Disclaimer: I am not rich enough to own such an amazing show, therefore, Degrassi is not mine. But, as mentioned in Alibis, Maureen is my character, as well as Aiden. Don't take my characters!

A/N: Well, we have come a long way. Here is the sequel to my amazing creation, Alibis. If you haven't read the story, then I suggest you go back and read it, because when you start reading this story, you will not get a single thing about this story. I know most of you have read it! And, I just hope I please most of you! I hope the sequel is just as good as Alibis. I will be really disappointed if this story didn't come out as good as Alibis.

Now that I'm rambling, I might as well tell the warnings for this story.

Warnings: There will not be that much horror in this story, it will be more drama filled, but there will be some intense scenes. I don't want to tell you all of them because it will only spoil, and I don't need that to happen. There is romance of course; I can't just leave it out. Some of the anorexia and eating disorders will return in here, so be prepared for that. As well as cutting – if you don't read this warning, then it's your loss. I really don't want to hear complaints.

There will be alternating POV's in this chapter!

Well… that's all I really wanted to say. So, here you are. Enjoy the first chapter of "A Prophecy".

A Prophecy

Summary: Sequel to Alibis; the summer is finally gone, and Elijah found the change he so desperately wanted within his blue eyed beauty. Clare's dark past is slowly coming to an end, now that she is able to live free of abuse. Unfortunately, nothing ends happily.

Chapter 1

Eli's POV

They say that school is a big impact on your life. Well, one of the biggest impacts of your life. I've been going to school for a long time now, since I was five years old and there was nothing about it that impacted my life. It was just eight hours of your time that was wasted. Eight hours of writing, studying, and going to lunch, P.E, and tests – nothing is different, nothing changes.

But, now that things are different with me. My opinion on school has changed. I look forward to getting up early, to taking a twenty minute shower, to get out and get dressed in my so called ridiculous clothing, fix my hair, and to go downstairs to eat breakfast with my family. So, here I am standing in the middle of my room, pulling on those bright green skinny jeans I bought a few weeks ago. I put a belt on, holding my pants up and then pulled my black and purple Escape the Fate shirt over my head.

I pulled my shoes on and quickly passed a comb through my hair, and then walked out of my room, carrying my bag over my shoulder. I could smell breakfast and just as I suspected, mom was in the kitchen, flipping pancakes while dad was sitting at the kitchen table, drinking a coffee.

I sat down and grabbed a plate.

Mom stacked some pancakes on my plate, and I drowned it with syrup before taking a huge bite from it.

"Hungry?" Mom asked, giggly slightly.

"Just a little." I responded with a full mouth.

"Have you called Clare yet? You are taking her to school right?" Mom asked.

"Yeah, I talked to her last night. I'm going to get her in a little while. She said she'll call me when she's ready." I answered.

Mom nodded and she ruffled my hair while I continued to eat. I desperately wanted to see Clare, since this was her first day of school, I was actually more anxious for her, than for myself. She's a sophomore this year, as well as Adam, while I'm a junior, of course. Sophomore year is pretty intense, especially at Degrassi. I know, I shouldn't say that because it varies differently for people, but I always thought it to be a challenging year, and I mean that because of the work, not because of what happened.

I subconsciously sighed and pushed my food away after I finished eating. And then I got up to go brush my teeth and wait for Clare's call.

…

Clare's POV

"Clare are you almost ready!" I heard my mom shout.

"Yes!" I responded as I quickly pulled the black long sleeved shirt I picked out to wear today over my head. I turned to the mirror I had in my room, and fixed my plaid purple skinny jeans that Eli had bought for me two days before school started. He insisted I get them because he said and I quote, "that I would look hot with them on." I rolled my eyes at how much of a guy Eli could be.

Once I was finished getting dressed, I put a small amount of make-up on and made sure my hair looked decent, since I had spent all morning flat ironing it. I slipped on my black low top converse and grabbed my cell phone, since I promised Eli I would call him when I was finished getting ready. When I walked into the kitchen, I found my mother in the kitchen with Darcy.

"Mom, Eli is going to be taking me to school, you don't have to." I said.

"Okay," She smiled, "Tell him I said hi."

I nodded and when I walked out the front door, I quickly dialed Eli's number.

