What should have been?
I don't own Degrassi.
As silly as it may seem that kiss, that single passionate kiss, shared to seal their new chance meant more to her than anything material that he could have ever given her. They were the ideal couple. Clare Edwards and Elijah "Eli" Goldsworthy, a year set them apart in age, but in everything else they were equals. They planned their lives together, but a cruel twist in faith causes them to have very different lives today. Now four years later, at a very elegant awards ceremony Eli, a renowned author just 6 years after graduating from Degrassi meets a little boy who can very well be his mini me with the sole exception that he has these bright blue eyes that are so familiar and joyous to him but felt so hurtful at the same time. Little did he know that another pair of blue eyes, identical to the ones that he was seeing in this little boy, was shocked to see him after four long years.
She was pale, not her regular alabaster skin tone, but white like if she had seen a ghost. In fact she had was seeing a ghost, a ghost from her past was right in front of her talking to her son. He was him. That boy that she was in love with since he ran over her glasses, that same boy she laid with under that stars in a hammock wishing for a happy future, the boy that fought so hard to be with her, the same boy who broke her heart that faithful august day four almost five years, was standing a mere fifteen feet away from her talking to her whole world, her son Matthew. She knew that her secret was going to come out. How could it not. How could he not know that he was talking to his own son. The only other thing she thought about was, what could of happen if she had told him the truth all those years ago, would these past four years be different. Then that thought left her mind immediately after knowing that he stopped loving her and she didn't want to tie him down with a child that's why she never told him. She did the right thing. "I did the right thing he didn't love me anymore", was all that she can think of to justify this situation in front of her, this situation that she hoped never would happen but knew one day would. Then one little thought floated to her mind, that same thought that inevitably made her way to her mind at night as well as her dreams. "What should have been my life with Eli and Matthew?" "What should have been?"
Next chapter will have their P.O.V. And will have some of their past revealed. Bear with me it my first story ever. I'll try to update soon .
