The 24 contingent has one more in the Bar. Not that this one has left. No, she's been here for a few days. Just hiding away in the shadows. Not flirting. Cause that would involve emotions. Which Chloe does not have ( Read more... )

Ryan looks for Chris but doesn't find her.

He does, however, see Chloe.

With a sigh he walks over.

"Hello, Chloe."

Chloe hears the voice, looks up, her jaw mentally drops, and she starts to choke on her water.

"Hello. Ryan."

She breathes in very deep.

"So. How are you?"

"Fine. You?"

You're not trying to fire or kill me. Always a plus.

"I'm...good, actually."

Which was true aside from the fact that he'd rather eat glass than apologize to Chloe first.

"Have you seen Chase around?"

He wasn't sure what answer he wanted to hear.

"No, I think he's trying very hard to avoid everyone. Like I have. Because I'm a moron." She snorts.

That's what you wanted to hear, isn't it you stiff little snob.

"You're not a moron, Chloe," he says wearily.

"I shouldn't have expected you to keep something a secret that I wasn't able to keep a secret. It was unfair to you."

"Thank you Ryan, but I am. I shouldn't have blurted it out like that at the dinner. Completely unprofessional and downright unkind to Audrey. But yes, it was unfair of you. I believed all the rumors. About Jack and Tony's involvement, about you. You died a kind of hero to those of us who believed certain rumors."

"Well, the rumors were better than the truth, I guess," he mutters.

Then, with a sigh, "Chloe, I just came here to apologize for the way I treated you the day you came to see me. I know you were trying to be helpful in you own way and I'm sorry I was so rude to you."

Chloe bites the inside of her cheek, carefully ponders this, and comes to the conclusion that Ryan is either out of his mind or up to something.

"What? You've got to be kidding me. What are you planning?"

He rolls his eyes.

"I'm not planning anything, Chloe. I just wanted to try and clear the air between us."

Chloe tries very hard to buy this.

"Ryan, you realize you can't die again, right?"

_chappy_ March 19 2005, 04:27:57 UTC
"What? Yes, I know that, Chloe. Thank you."

He shakes his head.

Why does Chloe have to make this so difficult?

"I just want to make things a little less tense around here, so I'm apologizing. It's that simple."

"Less tense? Your daughter is here. I would think that would make things a lot more tense."

Oh Hell not again. Nonononono.

"I mean, I think she's here. Could be wrong. Lots of people look like her."

"Yes, Chris is here. I know. I saw her last night. I was looking for her now but saw you and decided to have this conversation before I spoke to her."

"Oh. I didn't, I'm. Shit." Chloe bites her cheek again.

"I'm sorry Ryan. I accept your apology. I just thought maybe you were going to get out and you wanted to screw with me one last time."
