Clare's POV

I was walking with Eli to my locker when I realized he wasn't next to me anymore. I tried to find him but I couldn't so I continued to my locker where I found the person I least expected to be sitting here.

I walked up to him and say "hey Drew"

He looked completely shocked I said hey to him but he quickly said "hi Clare can you help me with something really important?"

"Sure Drew what's up?" was all I said before he started rambling on about why he needed my help.

"My mom hates Alli and wants me to break up with her but the problem is I really like Alli but on the other hand I don't my mom mad at me because I didn't listen to her. Do you have any advice?"

I didn't really know what to say so I quickly thought about it and said "Drew you should talk to Alli or Adam about this because I honestly don't know how to help you with this except for talking to Alli with you to make sure she doesn't flip."

Drew didn't really like it when he had to confront people about things but he sighed and said okay and went off to find Alli to tell her why he can't go to 'the Dot' with her today.

Right after Drew left I was in my locker thinking about what happened to Eli this morning, but before I could remember if he told me about going to see someone before school, someone covered my eyes with their hands.

I knew it wasn't Eli because their sleeves were blue and gold, two colors I've never seen Eli wear in my life. I quickly turned around to see none other than K.C. standing there smiling like he did in freshman year.

The first thing he said was " Hey Clare, can we talk after school at 'the Dot'?"

I really didn't want to go but I decided it would be rude not to go I agreed to go talk with him after school. So I grabbed my math book and headed to math.

After math Clare had English

I sat down and waited for Mrs. Dawes to come in. To my surprise she wasn't here today but once the sub introduced himself Eli walked in 3 minutes late. He gave the teacher a note and sat down next to Clare.

"Hey Eli what happened to you this morning?" (Clare)

"Oh I needed to talk to Mr. Simpson about something." (Eli)

"Why didn't you just tell me instead of leaving me alone and confused."(Clare)

"I didn't know my best friend needed to know everything about me." (Eli)

"Okay well I can't hang after school today anymore."(Clare)

(Eli was very mad that Clare canceled on him just because he ditched her this morning)"why are you canceling because I forgot to tell you I had a meeting?"(Eli)

"um well first of all that's not why I can't hang, second of all I don't really care that you ditched me because I had a very nice conversation with drew this morning and a very aquard one with K.C."

"what you talked to K.C. I thought you were over him, and what did Drew want he never talks to you" (Eli)

"Ya I talked to him, that doesn't mean he's getting a second chance, and why do you care anyway? Oh and Drew just needed my advice." (Clare)

"I care because you're my best friend, and advice about what?" (Eli)

"um okay…, and by the way if it's any of your business he needed Ali advice"

"why would he need Ali advice, last time I checked he was dating her"

"it was more of ' How do I tell Alli my mother hates her guts' advice"

"what did you tell him?"

"I told him to ask Adam, well I got to go get ready for my 'meeting' with K.C. tonight"

"wait, your bailing on my your best friend for your EX?"

"um Ya bye"

Eli didn't even have enough time to say bye, who knew that she was so naïve to believe him again.
