Over Again

•16•

<Zach>
We were sitting on the floor in my room just looking at each other for a few seconds. I really liked Chloe a lot and it was kind of weird what Jack did. I just couldn't take it anymore. I leaned in. My lips landed on hers and we kissed. I had my hands on her cheeks and her arms were around my neck. It just felt right. We pulled away and I was a little bit worried about what she would say so before she could say anything I started apologizing.
"Chloe. I'm sorry I just-" I said before getting cut off.
"Zach. It's fine." She said laughing and smiling. "It was really good." She said blushing.
I looked up and smiled at her.
<Chloe>
We pulled away from the kiss and right away Zach started apologizing.
"Chloe. I'm sorry it's just-" He said.
"Zach. It's fine. It was really good." I said looking down and smiling.
At this point I'm pretty sure I was blushing and I think he noticed. I really like Zach. And Daniel. And Jonah. UGH. This is bad. If I choose one then the others are gonna be hurt. I don't wanna ruin their friendship. I get snapped out of my thoughts by a knock on the door.
"Yo. Chloe. Are you okay maybe staying here for a while and I pick you up at like night? Or you could come home with me now it's up to you." Logan said.
I wanted to stay to be with Zach for a little bit but I also wanted to leave because I don't exactly want to be around Jack right now. I just feel violated kind of. Like he just randomly slept with me without me even knowing.
"Um..." I say looking at Zach.
He has a face like if he wants me to stay but he understands if I wanna go.
"I'll stay here." I say looking at a happy Zach.
"Okay then just let me know when to pick you up I guess." He says leaving.
"Alright." I said.
Me and Zach get up and he pulls me into a hug.
"Do you feel better?" He asks me.
"Kind of. But I still don't really wanna be around Jack. Oh and by the way. How did you know I was in here?" I asked.
"Oh um I actually didn't but I saw that my door was locked so I assumed you were in here. I was actually coming to grab something but I never did." He said.
We both looked at each other and walked outside. I walked straight to the backyard. I sat down on a rock and heard someone behind me. I was hoping it wasn't who I thought it was.
"Hey. You okay?"
It was Daniel. Good.
"Yea. I guess. Kind of." I said.
"I can tell that means no. But I'm really sorry. Just know that I'm always here. I know that was kind of a stupid move but just know that he is really sorry. He just hasn't said it yet because he really likes you and he's afraid he's gonna loose you." He said wrapping his arms around my waist.
I smiled and looked at the ground. We got up and I walked over to Jonah.
"Hey Jonah. Wanna loose in 2k again?" I said laughing.
"Yea! I mean...wait-" Jonah said.
I started laughing and grabbed his arm and dragged him to the couch.
"Cmon lets go. This will be my second time beating you." I said grabbing the controller and  Jonah doing the same.
"Yeah okay that won't happen. I'll beat you this time for sure." He said putting the game in.
<Corbyn> (y'all didn't see that coming huh)
I was in the kitchen on my phone while everyone else was doing something else. Honestly today has been confusing. I can tell that Jonah, Zach, Daniel, and Jack like Chloe. And I can tell she likes all of them back, except maybe Jack because of what he did today. I got snapped out of my thoughts by someone knocking on the door. I looked through the window and saw Chloe's mom. Well I don't even know if that really is her mom but whatever.
"Jonaahhhh." I said.
I had no idea what to do. We had to hide Chloe.
"Yeah?" Jonah said.
"You might wanna hide Chloe." I said pointing to the window.
Jonah paused the game with Chloe and got up to see what I was talking about.
"Oh crap." He said and walked over to Chloe.
I heard her knock again and I looked over at Jonah.
"Just answer it I'll hide her somewhere." He said.
I opened the door as soon as Jonah took Chloe upstairs.
"Hey Corbyn. I thought I saw Chloe around here can I come in?" She asked already walking in.
"Uh...sure." I said closing the door behind her.
"Do you mind if I check around just incase she is here? She left her phone at home and I'm pretty sure I saw her outside coming in here." She said about to go upstairs.
"Yeah I kind of do." I said in an awkward voice.
She walked upstairs anyway.
<Jonah>
I'm in the closet with Chloe and I heard footsteps and Chloe's "mom's" voice. Oh God. What are we gonna do.
"Jonah is that my mom?!" Chloe whispered/yelled.
"Uh...yeah." I whispered.
She put her head in her hands. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder. I held her close to me and hugged her.
"It's gonna be alright. It'll all be fine. I'm here for you." I said.
I felt a tear drop on my chest. I looked to see Chloe crying. I just hugged her tighter.
"Where is Jonah? Does he have her? Is he with her?" I heard Chloe's "mom" ask.
"Uh he's out at the grove." Corbyn said.
"Alone? Why would he go alone?"
"He didn't go alone. He went with our friend."
"Who's your friend?"
"His name is...Logan! Logan Paul!"
"And why didn't you guys go?"
"Because we didn't want to." Corbyn said in a "duh" voice.
I heard footsteps walk into my room. At this point Chloe was squeezing me so tight and she was shaking. I kissed her forehead and hugged her. We were behind a drawer full of clothes so if she comes in her, hopefully, she won't find us. I heard the closet door open and the lights turned on. Chloe squeezed me harder and harder and tears were streaming down her face. I just held her in my arms. After a few seconds the lights turned back off and the door closed. I sighed a breath or relief. Thank. God.
"You're okay now." I said to Chloe as she let me go.
She was trembling. Tears were still coming down her face. I looked at her and hugged her. As we let go from the hug we looked at each other and I kissed her. She had her arms around my neck and I had my hands cupping her cheeks. We pulled back and we just looked at each other. With my thumb I wiped the tears from her cheeks. I gave her one last hug and got up.
"Um...I'm sorry. I just-" I said.
Chloe cut me off by pecking my lips.
"It's okay." She said with her hand on my chest.
I smiled at her and pecked her lips again.
"Shouldn't you text Corbyn to see if she left?" She said.
"Oh yeah." I said grabbing my phone.
J-Yo did she leave yet?
C-Nah
C-JONAH TEXT ME SAYING THAT YOU MIGHT TAKE LONG AT THE GROVE
J-Yo Corbyn Im here with Logan at the Grove still and I might take longer than expected..
C-Oh alright bro just text me when you're on your way back.
J-Alright
<Crobyn>
I looked down to see that Jonah texted me.
J-Yo did she leave yet?
C-Nah
"Who are you texting is it Jonah?" Chloe's "mom" said.
C-JONAH TEXT ME SAYING THAT YOU MIGHT TAKE LONG AT THE GROVE
"Uh...yea he's just telling me that he's gonna take a little bit longer at the Grove." I said.
"Lemme see." She said.
Damn she is one nosy woman. I looked down at my phone and deleted the previous messages and showed her what Jonah jad just sent me.
J-Yo Corbyn Im here with Logan at the Grove still and I might take longer than expected...
"See?" I said showing her.
I texted him back.
C-Oh alright bro just text me when you're on your way back.
J-Alright
I locked my phone and put it in my pocket.
"As you can see we don't know where Chloe is and trust me if we did we would come to you before anyone else." I said opening the door for her to leave.
"Okay then." She said and left.
I closed the door and walked up to Jonah's room. I opened the closet and turned on the light.
"Guys she's gone." I said.
They both got up and Chloe was in tears. She was shaking and holding onto Jonah's arm.
