Shawn drove Belle home and then headed to Chloe's house.

"Is anyone home?" He asked when they reached her front door. "No." she whispered before pulling out her key. She walked in followed by Shawn. She headed to the kitchen and pulled out a first aid kit. She returned and sat on the couch next to Shawn.

"Does it hurt?" He asked feeling his temperature rise.

"No not really." She lied. She put the box aside and turned back to him. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close.

"You alright?" She nodded and pulled his head down. Their lips touched, but something was different. She didn't feel the spark that she felt when Philip kissed her. Not wanting to think anymore about the subject she pulled away and said "So are we going out on our date still or are we gonna sulk all day?" He smiled and pulled her up and then they headed out the door. ******** Chloe was exhausted. Shawn had taken her to dinner then they had watched a movie in his room. Ok maybe not watched, they made out most of the movie. She pulled on her P.J.'s and slipped into bed. She had just turned off the lights and started to nod off to sleep when she heard a pebble hit her window. 'Shawn' she thought 'can't wait until tomorrow to see me' She walked over to her window and unlocked it then slipped back into bed. She turned to face the opposite wall and acted like she was asleep. She waited until Shawn had slipped in and waited until he touched her. She turn around to find out it was Philip!

"What are you doing here?" she said trying to keep her voice to a whisper

"I knew Shawn would never let me talk to you if I got near so, I decided to talk to you when Shawn wasn't around."

"Look even if I told you that I do like you, Shawn's so in love with me and I can't hurt him .Even if I do like you." Philip looked at her a little shocked. She did fell something for him.

"Does this mean that you feel something for me?"

"Philip, you're sweet, caring, nice, and everything else I could want in a man, but I'm Shawn's girlfriend and you're Shawn's best friend. I think."

"After what happened today I think I'm not his best friend anymore."

"Yeah. Did he hurt you when he hit you?"

"Not really. But I think I will have a bruise in a few days."

"Really?" She turned to examine Philip left cheek. It was red and was starting to bruise. "You're right, you will have one heck of a bruise. Hey but at least Shawn didn't beat the crap out of you.It could have been worse.He could have ruined your perfect school image.Good thing no one was aroung to see him hit you.Think of the scandel!Philip Kiriakis hurt fighting for the love of Chloe Lane. "They began to laugh. No one that didn't want to end up in the hospital would mess with Shawn beside from being a kickboxing pro he also has his father's police tricks to back him up. " So Philip as fun as this is if I don't get 10 full hours of sleep I look like trash."

"Chloe don't say that you always look beautiful."

"Well that's because Shawn doesn't wake me up or disturb my sleep like other people." Philip could tell she was talking about the many times he had come to talk to her about Belle. He remembered when he had caught her in a mud mask and almost fell out of the window. Luckily she had caught him. He snapped out of his thoughts and began to laugh.

"What's so funny?" she asked

"I'm remembering when I caught you in that mud mask. You remember that?" She began to laugh as the memory came back.

"That was so funny. Especially when you almost fell out the window. Well Philip as much as I would love for you to stay and chat but I need my sleep." She pulled him off the bed. She gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. He couldn't resist any longer. After she backed away he pulled her into another kiss but this time on the lips. She didn't back away but wrapped her arms around his neck. After a while they broke away to breath. Chloe couldn't believe what had just happened. She was in love with Shawn. At least she thought she was. The kiss that Philip had just given her was different. Her kisses with Shawn where always sweet but she felt nothing but security. The kiss with Philip was something more. Before she knew what she was doing she brought his lips crashing down on hers. He pulled her closer and ran his hand down her side. She moaned as the kiss grew deeper and before she knew it they falling onto her bed. She started to pull off his shirt when they heard a knock.

"Chloe, honey, can I ask you something?" Nancy asked through the door.

"Just a minute Nancy! I'm changing." Chloe panicked. "What do we do?" Her eyes scanned the room looking for places to hide him. Where could she hide Philip? In the closet? No.That's the first place she'd look. What about under the bed? No,They would probably crush him. The bathroom? Perfect! She pushed Philip off of her and pushed him into the bathroom. "Be quiet." She kissed him quickly and shut the door. She rushed over to her door. She opened the door and let her in.

"Chloe we need to talk."

"About what Nancy?"

"About your friendship with Philip."

"What about it?"

"Well Shawn told me about Philip's sudden interest in you."

"Nancy I don't want to talk about this with you."

"But you have to choose between Philip and Shawn."

"Nancy this is not your place. I don't need your help to choose."

"Well you may not what to hear this but I would like it you choose Shawn. He's nice and he never made fun of you like Phillip."

"Nancy I'm tired. Can I go to sleep?"

"Goodnight Chloe." Nancy stepped out and shut the door behind her. Chloe waited a few seconds before knocking on the door.

"You can come out now." Philip steeped out and held her hand.

"Today has been a heck of a day. It's getting late, I should go."

"Do you really have to go?" She asked making a puppy dog face. Philip couldn't say yes.

"No let me call my dad and say I'm spending the night at Shawn's, OK?" She handed him her phone. "Hi dad. No I�m going to spend the night at Shawn's and then I'll come home tomorrow to change. Ya I love you too. Goodnight dad."

"Great. So you ready to sleep?"

"Yeah." She pulled him into her bed and turned out the light. "Goodnight beautiful."

"Goodnight." He pulled her into his embrace and kissed her forehead. She drifted to sleep with a smile on her face.
