"We're here." Chloe smiled and picked up her long board and began walking up the steps. We walked through her front door and headed straight for the kitchen. I texted my Dad and step Mom and let them know I was here and made lots of friends.
"You're sure your mom won't care right?"
"No its fine Matthew," she smiled "She won't mind" Chloe and I made some microwave pop corn and grabbed some sodas and headed for her TV room. She put in Perks of Being a Wallflower and shut off the lights.
We sat down next to each other kind of close and began watching the movie. All I could do was think about how much I was falling for her. She was beautiful in every way possible. I hope she didn't mind that I kissed her. It was my dare, and I was telling the truth. In my eyes. She was the most beautiful girl in that hot tub. I wanted to make a move before I get friend zoned. Oh dear god I hope that doesn't happen. Should I make a move?? Common Matthew you can do it. I was watching this movie that was actually very good. I slowly put one arm around her. I felt her tense up a little bit. Shit she didn't want me to. Then suddenly she leaned into it. She rested her head on me without a word.
CHLOE P.O.V
Oh my god. I wasn't even paying attention to the movie anymore. All I could think about was Matt. Did he really think I was the most attractive? I was actually really proud of myself for playing it cool when he kissed me. I want him to bring it up. I hope he says something. He was actually really smooth with his arm around me. I know its kind of corny, but it was really cute. Matt leaned forward for the remote and pressed pause.
"Clo," Matt looked at me with this curious look.
"Yeah Matt?" I responded as casually as possible.
"Want to play 21 questions instead? This movies great, I just would like to learn more about you. I was actually really excited about this.
"Yeah sure, you go first." I looked at him
"Okay Miss Chloe, What's your favorite color?" Matt said with a mouth full of popcorn.
"Purple. Matt, Who's your celebrity crush?"
"Ariana Grande!" I stopped Matt there with a disgusted look. I didn't really like Ariana Grande. She's not my type. "Who was your first kiss? When, where, how and why." Matt said deviously. I hoped he would never ask this so he wouldn't think me and Cameron had a thing.
"It was freshman year at my first "real" party. I was a little tipsy from sipping my friends drinks. Cameron was sober. We both got bored and went upstairs into a room to play cards cause the party was getting crazy. We began talking about personal stuff and he knew I never had a first kiss. So we began talking about that. Then before I knew it he leaned in and began kissing me. He told me he wanted my first kiss to be with someone who cared about me. But trust me we'll never be more than friends. Were too close." I finished with my story. Matt smiled at me.
"That's really sweet Clo. You don't mind me calling you Clo right." My stomach knotted up a little bit.
"That's what my brother used to call me." I had a faint smile.
"Chloe I'm so sorry I won't call you that." Matt felt awful.
"No, no its fine. I like it. I missed being called that. Its been a while." I smiled. It was the truth, I did miss being called it a lot. "Next question, Matthew, I'll have to ask you the same question. First kiss?"
"I was in the seventh grade with my girlfriend at the time. We were swimming at her family BBQ in the pool and I guess I just had it in me, so I went up to her and began kissing her in front of her whole family. Everyone clapped and she got all embaressed. We dated for like three years. We broke up mid sophomore year." Matt began laughing at himself. "Okay Chloe same thing with your first kiss, just change it to your first date."
I began blushing and got all of embaressed. "I've never been on a date." I said trying to hide my embarrassment."
"Really?! How?! Look at yourself? You're gorgeous! We gotta change that, you're going to go on a date this week."
"Yeah like that will happen." I chuckled to myself. Did he really just say I was gorgeous. I didn't know he was that into me. I could feel the butterflies building in my stomach.
"Chloe Harvey, would you like to go out to dinner with me tomorrow night?" Matt looked at me with a smile ear to ear. My heart stopped. Matt was flattering me so much. He was so sweet. I was completely lost for words. He continued to stare at me with those big brown eyes.
"I'd love to." My face flushed red. I could feel the heat in my cheeks.
"So its settled. Me and you dinner tomorrow night. I'll text you the details." Matt grabbed my phone and typed in his number in my contacts, and I did the same to his. "I should probably head back home now. I'm sorry we didn't watch the movie." Matt stood up and offered a hand to help me up.
"Here," I took the CD out of the DVR and put it in the case and handed it to him. "Watch it when you have the chance and let me know how you like it." I handed Perks to him.
"Are you sure?!" i looked at him and nodded. "Thanks Clo!" I walked Matt to the door.
"Here ride my long board home and give it back whenever." I handed him the board.
"Thanks Chloe!" He smiled. "I'll text you about tomorrow okay?" I smiled and nodded again. I was very lost for words about all the things that were happening. "Goodbye Clo!" Matt hugged me tight and walked out the door. I waved as he rode down the street and closed the front door. I put my back against the door and covered my mouth. I couldn't help but to smile. If only my brother were here.
