Wow! So many wonderful reviews! I think I replied to all of them but I'm sorry if I didn't! This is sort of a filler chapter that kind of got dragged out. Sincere apologies.

Chloe went to the bathroom, washed her face, and then sat on her bed, focusing on all the little sounds in her room and out. The sound of her alarm clock ticking, sound of her mom's soft, steady breathing in the other room, the sound of crickets outside. She closed her eyes and focused. She could hear the wind whistling outside, the sound of loud traffic a few blocks away, and the almost familiar sound of breathing on her roof.

Chloe quietly opened her door and walked out. Then at the top of the stairs, she took a running start and jumped. She landed at the base soundlessly. Chloe smirked and jumped onto the couch and then the other couch. Couch after couch she jumped soundlessly, smiling at her own little victory.

"Chloe?" Her mom called, walking down the stairs yawning.

Uh oh, she thought as she took a leap to the kitchen. She silently got a glass out of the dishwasher.

"Yeah mom? Just getting a drink of water." Chloe replied, putting the glass in the sink and washing it.

"Okay then," she said, coming down the stairs, "just wanted to tell you that Jasmine and Alek came over earlier looking for you. I told them that you weren't home but they looked worried. Is there something you're not telling me?" Meredith inquired.

"No, not really." Chloe answered. "I'm going to go to bed. Night!" All the leaping had made her tired. Chloe trudged up the stairs and collapsed into bed. All her problems could wait.

At 5:30 AM, Chloe woke up with a start. She looked up groggily wondering what could have given her such a rude awakening. She had been in the middle of a dream about the Order and how she was beating them up.

Chloe got out of bed and yawned. Then she heard it again. Someone was knocking on her window. Probably just Alek or Jasmine, she told herself as she headed to the bathroom to take a shower. After washing her hair with one of her mom's expensive shampoo's, she got out and dried herself off. Then she blow-dried her hair and put it in a French braid. Then, Chloe went to her closet, pulled out the strapless blue belted dress (Link to outfit in my profile) she had gotten a few days ago, and slipped it on. To think I wanted to look good for Alek. She thought angrily. Then she slipped on a pair of cowboy boots, a multi lace bow necklace, and a crystal bow bracelet. Chloe looked at herself in the mirror and smirked. That'll show him.

Alek and Jasmine quietly talked amongst themselves in the hallway in front of Chloe's locker.

"I don't know what happened? What were you and Valentina talking about?" Jasmine asked furiously.

"That is none of your business." snapped Alek. Lack of sleep was getting to him, he had been up all night worrying about Chloe. All of a sudden, the double-doors of the school burst open and in walked Chloe. Alek and Jasmine looked up sharply and Alek's jaw dropped. Chloe looked…amazing, and Alek's "Jocko" friends thought so too. Everyone in the hall stopped their conversations and watched as Chloe walked in, smile on her face, and brimming with confidence.

"Excuse me, can I get to my locker please?" she asked Alek and Jasmine, they were still staring at her.

"What happened yesterday?" demanded Alek.

"You ran out crying so fast that we couldn't find you." Jasmine questioned, gentler than Alek.

"If you two wouldn't mind, I'd like to get to my locker before I'm late for class." Chloe replied, oblivious to their questioning gazes.

Alek and Jasmine got out of the way as Chloe spun the dial and opened her locker.

"This isn't over; I'm going to pester you non-stop today." Alek stated, smirking. Chloe closed her eyes and took a deep breath, determined not to lash out at him.

"Yeah, you do that. Have fun." She said cheerfully as she took her books and skipped off to homeroom. Alek shook his head and headed in the other direction towards his friends.

"Dude, King looks hot today. Can't believe I'm saying this but I'd totally tap that." said one of them. Alek's hands clenched into fists as he heard that and he was tempted to punch someone's head in.

Meanwhile, Chloe was ignoring all the looks that random guys were giving her. One of Alek's "Jocko" friends had even cornered her and tried to kiss her. He had been calmly pushed off and told that she wasn't interested. The look on his face was priceless. She smirked, thinking about what Alek's reaction would be. This is kind of fun.

Alek watched as Chloe confidently walked to her next class. She wasn't strutting like those other popular girls. What is going on? Alek thought, bewildered.

Chloe smirked as she snuck a peek at Alek's face. He's so clueless. This is going to be so fun! She thought excitedly.
