It's like he doesn't hear a word I say
His mind is somewhere far away
And I don't know how to get there
"You are acting childish, Eli." I snapped. "Why can't you just drop this entire thing with Fitz? The more you retaliate the worse it gets." Eli just shook his head.
"Don't ignore me. I can't even comprehend why you are letting everything go as far as you have! You need to grow up and be the bigger person." With that I grabbed her books and started walking away. Why can't he ever just listen to me?
It's like
(She's way too serious)
All he wants is to chill out
(She's always in a rush)
He makes me wanna pull all my hair out
(And interrupting)
Like he doesn't even care
(Like she doesn't even care)
I heard Eli running behind me. He grabbed my arm lightly to spinning me around.
"You need to calm down Blue Eyes. I have this handled. Trust me." He looked down into my eyes trying to get me to understand, but I couldn't.
"Elijah! Don't even put this on me by saying I don't trust you!" She screeched at him.
"Chill out," He relented putting his hands up in defeat. He was driving me mad!
"Don't," I warned him. "Why don't you get that I care? That I am trying to make sure this doesn't escalate into something where you get hurt?" I was hurt that he couldn't see that. That he didn't seem to care that I was worried.
You,
Me
We're face to face
But we don't see eye to eye
Like fire and rain
(Like fire and rain)
You can drive me insane
(You candrive meinsane)
But I can't stay mad at you for anything
"I'm sorry Clare," Eli looked down at me. His green eyes keeping my blue ones entranced. "I just don't want him to think that he has won."
"So what if he thinks that? As long as he leaves you and Adam alone, it doesn't matter." I whispered.
"It does matter, Clare. You just wouldn't get it." He smirked a little and I smiled, forgetting for a moment that I was angry with him.
"So," He said after a moment of us staring at each other. "Are we okay?"
We're Venus and Mars
(We're Venus and Mars)
We're like different stars
(Like different stars)
But you're the harmony to every song I sing
And I wouldn't change a thing
"Yeah, I think we're good." I smiled at him. He slowly leaned down and kissed me briefly on the lips.
"Good, 'cause I was thinking maybe you could go to the dance with me." He asked quietly.
"Is Elijah Goldsworthy nervous? Around little Saint Clare?" I asked sarcastically. He rolled his eyes and I reached up and gave him another kiss.
"I'm taking that as a yes." With that he walked off leaving me in the middle of the hall smiling like an idiot.
She's always trying to save the day
Just wanna let my music play
She's all or nothing
But my feelings never change
"Well if it isn't Clare-Bear," I heard Fitz come up behind me.
"What do you want Fitz?" I asked tiredly, I was getting Eli and myself tickets for the dance and really didn't want to deal with Fitz.
"A date for the dance," he smiled down at me.
"That's great! Why don't you go find one?" I snapped a little annoyed he was holding me up.
"I want to go with you."
"I am going with E…"
"I'll stop attacking him and his friend if you go with me." He interrupted me. I thought for a moment than slowly nodded my head yes before walking away.
(Why does he try to read my mind?)
I try to read her mind
(It's not good to psychoanalyze)
She tries to pick a fight
To get attention
That's what all of my friends say
(That'swhat all of my friends say)
"What's going on Blue Eyes?" Eli asked a little worriedly when I came up to him and Morty after school. "Did Fitz bother you? Is it you're parents again?"
"Stop asking questions…Let me talk." I was annoyed that he thought he could figure out what had me upset. I had only met him a little while ago, how well did he think he knew me?
"I can't go to the dance with you tonight…" I trailed off and he was silent, looking at me confusedly. "I sort of told Fitz I would go with him."
"Why the hell would you do that?" He screamed angrily.
"Because it is the only way to stop all of this fighting!" I yelled back quickly.
You,
Me
We're face to face
But we don't see eye to eye
"Don't you get that he is dangerous Clare?" Eli asked more quietly this time, but just as angry as before.
"We are going to be at the school," I explained. "In a crowded place, nothing will happen Eli."
"How do you know that Clare?" He shook his head clearly upset. I slowly walked toward him and hugged him.
Like fire and rain

"I'll be careful, Eli." I whispered into his neck and he hugged me tighter sighing in defeat.
"I just don't want you hurt…I don't want you to get involved."
"Well to the first I won't…and as for getting involved, well Adam and you are my best friends. You are also a best friend and more so did you really think this feud wouldn't affect me?"
"I guess you're right," He kissed the top of my head gently before letting me go slightly to look into my eyes. "But I will be there tonight in case you need me." I smiled at him and we kissed before I heard Ali calling me saying we needed to get ready.

