CLARES POV
He looked deep into my eyes and smiled. "Clare there is something I have to tell you."
My breath caught in my throat as I tried to answer so I just nodded for him to continue
"Clare, I lo..."
CRASH! I bolted upright and looked over at the clock. 7:25. Dad must have just gotten home. I could hear him and mom yelling at each other. I heard another crash as I got out of bed to get ready for school. They must be fighting again and it sounds like mom is throwing things around.
I sighed as I went into the bathroom to take a shower. As I step into the running water I think back on my dream. I've been having the same dream ever since he ran over my glasses a month ago. Yeah we have become more than just English partners in that time but I'm still too afraid to tell him how I feel. I mean I don't even know if he feels the same way for crying out loud.
I know I promised myself that I wouldn't fall for anyone else after what happened with KC but this is different. I sighed and whispered his name, "Eli."
ELIS POV
i have been laying awake in my bed ever since 7:00 a.m. I usually don't get up this early. I'm the type of person to sleep in until ten minutes before school. I laugh as I think of the reason i am awake so early. Clare Edwards.
I just cant seem to stop thinking about her. Ever since her loud friend knocked her glasses into the road and i ran over them, she has been all i have thought about. Walking into English, late as usual, and seeing her sitting there was a pleasant surprise. Of course i couldn't show it.
Clare is not the type of girl i usually go for. She is different and completely amazing. But she probably doesn't feel the same way as me.
I decided i might as wel get up and get ready since i am already awake. as i was throwing on some clothes i had an idea. I needed to find out if she felt the same way. Very out of character of me but thats what love does to you. Wait did i say love? shaking my head i made a final decision.
My mission today: tell Clare how i feel and find out if she feels the same way.
I smirked to myself as i grabbed the keys to Morty and headed out the door.
