True Love At Last Sight

Chapter 7

  Chapter 7

  "Well ..."

  I said trying to break the awkward silence that has now been made. Dylan's face was still covered in shock. He sat there in silence and had a blank expression on his face.

  I took his hand to try and reassure him that it was okay. I guess it didn't really help, because 2 seconds later he stood up, his hand slipping out of mine, and he made his way over to where they were sitting. 

  Stupidly I got up and followed him.

  When we both reached their table, they looked up at us, shocked to see us standing there. Dylan looked quite pissed. I didn't know why though. I had to I broke the awkward silence yet again, 

  "Umm ... hi Callum and um, Jesse," after finishing that sentence, I regretted it, because I saw Dylan start to glare. I knew now we had to go. So I grabbed Dylan by the hand and took him back to our table. We then paid and left.

  We sat in the car outside my house for about 5 minutes in silence. I really hated the silence. And I was usually the only one trying to break it.  

  "What's so wrong with your brother going on a date with my brother?"  I asked, shocked the words actually made it out of my mouth. 

  His head turned in shock as well and as he went to open his mouth to say something, he let out a soft sigh.  

  "There is nothing wrong but it's hard to get your head around that for 16 years, my brother has never seemed gay. I mean he's had several girlfriends and he seemed like he was straight. I guess I just never saw it coming ..."  

  He turned his head towards me, his eyes gleaming at me and he leaned in and kissed me on the forehead.  

  "You should probably get going it's pretty late."  

  "Dylan, you'll be fine. Just make sure that you brother knows that you don't judge him." 

  I got out of the car and waved him goodbye.

  I walked in through the door, it seemed that Callum still wasn't home. So I made my way to my room, taking off my shoes and jumping onto my pink bed covered in fluffy, pink pillows. 

  I just lay there looking up at the ceiling thinking about all the things that had happened today, and I slowly drifted off to sleep.

  I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock screaming in my ear. I was still wearing what I had worn yesterday. 

  After shutting off my alarm clock, I made my way over to my wardrobe and opened the doors. I stood there trying to find something to wear. I picked out my Dylan George jeans and a white tank top. I threw over my cardigan, put up my hair and put on my knee-length boots, grabbed my bag and walked out of my room for breakfast.

  As I was walking down past Callum's room, he opened his bedroom door and grabbed me, pulling me inside harshly. 

  My first reaction was ... well ... I slapped him in the face. 

  "What was that for?!" he groaned.  

  "Well you just grabbed me out of nowhere! What do you expect me to do?" 

  He nodded in agreeance. 

  "What is so important that you had to pull me in here for?"  I said with an annoyed tone in my voice. 

  "I want you to promise me something. Promise me that you won't tell anyone! Not even mum and dad about what you saw last night! Because I want to tell them when I'm ready."

  "Callum I promise not to tell, or may my heart be ripped out and eaten by wolves."  

  When I finished my stupid remark, I opened the door and walked out without letting him say anything more.

  As I arrived at school, I sat in the car trying to get all the stuff that I needed and find what class I was going to.  

  "First period, physics in room 28," I said out loud to myself. 

  All of a sudden my door flew open and there stood Dylan. He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the car and brought me into a hug. 

  We walked up to homeroom. We didn't talk about last night, and I really didn't want to. As we were walking down the corridor, I stopped to put my stuff away in my locker.

  "So Chloe, I got you something."  

  I looked at him in confusion. He took out of his backpack a present, and handed it to me.

  "What's this for?"  

  "Oh nothing, just open it. I hope you like it!"  

  I unwrapped the paper and out came the black dress that I had tried on yesterday.  

  "Why did you buy this for me?"  I asked curiously.

  "Well, I thought it looked good on you and complemented every feature. When you put it back on the stand I knew you wouldn't buy it so I bought it for you."  

  I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tight.  

  "Thank you," I whispered softly into his ear. And I really meant it.

  I put the dress back in the paper, placed it in my locker and shut it. As we walked to homeroom I slid my hand in his and we walked hand in hand.

  Physics seemed to go on forever! And as soon as the bell went, I ran out of the classroom as fast as I could.

  On my way to my locker I bumped into Monique and her books went flying. I stopped and helped her pick up them up and we walked back to our lockers together.  

  "I have to tell you something Monique, but you can't tell anyone."  

  "Yeah sure. I promise, my lips are sealed." 

  "Well, last night, when Dylan and I went out, I saw my brother on a date and well ... he was on a date with Dylan's brother." 

  Monique's mouth literally dropped to the tile floor. She was speechless and yet her facial expression said 1000 words.

  As she waited for me to put my stuff away still in shock, she spotted the present that was placed in my locker. She walked up behind me grabbing it out of my locker.  

  "And what would this be?" she asked in an amused tone.  

  "Um, Dylan gave it to me this morning. I don't know why though."  

  She pulled out the dress and saw the price tag, which I had obviously missed while trying it on and thanking Dylan for buying it. 

  "You do realise that this dress is $250 right?"  

  My eyes widened in shock as I snatched the price tag and read $250. 

  "I have to give it back. He can't pay that much for me." 

  So as I took the dress off Monique, put it in my bag and I made my way over to find Dylan.

  I headed down to where Jake and his group usually were, at the back of the school. I was almost there, when I hear this noise from behind me.  

  "CHLOE! CHLOE!"  

  I span around as quick as I could to see Jesse standing there blood pouring out his nose and a black eye starting to form.  

  "Come with me now Chloe! You need to help Callum!"
