Hidden Romance

~Five

The week went by faster than I thought, and like my first day, I sat with Chloe and her friends at lunch.

And everyday after school me and Chloe hung out. And sometimes her friends were with us.

We hung out either at my house, or the park or we stayed in her car and talked all day.

She was absolutely amazing. She's Someone I've never met before. And I loved being around her. She was already like my best friend.

Finally Friday came and she got a bag full of clothes so she could stay at my house for the weekend.

I didn't even bother asking my parents, I knew they wouldn't care anyways.

We drove together to her house and I sat in her room while she got clothes.
She quickly got clothes and we headed through her house. She then let me meet her mom.

Her mom was a single, short blonde that was similar to my parents, she didn't care what she did, who she was with, ect. She was very nice though.

We drove to my house and ran upstairs. By that time it was 6 pm and getting a little dark outside.

We both grabbed flash lights and a few lamps from storage in the basement and headed for the attic.

In the attic, we set down a big blanket on the floor, plugged in lamps and set them close to where we were sitting and grabbed the boxes.

There were a few boxes. We both grabbed a box together. She looked through hers and I looked through mine.

There wasn't anything special about what was in mine. There were a few antiques and glasses and such.

I looked over at Chloe and seen that she found something good.

"What is it?" I asked.

"A photo album!" She said pulling it out and placing it in front of her. I got up and sat beside her and we started going through it together.

There were a lot of pictures of family gatherings. That's when we found a pic of her and her two grandchildren that were murdered.

"So that's what they look like." She said.

"They didn't have pics of them online?" I asked, "I thought they did."

"The only pics they had of them, were of their dead bodies." She added.
I nodded.

"They look so peaceful." I smile.

We went through everything and then decided to redecorate the attic, because it was looking ugly and plane.

We grabbed some small tables and side places from storage, some more blankets and pillows and that's when I found an older mattress.

Of course we had a lot of trouble getting all of this in the attic but we finally got it all done by midnight.

The room looked great. Black curtains covering the Windows and some posters on the walls. The mattress was in this little circular part of the attic with a little table next to it with a lamp.

Then we had some tables around the place with Betty's stuff on it.

And then we went in the basement pulling out a futon that made a bed and a couch. We put the futon in between two of the tables. And the room was complete.

"This should be me and your's secret hide out!" She laughed.

"I thought it already was!" I smiled.

She smiled as well and hugged me while we looked at our amazing room.
