Chapter 4: The Pool Party
Chapter 4
“Thanks for the ride, Dad!” Tony and Chloe got out of the car after the one hour drive to Peter’s house. “Yeah..Yeah..I'll be back to get you in 3 hours.” Their father had to get back to the house since he wasn’t going to wait for 3 hours. Peter walked over, his right hand up, his fingers in a fist to the sky. “You guys made it!.” He said excitedly. He then notices Chloe and smiles. “You look pretty tonight, Chloe.” “Thank you. You do too.” She replied steadily He did a slight bow. “My lady.” Tony snorted at Peter’s gesture in disgust. He knew all too well that Peter liked Chloe. “You wanna come hang out with me at the pool's lounge chairs? I was just finishing a game of Uno. Do you play?.” Peter added to Chloe. She smiled uneasily. “So you haven’t played Uno before?.” Peter tilted his head at her in confusion. “I have.” Chloe replied quietly. He chuckled. “Great! I challenge you to a Uno game.” Tony, meanwhile, was on the highest diving board. “Hey Chloe! Watch this!.” He shouted to his sister, ready to be a show-off. “What are you going to do?.” Chloe answered as she turned around to get a look of her brother. “Going to do a cannonball.” Tony replied. “Does your brother always do that?.” Peter asked, amused. “Yes, he always does that.” She replied, embarrassed. “CANNONBALL!.” Tony jumped, doing a flip and landing in the water, spraying his sister’s hair in the splash. “TONY YOU STINKER! YOU GOT ME ALL WET!.” She stormed over to her brother and slapped him. “Ow!.” Tony complained as he rubbed his bleeding cheek. “I'll call the private doctor. The mark seems to be bleeding.” Peter said, signaling the doctor over, whom was nearby, helping a boy who seemed to have a broken ankle. Tony mouthed three words in Chloe's ear “I. Hate. You…" The words came out like acid going down her throat. Her eyes widened in shock to her brother's words “Tony.. I..I..I didn't mean t-…"Her brother had looked away before she could finish her sentence. “The young man will recover. but if he keeps an icepack over his cheek for an hour or so..” The doctor was saying to Peter as he handed the patient an icepack. “Chloe?...I...I can't believe what I just saw…" he turns around and was about to walk away, but he turned back for a moment. “I like you Chloe..but this…" He walked off. “Wait! but I didn't mean to do that!.” Chloe protested, desperately. Peter stopped walking away to glanced back “You may not have not meant to do it...But I...never seen you act this way...I'm sorry Chloe…" He walks to a table, a girl with reddish brown hair sat. “Hi Mellissa.” Melissa looked up. “Hi Peter.” She answered. “How are you? Mind if I sit down?.” He nods at the empty chair opposite side of her. Melissa nodded. “Sure, and i’m doing okay.” Peter smirked as he sat down. “Liking the party?.” He asked as curious as a cat. “Yes! I'm totally loving it!.” His companion replied with excitement in her voice. “Did you see Ravenwood leap from the diving board? I couldn't believe he actually did that.” Peter was impressed with Tony. “Yeah, I saw it.” Melissa shrugged. Tony was watching Peter and Melissa then spotted his sister alone on a lounge chair and decided to go apologize. He walks over to his sister “Chloe?….” He said, his voice full of regret and sadness. Chloe looked up at her brother, a bit of the anger still in her gaze. “What do you want?.” She asked, just then noticing her brother’s sadness and regret in his eyes. “I...I'm sorry..I shouldn't have said those things...Just wanted to say that..I'll leave you alone now…” he was about to walk off with shame. “I also didn't mean to slap you, I'm sorry..” She said, before her brother could walk off. “Siblings?