Chloe finishes her shower

The shower had been good for Chloe. What a rush the day had been. First Zack, then Gavin gawking at her. Then Brandon staring and Kurt openly flirting with her. Next thing she knows Brandon is carrying her back to the cabin. She swooned at how he had picked her up and "rescued" her without a second thought. Then Gavin kissing her. She had been hesitant at first... but it had been nice. But she needed to figure out her feelings so she didn't hurt him or ruin their friendship Walking back to her room she was suddenly stopped in her tracks hearing her name.

"Oh fuck Chloe, oh yes. I've never fucked anyone as beautiful as you..."

Chloe realized she was right outside Kurt's room, AND, he was fantasizing about her. She knew she should be disgusted, but it flattered her in a weird way. It's not like she had gone out of her way to get his attention. Suddenly worried she would get caught, she hurried back to her room.

Entering her room she saw Ashley curled up again. She sat down on her own side of the bed.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

"Not really," the blonde responded hesitantly. "It's a mess.... I'm a mess. I just don't know what's going on with Brandon and me."

Chloe suddenly felt a little guilty for her own thoughts about Brandon.

"Are you kidding? He loves you. He came back up here looking for you."

"If he's looking for me, why hasn't he found me?" Ashley blurted out, then decided to quickly change the topic. "So what about you and Zack? Excited to spend a couple weeks together?" She asked coyly, patting the bed.

Chloe suddenly got wide-eyed

"Oh no, we aren't... we haven't..."

"But you have thought about it right?"

Chloe looked away, betraying her long held silence on her feelings for him.

"Are you kidding me? Girl, you have got to get on that!" Ashley recalled her own interactions with Zack earlier, and wondered if she had said those words for Chloe... or herself. "No," she thought to herself, "not happening, focus on Brandon."

"You two are going to be sharing a bed for the next two weeks. Tell him how you feel, seduce him, strip naked and jump him, whatever. But if you do nothing you will just be torturing yourself."

They both laughed at the thought of Chloe stripping and jumping Zack.

"I know," Chloe agreed, "but what I really want is for him to see me like..." She stopped herself from saying Kurt's name, remembering what she had heard in the hall a few moments before.

"Like a woman?" Ashley finished her thought. "I hear ya. Sometimes I wish Bran..." she stopped herself, remembering that time at the lake that Brandon couldn't resist taking her, and they'd nearly been caught. "Sometimes a girl just wants to be wanted."

They both nodded, silently, each slipping into daydreams of past and maybe future encounters.
