I don't own the Nine Lives of Chloe King in any way. And any songs are by the artist who sing them. This chapter's song in by Colbie Calait. Sorry for not updating sooner. I have been extremely busy lately however I hope to have a new chapter and maybe even a new story up soon.
Chloe POV continued:
Jas and I attacked Alek with no mercy until we were all out of breath from a combination of laughter and all the chasing around he put me and Jas through. But after that we decided Jas should go to school and Alek and I would stay at the apartment because he still wasn't over Mimi even if Jas and I had cheered him up temporarily. As Jas left to get ready me and Alek went to make some food, we ended up making blueberry muffins although we had to use two boxes of mix because we ended up having a food fight with the muffin batter.
Of course as soon as Jas walks in is when the muffins are halfway done cooking and the batter fight has just ended meaning the evidence was still there. She just gives me and Alek this halfway disapproving look asking when or if we will ever grow up, typical Jas always the serious one of our group. Once were done eating Jas heads off to school while I clean up the dishes and food and Alek tackles the mess we made with the batter.
Once the mess is cleaned up we decide to have a day out. We drove separately because I had work and then a dinner out with my mom after "school" today. While driving there I heard Colbie Calait's I Think I May be Falling for You and once again I realized that I have feelings for Alek only this time I realized that those feelings may actually be feelings of love. I mean we have been through so much together that I know I can trust him with absolutely anything especially my lives. Whenever I am around him I can't stay mad or upset for long, he ALWAYS cheers me up. I also feel protected and safe around him even if we are in the midst of fighting the Order I know that he would NEVER let anything happen to me; he's more than a brother to me, he's more than my best friend, I think Alek is my soul mate. We went to the arcade down the street and played air hockey for hours, it was my favorite game however, no one except Alek knew this because the kids at school would tease me about it if they found out. I beat him game after game until I got distracted when Alek took off his shirt revealing his tight v-neck under shirt, he said he took off his shirt because he was "hot" from playing air hockey for so long; he won that game. And he wouldn't let me forget it. He teased me about for the rest of the day while we were playing skit ball and even while we were playing that basketball shooting thing they always have at carnivals and fairs, both of which he dominated at. Though on the last game of the basketball shooting game I decided to take off my over shirt, leaving me in only my tank top, as I was shooting it created a small gap between my jeans and the bottom of my tank top, this effectively distracted him so he missed the last couple of his shots making to where I won; me winning at a basketball game was something that was amazing as basketball was something that Alek was a natural at. Obviously I teased him about this nonstop, while we ate some food. Then it was time for me to leave for work and for Alek to head to practice.
Alek's POV:
Once the mess from breakfast and mine and Chloe's food fight was cleaned up we decided to spend the day; I needed this so I wouldn't think about Mimi and the fact that recently I have felt more for Chloe than just her being my best friend. We drove separately ONLY because Chloe had work and a dinner with her mom after "school". We decided to head to the arcade down the street because we both needed to just goof off and no one from school would see us there.
While driving there I heard Colbie Calait's I Think I May be Falling for You. While listening to this all I could do was think about Chloe. As much as I didn't want to think about being in another relationship right now because of everything with Mimi all I could think of was being with Chloe and how everytime she dated someone else I hated it even though I had always been with Mimi. All those thoughts just led me to think that I may actually be falling in love with my best friend, one beautiful curly haired blonde name Chloe King. I mean it's not like she would feel the same way, she once started to fall for a human even though she could never be with him and the last guy she dated, Kaleb, was from the New York, like Mimi, actually he was Mimi's cousin, was sort of a jerk to her and slightly abusive so Chloe had shied away from relationships since then and that was a year and half ago. Could I really be falling in love in love with the girl who didn't want to be in relationship because of a bad experience with one a year and half ago. I mean if we did date could I even change her mind about what a relationship should be like? Basset help me my best friend is driving me crazy but I think I like it; am I losing my mind? I think I actually love my best friend and can even spending the rest of my life with her. Chloe King becoming Chloe Petrov well let's just say I liked how Chloe Petrov sounded and I began to pray to Basset that she did too. I don't know if I could handle it if she broke my heart too, only if my heart broke from Chloe I don't think I could EVER recover from that.
