DIONE'S POV
I can't believe they would put up with a big deal of me having this so-called crush! I just met him, and I think we won't be able to meet again anyway. I let myself fall in my bed. I crossed my arms and thought of something. I reached out to get my phone and dialed Chloe, surprisingly, she picked up quickly.
"Hey girl, what's up?" Chloe spoke.
"My parents are teasing me of having a crush." I complained.
"Oh~ you have a crush now? I thought you're not into boys?" She joked. I rolled my eyes and tapped the end button. Seconds later, Chloe's calling.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you." She surrendered when I answered. "What's wrong with having a crush? It's not like you'll be burdened by having a relationship." She added.
"I don't know, I felt uneasy, I don't like this feeling." I said in a low tone. Chloe sighed.
"Let's just see each other at lunch tomorrow. Then we'll talk." She suggested.
"Okay, good night."
"Good night, Dione."
THE NEXT DAY. At noon, Chloe and Dione decided to have lunch at the seaside. As the waiter served their order, Chloe couldn't handle her curiosity and asked Dione.
"Don't you think it's time to know what you're going to ask?" Chloe asked. Dione looked at her and pursed her lips.
"Well, I just met a guy then boom, my heart got fluttered and I couldn't look at him in the eye." She started to explain. "I just felt uncomfortable of what I feel, I couldn't help but think of him suddenly." Her face grimaced. Chloe urged herself not to laugh at her friend's reaction.
"You know, it's a normal feeling. I mean, you're not a robot to not having a feeling. It will either go away or build up naturally. It depends if you're smitten by him." Chloe said and started eating. Dione is still hesitating and just talked more, asking for advice.
"Why don't you just go with the flow? It's not like you'll die from having a crush you know." Chloe massages her temple. Dione felt that Chloe is getting irritated by her questions, she just nodded and accepts her faith.
"Okay, but still, I'm worried." She sadly confessed. Chloe sighed.
"Cheer up, who knows, maybe its just a harmless crush to spice up your college life." Chloe teased. Dione looked at her with disgust.
"Cringe." Dione shrugs. Chloe only laughed.
"Finish your meal already, let's take a photo at the beach in front of us after this."
"Sounds good." Dione looked at the beach. "The weather is nice, the view is perfect, let me finish this first." She added. Chloe can sense that Dione is fired up because she doesn't want to miss the moment. She smiled looking at her.
When they finished their meal, they went down by the seaside. Chloe and Dione take turns taking pictures of each other.
"Let's take a picture together." Dione suggested. Chloe looked for someone to take them a picture. Coincidently, there was a person passing by. Chloe approached the person.
"Hi, excuse me, may I ask if you could take me and my friend's some pictures?" she politely asked the girl. The girl agreed.
"1, 2,3, smile." The girl counted and clicked the camera.
"Thank you so much!" Chloe smiled brightly while looking at the photos. The girl smiled and bid goodbye.
"She's good at taking a perfect angle!" Chloe exclaimed. Dione also looked at their photos and saw that it was like a photoshoot.
"Wow, I think I might have a chance to be a model." She said in awe. Chloe also agreed.
"Send it to me. I'm going to post it." Dion excitedly said while doing a bunny hop. Chloe laughed and sent it to her.
"Let's go back. It's getting chilly here." Chloe suggested. Dione agreed and they went back and took their things and went to the car.
"Do you have something to stop by?" Chloe asked.
"Nothing. Let's go straight home." Dione yawned and in a little while, she dozed off to sleep and Chloe received a phone call.
"Yeah, we're on our way home… really? Yeah, yeah, don't nag me. We'll be there soon. See you." Chloe's phone call ended.
"Who was that?" Dione sleepily asked.
"My brother." Chloe answered.
"Oh, how is he?" she asked again.
"As usual, busy with his modelling and business career." Chloe replied. Dione looked at Chloe's expression. She didn't ask further even though she was curious and just closed her eyes.
45 minutes later….
"Dione, wake up. We're at your house now." Chloe spoke softly and gently shakes her to wake up.
"Umm… We're home?" She stuttered a little. Chloe nods. Dione rubs her eyes.
"Can you sleep over tonight? My parents aren't home now." She puppy eyed Chloe.
"You don't have to use your charm on me, Dione. I'll just inform mom." She spoke. They went inside Dione's home and sat on the sofa in the living room. Chloe called her mom to inform her about the sudden sleepover. Since it is a Saturday tomorrow, Chloe's mom agrees to let her sleep at Dione's since she was also alone. Although there are a few maids inside the house, Chloe didn't want Dione to be lonely.
"Why don't you call Alice to ask her if she also want to come for a sleepover?" Chloe suggested. Dione dialed Alice's number.
"Hey girl, what's up?" Alice asked.
"Want to come over? We're having a sleep over, it was on the spot decision, Chloe's with me." Dione briefly said.
"Say no more sister, I'm going." Alice said and ended the call. Dione looked at her phone to see a dead call.
"Well, that was cool." Chloe commented. Dione chuckled and agreed. They then talked about what are the activities they are going to do since it's been a while since they saw each other. Alice shortly arrived and the two asked Alice what activities they would do.
