I used google translate for any Spanish spoke so I do apologize if they are incorrect. I will put the English translation in brackets beside it.

Chloe POV:

"Breakfast is ready!" I heard mom call up the stairs.

I groaned and looked at my clock to see it was 9am. I overslept!! I jumped out of bed and quickly got ready before grabbing my bag and running downstairs.

"Sorry mom I can't stay, I'm running late. Oh hello Jacob, how are you?" I asked as I ran towards the door.
"Hang on a minute you can at least eat a piece of toast." Mom called.
"But mom, I'll be late for school. Besides, i'm not that hungry." I whined turning to face my family at the table.
"I don't care. You'll do better in school if you have something to eat. You don't even have your lunch."
"I'll get lunch in there. They have chicken rolls today, that sounds nice." i said trying to avoid eating.
"Chloe." She warned.
"Fine." I groaned and grabbed a piece off toast of Troyes plate.
"Here's your lunch." Sage said handing it to me.
"Thanks. Now can i go." i sighed.
"Have a good day at school sweetie, Troye will be picking you up today." Dad called.
"That's ok I can walk home." I called as I opened the door.
"Don't walk home it will be dark." Troye called as I closed the door and ran to school.

*Lunch*

I closed my locker and made my way to the cafeteria. I threw my lunch onto the table and sat with my glee friends. I just picked at my lunch and listened to everyone talking until the bell rang. I threw my roll into the bin and went to class.

"Hey Chloe."
I turned to see Kurt coming towards me.
"Hey Kurt, you alright." I asked.
"Yea. Are you? YOu seemed............ out of it at lunch."
"Yea I'm fine. just stressed of the competition coming up."I smiled.
"Oh is your family finally coming." He asked, excited.
"No." I shook my head.
My family didn't even know I was in the glee group.
"Aww." his face dropped.
"Why are you hopeful of my family coming to competitions?"
"So they can hear your amazing voice."
"You mean so Troye can." I pointed.
He shrugged.
"Anyway, let's go to class." I said linking arms with him.

*After school*

"Hey squirt." Troye smiled as I got into the back of the car.
"Hi Troye, Jacob." I sighed putting on my belt.
"Everything alright?" Jacob asked as Troye started driving.
"Yea, just long day." I said.
"To be expected. How did your Spanish test go?"
"Bien gracias a ti. No sabía que podías hablar español. (good thanks to you. I didn't know you could speak Spanish.)"
"No soy medio estúpido, sabes. (I'm not half stupid you know.)"
"Say what you like, i still believe you are." I laughed.
"Why thank you very much." He said pretending to be insulted.
"I'm sure your used to it." I joked.
Troye looked at us weirdly causing us to laugh.

We pulled up to the house and i grabbed my bag while jumping up. Mom was standing at the cooker when I went in. I smiled and kissed her cheek before making my way into my room to start homework. There was a knock on my door.

"Come in."
"Dinners ready." Steele said as he opened it.
"Cool." I said with a fake smile.

I grabbed my phone and made my way downstairs. Everyone was sitting waiting. I placed my phone upside down on the table as I said down. Dad handed me a plate and I put a spoonful of rice and a spoonful of salad on my plate. I noticed my brother looking at my plate as I picked up my fork but didn't say anything. I started picking at it when my phone went off. I picked it up to see it was from Mister Schue in the group chat.

'Practice tomorrow after school till 7pm. Everyone who is doing competition must be there or else taken out of competition altogether unless there is a valid reason.'

"I'll be home late after school tomorrow." I said as I looked at my phone.
"Why?" Mum asked before placing some food in her mouth.
"I have a project in Bio that needs to be done. Samantha and I are working together." I said, partly lying.
"Will you be back in time for dinner."
"No. I'll need money if you don' mind." I smiled.
"I suppose you can." She sighed.

I smiled and looked back down at my food. I ate two forkfuls of rice and salad before moving the food around to look like I ate more then I actually did.

"Thanks for dinner mom." I said standing up.

I made my way upstairs but not before seeing Steele and Troye looking at each other before looking at me with concern. I rolled my eyes and went to my room to finish my homework.
