A/N As you may have seen I have new book covers, that is thanks to my good friend melodreama . Check out her new cover shop book called 'Kinda Hot'.
Now, on with the chapter.
Eldon's P.O.V
She's back! She's finally back!
It's been 2 months since I last saw Chloe (and 2 years since she's been at The Next Step), and she's finally back. We finally get to see each other face-to-face.
Sure she's only here to help coach A Troupe, but I'm sure we'll be able to find time for each other before she leaves...right?
"Eldon!" I turned when I heard my name being called, and I knew exactly who was calling it.
"Chloe!" I rush up to her and give her a hug, lasting until she pulls away. "God I've missed you," I tell Chloe lightly touching her cheek.
She nuzzles into my hand before standing back from me. "I've missed you too, but I have to go or I'll be late."
I give her one more hug before she turns around and walks out of Studio 1. So much for spending some time together; she'll only have time to train The Next Step.

Hours later I sit in Shakes and Ladders alone absentmindedly stirring my milkshake.
Chloe had promised to meet me here 15 minutes ago, but so far she hasn't shown up.
"Hey Eldon," a girls voice says from behind me. That has to be Chloe!
A smile comes to my face and I turn around, only for my smile to drop. It was only Thalia.
I turn back around and focus on my drink again. "Yeah. Hi."
Thalia mustn't hear the sombreness in my voice, either that or she ignores it because she sits right next to me and starts talking about Acro Nation's routine.
"Look, I know you've been a little busy, but I really need your help with the duet for regionals."
I nod my head and push my milkshake away before standing up. "Okay. Let's go."
The two of us walk back to Studio 1, Chloe still in my mind. So much for catching up with her.

"Sorry I missed our date," I hear from behind me as I pack up. I had just finished choreographing Acro Nations regionals duet and I was exhausted.
"It's fine," I tell Chloe turning around and placing my back over my head and onto my shoulder. "How about we go out for dinner tonight?"
A frown appears on Chloe's face and she looks down at her shoes. "I fly out tonight."
"Oh...so..." I'm lost for words.
I figured we would have had more time to spend together, I guess not.
"Here," Chloe says fishing through the bag in her hand, "I want you to have this." From the bag, she pulls a book and passes it to me. "I had some free time and decided to make this."
Flicking through the pages I see photos of the two of us.
"Thank you," I whisper closing the book and pulling Chloe in for a hug. "I'll miss you."
"I'll miss you too."
We pull away and she presses a lingering kiss on my lips. The first one in months. Then she picks up her bag off the ground, turns around, and walks out of the studio.
My girlfriend's gone...and I spent no time with her.
