Sk8er boi - Avril Lavigne

Clare's POV

I stared at him talking to her. He always says he loves the popular girl who doesn't like him or at least as much as I like him. No not like love. It breaks my heart to see him in love with Julia Montgomery. He always tries to ask her out but, she says n and he always cries to me about it.

One day he is either going to succeed or give up. I hope it's the latter.

Eli came up to me with a defeat look on his face.

"She's dating K.C." he said sadly.

"I'm sorry Eli. You'll find someone better than Julia one day," I said with hope that he'll love me one day.

"I hope so." He said a single tear falling down his cheek.

6 years later

"Mommy, daddy wake up!" I woke up to my 5 year old daughter Autumn so jumping on the bed.

"Why are you so excited for your first day of school?" Eli said sleepily.

Yes that's right Eli. I married the man of my dreams he finally gave up on Julia and we fell in love. Typical love story.

"I want to make friends and learn." She said jumping off the bed pulling the covers down.

"Ok we'll be down in a minute," I said getting up while she ran to get dressed.

I got ready. When I was looking in the mirror lost in my thoughts I felt a pair of arms wrap around me.

I looked up and saw his gorgeous green eyes.

"Hey," he said leaning down and giving me a chaste kiss.

"Autumn is jumping around waiting to go." He chuckled.

"Ok I'm ready," I said walking downstairs with Eli trailing behind me.

Once we got to Degrassi elementary school and stopped the car Autumn jumped out yelling for us to come.

We got out following her to her classroom.

"Hello, I'm Mrs. Dawes," the teacher said shaking our hands.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw a mother staring at Eli. She looked extremely familiar.

I shook her hand back, "Hello, I'm Clare Goldsworthy and this is my husband Eli and our daughter Autumn," I said smiling and looking lovingly at Eli. Him returning the look.

I saw the same girl staring at us with a look of shock and noticed who it was.

Her. The extremely perfect Julia Montgomery. That Eli used to be in love with.

She was just with a little boy that looked like K.C.

But, he wasn't with her.

She walked up to us and I shooed Autumn off to go play.

"Eli, Clare I never expected to see you guys again," She stated saying his name adoringly.

"Neither did we," we said in unison.

"Eli I remember how much you were in love with me in high school," She smiled flirtatiously at Eli.

He looked away, then at me and smiled.

"That was the past, I'm in love with Clare. And I always will be," he smirked.

She looked shocked then stomped off .

I smiled up at him and we kissed.
