Blurred Lines (An Original Story)

Chapter 7

Jack's POV

I was crying on my dressing room because Conan made fun of me once again on nationwide television, I can't believe he broke his promise and made confess something like that, now Chloe hates me and I'm alone in this room, while she came in and she knocked the door, while I was still in tears.

"Jack, are you ok?" Chloe said, "No, I'm not" I said with tears, "We need to talk, can I come in?" Chloe said, "Alright" I said as I open the door to let Chloe in, while I close it again, "Look, I'm so sorry about what happen there" Chloe said, "No, I'm the one who needs to apologize, I made fun of myself and I involved you on national TV, and now you hate me" I said, "I don't hate you, actually confessing your love for me in the show was the cutest thing that someone ever do for me" Chloe said, "You think?" I said, "Yeah, even Conan acted like an asshole when he made fun of you that you're 26 and you're dating a 21-years-old person who likes you for real, you don't have to care what the people says" Chloe said, "I know, how do you know that?" I asked her, "Brianna taught me that there's not age limits for love, the most important thing is that you're showing that you care about this person so much, that's real love" Chloe said, "Thanks Chloe, that's the reason I love you" I said, "You're important to me Jack, I love you too" Chloe said, "I know" I said as we kiss again, until someone knocks the door again, and it was Conan, as he tries to apologize me for what happen there so I let him in, "I heard everything from the outside, I just want to say I'm sorry Jack" Conan said, "Why? You lied to me saying that you promise to not make fun of me, and I thought we're old pals" I said angrily, "I know, I broke my promise and I felt bad about that and I'm really sorry, your relationship with Chloe so is important to you and I didn't appreciate it, I feel like a monster" Conan said, "You think?" I said, "Yeah, even this girl likes you for who you are, I want to say I'm happy for you that you have someone you love so much" Conan said, "Thanks sir" I said, "Don't call me like that again" Conan said, "No, never" I said, "Take care of him Chloe, he deserve it" Conan said, "I will sir Conan, thanks for your apologize, but before leaving, promise to not make fun of Jack again in the next show?" Chloe said, "I promise, this time for reals" Conan said, "Okay" I said as we walk away together, while Conan returns to the set to continue his show.

The next day......

Chloe's POV

I woke up in a beautiful day with a message of Jack sending me some hearts, he was so cute when he send me those emojis, as I was ready to go to work, while I go to Starbucks to see Brianna again.

"I saw the interview, can't believe Conan made fun of Jack Strong because of you" Brianna said, "I know, he was sad after the interview, he was so ashamed of what happened, that was the reason" I said, "He was mean and everything, Jack only confess your love for you there" Brianna said, "Yeah, but in the end Conan apologized for that" I said, "Okay, but I need to get coffee, I'll be back in a minute" Brianna said, "Okay" I said, as we went for coffee, while I waiting, until someone sits next to me, it was Lindy, "Hello, are you Chloe Diamond?" Lindy asked, "Yeah, who are you?" I asked, "I'm Lindy Ronson, one of Jack Strong's old friends back in Texas" Lindy said, "Awesome, how did you and Jack met?" I said, "We met when we were 15, the day he moved from Galveston to Friendswood, we went to middle school together, in high school he was one of my best friends, but then we had a long distance friendship when he went to college in San Antonio, but then later, when he return to Friendswood on thanksgiving, he brought his friend Sara Winchell in which I was jealous because she was more pretty than me, and then she threw water at my dress, so I threw water on her head, in which Jack was more mad at me than Sara, but she started this, so he broke up with me, and I walk away angry" Lindy said explaing her story, "That's sad" I said, "I know" Lindy said, "Why are you telling me that story?" I asked, "Because I'm warning you about Jack, he looks like a nice and a sweet person on the outside, but he has a dark secret inside himself" Lindy said, "Really?" I said, "Yeah, ask him, he won't mind to tell you, even I know that you're his girlfriend" Lindy said, "Okay, but what is his secret?" I said, "I won't tell you but you'll see it" Lindy said as she walks away from the coffee shop, then Brianna return to the table, as she asked what happened?, as I said nothing, while we start to drink our coffees.

