Let me Prove to You (Re-edited)

Chapter Seven

"Hey...Look I'm ok" he said calming me down. 

"Your an idiot" I said trying not to laugh.

"Maybe...but a very handsome and loveable idiot" he said.

"You know the plays in a few days. Parents and the whole school are going to come watch. What if they think because of the kiss that we really are dating" I said floating on my back in the water.

"Then they can think or say whatever they want...we know what the truth is" he replied floating next to me.

"What is the truth?" I asked looking over at him.

"Im not sure...Your the one who wanted to be just friends" he replied.

"Yes..but then you kissed me for "Practice" and I kissed you for "Practice" and now I don't think it's for practice anymore" I replied "Plus the play we dance and kiss twice" 

"Maybe after the play is all done and after the dance...we can talk...OK?" he said lifting me out of the water. 

I laughed as he lifted me into the air. Then he threw me into the water, and swam towards shore. I followed him, but instead of getting out I stayed in the water. He lifted me out of the water and put me back on the ground, my feet touching the sand. Then he wrapped a towel around me and one around himself. I was shivering like crazy, he looked at me "Your freezing"

"It,,,It's fine.....I'll...warm...up" I mummbled.

He wrapped his towel around the one that was already around me, and rubbed my arms "What..about...y..you" I asked.

"I'm fine...I don't get cold easily" he replied "I just want you warm" 

We walked back to the school, I had warmed up a little more. Once we got to the school, Ashley stood there with her arms crossed. I stepped away from Kyle's arm around me and looked at her, with a faint smile "Hi Ashley"

"Don't hi me....What's this about?" she asked looking at Kyle.

"We were just hanging out by the beach" replied Kyle looking at me.

"Kyle I want you away from Chloe. She's not your sex slave or the next girl you have sex with. So leave....now" said Ashley grabbing my arm.

"Ash...it's ok. He's not a playboy anymore..he's changed" I said pulling away from her.

"Chloe he's been a player for 5 years and.." she said.

"I don't care Ash...he's changed now. Believe me..he turned down 2 girls who tried to suduce him" I said interrupting her.

"Ash I don't want to hurt her.." said Kyle looking at his phone "Oh Chloe I need to go...last class starts soon and I need to grab some stuff" he said putting his phone away and putting his sweater on.

"Ok. I'll call you later or just see you tomorrow" I said smiling.

He kissed my forehead and walked away, into the school. Ashley just stared at me, with her arms crossed "Oh come on Ash...Ok fine you want the truth. I'll pay one of the cheerleaders to try and get him to have sex with her and Ill just show you that he won't" 

"Chloe...." she said in a deep voice.

"What? I want to show my best friend that my other best friend is better and not some sex puppet playboy anymore" I replied.

"I believe you Chloe....I'm just surprised that he's really like this now" she said walking away and hitting my shoulder lightly. I laughed and ran to class, a little late. Then I went home and had a talk with my father "Hey dad" 

"Hey sweety..How was school? Your hair's wet" he said sitting down on the couch.

"School was fine...I went to the beach with a friend" I said smiling.

"Samn friend who's your boyfriend in the play" he said holding up the invitation. Kyle's name and my name were on the cover of the play. 

"Umm maybe" I teased.

"Your not dating are you?" he asked curiosuly.

"Play yes...Real life not sure" I answered leabing back.

"Im going out tonight...no one comes over" he said getting up.

"What about Ashley or Kyle?" I asked looking at him.

"No one Chloe. And if your going to call one of these people, not too long. I may have to call you" he said grabbing his keys and heading upstairs. 

Kyle...

I was alone in my house tonight too, my parents were going to a meeting. I ate some dinner and for over three hours all I thought about was Chloe. The dance was coming up in about 2 weeks and for once I had a date that I actraully like. I guess I had better go fine a tux soon, and not save it for the last minute. Cause last minute tuxs are total pieces of crap. I wonder what she will be wearing. 

Also I think I'll surprise her by showing up at her house with a Limo to ride in. Yea...wow I can be a total gentlemen when I want too be lol. 

Chloe....

I called Ashley and we talked for a good hour, then she had to go. I read some books and watched some tv and then went to bed. Dreaming about the dance and Kyle a little. I was excited for the dance and for the play, but also a little nervous.
