BLS #7: BREAKING THE LAST

Chloe Regens

“If you’re tired, switch with me” I said to Kenneth who was driving and I sat beside him

.

“You asked that 5 times already in 30 minutes.” He said.

“It’s already 4 hours, I’m sure you’re tired. Switch with me come on.” I said.

“Chloe, I’m fine.” He turned to me in a split second. I turned my head to see Hailey curling to Luke. They both sleep soundly and I smiled looking at them.

“You can sleep.” Ken suddenly said.

“I’m good, coffee got me awake.” I said and again silence surround us.

“So what’s your favorite superhero?” I don’t know why I ask that but it came out from my mouth.

“None.”

“What? Why?”

“I’m not a fan watching that, it’s stupid.” He said and I hissed.

“How can you find that stupid? It’s cool.”

“Action movies but not the superhero one.”

“You’re not cool, Ken.”

“Why am I not? I like Daniel Craig better than stupid Hulk or Thor.”

“Hey! Chris is hot!” I complained.

“Which superhero do you like?” He asked and I smiled.

“I love Iron Man.”

“Why Iron Man?”

“Technology Ken, technology related is cool.” He chuckled.

“Do you play instument?” I asked.

“Nah.. Hailey does.” He said.

“Hailey? She plays what?”

“Piano.”

“Cool.. If a guy can play instrument is so sexy, sexier than he has a build body.” I said dreamy and he smiled.

“Why is that? Aren’t girl prefer a guy who is hot than a guy who play guitar or drums?” Ken asked.

“No.. a guy who can play instrument is hotter and sexier than muscley guy.”

“Well your brother is one those.”

“He’s my brother I can’t fall in love with him, can I?” I said in a ‘duh’ tone.

“I’m just saying Chloe, not saying for you to fall in love with him. Geez your temper.” He said and I glared at him.

“Dogs or cats?” I asked.

“Dogs, cats are lazy and stupid sometimes.”

“Agree, dogs are cute. Big dogs or small dogs?”

“Big dogs, belgian malinois.”

“What kind of dog is that? I’ve never heard it.” Is that even a dog breed?.

“Look for it, it’s a police dog. Police use it to track drugs.”

“It’s not cute.” I stated after look at the photos.

“Do you think I will like poodle?” He said sarcasticly.

“Maybe.. maybe.”

“You’re impossible.”

“Car or motorcycle?” I asked and I know it’s stupid.

“Car, okay why are you asking this questions?” He asked.

“So you won’t be sleepy, your welcome.” I smiled and he glanced at me.

“You’re weird.”

“Instead of weird, I’m hot.” I said cocky.

“Who’s cocky now?” He rolled his eyes.

“Let’s turn on the music, shall we? Justin Bieber or Sia?” I asked.

“None.”

“You’re seriously no fun, do you live in a sea or land? So old fashion.” I turned on Justin Bieber’s song Cold Water.

“I like old songs better, like Westlife, Boyz II Men and Michael Buble.” Ken said and I laughed.

“You sure are an old man Ken.. I thought you’re 45 years old.”

“Old songs have more meanings than the new ones, I love songs with meaning than just love lyrics. So stupid.” I pouted and turned to him. He yawned.

“Pull aside, let me drive. Coffee got me good.” I said and Ken pulled aside, he got out from driver side and I quickly ran to the driver side. Taking over the car and looked at Ken. Taking the blanket and put it on him. He looked at me and then we become so awkward.

“Go sleep, I’m fine” I said as I start driving, I took a quick glance to Ken and he still has his eyes on me.

“What?” I asked.

“Where is the cute Chloe? I miss the chubby and fat Chloe.” He said like a drunk guy, I rolled my eyes.

“I lose weight and workout if you didn’t notice.” I said.

“We used to take you to ice cream shop with Rose and you sure love to eat a lot.” He said and I took a quick glance to him again and his eyes was still stuck to me, my body is getting hotter and hotter.

“That was 10 years ago Ken, do you want me to be like that for the rest of my life? I want to be beautiful and get a boyfriend and even want to get married someday.. I can’t be fat.” I said.

“We all like the chubby you.”

“Sorry you guys won’t see that again, I love present me.” I said and he chuckled lightly.

“Go to sleep, I’m fine.”

“I’m not worrying you.. I’m worrying the car. What if you get clumsy and scratchh it?” How I want to punch him right now?

“This buddy will be fine.” I said, I turned to see Ken already closed his eyes. I smiled and just a light conversation can make smile. Take it slow Chloe, no need to rush things.

The ride was quite when suddenly Hailey and Luke woke up. I drove for 1. 5 hours and Luke asked me to switch with him. I pulled aside and let him drive. I sat on the back with Hailey.

Hailey clinged her arms to me and my eyes slowly getting heavy. Coffee got me awake but it’s like I have my limits. Not long after that I fell asleep.

“Let me, don’t wake her up!” I heard Ken’s voice and I felt he lift me up. I can’t open my eyes because my eyes were so heavy.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Be careful.” Someone said that, after that I felt my back meet a soft surface. Ken gave me a blanket and I felt his hand stroking my hair.

“Don’t grow up Chloe.” He whispered, his hand suddenly fell to my cheek and caressing it.

“Your ex is so stupid for cheating on you, he doesn’t know what he got.” With that he left and after that I get to a deep slumber again.
