I'm getting writer's block ugh. Doing a time jump again. Sorry. Also, I'm pretty sure I'll get a lot of hate because I'm pretty sure I'm the only one that wrote Luka and Chloe's relationship as heated as this 😔:(

Chloe's PoV
5 years later...
"I HAVEN'T GOT ANY TIME!"
"THAT'S BEEN 7 TIMES THIS WEEK! EVERYDAY?!"
"YEAH? SO WHAT?!"
"WELL, NOT TO BE THAT PERSON BUT, YOU AND JADE HAVE BEEN HANGING OUT A LOT RECENTLY!"
He looks at me hurt, "...huh... ok... fine..."
I angrily watch him walk away and as he leaves I look at myself in the mirror. I was:

in tears

...in tears. What have I done? I've pushed him away... I don't want to go through this again... maybe a little break will be best. I look around my room and tidy up the mess we made. I cry as I pick up my promise ring. I had thrown it on the floor! What an idiot Chloe. You idiot.

It's been 5 hours. I texted Marinette, Alya, Juleka, Rose, Kagami, Clarice, Jade and Sabrina. Jade didn't come.
"-and, *sniff* I got worried because Jade and Luka have been spending more time together and *sniff* I think he's bored of me because we've been spending less time together..."
They look at each other and hug me, "Chloe, I'm sure he isn't!"
"Juleka? What do you think?"
"I think that he, um, probably is really busy. Really really busy..."
"Where would he be now? Maybe you should go look for him," Kagami says as she looks at her wrist. We look outside and it starts to rain.
"It's raining, I think that's a bad sign..."
"What do you mean?" Rose asks.
"Chloe, rain is the most romantic weather there is!" Alya says.
"Trust me, I know!" Marinette adds.
I think of all the moments me and Luka have had. All the times we've had fun. We've never argued like this before. I love him. He loves me, right? I immediately run out of our flat and chase into the night, "LUKA!" I cry, "WHERE ARE YOU?!" Marinette runs from behind, "hey! You left your house unlocked! Juleka locked it and have gone looking at the park."
Marinette and I run around and I sing loudly 'The Other Side' by Alessia Cara

I give up and collapse. Marinette runs to my side.
"It's all my fault. I was insecure. It was scary. The first time, I felt scared... I didn't want to be alone anymore."
"No, Chloe, it's neither of your faults... let's go towards the park and see if they're there."
We walk to the park and I see Luka and our friends. There was a gazebo too.
"What's happening?"
We walk closer and Luka turns nervously.
I gulp, "what's happing?"
"Umm... I think we should talk before I do this... or should I do this first?"
"Just get to the point..."
"No. We have to talk first. What I'm going to ask you is why I haven't had time. Also, I asked Jade for help so that's also why I've been hanging out with her. And even then, that was just Monday and Thursday! I am really sorry and I should've delayed this but I was so excited to tell you and-"
I cut him off by connecting our lips.
"Shut up."
"Hmm?"
"I wasn't understanding... I mean, I am still pissed about not getting to hang more than we could've since I had some plans that we could've done. At home... but anyways! I was stupid. So, ask me the thing."
He takes a deep breath and cues to Jade who nods and goes around the gazebo.
I laugh as everyone holds up little screens.
