Need You Now
Ok, this may not be my first fanfic, but it is my fist Degrassi fanfic. If you love it… tell me. If you hate it… tell me. I won't be hurt, I'll be grateful and determined to fix my mistake. I do not own Degrassi (if I did I would totally be a main character ;) and I do not own the song "Need You Now". Lady Antebellum does. Well, review please. Hope ya'll enjoy it!
Clare
Clare walked into her room and dropped her suitcase. Today was her first day back from a drama free vacation at her grandmother's. it was disgusting seeing her parents make googly eyes at each other. They finally worked out their differences. And she was happy for them, but… She turned on her radio and collapsed on her bed. Sighing, she logged into her laptop and checked her email. No messages. At least, not from him. Letting out another sigh, she clicks on media and selects Romeo and Juliet 3rd Period English.
Better be soon.
"That was Shark in the Water by VV Brown. Next is a fan favorite. This is 95.3 KCFM.
Picture perfect memories
Scattered all around the floor
"Romeo! You drank the high fructose poison," Clare heard herself say. A tear slid down her cheek as the camera had zoomed in on their kissing scene.
Reaching for the phone cause
I can't fight it anymore
Clare grabbed her phone and began to text.
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time
Closing her cell, she grabs her coat and purse, and runs out the front door.
It's a quarter after one
I'm all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn't call
But I lost all control
And I need you now
And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now
Eli
Eli was sitting on his floor. He managed to get into his parents alcohol cabinet that was saved for special occasions. He had his Ipod on "Clare's Playlist". Lady Antebellum's "Need You Now" was playing. He couldn't stop playing Vegas Night's scene in his head. Clare stating that she wasn't sure if she could be with him anymore broke his heart. He felt lost. Lonely. Incomplete.
Another shot of whiskey
Can't stop looking at the door.
He felt his phone vibrate. Thinking it was another call from Adam, Eli was prepared to yell his head off at his best friend. One new message from Clare Edwards, his screen read.
Wishing you'd come sweeping
In the way you did before
He flips his phone open and reads it. When he finally finishes reading it, he grabbed his keys and took off in Morty.
And I wonder if I ever cross you mind
For me it happens all the time
Eli,
I can't continue avoiding this. I like you too much to be with you and go through that again. But I love you even more to not be with you. Meet me at the park table where we shared our first kiss in 10 min. – Clare.
It's a quarter after one
I'm a little drunk and I need you now
Said I wouldn't come
But I lost all control
And I need you now
And I don't know how
I can do without
I just need you now.
Both
It's a quarter after
