An Empty BathtubA Story by cArTeRanother chloe story. i love u :)
Rring, rring, rring.
I roll over on my side groggily, open my eyes and grab the phone. I check my alarm clock. It says 1:52 a.m. Who the f**k calls at 1:52 a.m.? I stab the talk button with my finger nail and answer with a foul sounding, "h-helloo?" "C-carter", a small voice stammers. Chloe. I shoot up in my bed, now fully awake. She sounds scared. "Hi", I say slowly. "What's wrong?" "N-nothing", she stammers. "Can you just come over now?" "Why?" I ask. "Did someone hurt you?" I hesitate. "Did Aaron hurt you?" "I just need you to come over. Now", she snaps. "On my way", I reply. I hang up the phone and quickly get dressed. I walk to the front of Chloe's house and slowly knock on the door. "Come in", I hear her call through the door. I open the door and step in, and I don't see her anywhere. "Uh...where the f**k are you?" I call out softly, hoping Danny won't hear me. "Bathroom", she calls back. "No, I'm not shitting you can come in." I walk over to the washroom and open the door. She's sitting in the bathtub, fully clothed. The bathtub is empty. "Why are you in here?" I ask. She shrugs. "I just felt like sitting here", Chloe replies. "Come." I awkwardly sit down across from her. "It feels weird to be in a bathtub fully dressed", I say nervously. "You can get naked if you want", she replies. What? My brain kind of has a freak out. "A week ago you said you didn't like me and wanted us to be friends", I say. She sighs and picks a string on her frog slippers. "That's why I wanted you to come here", she says. I have no idea what she's talking about, so I just sit there and stare at her with the stupidest expression on my face. "I had an epiphany", she says. "Chloe, I love you and all but I don't really wanna hear you b***h about your period cramps again", I joke. She slaps my arm playfully. "An epiphany is a moment of sudden realization, ding wing", Chloe says. She doesn't remove her hand. It stays on my arm. "Well...what did you suddenly realize?" I ask. She looks at my feet. What you have a foot fetish? "I just realized that we should be together", Chloe says slowly. This is all a dream, I think to myself. So I say the worst possible thing ever. "Really?" She nods her head and says slowly, "really." "So uh..are we uh...dating maybe I guess?" I stammer, getting my words jumbled up. She just nods her head and I nearly piss myself. "Okay so...your my girlfriend", I say. "Yeah", she replies. "And your my boyfriend." We sit there for a second, staring at each other awkwardly until I ask the next question. "Is uh...Danny here?" She shakes her head. "Cool so uh wanna make out now?" I ask quickly. "Sure", Chloe says. She leans in and kisses me. And it starts.