"Hey." He said.

"Hey, I'm ready." I responded.

"Okay, I'll see you in a minute, I love you."

I smiled. Hearing Eli tell me he loves me is something I could never get over. He was such an affectionate person; I don't understand how people could hate him.

"I love you too." I responded.

The line went dead and before I knew it, Eli was walking out the front door of his house, in his lime green skinny jeans. I giggled and waved at him. He held up his hand and halted me as I began walking to him. Eli walked around the house and I heard his car being turned on, along with the screaming music blasting through the speakers. He drove out of the driveway and pulled up in front of my house. I rolled my eyes and smiled as he climbed out of the driver's side of his car and jogged around to open the door for me.

I walked casually to him and kissed him before I said, "Mom says hi." I climbed into the hearse when he simply nodded. He closed the door, and walked around to climb into the driver's side of his car. Soon enough, we were headed to my new school. To say I was nervous would be a huge understatement; I was scared.

"Eli." I whispered.

"Yeah?" He asked.

"Do you think I'm going to be liked at this school?" I asked.

Eli laughed a short laugh, and wrapped his arm around my shoulders. "You'll be fine." He simply said. I smiled softly and leaned my head on his shoulder. We soon arrived at the busy parking lot. I don't understand why so many people would be here so early, it's just the first day of school. I sighed and rolled my eyes. Eli pulled into the parking lot, and he turned off the old vintage hearse once he parked away from the commotion. I remained seated in Morty though.

I couldn't even move. Eli turned my face to him and he told me that it will be okay. I smiled weakly at him and leaned over to kiss his cheek.

"Are you ready?" He asked.

"In theory?" I giggled nervously.

Eli climbed out of the hearse and I followed after him, crawling out through the door after Eli. He shut it and I leaned against the hearse, watching all the new faces that I will soon come to grow accustomed to in the next few months. I sighed shakily and took Eli's hand in mine. Eli interlaced our fingers and he leaned forward and pressed his body against mine as he leaned down to kiss me. I was hesitant at first, and my cheeks burned when I heard people whistling and cat calling the second Eli crushed his lips over mine.

Eli cupped my face with his free hand and slicked his tongue between my lips. What a great way to start school. I smiled and kissed him back. Eli's kisses always seemed to calm my nerves. I don't know why or how, but they always did. His kisses were never forced or sloppy; rather they were sweet and soft.

When we pulled away he placed one last kiss on my forehead.

"Oh look," Eli and I shot a glance at the stranger and his group of friends trailing behind him. They were a bunch of jocks, "It looks like the emo kid found another girlfriend. I wonder if we'll get a sex tape." The group behind him laughed derisively and I had to grab hold of Eli's arm and stop him from pouncing on them.

"Eli, calm down. Just ignore them." I placed my hand on his cheek and turned his face to me. His face was a little red and I got up on my tip toes to kiss him. Eli sighed shakily and he wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

"Come on, we have to get our schedules and locker numbers and all that shit." He said calmly.

I nodded and wrapped my arm around his waist. We walked up to the school and for some reason my heart rate increased into erratic beating. Eli could tell how I suddenly tensed up and before we walked up the steps of the school, he stood before me; since he was standing on the first step, this made him much taller than me than he already is. Eli looked down at me and said, "Don't be so tense Clare, you'll be fine, I promise." I smiled up at him and nodded curtly. My arms linked around his slender waist and I gave him a long hug. Eli returned it; his arms wrapped around my head.

…

…

"I wonder where Adam is." I said.

"He's probably home sleeping. He's usually not here on the first day of school." Eli responded as we slowly walked forward, the line to the front desk shortening as we waited to get our schedules.

"Oh." I stated.

Eli had his arms wrapped around me from behind, and I had my head leaning back against his shoulder. We were moving slowly up to the front desk, but we were getting there nonetheless. I sighed and relaxed against my boyfriend. He placed his chin on my shoulder and brushed his cheek against mine. I smiled and craned my neck to kiss his cheek. Eli smiled a little. His smile is so cute.

"Next."

I stepped forward and smiled at the lady behind the desk.

"Your name please." She stated. I smiled nervously. This woman looked like she didn't want to be here right now.

"Clare Edwards." I responded.