2 hours of work later....

I was working on the newspaper, and then I saw Callie and Richard arguing, I can't concentrate if they are still fighting, so I tried to stop them, to make up their relationship.

"What is happening here? Don't you see that I'm working?" I asked to them, "Sorry Chloe, Richard thinks that I'm a busy person" Callie said, "You're not, I'm telling you that you need to organize your time between work, friends and me" Richard said, "I tried but my friends have already invited me to watch a movie with them, I can't cancel them" Callie said, "Look, I know this problem, I have it once with my best friend Brianna and my ex-boyfriend Westley, when they want to hang with me at the same time, but it was impossible to me, but you know how I solved this" I said, "How?" Richard said, "You guys can hang out together with Callie's friends" I said, "I don't think so, I'm worried if my friends dislike Richard" Callie said, "Don't worry, just ask them, and they'll accept him, believe me" I said, "Okay, I will, thanks Chloe" Callie said, "You're welcome, now you guys are fine?" I said, "Yeah, I'm excited to meet your friends Callie" Richard said, "We are 2 girls and 2 guys, I think we'll have a great time" Callie said, "Yeah, sorry for that fight" Richard said, "I'm sorry too, we won't fight again" Callie said, "We won't fight again" Richard said as they start to hug, while I was watching then hugging, but then I return to the office to still working, until I got a call from Jack, so I aswered in my office, and I was smiling.

"Hey Jacky" I said, "Hey Angel, what are you doing?" Jack said, "Working about a topic about Selena Gomez and her new song "Hands to Myself" I said, "Interesting, guess what?" Jack said, "What?" I said, "Guess who got nominated for "Best Actor Performance in a Comedy Show" in the Shellys?" Jack said, "Who? Jason Ritter?" I said, "No, it's me, I got nominated for my character on The Chelsea Show" Jack said with excitement, "OMG, that's amazing, congratulations" I said, "Yeah, and to celebrate my nomination, I want to invite you for dinner, do you want to go?" Jack said, "Sure I wanna go out for dinner" I said, "I'll pick you up after work, see ya later baby" Jack said, "Bye handsome peaches" I said flirting with him as he laughed and I hang up and I start to jump of happiness in my office.

All day later.....

Jack's POV

I was leaving work, as I drive away to the USA Today headquarters to pick Chloe up for dinner, she was leaving right now, and she was so pretty, as she gets in my car to take her to a fancy restaurant called "Tiffany's" as we start to chat about those last news we got those last days.

"This is so amazing, these restaurant is better than Azalea's" Chloe said, "I know, this is more elegant than the other one" I said, "Yeah, anyway, did you get over Conan's show?" Chloe said, "Yeah, everyone forget it, and they were nice to me for having a girlfriend like you" I said, "Aww, that's cute, even congrats for the that Shelly nomination" Chloe said, "Thanks, Craig told me in the morning that me and the show are nominated for the award, so we have 2 chances to win" I said, "Cool" Chloe said, "So do you want to be my date for the Shellys?" I asked nervous, "Of course I'm going with you, can Dayana come in?" Chloe asked, "Sure, if she has a date or a friend, she can come" I said, "Okay, I will invite Brianna too, to make her company because we are going to be together" Chloe said, "Okay, I'm excited to win" I said, "Yeah, me and Brianna will do the possible to make you win that award" Chloe said, "Thanks, I'm glad that I met someone like you" I said, "Me too, even you are more amazing boyfriend than Westley, he doesn't even text me back" Chloe said, "I know, forget that guy, you know that I'm here with you" I said, "Yeah, it's true, I'll forget Westley because he was a jerk for dumping me, but I'm glad I have you in my heart Jack Strong" Chloe said, "Me too, Chloe Diamond" I said, as we leave the restaurant and we went to a romantic walking in the park, as we start to play around like children, then we fell on the ground, while we were making out, until someone interrumpted our kissing, and it was Westley who finally returned from Spain, as we were feeling shocked and awkward about his returning.
