《Chenry. I Like You.》Back In Town
Advertisement
Omg! I was so excited when my mom announced to me that we were moving back to Swellview! I had originally left for the reality show, "Kids In The Woods". But now, I get to go back and see all of my old friends. I miss everyone so much. I can't wait!
"No you can't use a pineapple as a basketball. That's just so dumb." Charlotte said. "Well I think you can!" Jasper proclaimed. "Oh c'mon Jasper. You don't really think that the pineapple isn't gonna hurt your hands? And, how would you even dribble it?" I questioned him. "I'll figure something out!" Jasper snapped.
Charlotte and I just sighed. We've been arguing about this for 30 mins. "You know what Jasp? You're right. You're completely right." I say shooting a glance to Charlotte. "Oh you've got to be kidding me." She mumbled putting her head down. "Wait really?!" Jasper said, shocked that I finally gave in. I was still looking at Charlotte and we finally made eye contact. I gave her a "look" as in "just say yes and it'll be over". She sighed once more. "Yeah sure.." she said under her breath. "Great!! I'm gonna go buy one and show you guys that is possible!" He said already in the elevator. "You do that." I said, relieved that that topic was over. "That boy is gonna get himself hurt," Charlotte said. "Yeah, well.... no. No, that's all I've got." I say making Charlotte chuckle. "Anyway, you wanna go out for some froy-" she said before I interuppted her.
"Wait, wait, wait. Hold up."
"What?" she asked.
"Look at this. Look." I told her handing her my phone. " 'Can't wait to go back. Swellview, it been a while.' " she read. "Wait, Chloe's coming back to Swellview?" she said . "I guess so.." "I wonder why though?"

"No idea," she said looking at the monitor. "Maybe her parents found a job."
"Or... maybe she just misses me so much and realized that she made a huge mistake when she break up with me for her stupid reality show." I say trying to convince myself that that was the reason why she was moving back.
"Yeah l okayy, Mr. Cocky." she told me. "I doubt that you're the reason she's coming back. But, if it makes you feel better, I can't think of any other reason." She said sarcastically as she smirked. I just looked into her eyes and thought about the time that I saved her from that lion. The night that she told me that she had a dream about kissing me.
"I Dream Of Danger" dream or if Charlotte actually had a dream about Henry kissing her. In my opinion, IHenry'sthis story, gonna say that Charlotte had the dream first and THEN Henry had the dream of her
She blinked and looked away from me, breaking our stare. "Um, so as I was saying," she says turning around and facing the monitors again. "Do you wanna go get some froyo tomorrow since we don't have to work. We could go to Yotally Togurt"
"Um,.." I say, snapping back to reality. "Yeah sure I guess. I heard they added a new flavor to their list."
"Yeah, and that's why I wanna go." She says not even looking away from the screen.
"Alright. What time then?" I asked. "Um. I was thinking around 11:30?" She questioned herself. "Uh yeah, it's fine. I also wanna see Chloe. You know, just catch up on some stuff," I say not as confident. "Im sure she wants to hang out with me anyway, so I might as well ask her." I have to admit, I did miss Chloe. I mean, she was my first girlfriend. When she left for Kids In The Woods, I was pretty upset. But now I get to spend more time with her.

"Wait, you're serious about Chloe?" She said as if I were kidding. "You actually want to hook up with her again.?"
"Well, not how you said it, but yeah... I wanna try and reconnect with her. If that's cool with you Mom?" I say sarcastically
"Okay first, don't call me that. And second, if y out get your heart broken again by her, don't come crying to me."
"When have I ever 'come crying' to you??.." I say knowing that she already had a huge list.
"Well, for starters. The first time that Chloe left. The time that Bianca left. When you found out that Veronica was a villan. Oh! When you told Amy from science class that you had a crush on her and she didn't feel the same way about you." She said giving me a look.
"Okay, but none of that counts.. it was like ages ago." I say trying to make my self esteem rise after she had crushed it.
"Henry," she said more serious now. "I know you. If Chloe does happen to still like you, which I doubt, she's gonna want something serious. And your not."
"What makes you think that I won't want it to be serious?!"
"Well first-" I cut her off.
"You know what? No list needed this time.. Besides, I've changed! Just trust me on this."
"Okay. I mean... If it makes you happy." She said letting out a sigh.
"Yes. It does make me happy." I said standing up straight so that she could tell that I was sure about my decision.
"Okay, well I have to go." Charlotte said picking up her bag.
"Go where?" I asked her.
"Home. My shifts over."
"Wait but-"
"Bye Henry.." She said as the elevator door closed.
And just like that, she was gone.
