Glassheart: Auradon Taken Over

Part 127 - She doesn't believe me?

Red pov:

I was sitting in class, and someone sat beside me. I didn't recognize them until I saw her fave and realized it was Chloe.

Red: woah... Chloe? What did you do?

She didn't say anything, but my eyes kept wandering up and down all over her.

Red: What all this?

I say, gesturing her.

Chloe: I wanted a new look.

Red: Why? Didn't we just talk about how beautiful you are? Why would you want to change?

Chloe: I- I just wanted to.

I put my hand on her arm.

Red: But why do this? Did Ruby do this?

Chloe: I asked her to.

Red: But what about your beautiful blue curls? Now you just have short brown hair....

Chloe: Do you not like it?

She said with pleading eyes as she pouted. Oh, this is a test. She's has to be  testing me in some way right now, I know my Chloe... she wouldn't suddenly change herself, not like this, at least.

Red: Chloe... you know I'll love you no matter how you look.... because I will always be drawn to your heart regardless of change.

I smile at her. unlike her, I'm a little better at hiding my facial expressions. I knew this was a test for me in some way, but why would she do that? I'll play along for now, but I'll definitely confront her after school. Soon, the teacher came in and also noticed Chloe's change. During class, I decided to pass a note to Ruby, who was sitting on the other side of me. She opened it as I made it so Chloe wouldn't notice that I passed her a note.

Ruby pov:

Red has slipped a note in my hand from under her arm. I glanced at her, and she raised an eyebrow. I then quietly opened it and read it.

"Ruby, can you pls make it so I can hear Chloe's thoughts without her knowing?"

I then write down a note back saying yes as she then watches me take out my gems and quietly do the spell.

Red pov:

Ruby's spell worked. I was able to hear Chloes' thoughts again. I'm gonna get to the bottom of this.

💭Chloe: I need to play this off so I can find out if Red is being honest about this. I mean, what if she's just being nice? I just need to know.... I sort of feel bad for scaring her with this change, but if she can accept me with this new look, then I'll never doubt a word she says... mostly....

She doesn't believe me? Do my words not sound honest enough for her? I mean, sure, I've been more soft lately, but I'm still honest... I need to convince her. Do what it takes for her to stop feeling like this. I know she's paranoid about her insecurities. I mean, we recently talked about it, so maybe it might have resurfaced something deeper? I decide to keep quiet and just listen to her thoughts while doing our work. I was able to hear a little here and there but not kuch for now. I wonder if I can get her to answer my question in her mind at lunch. After 2 classes of thinking about how I should phrase my question, the lunch bell fi ally rang. On our way to the cafeteria, I grabbed her hand to hold without asking.

💭Chloe: Awe... Red grabbed my hand how adorable.

She then squeezed it. As we got to the cafeteria. Some boy stopped in front of us.
