The Exception to the Rules

Part 9:  Allen, Bart Allen

“Dayum, Ollie!” Bart crowed, jumping up from the couch and rounding the piece of furniture as Oliver entered the living room, dressed in a sharply cut, black tuxedo.

“Now that’s what I’m talking about!” The younger man enthused.  “Can you hook me up with one of those?”

I knew it!!!! OMG! I knew it!!! I was reading the description of the dress and in my mind a picture of Penelope Cruz in that gorgeous dress just came up!! And meanwhile I read the rest of the chapter I was thinking that I needed to find a picture of it and show it to you!!! OMG!! LOL!!

I love that dress, I really do, even if it's pink ( a colour I usually dislike) and even if Penelope is wearing it (I don't like Pe, sorry. I'm from Spain like her but that doesn't mean that I have to like her, does it?)

Great chapter, by the way^^ I'm so loving all the Chloe/Oliver interactions, they are so funny, smart and witty together^^

Haha! You really got it right off?? That's awesome! Haha! I did think of some other dresses that I personally like more (like you, I'm not much of a pink lady and I can take or leave Miss Cruz...), but I started imagining Chloe trying to get around in that big ol' skirt with the feathers flying off of it and was just sold.

Thanks so much for commenting and I'm so glad you liked the chapter... and dress choice! Haha!

By the way, I am SO jealous that you're from Spain... I got to go to Madrid and Malaga two years ago and fell absolutely in love with both places! So beautiful!

This was such a fun chapter to read. I like to see Chloe so insecure. I'm dying to know what's going to happen at the party.

So glad you included pics too. That dress is just WOW! Good choice!

[novadelphine]

Though she's hardly insecure, I kinda liked getting Chloe out of her comfort zone. I seemed to me like that would be a reasonable reaction for her character. Really glad you liked that!

Isn't the dress nuts?? Man, to be rich and famous... if only for the clothes! Haha!

Thanks for writing! It's really appreciated!

"“She’s still primping,” Victor supplied, laughing at Bart’s sullen disposition. “And I strongly advise against going in there to try and hurry her up. AC gave her a time check half-an-hour ago and got a shoe thrown at him for his troubles.”

“He made fun of the hot rollers in her hair,” Bart tattled with a grin, the memory of Chloe’s fury helping him through his disappointment over his refused request for a tux.

“She looked hilarious,” AC offered by way of explanation. “The things women do to themselves…”

ROTFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!! This was an awesome chapter! The way you wrote the guys and Chloe! Brilliance pure brilliance!!! You are doing a wonderful job with the Chlollie interaction!!!! Keep up the good work and please hurry with the next update! LOL

[novadelphine]

Yay! I'm so glad you liked! With every chapter, I'm loving the JL boys more and more. A reader on the Chlollie board mentioned how she thinks of the boys as Peter Pan and the lost boys, and ever since then, that's been stuck in my head. They may be heroes, but they're still just a bunch of fun guys.

Thanks so, so much for commenting and believe you me, I'm working away on the next part!

[novadelphine]

The gala's finally coming up... bout time I suppose. Haha!

Thanks so much for commenting!

“Remember Chloelicious,” Bart piped up. “If 007 there starts getting handsy again, no means no!”

Stepping into the elevator and spinning to face the young man, Chloe shot Bart a smile and Oliver leaned out to pin him with a glare.

“That’s a warning for your dates, little man,” he mocked. “Not mine.”

OMG! This is AWESOME!!!! GUH! I sooo love this story. It's absolutely fabuluous,, I have mentioned that right? Keep it up. The chemistry with Chlollie is awesome, I can't wait to read more.....

[novadelphine]

Haha! Another "GUH"!! I love it! So glad you liked the chapter and as always, thanks so much for taking the time to write. Really appreciate it!
