Saturday 10:54

Max's P.O.V

Walking out of the girls dorm, I checked my phone. It was 10:54 and Chloe and I were meeting at 11:00. I looked up and saw her sat on the bench nearest. She's early? Chloe's never early unless it's important. Is she mad at me? It doesn't matter she will be after this. She was completely lost in thought, her features scrunched in confusion. I walked over and sat down by her. Wowser, she really is lost in thought.

"Hey Che"

She turned and her expression softened. I opened my arms for a hug, which was easily replicated. It seems after ignoring me for the last few days Chloe's missed her partner in time.

"Hey Maxaroni" she whispered in my ear.

I finally let go. I couldn't let Rachel think the plan wasn't needed.

"So Max how are--"

"Maxie!" Rachel shouted as she came through the doors of the girls dorm.

Here goes nothing...

I stood up arms open wide ready to greet my 'girlfriend'

"Hey Rach, how are you?"

She ran towards me jumping into my arms. Maybe she should be an actress? Even I'm starting to believe she's my girlfriend. She kissed my cheek and jumped down wrapping an arm around my waist. I put my arm around her shoulder and we sat back on the bench. Well, I did. Rachel however, chose to sit on my lap. She snuggled into me wrapping my arms around her waist. I decided to go for it and tucked some of her hair behind her ear.

"I'm better now you're here."

Wowser, that was smooth. I grabbed her hand and linked our fingers.

"Oh hey, Chloe!" Rachel said acting as if she hadn't noticed her presence. I looked over at Chloe and saw a scowl that usually only David could provoke. Rachel was right. Chloe was jealous.

"Hey, Amber." Chloe said the annoyance clear in her voice. Chloe was not happy. The last time she called her Amber was when Rachel returned after her disappearance and Chloe was pissed.

"You okay, Chloe?" Rachel said innocently.

"Yeah. Fine." Chloe said not wanting to say the source of her annoyance was them.

"So you two together?" She asked still clearly jealous. Chloe could hide a lot of things, weed, beer, guns but not feelings.

Max felt Rachel cup her face.

"Does this answer your question?"

Rachel crashed their lips together. The kiss wasn't terrible but it wasn't Chloe. They broke apart both waiting for Chloe's reaction.

"Rachel, can we talk in private?" Chloe asked.

"No anything you want to say you can say in front of Max. We're all friends or more than friends." she winked at Max.

"Fine." Chloe replied.
