A/N: So since I am in an Alek/Chloe mood right now, I decided to start a new story(:
I'm not sure how often I'll be able to update, but I'll try my best. If you have any ideas review or PM me(:
Hope you like it!

Disclaimer: Is a disclaimer even necessary? I mean, we all know that I don't own the Nine Lives of Chloe King :P

"What do mean I have to leave?" I said harshly. I was sitting on the sofa with Valentina sitting across from me, Jasmine standing against the back of the sofa, and Alek sitting next to me.
"Look," Valentina said, "the Order is getting closer and soon enough they will target the ones you love. They already tried to get to you through your mom, and we all know how well that went."
"We think they might try and go after Amy and Paul next," Jasmine added.
"So you want me to go to the other side of the country? I can't leave everyone here! What about my job, Brian, I can't just leave my mom for three months with no good explanation." I said, while shaking my head.
"Chloe, Alek and I are going to come with you, you'll be completely safe there," Jasmine said, trying to convince me.
"It's not me that I'm worried about," I muttered.
"Just think Chloe, you'll get to spend three months with yours truly," Alek said with a smirk.
I looked at him out of the corner of my eye as he winked at me, before I turned back to Valentina.
"Please don't make me do this," I begged with her.
"Unless you want to stay here and watch your friends die in front of your eyes, I suggest you go," Valentina replied.
"Fine, I'll go. On one condition," I paused before continuing on. "Paul and Amy come too."
They all started to protest before I cut them off. "Look, I know I'd never be able to convince my mom to come without her getting suspicious. I know that she'll be fine. She'd be easier to protect than Amy or Paul; Therefore they need to come with me." They still didn't look convinced, so I turned to Alek and tried my best to look sweet and vulnerable before whispering a barely audible "Please."
He sighed in a sign of defeat before closing his eyes for a second. When his eyes reopened, he turned his head and looked at Valentina. Something in his eyes must have convinced her. She nodded at him before turning her attention to me and told me that Amy and Paul could come.
"Thank you," I said, "it really means a lot to me. But that still leaves one problem. There's no way in hell that my mother would ever consider letting me go to North Carolina with Alek, even if Jasmine, Amy and Paul are going too."
"Don't worry. I'll tell her whatever I need to too let you go," Valentina said to me.
"So let me get this right," Alek said, "No Order, no school, no Mai stuff, and no adult figures lurking about. Best. Summer. Ever." Alek said with a grin.

I just hope my mother will share his enthusiasm.

A short few hours later, Amy, Paul, Jasmine, Alek and I sat with blankets and pillows in Jasmine's family room. Our bags were pack, and loaded into the car that we would drive tomorrow morning to the airport. Once we got to North Carolina, we would rent a truck, and drive a few hours until we got to the beach. There, we would be staying in a beach house that Jasmine's mom rented us for the entire summer. She would come down twice a month to make sure we were all okay, and to give reports to my mom.
It took a while to convince my mom to let me go, especially when she found out that "The Boy from my Bed" would be going, but she came around eventually.

Brain wasn't happy. At all. In fact, I think he was a bit furious. Of course it didn't help that Alek was standing next to me with a smirk on his face when I told him. But really, Brain didn't have any say in the fact that I was going to the beach all summer with my friends. It was just a coincidence that one of them happened to be a very flirtatious British hottie. Not that it was any of his business anyway, seeing as we're "just friends."

Paul and Amy were in a corner of the room making-out, and Jasmine was in her room doing some "last minute packing." That left Alek and I very much alone. I was sitting with my back resting against the base of the sofa sifting through a magazine as Alek was lounging on the sofa, listening to his Ipod. With my supersonic hearing (A/N: How lame does that sound:P) I listened to most of the songs along with him, not that he was aware of that fact. I must say, he does have a very good taste in music.
"I like this song," I murmured, quiet enough so that Amy and Paul couldn't hear me, but loud enough so that Alek could. He got up off the sofa and plopped down next to me on the floor, and stuck one of his earbuds in my ear. We had to sit relatively close to do this, so our shoulders were lightly brushing together. I relaxed a bit at the feel of the warmth of his skin on mine, even if it was just on my shoulder. I then made a bold move and turned my body slightly in towards his and rested my head on his shoulder. He was surprised by this gesture, but he didn't make any move of protest. The last thing I remembered was his slow, even breathing, and the sound of a slow, rhythmic melody buzzing in my ears, before I fell into a deep and peaceful sleep.

A/N: Hey so I hope you liked it(:
In case you couldn't tell, Alek, Chloe, Jasmine, Amy and Paul are all going to North Carolina for the summer. Sorry that it was kind of boring, but I didn't know what all to put in this chapter because I didn't want to get to the part where they actually start to go to the beach yet. But expect plenty of drama soon;)
I didn't want the Alek/Chloe relationship to be perfect right away, because I wanted to show their growing feelings for each other. When do you think they should get together(They have 3 whole months)?
Please review and tell me what you think(:
