The next day, I woke up with Lloyd hugging me round my waist. I smiled to myself. He looked so adorable when he was asleep. I tried to wiggle out of his grasp, but he held onto me tight. 

'Don't go.' He whined. 'Lloyd, we both have to get up for the planning.' I said. 

'Fine.' He said climbing out of bed. I took a quick shower and put on some comfy clothes. A black and white Adidas top and some black sports leggings. After I got changed, I saw Lloyd putting his shirt on. 'Hey,' I said he looked up at me. 

I know what you're thinking. Most girl that've only been dating someone for three months, would feel awkward seeing their boyfriends shirtless. But not me. Probably because I have a big bro who always likes to show off his six pack. 

'Hey,' he replied. I got I front of the mirror and put my short hair up into a high ponytail. 

'Why do you always tie your hair? Can't you keep it open for once?' He said. I chuckled. 'You know for a fact that u never put my hair out. It's gets in my face and even if you think I'm really pretty like that, I still won't.' He whined. 

'Will you at  least put it down for stuff like awards and parties?' He begged. I looked at him and smiled. 

'Yes, I will.' I said giving him a quick peck on the lips. He smiled. 

'Good. Now, we better get going or else we're gonna be late for planning.' I nodded and we left the room to find the others on the Bridge. Well, not everyone. 

'Where's master Wu?' I asked. 

'He's looking at the smoke  or whatever.' Kai said. 'And since we never start a meeting without him, we decided to wait.' Jay added. 

I hummed. I went to stand next to Cole and Lloyd went to discuss something with Kai. 

Cole looked a bit pale. And he had the look on his face. The look that came only when somebody brought up the worst memories of his life. Marty Oppenheimer was one of them. It's why he gave me his seat. So dad's money wouldn't go to waste. 

'Hey, Cole? Are you okay? You have the look on your face.' I said placing my hand on his shoulder. 

'I'm fine, Chloe.' He said plainly. He is not. I grabbed his hand and dragged him far enough so the others couldn't hear what we were talking about. But, I don't think it was necessary. 

'Cole, quelque chose ne va pas et tu vas m'en parler.' I said pointing a threatening finger at him. 

(Cole, something's wrong and you are going to tell me.)

He looked at me. Everyone knows that when I talk to Cole in French in this tone, I t means he needs to speak up. 

'Rien ne va pas chez moi.' He said. 

(Nothing's  wrong with me.) 

I sighed. 'Come on, Rocky. You can tell me anything.' I said. 

'It's just that, the same way you're worried about Matt being there, I'm worried about Emily being there.' Cole said. Emily was Cole's ex. She glows to Marty Oppenheimer. 

'Oh.' I said. 

'Hey, the chances of Emily still being there are really low. She took one of the shortest course remember?' I said. 

'I know, it's just I'm scared, Raven.' He said. I gave him a hug. He hugged back. After breaking the hug I said, 

'Cole Stone, you are the Master of Earth, the Black Ninja, former leader of the Ninja and my big brother. You are not going down or being scared of some stupid girl that ruined you damn life.' I said. I could feel Lloyd and the others looking at us confused, because they couldn't hear us. 

He nodded and smiled at me. 'Merci, Je vous en dois un.' he whispered. 

(Thanks, I owe you one.) 

'Good, now go get 'em tiger.' I teased. We laughed and walked back to the others. Cole went to his same spot and I went to Lloyd. 

'What's was that about?' He asked me. 

'He's worried about seeing his ex at Marty Oppenheimer.' I said. 

'Huh. Gues you guys are going through the same problems.' Lloyd said. I nodded. 

After like three seconds, Master Wu finally came out from his room, looking very happy. 

'Master Wu? What is it?' Nya asked. 

'Is something wrong?' Zane asked. 

'Not at all. Actually, this is amazing!' Master Wu said. I looked at Lloyd confusingly. He shrugged. 

'What's amazing?' He asked. 

'Empress Stone and Lord Garmadon are all the way in Italy and have absolutely zero idea that we are here.' Wu said. Everyone shared the same expression on their faces. 

'That means we have a head start!' Cole said. 

'Then we better get to it.' I said. 

'All right. How about, Lloyd and Chloe take on the competition?' Kai suggested. What?! Lloyd and I dancing?! 

'What? N-no way!' Lloyd said. 

'Come on Lloyd. You and Chloe are by far the cutest couple in the whole team, Chloe already knows how to dance, you can do a few steps, Chloe's an ex student there, and Nya and I already saved your butts with our moves once.' Jay listed off. 

Lloyd and I looked at each other. 

'You're using your Psycomms aren't you?' Nya asked. I looked at her. 

'If we want the gem, we need to do this, Lloyd.' 

'Well, I'm glad I have a dancer as my girlfriend.' 

'Well do it.' I said. 

'Great! Now, we better get going with this.' Cole said. 'The comp is in five days.' Cole said. 

'Here we go..' 

God this is going to be embarrassing.😳
