Hoping. Chloe can’t stop the grin that spreads on her face at those words. The confirmation that she’d really wanted her to say yes, that Ashe wanted Chloe on her team, brought her too much joy and excitement for her to actually keep it contained. She would be embarrassed for it later, maybe, but right now, she feels like a kid who just got told she was going to get to emulate her hero.
Following her towards her desk, she bit her lip at the mention of McCree, glancing to the side as she thought that over. Keeping secrets was something she was used to, even from people she cared about, but she knew McCree had a tendency to be around her at her weakest moments, especially ones involving alcohol, and she can’t help but wonder if she’ll be dumb enough to let it slip after too many shots. She likes to think she won’t, though, and so she nods. It shouldn’t be too hard.
“Okay.” To both. Her day job and not making a big deal of anything she’d ask her to do. “I kinda like teaching anyway.” It wasn’t a lie. She hated the hours, but she enjoyed the kids, and getting to see people express themselves. It made her feel like she was actually helping someone.