As the song ended so did the drive to the arcade. Chloe and I played air hockey for hours and she beat me game after game until I had an idea; I took off my shirt revealing my tight v-neck undershirt, see even though Chloe is my best friend she has always ogled at my body like every other girl, I of course said I did that because I was hot from playing air hockey however it was an effective distraction to her and I won that game. I teased her mercilessly about the rest of the day even when we moved on to play skit ball and the basketball shooting game, both of which I dominated at; at least until Chloe distracted me during the last game of our basketball shooting game. She said she was getting hot and then took off her over shirt revealing a slightly tight tank top that road up a little bit in the back when she shot. Man was that HOT! Because of that distraction from Chloe I missed the last couple of my shots meaning that she won. Chloe King beat me at basketball, BASKETBALL, that was my sport! Chloe teased me about this endlessly while we ate some food, typical arcade food like nachos and sodas.
After we ate Chloe had to leave for work and then she had a dinner with her mom while I had practice; Jasmine would be Uniter duty. As we were walking out of the arcade I put my arm around Chloe's waist and as I did that she skooshed over and walked a little closer to me. Once we got to the cars Chloe and I turned to each other at the same time.
Third person POV:
"Alek I..." "Chloe I..." Chloe and Alek said at the same time.
Alek POV:
We both laughed nervously then I said "You first" to Chloe. She began by telling me that she's glad we are best friends but that for the past six months or so her feelings seem to be becoming more than those of a best friend. I simply give her a quizzical look until she says "Alek I think I am falling for you. I think I am in love with you BUT I DO know that I like you as more than a friend." At this point all I can do is smile and in response I kiss her; our kiss was filled with passion, want, and love, simply put it was the best kiss I had ever had. After a few minutes of kissing we had to separate in order to breathe so I took the opportunity to tell her "Chloe I feel the exact same way only I couldn't see until last night when I Mimi called me out for it. I never meant for you to feel as if Mimi was any better than you because I was dating her and not you because I would much rather have been dating you the whole time Mimi and I were dating than to have your heart and mine through all the crap and nonsense Mimi brought, I am especially sorry I ever let her introduce you to Kaleb and that I wasn't there like I probably should have been while Mimi and I were together. Also I never loved Mimi I was just attracted to her physically as in I thought she looked good and being a guy I confused that for loving her".
Chloe POV:
I can't believe it! As Alek and I were leaving the arcade he put his arm around my waist so I skooshed closer to him and continued walking like that. We got to the cars and turned to each other simultaneously and started saying the same thing at the exact same time. We laughed awkwardly together for a minute before he told me I could go first so I poured my heart and feelings out to him in a few sentences I told him how I feel. I got done and felt really embarrassed for having said that without even knowing for sure that he was over Mimi or if her felt the same as me. Could I be stuck loving my best friend for the rest of my life without him loving me back? See mai fall in love for life and it had seemed to me that Alek loved Mimi; I guess I was wrong though because with those thoughts came Alek's AMAZING smile and then he kissed me! Alek Petrov, my best friend, kissed me. Our kiss was full of love, want, and passion quite simply it was the best kiss I had ever had. We kissed for a few minutes but then had to separate for air and he took that chance to tell me he basically felt the same way about me and that he never loved Mimi.
I would like to thank Sira-the-Awesome for their idea of Chloe and Alek both hearing I Think I may be Falling for You and realizing their feelings for one another. I was originally inspired by the song for this chapter however I didn't want this to simply turn into a different song for every chapter creating an entire song fic. Sira-the-Awesome inspired me to take my idea to the next level.
