Just Saying

That's What I Like

CHLOE'S POV
I've been anxiously waiting for Drew to call all day.

I need to know if he made the top eighteen.

I keep TripAdvisor open all day.

Just in case.

It's hard not to look at my phone.

I try to keep busy.

I try taking pictures of his dog for digital photography.

"Oh my gosh, Precious. Just stay still for one second!" I exclaimed going through blurry photo after blurry photo.

While trying to get her to cooperate, I wait patiently for Drew to call.

Of course the night I don't have work he finds out if he made the top eighteen.

As soon as I get Precious to stay still, my phone rings.

"Damn it." I said.

I picked up.

"Hi babe!" I said.

"Hi angel." He said with a small pout.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I didn't make it." He sighed.

"Aw babe. I'm so sorry." I said.

"What happened? Did he make it?" His mom asked.

"Unfortunately no." I said.

"They liked Gianni more than me I guess." He said.

The disappointment on his face broke my heart.

"I'm so sorry, baby." I said frowning.

"Just kidding! I made it!" He exclaimed laughing.

"Drew!" I yelled.

"You just lied to us!" Maddy yelled.

"I know!" He laughed.

"Hate you." I said.

"Aw I love you too, baby." He said.

"But I'm still so proud of you!" I exclaimed.

"Thank you! Book your flight now!" He said.

"I've had TripAdvisor open all day." I said hitting book.

"I can't wait to see you." He said.

"Me too." I smiled.