"He is absolutely perfect Ali," I explained as she was doing my hair. "I know we are like polar opposites, but everything always seems so much better when I'm with him. He knows just how to annoy me and he makes me angry sometimes, but I wouldn't change any of it."
"That's fantastic Clare-bear," She said excitedly then looked at her watch. "We need to get going though." I nodded and we walked off to the dance.
The gym looked fantastic like a real casino in Vegas. I looked around, but caught no sign of Fitz, but I saw Eli standing in a corner so I went up to him.
When I'm yes, she's no
When I hold on, he just lets go
"Would you like to dance?" Eli held out his hand to me. I looked around for Fitz. "Come on Blue Eyes, he isn't here yet…if we're lucky he won't come at all…but you need to give me at least one dance."
"Okay," I said nervously and he led me onto the dance floor as a slow song began to play. I wrapped my hands around his neck while his went around my waist and he kept me close. We swayed to the music quietly joking around. Suddenly I felt him let go of me, I looked up questioningly, but he just walked away.
"Trying to get out of our date?" Fitz asked. I shook my head no then he pulled me towards him for a dance. I wish Eli never let go of me, I wish Fitz never came.
We're perfectly imperfect
But I wouldn't change a thing, no
As the song slowed Fitz started pulling me out of the room into the hallway. He leaned me up against a locker and tried to kiss me.
"I don't want to kiss you Fitz," I said nervously trying to push him away.
"You don't want your emo boyfriend getting hurt do you?" He sneered at me and tried to kiss me again, but I slipped out from under him.
"I agreed to come here with you, not to kiss you!" The thought of kissing anyone, but Eli disgusted me.
"Well you're boyfriend is going to pay for your mistakes." He sneered and I saw a knife in his pocket. I quickly ran back to the gym in search of Eli.

"Ali, where is Eli?" I questioned nervously.
"I don't know Clare, all I know is that I was cheated on." She said with tears forming in her eyes.
"Listen, Ali this is really important. I need you to tell Mr. Simpson that Fitz has a knife. I think he is going to hurt Eli!" I said hurriedly. Ali's eyes widened and she nodded before rushing off to Mr. Simpson while I ran to search for Eli.

"Eli!" I screamed when I saw him in an abandoned classroom. "We have to go Fitz has a knife!"
"Calm down Clare…Tell me what's going on." He said and I realized how fast I was talking and he probably couldn't understand me.
"Fitz took me out in the hallway and tried to kiss me," I saw Eli starting to protest but I quickly put my hand over his mouth. "I wouldn't and he said that he was going to make you pay and I saw him starting to pull a knife out of his pocket. I went looking for you and found Ali who went to tell Mr. Simpson and now hear I am."
"Okay," He nodded to me. He grabbed my hand and we walked out of the classroom only to see a large figure turn the corner.

"Nice. The emo kid and the slutty Christian chick." Fitz smirked walking forward. Eli slowly brought us back pushing me slightly behind him. Fitz kept coming closer holding the knife out and taunting us, but I was too nervous to understand a word.
"Get away from me," I heard Eli mutter quietly shoving me across the hall. I stood there stunned. I couldn't move. I saw Fitz bring the knife up ready to strike and I started to scream.
"Freeze!" Another voice entered the scene. I saw Fitz quickly drop the knife and the police officer run over to cuff him. I ran over to Eli who was standing in the corner.

"Eli," I whispered. "Are you okay?" Tears were falling freely from my eyes. He pulled me into a hug and I cried into him.
"Everything is okay Blue Eyes, I promise it will never happen again." He lifted my chin and kissed me on the lips passionately. Even with everything was perfect when I was in his arms.
"I love you," He whispered between our kiss.
"I love you too." I definitely wouldn't change a thing!
