A/N: Hello my fellow readers. If you're reading this (or about to read this) you're probably a Degrassi obsessed freak like me and maybe you were a little (or a lot) disappointed at the Degrassi movie and swore to yourself you'd never watch Degrassi again. But the minute the first episode of season 10 The Boiling Point came on, you were right there on the couch escaping into the messed up world of Degrassi Community School. And when you saw Eli, the hot new bad boy (does he sort of remind you of Sean? And Clare's Emma. You're sort of seeing it now, right?) who can't say anything without sounding sarcastic and looks extremely fine in his jeans, you immediately forgot all about your pledge to ban Degrassi. And when you saw Clare and Eli on the screen you became addicted to their bantering and their blatantly obvious sexual tension. So now you're spending all your free time reading E-Clare fanfics. Well, here's another one to get you through the day. In this one Eli and Clare and just became a couple (hopefully in the show this day comes very soon!). Enjoy!
Eli is on top of the world and he doesn't care who knows. He's so happy he could burst and when he sees Clare get out of her mother's car, he saunters towards her with a crooked grin, revealing to anyone watching the source of his happiness. He comes up behind her and snakes his arms around her waist.
"Hey Clare-bear," he whispers in her ear. He feels her shudder under his touch and grips her tighter, pressing her whole body against his. Clare gives into him for a moment and breathes in his Eli scent before pulling away. She glances nervously at her mother who still hasn't driven away and now gives Clare a questioning look paired with a frown. Clare really doesn't want to explain Eli to her mother so she turns quickly away, lacing her hand through Eli's and pulls him towards the school.
"Morning," she says, all happy from Eli's touch.
"I missed you," Eli says with a teasing smile and Clare smiles back remembering their online conversation last night. She's completely forgotten about her mother.
"It's been so long," she says.
"Too long," Eli murmurs sweetly and Clare's heart thumps a little louder than usual. She's only recently been introduced to Sweet Eli and she's not sure if she likes the sweet or sarcastic one better; both make her weak in the knees.
They make their way to her locker and she reluctantly lets go of Eli's warm hand to twist her combination. Eli stands dangerously close to her as she rummages through her locker, reminding herself to focus on finding her calculus assignment.
She feels Eli's lips on her neck and she thinks she might die. The trail of kisses she leaves sets her skin on fire.
"Eli," she whispers breathlessly, a smile escaping her lips. "We're at school," she reminds him.
"Are you afraid?" he asks just as breathless as her. He's challenging her, testing her limits and she's letting them because there's something so thrilling about breaking rules with Eli.
She turns around so they're standing in front of each other, their shirts touching. He looks down at her with his emerald green eyes and she looks up at him with her clear blue ones. Eli's heart pounds loudly and he doesn't try to calm it down; she makes him crazy with want without even doing anything. He places his hand on the locker next to hers to steady himself.
He grins at their closeness and without warning Clare hooks her index fingers in his belt loops. She feels bold and school is quickly fading away until it's only the two of them. His breath and he leans down to kiss her, not caring at all that the people around them could be watching.
"Clare," a voice comes from behind them, making Clare jump slightly and turn a deep shade of red. Eli's lips are dying to kiss Clare's and they're so close but he knows he's going to have to wait. Slowly, he looks up to see who's interrupting them.
Clare's ex, K.C. Eli sighs and steps away from away from Clare. K.C' face is in shock and Eli smirks, knowing it's because Clare would have never engaged in such blatant PDA with him.
"Um," K.C seems to have forgotten what he wanted. All he can do is stare at Clare. Eli doesn't like this and he leans against her protectively, putting his arm around her shoulders.
"Do you want something?" he asks.
"Did you get the homework assignment for computer class?" K.C asks. He's pulls himself together a little and smiles at Clare.
"Yeah, did you need help?" Even after K.C broke up with her for Jenna and her transformation into the new confident Clare, she can't help being nice.
"That would be great. Maybe at lunch?" he asks. He completely ignores Eli.
"Oh um," Clare's gone back to getting things out of her locker but now she looks from K.C to Eli. Eli shrugs trying to show her he's not jealous, but his eyes give him away.
"I was actually going to have lunch with Eli," Clare says. "But why don't you stop by with a laptop and I'll help you install the program." She really doesn't mind helping K.C; he was last year, this year Eli's the only one on her mind. It actually scares her how hard she's falling for him.
"Great, thanks," K.C says and with a last smile at Clare, walks away. Eli's finally alone with Clare again. She closes her locker and looks up at Eli, trying to read his expression, but his face is purposely blank.
"I don't like him," he says simply. Clare pulls him into a hug and he wraps his arms tightly around her, breathing in her shampoo. The bell rings.
"I'll see you later?" Clare pulls away. Eli nods.