…" He held out his hand, uncertainly. “Siblings!.” She retorted brightly and took his hand. They shook. “Peter's sitting with Melissa. You can go join 'em if ya want. Peter really does care about you..plus it's been 20 minutes so I'm guessing he's okay now.” He gave her a knowing smile. “Melisa? How come Krystee's not with you?. I know how close you two are.” The two of them were almost sisters. Not quite exactly, but as close to family due to the fact that Krystee’s father had abused her and then disowned her. Her mother had died of cancer so Melissa’s family had taken her in. “Alright, I'll go there.” Chloe answered her brother. She heard some of the parts of Peter’s conversation with Melissa, hoping they weren’t going behind her back. ‘Stop, Peter wouldn’t backstab you.’ ‘Why not?.’ Demanded a voice inside her head. ‘if he was your friend, would he just walk away?.’ ‘Stop thinking.’ She felt the voice and her thoughts vanished. “Have fun. Peter and Chloe Sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G.” Tony was doing a little dance around her. She ignored that comment. “She's getting some snacks. She'll be back in a moment.” The conversation was clear now since she had moved a bit closer and breathed a sigh of relief. “Oh. There she is.” he was nodding at a blonde girl walking towards the table, her arms loaded with snacks. “Hey bestie. Oh and hi Peter.” Krystee said to Melissa before noticing Peter and added to Peter. “‘sup?.” Peter greeted. “Quit standing here like a statue! Come on!.” Tony started pushing his sister towards them, hearing what the three were chatting about. “Hey, what did you get?.” Melissa asked, raising her eyebrow at her adopted sister. “Popcorn and some candy. M & Ms, Snickers, Twix.” Krystee ignored the glare Melissa was giving her. Chloe sighed and walked towards them. “Hey guys…” She mumbled nervously. “Oh hey Chloe…” Peter smiled thinly. Krystee whispers in Melisa's ear. “I ship them..” She was nodding at Peter and Chloe with a knowing smile. She whispers back “I guess..now shh!..I wanna see how it goes…" She hissed softly. “Look..Sorry for just..walking away like that..You don't deserve a moron like me..” Peter bowed his head in shame. “I… I actually didn't meant to slap my brother like that..” Chloe admitted. Peter looked back up and shrugged. "It happens with my two older sisters. Good thing they're both in College.” He rolled his eyes at the mention of his sisters, Madison and Taylor. Krystee whispers in Melissa's ear again. “I got a idea...you shove Peter and i'll shove Chloe...What'd ya think?.” “That’s a good idea” Melissa said. “So…” Peter shrugged. Krystee slid closer to Chloe, about to shove her. “Hey, Peter, go and kiss Chloe.” Melissa grinned. “Uh…I’d rather not…” He was confused. Since when did Melissa ever ask anyone to do that?. Tony was nearby, listening to everything, but didn’t make a move to interrupt his sister and her Romeo. Krystee smirked at Melissa and shoved Chloe into Peter. Peter wasn’t expecting that. Chloe’s eyes widened in shock and stumbled into Peter, his arms catching her. As for his mouth, they ended up to her mouth. With his lips so close, Peter felt his cheeks redden but relaxed after a moment. “Oh my god, I’m sorry!” Chloe said. Peter glared at Krystee and Melissa. “Both of you are so dead.” He got a nerf gun and aimed it at the two, in which, were laughing like crazy. “Oh no he’s gonna kill us!.” They cried with laughter. He shot two darts each at them before being satisfied. “Ow!” They both said in a sarcastic way. Peter rolled his eyes at the sarcasm. “You two better stop ruining the scene." Tony grunted at Krystee and Melissa. “Alright, Tony.” they stopped laughing. Tony smirked. Peter was red as a tomato. “So, what should we do now?.” Chloe asked. “Truth Or Dare!.” Krystee declared. Peter’s face went redder than ever. “Sure, who will go first?.” Peter sighed. “I’ll go first. Tony, truth or dare?,.” “Dare.” Tony shrugged. “I dare you to kiss Melissa.” Melissa turned red in embarrassment. “W-W-What?!.” Tony stammered, his cheeks equally red. “I dared you to do it.” Peter grinned. ”Fine..” Tony grumbled. “This is going to be very embarrassing.” Melissa muttered. “Let's just get this over with..." Tony sighed. “It’s okay if you don't want to. Melissa, truth or dare?.” Chloe asked. “Dare.” Melissa said. “I have a bad idea about this…” Tony mumbled.
