iii). You're basically perfect

--------------------------------------------------

Chloë POV

After school I walked to the door Eben and I agreed to meet. I saw him leaning up on a wall on his phone. He glanced up as he saw me walking twords him and smiled.

"You ready?" Eben said.

"Nope. Never." I replied.

"Whatever."

We walked to the toutor room. For the most part it was pretty empty. A few students sat with their noses in books while looking confused. Eben walked over to a girl as I glanced over the room. I saw Zach sitting in one of the chairs with a math book so I walked up to him.

"Need some help?" I asked.

He looked up from his book and his faced turned fifty shades of pink.

"I-I didn't think anyone I knew would be here...." Zach said. He looked down at his lap with sadness willowing in his eyes. I sat in the chair next to him and put my hand on his shoulder.

"Hey it's fine. We can't all be good at everything." I said.

"No you are basically perfect. Name on thing you can't do." He said.

"I can't sing at all. I sound like a duck." I giggled.

"Well let me tell you we don't have that in common. I sing beautifully." He smirked at me as I smiled.

"Ya ya whatever. Let get some work done."

We worked for about an hour and Zach really seemed to be understanding some of the different equations. He left and only Eben and I were left.

"Well how did your first day of tutoring go?" Eben asked.

He inches twords me.

"It was fine. I just helped Zach the whole time. " I said.

"Hey Chloë...." Eben said.

"Ya?" I turn twords him. He leans in and our lips lock. Unsure of what to do I just froze. After a few seconds he pulled away.

"Uhh s-sorry." He said.

"No it's fine. I have to go." I said as I rushed away.

"Wait" he said as he grabbed my arm. "Do you want a ride home?" He asked.

Is this boy really that desperate. I mean I like Eben but not in that way. This side of him was sort of creepy.

"No I drove." I said without turning to him.

"Okay bye Chloë." He said.

I said nothing back. I walked out of the school. Eben was really nice but I'm not sure if I like him in that way. Well I mean being with him wouldn't be the worst thing in the world...... Oh God what am I saying.

I got to my bike and drove home. I didn't need any of this stressful shit around me anymore.

Zach's POV

I leave my tutoring lesson and start walking home. A few minutes later I realize I left my notebook with all my homework in it. I can't afford to fail any more classes. I turn around and start walking back to the school.

I walk in the tutoring room and see Chloë and Eben talking. I duck behind a bookshelf and watch what they are doing. J couldn't make out any of the words but then Eben kisses her. I cover my mouth with my hand to hold in my gasp. I thought her and Jack were like.... A thing. A few seconds after they pull away she leaves.

"Fucking shit!" Even screamed.

I look at Eben to see if he noticed me. His hands were on his face and he paced around. He kept yelling. I just sorta stood up and grabbed my bag. Eben didn't even notice me.

I stood in the hallway and dialed someone.

"Hello?"

"You're not gonna like this man..."

Oooppp

XOXO ~N
