Chloe

Ask

It had been almost two weeks since Stephanie and Keaton had broken up. Nothing had happened between Keaton and I. Not yet.

I left my house alone on Monday morning. The early mornings were nice. The sky was a shade of pink and orange, blended together. However it was still a little dark. I started walking towards the school. Keaton came up next to me.

"Hi." I said.

"Hey." he replied.

There was a short silence, like always. "Um, Chloe, can I ask you something?"

"Sure."

We stopped walking.

"Would you maybe want to go on a date sometime?" My breath hitched in my throat. This was actually happening. "I know it might be weird for you, since I dated your sister, but I really do like you a lot."

I was shocked. I didn't think he would ask me anytime soon. However, I was also extremely happy.

"Sure, that sounds like fun." I said. "But can we keep this between us for now? I don't want Steph to freak out at us."

"Yeah, I was just about to say that." he replied. "Does Friday night work for you?"

"Yeah."

"Okay, I'll pick you up around six."

"Sounds good."

We continued to walk to school. I was so happy, words couldn't even explain my feelings.
