Chloe's P.O.V.

     My phone goes off and it is finally my first day at work.  I get up and I go into the bathroom to relieve myself before getting ready.  I look in my mirror and I am four months pregnant today and I am showing!  God I love it.  I go into my room and I pull on some pink panties with a matching bra.  I go with my light blue skinny jeans, and a neon pink short sleeved shirt.  Its getting warmer out so I add some black sandals.

     I decide to leave my hair down in loose curls and I add some light makeup.  When I'm done getting ready, I grab my phone and purse before heading downstairs.  I see that my mom has already left so I grab a blueberry muffin before heading out the front door.

     I get into my car and I drive to work.  I sing along to whatever song is on the radio and I soon pull into the parking lot.  I head inside and I young girl is waiting on me.

Boss: You must be ChloeI'm Sarah and I will be your boss.

Me: Its nice to meet you.

Boss: You will be mostly working at the register and you will get paid every Friday.

     My boss shows me around the place and gives me and apron.  I stand at the counter and I help my first customer.

Me: Welcome to Tropical SmoothiesWhat can I get you today?

Person: May I have a mango smoothie.

Me: Coming right upThat's $2:15.

     The customer pays and my boss gives me a thumbs up.  A girl brings out the drink and I hand it to him.  This is really easy.

     My day comes to an end and I made thirty dollars in tips today.  I say goodbye to everyone and I head out to my car.  I sit and call Harry.

Harry: Hello.

Me: Hey babeI just got done my first day.

Harry: That's great loveI have to work late but I'll call you tonight okay.

Me: OkayI love you.

Harry: Love you too.

     I start my car and I drive home.  I end up getting a blizzard from Dairy queen before getting to my house.  I park my car in the driveway and I walk in.  The house is cool and I thank God because it was a little hot outside.  I walk up to my room and I slide my shoes off.  I sit on my bed and I turn on the television while eating my blizzard.  My phone goes off and I see Harry's name on the screen.  I answer it to hear him crying.

Me: Babe are you okay?

Harry: Can you come to the office right now?

Me: I'm on my way.

     I rush to slide my flipflops on and I rush downstairs and out the door.  I quickly race over to my car and I head to Harry's work place.  I finally get there and I park the car before running in.  Everyone is crying in the office and a lady tells me to go on back.  I walk in his office and Harry's head is down on his desk and I hear soft sobs.  He sees me when I shut the door and I walk over to him.  He looks so fragile.

Me: Harry what's wrong?

Harry: My mom...she passed.

Me: Aw baby.

     I quickly wrap my arms around him and he places me on his lap.  I rub his back and he cries on my shoulder.  He wraps his arms around my waist and I quickly text my mom and tell her.  I also let her know that I will be staying with Harry.  

     When Harry recovers, we walk out of the office hand in hand and he gets in his car and I follow him to his house.  We walk in and he tells me that he is going to go take a shower.  I nod and place a gentle kiss on his cheek and he sends me a half smile.  I pick up my phone and I order some pizza.  He soon comes into view wearing sweats with a white t-shirt.   I pay for the pizza when it arrives and we sit on the couch.  Harry lays on me with his head in my lap.  I play with his wet chocolate curls and he rubs my thigh.  

Harry: Chloe?

Me: Yes Harry.

Harry: Do you love me?

Me: Of course I do.  With my entire body.

Harry: Stay with me?

Me: You didn't even have to ask.

     After a while, me and Harry go up to his room and he hands me the shirt he has just taken off to sleep in.  I inhale his scent and I curl up beside him.  He wraps his arm around me and I connect our lips.  He cups my face with his hands and he wishes me goodnight.
