[Chloe's Pov]
"You're just saying that," She said teasingly as I bit my lip and countered her with a comment that even I couldn't understand where I got the courage to say it. "I'm serious Molly, you did."
"But....I didn't do anything special," She said as I moved a step closer and felt myself about to lose control and do something totally unlike me. But she was like drawing me in, and I couldn't resist. I know it sounds stupid, but it's the way I felt in the moment.
"You were so gentle and patient" I said softly and raised my hand to gently sweep a stray hair out of her eyes when I nearly jumped out of my skin upon hearing an all too familar voice. "Hey babes."
"MAXIE?" I asked as I turned in shock, and Molly took a large step away and looked to be blushing. Maxie smiled and didn't seem to notice that I was blushing, nervous, and almost in shock as she leaned forward a bit and kissed me hard on the lips.
Maxie's normal way, and it's not my favorite. One of the main problems I have with being with her is she's not a big fan of kissing and I could be classified as a 'kissing slut' and that is fine by me, cause I do love it. But anyway, Maxie smiled happily at me and then to Molly, who was now looking at us with a smile.
"What are you doing here?"
"I was just headed to the courts for some practice," She said, showing the tennis racket that I had just now noticed. "What happened this morning?"
"What do you mean?"
"Well... I woke up at 8, and you were already gone," Maxie said with a slightly worried look.
"I was just giving Molly the ole campus tour," I replied in hopes that she would believe it.
"Yeh, she was being a good friend," Molly said with a forced giggle that died when no one else seemed to notice.
"Oh ok," Maxie replied as she took my hand and laced our fingers together, something she hardly ever does. I thought it was kinda weird in the moment, but I tried my best to push that thought aside and enjoy the moment while it was there. "So you guys wanna come and cheer me on?"

[MOLLY'S POV]
"Sounds like fun" I said as Maxie smiled and she looked to squeeze Chloe's hand a little tighter as we headed down the path a little more and disappeared inside the fence and down a few steps to the courts.
We took a seat on the bleachers at court side and waited for the girls playing to finish. We chatted for a few minutes before Maxie grabbed Chloe's hand and dragged her off to courtside as the girls finished.
Chloe looked up a moment later and gave me an 'I'm sorry' type of look as she walked off with Maxie. To tell you the truth, I was glad she was gone, not sure how much more I can take being around her with the way things had been going today. I knew when Maxie showed up.
If she hadn't, that is, we would have ended up kissing, or so I thought to myself in the moment. I mean, what purpose does it serve to use the ole 'sweeping the hair out of your eyes' move accomplished other than setting up that or more.
God, what am I gonna do? She has a girlfriend, and I think I'm about to get in too deep for my own good if I keep seeing her like this.
I know what you, my readers, are no doubt thinking. "Have you forgotten about Megan?"
No, I haven't, but something you should know is we officially broke it off before I left my hometown. She said she wanted me to make a new start and not worry about being loyal to her and the three months over the summer I spent in Australia without her sure did help.
I don't cry anymore when I think about her, and I can now think about other girls without feeling guilt ridden. Which is why I am in this place now. After my first meeting with Cally yesterday, I was thinking she would be the girl I was crazy about, but low and behold, look what happens when you least expect it.
"Talk to me you slut" A Voice said rudely and shaking me from my thoughts as I looked over and was relieved to see a friendly face. It was just the person I needed at that very moment, it was Cally. "Who ya thinkin about so hot and heavy...me?"
"You know it" I said confidently as she smiled and bumped my shoulder playfully. "Been thinking about you all day."
"I know you're lying to me but thanks for the effort" She said with a smirk.
"Huh? And just how do you know?"
"It's pretty easy to figure out just by watching you two" Cally said as I realized she might have seen me and Chloe by the fence earlier. "Chloe never acts like that around Maxie. I saw the look on her face when Max surprised you guys."
"Just talking" I said, "Besides I'm not into her, and even if I was. She has a girlfriend and I respect boundaries."
"And I like that about you" She said touching my hand gently and then pulling it away. I bit my lip and took her hand back in mine and said, "But what if I like this other girl? She's cute and sexy, great set of legs and just doesn't know how special she is?"
"Then you should tell Maxie how you feel" She said as my jaw dropped open and she stuck her tongue and we both laughed.
"God you are impossible" I said as I pushed her hand away and we started to wrestle on the bleachers. We struggled until she pinned me down on the bleachers and got over my tummy as she stood.
She looked at me for a long moment as I smiled up at her and offered no resistance. Cally's eyes looked away for a moment then looked back to me as she then said. "She's watching us."
"Who?"
