Stay Fierce

Chapter 2- Chloe’s POV

    “Wha-What happened?” I asked, waking up, soon finding out I was in the local hospital.

    “You fell, and you were unconscious for about 5 hours now. Everyone here got here as soon as possible and stayed.” The nurse told me, worried, “I have to ask you, when you arrived, you already had scratches and bruises that were there before. Do you know if anything happened before that?”

    “I-” I was cut off by Kelly.

    “No, that was there, building up over time. She is a little klutzy sometimes.” Kelly quickly said.

    After that, the nurse left and everyone else went to get food, except Josh. I knew what is about to happen. He’s going to say he’s sorry and he didn’t mean it, but I was sick of that bullshit. Nobody knows how my life really is and I don’t need my some-what brother treating me like I am this little girl, but then again, what did he really ever do to me?

    “Look Chloe, I’m-” He started.

    ‘Save it right there Josh, I know you didn’t mean it, but you should really surround yourself with better people, and not the ones who hurt people without a care in the world.” I said making sure he understood every word that came out of my mouth.  We sat in silence a little after that until he said something at a rapid pace.

    “Chloe! I have a girlfriend!” He said and it took me almost a minute to process.

    “What? JOSHIE HAS A GIRLFRIEND! JOSHIE HAS A GIRLFRIEND!” I teased like when we did when we were young.

“Shut up.”

“Fine, but who is it?”

“Clara.” He said jokingly. Both of us laughed, but then I got a little sad. We both knew Clara had a crush on him forever, but it had to go away when my dad divorced my mom, and took Clara with him on my 7th birthday, when she was only a few months old and they moved all the way to California.

“No. I’m serious, who is it?”

He took in a deep breath, “Nia.”
