'🤟🏼 chloelila'

"Hey!". Chloe shouted at Christian as he retreated from his angry girlfriend after he had taken a long sip out of her smoothie that she had just prepared, leaving only half left in her cup.

"I literally told you that there is more in the kitchen and you still drank from mine!". She moaned as Christian just laughed at Chloe's puppy dog eyes.

"Yeah I know, but i think it tastes better coming from your cup". He laughed, giving her a small peck on the lips.

"Ugh guys get a room!". Klara said in fake disgust as she watched the couple.

"Ok then". Christian walked to Chloe trying to get her off the sofa which made him receive a slap on the hand from his girlfriend with a frown on her face. "Don't be ridiculous Chris, we have loads of time for that later".

"Ok gross". Klara had said in disgust but this time she was actually meant it, which made Chloe burst out laughing.

"So...". Chloe drew out.

"So?...". Klara replied confused.

"Oh come on! How's things with lover boy?". Curiosity filled her voice as she stared down her best friend waiting for an answer.

"He's good, I'm meeting him at his tonight". She started messing with her nails avoiding eye contact with Chlo since she already knew what her reaction would be.

"Oooh lucky you". She had started clapping in delight with the biggest smile on her face, making Klara roll her eyes.

"Not like that Chlo! He told me I can pop by because we haven't seen each other in a while". Klara said with a smile on her face.

"How'd you even meet him anyway? You're literally the worst at keeping secrets and yet I didn't even know about you two until a month ago". She questioned Klara who was sat opposite her, Klara gulped trying to stay composed not sure how to reply to the question she was just asked.

"Uh well you remember when I came to London to house hunt?". Chloe silently nodded showing that she was listening and was also a gesture for Klara to carry on.

"Well the second one I was shown was the one right next to his, he was on his run and bumped into me while I walked out of the gate going to my car. I told him to watch where he was going before he started apologising and because he's such a flirt he asked me to go to dinner with him as an apology, since then we talked and made it official like 3 months ago". Klara finished crossing her fingers that Chloe would believe her made up story.

"So do you love him?". Chloe asked her friend with her eyebrow arched.

"Yes Chlo, I do. He takes care of me as well since I know you're going to ask me that as well". She half- lied and laughed back at her friend who now had a huge smile on her face.

"Leave the girl alone Chlo, she's been interrogated enough today. Mason literally doesn't shut up about her the whole day, so much that my head hurts". A blush coated Klara's face before she checked the time on her phone, surprised to see that it was already 12.17 and she was meant to be at Mason's in an hour.

"Alright love birds I'll let you two snog in peace, I have to go". Klara grabbed her bag and gave Chlo a kiss on the cheek and Christian a friendly hug.

"Have fun!". Chloe winked at her which made her roll her eyes in return.

Chloe and Christian lived quite far away from Klara but she didn't mind driving, she always enjoyed car rides especially if she had control over the music. The only problem with Chloe living so far away was it took her longer to get to Mason's which would have been a 30 minute drive from hers, she stopped singing along to her song when a call was coming in on the Bluetooth system from the man himself.

"Hey Babe". Mason said relaxed, however the pet name caused her to frown her eyebrows since they never called each other pet names and would usually call each other by their nicknames instead.

"Hey?". She replied trying to figure out what he was up to.

"I'm here with Ben and you're on loud speaker". He told the girl, to nudge her as to why he'd just called her 'babe'.

"Hi Klara". Ben shouted down the phone causing the girls ears to ring.

"You're on loud speaker on my end Ben. Bloody made by eardrums burst". Laughter was heard on the other side of the phone

"Are you guys alright? You don't usually call me right after training". She continued with confusion still laced in her voice.

"Ah yeah, we carpooled with Kai this morning and he left already leaving us here". Klara burst out laughing thinking of the two standing outside the building in the rain that just started pouring down.

"It's not nice to laugh at your helpless boyfriend and his friend Klara". Ben shouted down the phone as she continued to laugh down the phone.

"Do you want me to pick you both up then, is that it?". She asked, wiping tears from her eyes, both the boys said 'yes' before she ended the call and put the Satnav on.

13:20

"Hey babe". Mason said once again as he said in the passenger seat while Ben got into the back seat, Mason gave Klara a small kiss on the lips before putting his seatbelt on. The girl tried to keep her shocked expression under wraps.

"Hey Babe!". Ben said playfully, giving her a small kiss on the cheek which made the laughter come back and made her turn back to give Ben a small slap on his leg.

"So are you coming to Mason's Ben?". She asked the boy while keeping her eyes on the road.

"You guys can come to mine if you want, Mason was planning on coming over later anyway. Plus Dele wanted to hang out tonight so why not". Ben proposed.

"Yeah and we'll get you that Chinese". Mason joked making the girl confused.

"Why are you going to get him a Chinese?". She giggled silently waiting for an answer from her 'boyfriend' in the passenger seat.

"Klara, Ben's never had a Chinese before". He replied with a serious tone which made the girl brake abruptly on a side road after making sure no one was behind her.

"You what?". The boys all started to laugh when they saw her expression on her face.

"Priceless absolutely fucking priceless".
