"You're sister...She...Her parents came for her...They left you because you're old enough to be on your own as they said. Don't worry dear, you can stay here as long as you like. It's good they took her, they'll take care of her and you will be able to do your own thing..." I hear Mrs.White sweet, soothing voice...

"NO!" I wake up screaming with salty tears running down my burning face. "WHERE IS ROSIE?" I shout again and Alex rises up from his chair, in the speed of lighting and walks over to me.

"Chloe, it's okay, Rosie's in the other room with mom. Bad dream?" he asks concerned.

"Y-yeah...I think so...Sorry about roaring like that, I didn't mean to" I mumble more to myself than to him, he hears anyway and nods.

I lift my head up a little and meet his gaze. Not for long though, oh no, not letting myself look like a patethic idiot infront of a boy again, no way.

"What happened?Why was I sleeping?" I whispered, possibly because I felt quite embarrassed after that sudden scream out of nowhere.

"Remember my girlfriend storming into the house like I just murdered someone? How she blamed me for not running after her and said some nasty things to you, which by the way, aren't true?You cri..."he cuts off there, "You fainted, and I caught you just in time" he finishes with a smirk on his face.

"Oh." I reply and pause for a moment. "Well, thank you for that then..." I conclude, internally scolding myself for being so awkward again.

"That's no problem at all" he winks at me and throws me that  smile.

I lie back down, thinking how the hell did I faint. It never happened before.

"Want to go on that ferris wheel girls?" Alex calls from the kitchen.

Rosie and I are seated on the white leather couch, talking a bit but the conversation won't glue together as she's too buzzed up with excitment.

"I think I'm going to rest...You two can go though alone right?" I suggest.

"I'm coming too! Cookies are done!" Mrs. White sings the last part and I chuckle.

"YAY WE'LL HAVE FUN!" Rosie chirms in.

"Hm well, how about..." Alex starts, as he comes into the room, "Mom and Rosie go and I'll stay here with Chloe? She might faint again...wel hopefully not but..." he blushes a little as he sees his mom give him a cheeky grin.

I'm about to protest, and say I'm fine but Alex's mom decides to agree with him.

"Sure, sure...But ok, Rosie put on your coat and lets goooo!" she says and laughs. In a few short minutes they run out the door joyfuly, leaving that sense of excitment in the air behind them.

Great. Just what I wanted. Alone, with Alex. No chance of you not being awkward Chloe now. Prepare yourself...

"So" he begins, hopping on the couch beside me as I keep staring at the door for no apparent reason. No reason at all...I think to myself

"So" I turn my head just to face Alex. Centimeters away. Talk about awkward.

Yeah, yeah, call me evil...Not a cliff hanger but I had to stop at that moment right? You're welcomeeeee *note the sarcasm there hehe*.

I'm sorry this chapter is boring...It's past 12 am and I'm writing so please excuse me.

THIS CHAPTER IS A FILLER FOR THE NEXT ONE IT'S IMPORTANT

I'm having a terrible writers block while trying to come up with ideas for this. I don't really have a plan, I'll go with the flow. I'm terribly sorry, you're probably dissapointed at my lack of enthusiasm but...I suppose we can treat this story as something that will get me started right? A few more chapters (up to 15, maybe 20) and I will start a new one! I have a good idea and hopefully you'll like it! Love you guys!

Please vote,follow and comment, I'll do the same! xx

Bye for now! xx
