Promises

Chapter 6

I can't stop thinking about Ashton it's like everything is gone but him. The kiss happened over a week ago and I still can't get it out of my head. He told me that he wanted to kiss me for awhile. But I found that hard to believe. I'm not even that pretty or cool or even skinny. He could've gone to Aria or Hailey or any other girl but he choose him. I still find that hard to believe.

Homecoming was only 3 days away and I still didn't have a date. Aria was going Luke and Hailey was going Michael. I hope I'm not a third wheel again. Ashton and I haven't talked since the kiss and I'm beyond scared about it. What if he thinks I'm weird and not happy about the kiss because believe me I loved it. I wish it could've lasted longer but my dad had to ruin the moment. Great timing dad.

I sipped my coffee as me and Aria studied for our history. I hadn't told her or Hailey about the kiss but she could tell I was acting weird.

"Hey are you okay? You've been acting different lately." Aria said with a questioning face.

"No it's nothing don't worry about." I said back with a forced smile.

"Oh I know it's something spill." Aria said.

"Okay fine. So last week me and Ashton were hanging watching movies together and then we kissed and it surprised me. But then when he was about to leave he told he wanted to do that for awhile." I said.

"Well it's not that big of a deal. But I'm still happy for you. We all know you and ash would kiss sometime. You guys would be a cute couple." Aria smiled.

"Well thanks but that's probably not gonna happen. I'm not that pretty anyway." I said.

"You stop right there Chloe. You're an amazing girl so go get and be with Ashton." Aria said.

I smiled and thanked her. Then we continued to study for what seemed like for hours until our brains were fried. Then Aria went home and I thought about what she said.

I decided to text Ashton and finally end the awkwardness.

Chloe
"Hey what's up?"

Ashton
" Nothing much hbu?"

Chloe
" Same hey could I ask you something?"

Ashton
"Uh okay should I be worried?"

Chloe
"Well it's kinda been weird since the kiss and I just wanted to make sure we're still like friends"

Ashton
"Yeah of course or at least I hope so "

Chloe
"Okay good just making sure lol"

Ashton
"Okay cool well text ya later"

Chloe
"Byeee"

After a few hours of doing absolutely nothing I decided to call Hailey.

"Hello?" Hailey said.

"Hey um I'm so bored wanna come over??" I asked.

"Damn you're always bored. Should I bring the usual pizza and pepsi?" She asked laughing slightly.

"Well duh you know I can't cook for shit." I chuckled.

Then we exchanged our goodbye and I cleaned up the living room. I turned on me and Haileys favorite show PLL on Netflix as I waited for her. After about 15 minutes I heard my front door open. I quickly ran over confused to see the one and only Hailey.

"Geez Hails you scared me." I said.

"What you forget I have a spare key." Hailey chuckled.

I shook my head and saw she was struggling to hold all the food in her little arms.

" Need some help there??" I laughed.

She gave a "well no shit" face and headed me the large pizza box.

"Oh and by the way I'm sleeping over it you don't mind and I don't really care if you do." Hailey said as she sat down on the couch.

I just nodded and laughed as we started to eat out of the large pizza box. We talked about random things as we ate and watched Netflix. I grabbed the last piece of pizza and smirked at Hailey as she looked at me in defeat. Then I decided it would time to tell Hailey about the kiss.

"So um I gotta ask you something Hailey." I said alittle nervous.

"Oh what is it?? What is it a boy!! Has my best friend got a new boy toy???" Hailey asked with excitement.

"You already know about Ashton." I said with a sigh.

"Oh that boy I see." Hailey said while rubbing her chin.

"Okay so um me and Ash were hanging out last week and as the movie ended we were talking and then he kissed me and started to get heated but then my dad come in and stopped that. But I walked him outside and he told me that he wanted to do that for awhile. Then we didn't talk for like a week and I just texted him a few hours ago and he said were fine and still friends but I made so awkward. Ahh please help me" I said.

Hailey looked at me with wide eyes and then sighed.

"Well you're experiencing your first relationship." Hailey said with a smile.

I looked at her dumbfounded. Did she mean that like me and ash were dating because if we are I didn't know. She could tell I was confused.

"What I mean is like you and Ash kissed and you both CLEARLY liked it so and of course it's gonna be weird after it so just try to act fine and normal when you're talking with him." Hailey said.

"God I don't know what I would so without you Hails." I sighed and gave her a hug.

-----
I woke up next morning to hear Hailey blasting MCR in my bathroom. I groaned and rolled over trying to fall back asleep. My eyes glanced over at the clock. It read 7:05 am. Oh shit school started in 20 minutes. I jumped out of bed and ran over to my closet grabbed a hoodie and jeans. I pulled the hoodie over my shirt not bothering to change it and changed out of sweatpants into my skinny jeans. I walked into the bathroom to see Hailey doing her makeup. She was definitely more good with makeup then I am. So I let her do my makeup and she did it to perfection then I braided my hair. After we got ready we got breakfast and headed for school.