She whispered my name a few times as she searched through the stacks of pale yellow papers. After searching for a good five minutes, she pulled my schedule out, and handed it to me. I smiled and took the paper from her hand and I stepped to the side, and leaned against the wall as I waited for Eli.

I took this chance to glance around the school. The hallways were full, and a lot of cliques were walking around and standing here and there. When I looked towards my right, I saw two people I hoped I wouldn't bump into on the first day of school, Jenna. As if she could hear my thoughts, our eyes locked. I blushed and turned away. Eli soon caught my attention and I looked up at him.

"Let me see your schedule." I said.

Eli handed me the paper and he leaned against the wall on the other side of me. I held my paper up next to his and squealed in delight.

"What?" He asked.

"We have lunch together and English and Art with Ms. Dawes! And our lockers are close to each other!" I smiled up at him.

Eli looked down at our schedules as if he didn't believe me and from the corner of my eye, I saw Eli's lips curl up into a smile. He took his schedule and scanned over it first before folding it into his back pocket.

"So Eli, um are you still up for my movie night?" I asked.

"Yes of course, did you call Alli and tell her?" Eli wrapped his arm around me as we walked through the crowd of people. I nodded and moved my arm around his waist. We chatted for a few minutes before we stopped and found our lockers. I wanted to get to class quick, seeing as the hallways were soon becoming a little empty.

"Eli do you know where Mr. Purino's class is?" I asked.

"Yeah, I'll walk you to it." He said. I nodded and I followed him to the classroom. When he came to a complete stop, I figured we arrive. Eli turned around to face me and he pointed to the room.

"Here we are. I'll see you after class." He said.

I nodded and hugged him tight, he returned the hug, and kissed the top of my head, and then my lips. I watched him walk around me and then disappear into the sea of people. I sighed shakily and walked into the classroom. It was a little full, a few empty desks were scattered around the room. I quickly took the one that was across the room in the corner. I settled myself in the desk and glanced down at it.

There were a lot of scratches and carved words on this desk. A lot of it looked like Eli's handwriting, and I began to wonder if I was sitting in the desk he normally sat in when he was a sophomore. The thought alone made me a little nervous, because I could just practically hear all the things people are going to say to me about Eli, since half the school had already seen us together.

Drama High, here I come. I sighed and closed my eyes, pretending to be invisible. I always hated being the new kid.

I can easily feel the eyes on me, and I know people are whispering about me already. I slid down in my chair, and tugged on the long sleeves of my shirt. I saw a glimpse of my ugly scars and sighed shakily. I quickly pulled my sleeve back up, not wanting to attract attention from anybody. The door to the classroom was slammed shut, and everybody quickly scattered to their seats.

"Good morning class, as you may have heard, my name is Mr. Purino. Nice to meet you, I'm going to hand out your forms so you can take them home to your parents for them to sign. They are to be returned tomorrow, no exceptions." He announced.

He started to call out people's names and I waited patiently for him to call mine.

"Clare Edwards." Mr. Purino called.

I got up and fixed my shirt, the second I started walking down the aisle, people started whispering.

"Why is she wearing long sleeves? It's the summer."

"I heard she's dating that Eli kid, I wonder if she's found out about his suicidal moments."

"She's dating Eli?"

"Yeah, they were making out in front of the school."

"She's a cutter too, you can tell."

I grabbed the envelope that Mr. Purino had and quickly walked back to my seat. Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, someone had tripped me and I stumbled forward, but quickly caught myself before I could fall.

"Oops." Some stranger said as I turned around to look at her.

The girls around her giggled and I rolled my eyes.

"So immature." I muttered.

I sat down in my chair and pulled my phone out of my pocket and quickly sent Eli a text. When I was satisfied with how it looked, I placed my phone on my desk and leaned my head against my hand. Today was going to be a long day, I just hope I can make it.

Eli, I already hate this school… make my day better tonight? :) I love you so much
—Clare

End of Chapter 1

I am going to try my best and NOT make this story into a cliche high school story. This story WILL be very intense as Alibis was, only everything starts happening later. It will jump up on you will.

So, I know it's been a long time that I said I was going to post, so tell me what you think! I hope this story is going to be a big a hit like Alibis was :) It'll be really great, I hope it will be.
