Hey guys! So this is my first FanFiction and i know this first chapter is a tad bit pointless. Sorry for that. Its like the introduction to Eli's character in my story. I dont normally watch Degrassi, but i really got into Elijah's character and Clares personality. And i name my chapters after songs and stuff. This story is calles "I can see your tracks" by Laura Viers. its a good song guys. so bye. and reviews arent really needed, but i would like at least one to know if someone is readingmy story, or if i need to just stop while im behind. So one would be appreciated.

It was 12:32 when I finally got out of bed. I rolled over onto my side, feeling the pain of a hangover. I checked my phone for any missed calls; not that I had any friends. My phone was dead, and I got up to put it on the charger. As I was standing in front of my window, the light hit me and I became nauseated. I sprinted into my bathroom, just making it into the toilet. Hard liquor and pizza scorched my throat on the way up. I was sweating like hell and was dry heaving. Dazed and in pain, I climbed into the shower, turning the cold water on full power. It was a wake up call. All the memories flowed back from last night.

"Honey, I will call you after the concert, okay? Please be safe."

"Okay mom, I will. Stop being to worried. Go, have a good time with dad."

"I love you Elijah hon, have fun. Be careful while were gone."

With a chuckle I hung up. CeeCee and Bullfrog had gone to an exclusive tour in the Bahamas and wouldn't be back until the second month of my junior year. It was a little weird living without my parents for the first time, but I liked it.

I decided to go out and find a party to crash. I was new to this town and I didn't have any friends yet. I kinda liked it this way. Starting over, ya know. I drove around for a while until I came across a house that was packed with teenagers around my age. I walked in, seemingly unnoticed. There was a lot of beer, and I helped myself to some. After my second bottle, I was beginning to feel a little loose. "Your Paisley Jacket", my favorite song by my favorite band Dead Hand came on and I started bobbing my head. I spotted a cute girl checking me out from across the living room. Blonde, short, nice rack. She made her way through a crowd of people and started talking.

"Ive never seen you before? Are you new?"

"Depends on where you are asking im new to."

"Degrassi."

"Well then yes I am." I said with a smirk. Her golden brown eyes were focused on my green ones. Her look was intoxicating.

"Well I know where Ashley's parents hide the good stuff. Follow me."

She took my hand and led me upstairs to a master bedroom, which I assumed was this Ashley girls parent's room. She danced around the room to some music leading upstairs. She pulled out two bottles; one bottle of Whiskey, and one bottle of wine. I took the Whiskey and chugged it. She pushed me onto the bed and climbed on top of me. I dropped the bottle onto the floor and licked my lips. She made my heart race. My hands tremble.

I went downstairs and flipped on the TV. Sundays were my least favorite days. I never had anything to do. I felt even more alone now that our house was empty aside for the boxes of "shit yet to be un-pack". I decided id explore this new part of Canada. I grabbed a Pop-Tart and my keys from the kitchen and headed out the door. Morty- my best friend, my baby, my beautiful hearse- was parked at the curb.

I drove around aimlessly for a while, not knowing what I was looking for. I finally stopped at a clearing past some woods. It was peaceful. Morty and I sat in the middle, surrounded by grass and trees. The auburn and copper of the fall leaves contrasted greatly with black I had on. I was laying on the hood of my car, eyes closed and relaxing, when I heard a voice coming from the trees.

"No Alli, its not that I don't care, its just that I dont have anymore patience to exude for him or Jenna. Sorry."

Her voice was like wind chimes as it drew closer. I sat up and stared in the direction she was coming from. I heard her say her goodbyes and let out a sigh of relief. I saw her peek through the trees, stumbling over a couple of twigs. She was looking down when she came out, so she didn't see me at first. But when she finally looked up at me, she gasped and jumped back, putting her hand on her heart.

"Who are you?"
