a big part" she half agreed, ok she completely agreed with her brother but she felt like she should at least pretend to give her father more credit than his closest thing ever to a successful 'take over the world scheme' having only gone the way it did because of a semi self aware synthodrone.
"Yeah, good thing your dad's out of the synthodrone business" Cam joked; completely unaware that it wasn't Drakken they should be worried about.
Meanwhile Chloe and Emily were back at the Stoppable's house studying for a history test the following day when Heather broke the silence.
"Hey you're good at science right?" She asked and Emily looked up
"Yeah, why?" she questioned, Chloe grinned a slightly evil grin before answering.
Ok so I know that this chapter is not only late but extremely short, sorry about that and thank you for having patients with me. I promise that the next chapter will be up much sooner and much longer!
