Binding Secrets

5| A bit awkward

  "I know."

  "You know what?"

  "That you couldn't find him."

  "Ooh, you do?"

  "Pretty much."

  "How?" I could hear her voice fading away.

  "Long story. Come by my house to tomorrow morning...we'll drive to school together."

  "Sure thing Chlo!" She said and hung up.

Dylan needed rest and there was only one way to make sure he didn't bail in the middle of the night.... Ooh wait it was already past midnight.

  "I'm sorry Dylan...." I said silently as I pushed a syringe of mild anesthesia into one of his protruding veins.

   Lace house pov

  "I never thought you'd take this better than your brother!" Mr Lace said proudly to Kasey.

  "Actually give been in that room a couple of times!" Kasey said looking at her dad from the corner of her eye.

  "What!" Mr Lace shot his daughter a death glare.

  "I let her in dad." Jean answered in her defense.

  "You really are going to make a good assassin Kasey Lace. I'm proud of my girls." Mr Lace added. "Go get me that pussy you call a brother."

   "Now?"

  "I meant tomorrow Jean. No throwing knives in the,dark." Mr Lace answered refilling his whiskey glass and walking up the steps two at a time. "Goodnight ladies."

  Chloe..Amber pov

Chloe brought her hot pink jeep sport truck to a stop and closed her door behind Amber who had pestered her with questions the whole drive.

  "Wait up Chloe!" Amber called out.

Chloe slowed down and waited for Amber, clearly noticing all eyes were on her. Highschool!!! She thought silently.

  "So. Lemme get this right...why is Dylan half naked in your house?"

  "Uuuggh!" Chloe sighed. "This is like the millionth time your asking that question in the last ten minutes!!"

  "I know." Amber squirmed. "I'm sorry." She added almost in a whisper.

  "I had to knock him out or he'd have left with that scar on his gorge......" She stopped herself just before the word gorgeous came out, but Amber was already grinning devilishly.

  "Amber Daniels!" A voice behind them startled them and Amber let out a low squill and clang onto Chloe's arm.

  "Jean." Amber replied

  "Imma be straight forward....where's Dylan!"

  "Dylan is....." Chloe started but Amber quickly cut her off.

  "I haven't seen him in a while." Amber filled in shakily adding, " besides I'm mad at him!" With a bit more courage.

     Jean came uncomfortably close to Amber's  face and breathed intimidatingly, " and you sure of what your telling me?"

  Amber was visiting shaken. " A hundred percent. Now could you move away from my face?" She added politely.

Jean moved and started walking away whilst talking. "Be sure to tell him I was looking for him when yo see him around."

  "I will. You tell him I'm still mad at him when you see him." Amber said as they started walking towards school but then turned and added. "Try calling him, he's got a phone you know!"

Jean turned towards them a full smile curving from ear to ear. " Hey! Wait right there."

It took a few powerful strides and jeans was right next to them. "You're smart....why do you hung around Dylan anyway?"

'Okay! Do you really know your brother you dweeb. He's the smartest kid in this school considering the fact that he's never attentive in class but more often top of class. You're not half as smart you asshole' Amber said in her head but wasn't brave enough to say it to Jean's face.

   "Snap, snap." Jean was snapping in Amber's face to get her out of the trance she was apparently in. " hope you said hi to God for me." Jean laughed.

  "Hahaha....ever considered comedy as a career."Amber hissed back sarcastically.

  "I'm getting late for class. So I'll just hurry on."Chloe offered obviously getting irritated.

  "No.  You stay." She looked at Chloe murderously then turned to Amber " you call him for me."

Amber pulled her phone from her jean pocket and dialed Dee. A phone rang in Chloe's bag and they all turned to stare at her.

Chloe pulled Dylan's phone out of her bag and held it out in front of them before feigning surprise....."ooh I had it with me all along."

  "And why do you have Dylan's phone with you?" Jean asked seriously rattled.

  'There's no way we're getting out of this one' Amber thought silently swallowing a lump.

  "Well, well......" Chloe stalled looking for a believable excuse then sighed. " I'm his girlfriend. He left it with me yesterday when he rushed out of school." Chloe blurted out without thinking.

  "Hmm." Jean breathed out." At least he's not completely stupid. He's got taste. Tell your cuddle buddy I was looking for him." She added with a mischievous smile playing on her lips.

  "I will." Chloe replied returning the smile.

  "Good." Jean said walking away.

  "Who's that?" Chloe asked as soon as they were at a safe distance.

  "Two words. BAD NEWS!"

  "Who is she? And why is she in black."

  "Dylan's shadow....sorry, I mean sister. About the black you can go back and ask her."

  "I'd rather fuck the principal!" Chloe whispered as Amber held the form door for her and the both laughed lightly.

  "Cmon. Let's go in we're already late." Amber offered.

The say ended as fast as it initially began.

  "Don't tell Dylan I said he was my boyfriend. We both know I'm helping him because he's your friend and you're mine " Chloe said as she loosened her seatbelt and stepped out of the car.

They were halfway up the steps when a husky voice stopped them.

  "People at least say hallo when they come in!" He said in mock tone.

Chloe's knees were weak but she was never one to break easily. But they were both transfixed on the live Michelangelo statue infront of them.

How did this guy manage to look so glorious.
