Wandering

Chloe's POV continued:

After I hang up on Romeo, a smirk twitches at my lips. He's coming here and we're going to have so much fun. He's arriving tomorrow and staying at the hotel a few roads down from my house. Then I'll be right over to meet him and plan everything out.

I had been planning this for maybe the past month. When I found Romeo's instagram I had already sent him a message before I got Chiara to message him. I never told her the real reason why I had actually messaged him. 

When I first met Chiara, I could easily tell she was heart broken. The dull face, the new decoration, the way she hung low. I was not new to those feelings. She still loved him and it was clear. When we got closer and she had opened up to me about her feelings, I searched for her Romeo and of course I found him. 

'Hey! I'm friends with Chiara and she has spoke about you time and time again. I know she still loves you. The way she speaks of you makes my heart break and I'm sorry you guys left it at that, it was either of yours fault. I was wondering if we could surprise her? If you come here, stay at a hotel? But it will cheer her up so much and maybe you could sort things out? I think it would be good for the both of you.' I had sent that to Romeo and of course he was willing. 

Finally tomorrow he was arriving, with his sister Rose. All I had to do now was to get Chiara out of the house the day after tomorrow and my plan will have worked. 

The next day...

It was the day Romeo and Rose were flying out. I hopped out of bed, showered and got dressed. It felt good, and it was going to be an even better when Chiara sees his face. Romeo messaged me early, when I was asleep so he's still got a few more hours on the plane. He says he'll be here around 4pm, it's quite early now: 8:30 am. I had to be up early to sort Romeo and Rose their hotel. 

Also, with this time I found out that Harry's Dad has been fighting Chiara's Dad with the legal stuff I don't understand. It's the reason why I'm hanging around Harry to find out what's happening on their side. Basically, Chiara's father is trying to get a restraining order against Jessica, her Mom. 

To sum it up, Jessica got with Harry's Dad to fight Leonardo with their court cases. Yeah, Leo decided to bring it up in court. From what I've heard Leo has the upper hand due to him being a lawyer himself and related to the 'subject' of the case. Leo would have came too but I think he's finishing up the case. Maybe another 3 weeks and Chiara will be going home! 

I call up the hotel and make sure every things in place for the Bianchis. They said they're all set up so now I just have to wait another 7 hours until they land. 

Chiara's POV: 

I wake up at around 11am to an incoming call. I look at the caller I.D. and see it''s Chloe.
"What Chloe!" I snap.
"Good morning to you too!" She says chirpily.
"Sorry. I was having a good sleep." I laugh raspily.
" It's okay! Anyways just keep tomorrow free!" She says.
"I have work Chloe?" I ask confused.
"Bye!"
"CHLOE!" 

She hangs up on me and I'm sat up in bed, confused as hell. I have work and she knows that so I have no idea why she's telling me to 'keep the day free'. I brush her comment off and flop back into bed. Closing my eyes, I hear rattling down stairs in the kitchen.

Wow, my mom's actually home for once. She's always at Tom's house, Harry's house. I don't know why she just doesn't sell this house if she's never here. It's pointless. 

"Chiara!" Her voice screeches up the stairs.
"In bed." I mumble.
"Get up!" She shouts. "We're having a family dinner, with Tom and his family." 

No way. I'm not going.

I nod and give my mom a look to leave. She scoffs and leaves, without shutting my door. So I actually get up and slam it, giving my mom the message to shut it next time. 

I get ready, but not for this family dinner. I'm going to ask Chloe to hang out. 

After getting ready, I go down stairs.
"Ah you're ready!" My Mom says.

I ignore her and walk straight out the door. I run away from the place I call home and make my way towards Chloe's house. Instead of barging in on her, I decide it's best if I call her. She picks up after the 3rd ring. 

"Chloe I'm coming over!" I say without hesitation.
"You can't! I uhh... got called in last minute to work so I'm not in." She hums.
"Oh... okay. No worries." I fake happiness.

I have no where to go now? Unless I go to my lake.

Yeah. I'll go to my lake.
