Smiling, Chloe followed the restaurant's host to a nearby table, sliding into a seat and accepting the menu as it was handed to her. When the waiter approached shortly thereafter, she gave the wine list a quick glance before ordering a glass of whatever he might recommend, provided it was white. Shrugging off her coat, Chloe made herself more comfortable as she kept one eye on the door, awaiting Eleanor's arrival. Seeing the other enter the restaurant, she raised a hand, waving her over. "Eleanor!" She called, standing to offer her friend a hug. "Oh my gosh, it's so good to see you! I'm glad you could make it- even you can use some time away from the library! And, I'll go out on a limb and say I'm sure you don't mind some child-free time, too."
See you in 5 :). Chloe texted before slipping her phone back into her front scrub pocket. Turning back to the computer's screen, she finished the clocking out process and headed towards the door, adjusting the strap of the messenger bag across her chest. Stepping outside the clinic, she waved to a couple of clients sitting in their vehicle before moving to lean against hers, anxiously awaiting Fleet's arrival. In no time at all she saw him turning in, and she let out a laugh as she raised her hand to greet him. "You want to drive, or do you want to walk?" She called, making her way over. "I don't care either way, all I know is I'm about to starve to death, so we'd better figure it out quick!"

Chloe Renee Batts was born October 25 in Chicago, IL to parents Phillip and Michelle Batts. As the youngest of three children and the only girl, Chloe grew up both well taken care of and well protected. In Chicago, the Batts family was well known, maintaining their positions in the community both through their professions (Phillip a veterinarian and Michelle a lawyer) as well as through their consistent community involvement. No matter the event, the Batts family was sure to be involved in one way or another. Due largely to that fact, Chloe has always been an incredibly sociable individual, both having and making friends wherever she went.
School was something Chloe always enjoyed, her love of learning fostered by her parents and two older brothers. Academic success was an expectation in the Batts home, and from the time she began school Chloe had access to seemingly endless resources, materials, and tutors. Maintaining her academic focus led Chloe to graduate high school as her class Salutatorian, with a 4.1 GPA and her choice of colleges and universities. Her sociable personality ensured she remained active in several extracurriculars, including but not limited to cheerleading, debate team, science club, and French club.
Despite her eclectic interests and hobbies, Chloe’s passion since childhood has been animals of all species, shapes, and sizes. The daughter of a veterinarian, the Batts children were exposed to animals, as well as their appropriate care, in their early years, something Chloe took to like a fish to water. In her youth, she loved accompanying her father to work, soaking in everything happening around her during each visit. Therefore, it came as no surprise when she began working at the clinic as soon as she was old enough (part-time cleaning kennels). During her senior year of high school, Chloe’s declaration of a major in veterinary nursing came as no shock,, and her family supported her wholeheartedly in making her longtime dream a reality.
Academically, college wasn’t a difficult experience for Chloe. Between the knowledge she possessed from her time in her father’s clinic, as well as her academic prowess, she quickly rose to the top of her class. College was, however, the first time Chloe found herself involved in a real relationship. Meeting her beau had been fate in Chloe’s eyes, and the two quickly fell for each other after only a couple of months of dating. Remaining together after graduating college, the pair became engaged two years into their relationship. Things between them were perfect, and Chloe found herself daydreaming of and planning the perfect wedding. However, three months before the pair were to be married, Chloe caught her beau cheating on her with a co-worker, one of the veterinarians at the clinic he worked for.
Heartbroken and distraught Chloe ended things immediately, moving back in with her family and attempting to pick up the pieces of her now-shattered dream. After three months of wallowing, Chloe made the decision to take charge of her life once again. So, after speaking with her family she packed her things, emptied her bank accounts, and left, heading for anywhere that would take her far away from the only life she’d ever known. After a couple of months of nomadic living, Chloe decided to settle in Riverport, taking an available position at the local veterinary clinic, finding herself a small starter home, and beginning to rebuild her life.
