Sad day! D:
DPOV
This was a mistake. I was standing in the hallway that Tori had hidden me in so that Chloe wouldn't see me. I was so nervous, I think I could have fainted.
Damn Simon for talking me into doing this. I feel so stupid. Me and him had driven from Buffalo to New York. Simon was tired of me mopping around the house and not talking to anybody. He figured this would be better than anything.
In these long five years I hadn't gone completely crazy. I had kept one of Chloe's teddy bears and that was sort of a replacement for her. But not the same thing. I had been secretly calling her under a private number hanging up after I heard her voice. Do I sound desperate? Do I sound stalkerish? Well I'd say I was both.
When we arrived at Tori's house, I smelled a strange and familiar scent. I couldn't place it. We unlocked the door, using the key that Tori had given us, and we walked in on Tori chit chatting with our long-lost friend Rae. Great, now there's two surprises for Chloe in one day!
It was a mistake lying to Chloe, telling her I didn't want her. As if I could ever not want her! She was my mate. My one and only. The Ying to my Yang. I loved her with every fiber of my being, and then some.
Those peaceful days before Chloe left for her dad were the best days of my life. Me and Chloe would sneak off and just talk. I never did that before her.
After I had figured out that she was my mate I told her. I told her everything. From what it means to why it happened. At the end she raised her hand like she was in class.
Rolling my eyes, I asked, "Yes, miss Chloe?"
She sat up strait. " What would happen if a werewolf lost his mate? You said that she was the only one for him. What would happen if she didn't feel the same way?" Noticing my hurt expression she added, "not that I don't feel the same way! I just wanted to know, that's all."
'" The wolf will go into a deep depression…" I didn't want to continue. I don't like this question very much. "Are those the only questions you have for me?"
"yeah!" she said, a little too happy.
She just sat there, looking into my eyes. After a while, she stood up and straddled my lap. Then she leaned in and put her heat on my chest, like I was a pillow. I put my chin on top of her head and pulled my arms around her tiny frame. I have no idea how long we sat there, but it was wonderful!
It started to get dark, so I leaned forward. Chloe looked up at me and gave me a nervous smile. What does she have to be nervous about?
" Derek, about that mate thing…"
Oh, I see… she was nervous about rejecting me. Just perfect! " Chloe, it's okay. I figured this would happen. If this disgusts you, I'm sorry.'
"Why would you be sorry?" she asked, totally confused.
"I know you would never want to be mated with a monster like me. I'm selfish. I hurt people. I did that to that poor boy…" I trailed off, half hyperventilating. I had gotten so worked up in such a small amount of time.
The whole time I was talking, Chloe had been getting closer and closer to me. She placed her small lips on my neck, kissing my most sensitive spots, making me growl in pleasure. She ran her lips over my cheek, then my ear. Almost as if her lips were a cool breeze, I felt them close to my ear. Close, but not enough for me to really feel the softness of them.
So quietly that it was almost hard for me to hear, she whispered, " I love you too."
Giving her the smile I only gave to her, I kissed her as passionately as I could. Putting all my love into that one kiss.
When we got back into the living room, Chloe was told to call her dad. Her dad! When she hung up she to ld everyone that her dad wants her back home. Lauren- who still doesn't like me- said that she wanted Chloe to get back to a normal life, and that this was a good idea. Dad was a little wary, but he soon agreed. Everyone left the living room for dinner. Everyone but me and Chloe. Chloe walked towards me but I held up my hands to stop her. I wanted to be alone. I didn't want her to have to choose between me and her father…
I went up the stairs and into my room, devastated. I didn't come down for dinner and Simon and Chloe came to check on me, I just told them to leave me alone. I wanted to be alone.
I put distance between Chloe and I. she was going back to her dad, and even though the wolf wanted to convince her to stay, I knew she couldn't. She deserved this. She deserved to be happy.
When we dropped her off, I couldn't even look at her. When it was my turn to say goodbye Chloe ran up to me and wrapped her tiny arms around my waist and gave me a tight hug. It took everything in my power not to wrap my arms around her , pick her up, and stuff her into the van. Chloe looked up at me and I knew what she was about to do. She got on the tips of her toes and went in for a kiss- which I wouldn't be able to stop once it started- but at the last second I turned my head so that she kissed my cheek instead of my lips. Ashamed, I muttered a quick goodbye and scrambled into the back seat of the van. With my head in my hands I waited for the van to start moving. When I heard the honk of dads horn I knew that was the signal of our departure. Deciding it was okay to look, I glanced out of the window to see Chloe for he last time. If I had a camera I would have taken a picture, so I could save my last view of the woman that I loved so much.
So now I'm sitting here, waiting for them to call me into the room where MY Chloe is. When I finally heard the call I stepped out of the hallway and into the living room where they were all sitting. With my sunglasses on and my head slanted down, I opened my mouth to say something, but stopped short. She was actually sizing me up, she didn't recognize me! I mean I've changed a little, but not that much.
To make it easier I took off my glasses, gave her small smile and said, "Hey, Chloe."
Recognition hit her and her face turned red with anger. "What are you doing here Derek?" she spat out.
Woe! Okay, I guess I deserved that. "I need to talk to you."
" You need to talk to me? Really? Well lets call the news paper, because this must be serious! Derek, the one who left me. The one who broke my heart. The one who he claimed I was mated with, and then left me! You don't look very depressed to me."
" Chloe, I-"
" I don't want to hear it. I don't even want to be in the same room as you." She turned towards Simon and Tori, who were looking as dumbstruck as ever. "And you guys! How dare you do this! Do me a favor: STAY OUT OF MY BUISNESS!" and with that, she stormed out of the apartment. None of us could believe it, Chloe never yelled.
Okay, so that's it for now! So, I kind of hit a road block… so I'm going to need a lot of reviews! Please give me some ideas, because I know what I kind of want to do, but I don't know how to do it! And I don't want the chlerek-ness too soon. I want them both to have a little fun first! So I want at least 25-30 reviews and I'll post the new chapter.
Thanks so mucho!
