Here at home, Chloe had a moment to think about what Jennifer had told her at fifth period.

She flopped down on her bed. She didn’t know why she had reacted the way she did. She didn’t think she had a problem with gay people. Her parents had taught her to treat everyone with respect. Some her parents’ friends were gay.

So okay she hadn’t never actually been around gay people her own age. She watched the Brit teen drama, Brebury, and her favorite character, Elissa, was gay.

She sat up.

Am I a homophobe? She thought distressingly. She couldn’t be. She didn’t hate gay people or did she?

She sighed. Then why had she reacted that way to Jennifer’s revelation? Was it possible she was upset because Jennifer had withheld that information from her for so long?

It could be that. Jennifer had never mentioned friends back in New York, though it was stupid of her to think that Jen didn’t have friends back in the state. Of course she did, Jennifer was lively, bubbly, and friendly, of course she had friends.

Chloe smiled. She wondered how Jennifer was around her New York friends. Was she a hipster? Did she shop at those vintage boutiques that seemed to be everywhere in NYC?

Jennifer did sort of dress like a hippie. Chloe liked Jennifer’s style. No one dressed like that in Ashwood, all the girls wore head to toe Gena. The boys, she didn’t really pay attention to, though Jonathan seemed to be fond of dressing in the brand Rion.

Chloe picked up her cell. She should call Jen and explain herself. She started to dial her number but then she realized that it was 2:30. She was still in class.
Chloe sighed and lay back on the bed. She’d call after school. Content with this thought Chloe drifted off to sleep. She dreamed of loose skirts and wild curls.

Hmm, I'm sensing a little latent attraction in Chloe there. I hope they can make it up.

Yep, I definitely think Chloe is attracted to Jessica but unable to put a name to it yet.
