Clare's POV
We laid under the stars on the hood of Morty. This night could not get any better. I snuggled my head in closer to his chest. Our fingers intertwined under the blanket.
We had been there for hours. Talking and laughing together. There was never and uncomfortable silence between us. That's what I loved so much about being with him. We were so perfect for each other. It was scary how much I cared for him.
He turned his face to me. My stomach got more butterflies as it always did when his emerald eyes pierced my blue ones.
His warm soft lips pressed up against mine. Making my stomach flip over and over again. He broke the kiss and smiled. Then whispered in my ear, "Clare.. I love you."
"Eli.." I whispered back, "I could never love anyone more than you." I snuggled in closer too him. Softly in the background a slow song played. Eli lifted his head up swung his legs over the side of Morty and took my hand.
He pulled me off of Morty and wrapped his arm around my waist pulling me closer. I put my arms around his neck and lay my head on his chest. Listening to his slow steady heart beat.
Our hips swayed with the beat of the music and it felt like we were the only too people left on the earth. I felt him kiss the top of my head and then rest his chin on my head. His grip tightened and he pulled me closer.
The music played and we danced for hours. The silence between us wasn't awkward. It was peaceful. I was happy to be with him and he was happy to be with me.
Finally around 1 am we both fell asleep on the hood of Morty. I woke the next morning next to the hottest guy I've ever seen. The thoughts went through my head was he's mine. Only mine. And I was his.

Eli's POV
I stepped out of Morty and started walking up the path to Adams house. Yes. We were still best friends even after Clare and I broke up 5 years ago. A year after we broke up Clare got in a terrible accident. Sending her into a coma for almost a year.
Or so Adam told me. I missed Clare still to this day. I missed her more then anyone in the world. It was difficult falling asleep, only to end up dreaming about Clare. And how her perfect golden brown curls framed her face. How her beautiful blue eyes made me go numb for a second whenever she looked at me.
I always wanted her to be mine, and I always wanted to be hers. But I guess fate had other plans. We broke up in a fight about Julia. Of course. And a year later she got in the accident. No one knows what kind of accident it was and she couldn't tell us because the accident knocked out half of her memory.
I never heard about it till about 3 months after she got out of the coma. For a month I cried myself to sleep knowing she was hurt like that. I constantly wondered if she remembered who I was. I knew who she was. She was the beautiful girl who stole my heart and never gave it back.
She probably had a million guys after her right now. I mean how could they not love Clare? With how stunning and amazing she is. But there's no use living in the past anymore is there. Even though I'm still deeply in love with her.. Deep down I knew it would never happen again.
I got to the front door and knocked. I could hear heels clicking against the floor getting closer until the door opened and there stood Adam's wife Alli. Yes.. I know what your thinking.. Alli? Alli Bhandari? Yes. It's Alli Bhandari. She fell in love with Adam after Drew broke her heart and Adam was the one to care for her.
This all happened while Clare was in the hospital. While I had no clue she was in there. I wish I hadn't made that mistake. If I had known I would've found her. And stayed with her until she woke up. Even if it took a year.
"Eli!" she grinned and wrapped her arms around my neck for a hug. "I'm so happy too see you again! And so is Adam. Very very excited." she opened the door more motioning for me to come in.
I stepped in and admired the house. It was filled with fancy furniture, dark painted walls, signed posters of famous bands. Like the Proxemics and Fall Out Boy. I wondered how he knew these bands. He was never the music listening type, but i guess Alli could have dawned on him.
Adam came down the steps smiling. "Eli!" he shouted. "Adam! It's been so long!" I replied with a smirk.
"Oh I know.. What? 2 years?" he asked while trying to tie his shoe. "Well yea.. You married Alli that year, and I was your best man. That night was.. Oh my" I laughed. "Yea.. Wasn't Clare still in the hospital that night?" he asked slowly waiting to see if it stung me to even talk about it.
My throat tightened and I could feel my eyes almost well with tears as I pushed them away then tried to answer. "..Yea I think." "Oh." he replied looking down in shame for asking. "Sorry man."
"Its fine.. Its just.. I miss her." I replied softly. "I wish I could see her. More then anything in the world. That's what I want for Christmas. Too see Clare."
Adam thought about it for a minute. "Eli.. No ones talked to Clare for months. Not even Alli. And she's her best friend. Still. I doubt we could ever get a hold of her." he bit his lip.
