unresolved issues;

Austin parked his car quickly, and then rushed inside. He was just running late due to his car, he really had to upgrade his car or something. Especially now. Sighing a little bit, as he looked around a little bit. Spotting Chloe and Gemma. And of course he noticed that Gemma was rubbing Chloe’s back, moving over to them. “Sorry, I’m running late because of my car. I really need to get it fixed or something. Sorry again.” // @thechloepierce

Chloe smiled lightly, nodding. “Yeah.” She felt a little bad because of course Gemma would want to be here for her, but she didn’t want to push Austin out, she just hoped none of this would be majorly awkward. She still couldn’t really get a grasp that this was happening. She leaned in and kissed Gemma’s cheek and then noticed Austin. Chloe sat up and smiled, waving just a little. “Hey… don’t worry, I figured it was something like that… you’re alright. They should be calling us in any minute.”

Chloe was quiet a moment and then looked back up at Gemma. “I really–” Love. “–like being with you. I like living here… I like all of it. So.. my answer would be yes but… I have to tell you something that might change yours.” Chloe shrugged, hesitating another beat or two and then just sucking in a breath. “I’m.. pregnant. It’s.. it’s Austin’s and… a little while ago, while I was still figuring stuff out with you… well, y’know.” Duh. “It was just a… a closure thing, I think but…” She shook her head and stopped, not sure what else to say.

Gemma looked over at her. “And I really like having you here and being with you. The you have no idea how happy you make me.” She smiled but that flattened when she heard Chloe’s next words. Honestly she hadn’t been expecting that at all. “Pregnant? By Austin?” It made sense in a way she guessed. They weren’t official until well just now. Taking it all in right there. “Okay, I have some choices here. But the choice I am going to make is something that I really want to do here. I’m in with you. I’m all in pregnancy and all. I want this with you. I still want to look at you and call you my girlfriend. And I don’t give a damn about what anyone else says. I’m all in, Chloe. But if I have overstepped and Austin and you are getting back together please tell me now.”

Chloe smiled lightly. She couldn’t help it, Gemma brought it out in her even when she felt like shit. She gave a tiny nod as she took the tea carefully, taking a tiny sip. “I… yeah, I am… but I also… have something else to tell you first. Or I guess all kind of at the same time…” She sighed, moving to set her tea down on the table as she figured out where to begin.

Gemma leaned over and kissed her cheek gently, smiling. “What is going on? You can tell me anything and everything.” The blonde told her softly. Whatever it was she would be there. Even if no was her answer, and she wanted to remain whatever they were now. 

“I would definitely love to move in with you.”

“You asking me to move in?” Chloe smirked, chuckling as she moved to flop down on the couch next to Gemma. She was still pretty shaken from being attacked but she was alive, right? “I mean… since I’m here most of the time anyway… makes sense, right?” She giggled, leaning in to kiss her.

“That’s good…” Imogen nodded, though she felt like she’d been a bit distant lately. She needed to sort stuff out and be around her friends again. Though after everything it was still strange to think she and Gemma had ended up being friends but she was grateful. “They’re fine, yeah. How’s your dad doing?”

The moment that she got the phone call, she rushed out the door. Gemma felt like she was in daze or something. Chloe had been hurt. Like Annie. But she was alive! Still though. Chloe. Her Chloe. Even if they hadn’t labelled anything yet. Getting to the hospital, she went straight to the front desk, asking about her. She was directed to the waiting room. After a few hours, a doctor came in. One that she had never seen before and spoke to her. Directing her to Chloe’s room. There was relief but yet sadness and worry filled the blonde. Moving over to the bed, she leaned down and kissed her head gently. “I’m here, love.” She told her softly, before sitting down next to her bed, taking her hand. 

Chloe smiled softly as she looked back at Gemma, not minding the rambling, though she did blush lightly. “Well, I can’t say I know the protocol either but… I wouldn’t have minded.” She chuckled, thinking about that night. “But I’m doing okay.”
