Hey guys so this is my first fan fiction, so please bare with me! I'm always up for advice and what not. So please don't be afraid to review or inbox me!

I don't own Degrassi, if I did Eclare would be back together in a heartbeat!

Clare's POV

"Now tell me why do we make an oh so perfect match, as you say?" I grinned at him when I asked the question. I gripped his black Degrassi cardigan with my hands to pull him closer . We've been having this argument now for a couple days and I wasn't exactly going to make Eli get an easy way out of it, an apology is not simply going to work this time. "Well, we share the same taste in music" he started off "Mhm" I said leaning in closer "We both make each other happy" he continued, I nodded "And...?" I waited for him to finish "We both understand each other" he whispered. I brushed my lips softly on his "Okay, you're forgiven although your reasons aren't quite good enough and not what I was expecting. I can live with it" I said smirking.

As I was about to walk out of Dawe's classroom, Eli grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. "What is it?" I asked turning around.

"You still owe me tonight" he said "For what?" I chuckled "Our date? Remember?" I pretended to forget and giggled. "No Eli, I don't. Remember we've been fighting these few days? I completely forgot about our date you've planned since last week" I grinned "Well now that I reminded you, are you still up for it? Please tell me you are" he pleaded, I looked into his green eyes "Possibly" I said "Blue eyes, please. You don't understand how lonely I've felt for the past few days. I haven't been able to hug or kiss you cause of this" he said sadly. I sighed and nodded "Okay, fine. I'll admit I have miss my dose of Eli for the past few days" he smirked at me remark and kissed my forehead.

We both arrived in front of my car "Can't believe my Clare bear has a car and is licensed. It feels nice to not be chauffeuring someone else around" I shot him a glare "I'm only doing this because you crashed Morty. Besides, I feel the need to pay you back with all the rides you've given me" I said smiling, he chuckled "Fair enough".

He got into the passenger side and as soon as he sat down I handed him a pill, he sighed "Look, I know how much you hate taking your medicine but you have to" I said concerned, he rolled his eyes and dry swallowed it "I don't understand how you could do that" I almost gagged. I hated pills and I hated when Eli just took it down without water.

He shrugged "I never got a chance to apologize to you, blue eyes" he said while tapping his fingers on the dashboard.

"For what?" I asked him, hoping to get a full on detailed answer from him. He has been keeping his answers so short lately after what happened that one night.

"I am so sorry that I was protective of you, Clare bear. It's just… I don't know." I cut him off "Hey, don't worry about it. The past is the past and now what matters is that you got help and you seem to be improving a lot now. I'm happy to see that" I stroked his hand "Thank you for sticking by my side. Even after I crashed Morty for you, now that I think about it, it wasn't really romantic" he chuckled softly to himself and continued talking, "It's really nice to know that you're still with me even though I'm.. you know, bipolar. But I have to ask, Why did you decide to stay with me?" he finished.

I smiled "Remember, I made a promise with you? I promised I wouldn't leave you and I would never give up on you. As soon as I saw you in the hospital bed, I knew you needed help and I knew it would've just made it worse if I just left you like that" I said softly "We have to deal with the ups and downs and this just happened to be a downfall of our relationship but we're building from it! We're doing a lot better than we were before the accident" I grabbed both of his hands and kissed it "I love you, Eli. I really do and that's why I stayed with you in the hospital".

He smiled "Love you too blue eyes"

"I'm still keeping my promise with you. I'll still be here with you at the end of each day, you can count on that. No one and nothing will ever get between us, okay?" I said smiling at him.

He nodded and he leaned in and kissed me.

Eli's POV

I don't even know if I even deserved her especially all the things I did to her, was she going to easily forgive me like that? What a silly question because if she did decide to leave me in that hospital bed alone, I think I would've been messed up right now. It was kind of weird to feel like this, I felt more calm and happier, I guess you could say. Not saying I was never happy before because I was but I was always truly happy when I was around her. I didn't want to mess this up, although she did keep a promise to me that she was going to leave me, I feel like she still has that power to walk out of my life any second.

I know she wouldn't do that do, especially to me. I mean I am doing a lot better now, right? But I can't help but think about what she said to me when we were at the bench... how I was "suffocating" her. I gulped. She has been with me every step of the way though, Bullfrog made her in charge of giving me my anxiety pills and she's doing a good job on that. I think he only made her in charge on giving me the pills because he knows that she would be responsible enough to remember when to give them. She was an amazing girlfriend, no, she is an amazing girlfriend.

I just really hope things look up for us in the future.

I snapped out of my thoughts when I felt my phone vibrate seeing a text message from Clare

You up for a simple dinner and movie date tonight?

Depends, your treat, Clare?

Ah, whatever happened to my Eli who acted like such a gentleman before? :( Okay, fair and square, we'll go dutch, yes?

I can deal with that

Great. See you at 6!

I smiled to myself and decided to take a quick nap before our date. I guess things between us have improved a lot, I'm not complaining though. It was nice to have a normal conversation with her again without feeling so distant from each other.

Clare's POV

We arrived at the Dot and we walked in hand and hand. "I've missed you" he said putting his hand on top of mine "We've established this already, haven't we?" I smirked "Yes, but I just wanted to tell you again" I rolled my eyes "Well I've missed you a lot too. Now can we please stop telling each other how much we've missed each other? It was only a few days we haven't talked to each other!" I laughed at him, he sighed "You don't understand though. I was completely bored this entire week since I had no one to come over to my house, no one to bug during English, you get the point" he replied.

I chuckled and nodded "Yes. Okay. Well we still have to decide what movie we're going to see! So let's just make this quick and easy! The Hunger Games!" I squealed, Eli gave me an annoyed look "Please?" I begged "Please with a cherry on top? I've read all three books and I can't wait to see it anymore" he sighed "Okay!" he said finally giving in. I giggled "Thank you! Thank you!" I gave him a tight hug and kissed him. I knew he didn't want to see the Hunger Games but I honestly believe that he thinks it's going to be another Twilight like movie but I have a feeling that he'll actually enjoy this movie.

The check came for our food and I went through my purse finding my wallet. I felt a hand on my wrist "Don't worry. I got it" Eli said with his famous lopsided smirk "But I thou-" he cut me off "I was joking when I said your treat. I would never let my girl pay for something on our dates" I rolled my eyes "Okay fine" I said.

He kissed my hand before paying the check "Keep the change" he told the waiter "Thanks man!" the waiter replied back.

I smiled at him and grabbed his hand while we made way to my car to go to the movies.

I actually liked my time with Eli now, ever since he went to see his therapist and he has been taking his pills, he's been a lot better. I wanted to see what the future held for us but I guess only time will tell.

I promise it'll pick up in a few chapters! Please review! Thank you for reading!
