New Summary: It seems as if Eli moved on from the break up well. Now its Clare's turn. However, she's in for a rude awakening as her world gets tangled with her new lover's; who just might have more secrets to be revealed. Read as the drama kicks in. Cake
Clare's point of view
Walking into Degrassi the morning after summer break might have been one of the hardest things I've done in my whole life. Knowing that the love of my life who probably hated my guts stood inside those walls was enough reason to stay away. Unfortunately, that wasn't really an option for me.
The halls were bustling with overwhelmed people. Step by step I was slowly approaching my locker, desperately wishing Eli wasn't at his. Just as I was about to turn the corner I heard a familiar voice that spoke in its usual sarcasm and wit. However, the thing that made me bolt straight ahead for Alli's locker was the flirtatious giggle that had come from a girl.
Although Alli wasn't at her locker, I opened it up to hide behind the door, and spy on Eli with the new girl. I watched them flirt as he gave her his famous smirk and she blushed a rosy pink. I examined the girl closely. She had long brown wavy hair, with chocolate eyes, and stood about an inch or two shorter than Eli. She wore a red Degrassi polo that was tucked into her kaki skirt. I'll admit she was pretty and I couldn't help but begin to feel jealous.
Why I was jealous was a question I couldn't answer. I mean I broke up with him, I should be happy he's moving on right? Even though I was only thinking of him and his mental health, I needed my space too. But the thought that he had moved on so quickly lingered throughout my mind. Did he not love me like he said, to care enough that we were through; to let me go without a fight? Frustration was building inside of me, until Alli came by and broke me from my thoughts.
"Hey…what are you doing?" she asked raising her eyebrows as she followed my gaze toward Eli.
"Is it normal for a guy to move on so fast from a girl he said he loved?" I asked her in need for an explanation.
She sighed, "Look, Clare, it's been a whole summer; you need to forget about him. He's weird and creepy, and to be honest, I never really thought he was a good guy for you." Alli seemed so sure of herself. And I should trust her; she's my best friend and knows everything about me.
Then a piercing bell had rung leaving an echo throughout the hallways.
"I know; you're right Alli. I should move on," I took a quick look back at Eli and watched him walk away side by side, hand in hand, with the new girl.
"Come on, let's go. Maybe we'll find you a nice new boy to sweep you off your feet." Alli dragged me away to homeroom, after she closed her locker.
...
My first two periods went by slowly, probably because I couldn't stop thinking about what I seen this morning. And lucky for me, I had English next period, so there was a chance that Eli could be in my class again. I didn't know what I'd do if I saw him.
By the time I had reached the classroom, I saw Eli already sitting in his seat. I looked at the desks around him and saw that one of which was occupied by the very same girl I had seen earlier. 'Great…' I thought.
As he turned to talk to the girl behind him, he glanced at me with an unreadable expression. In the midst of it I saw shock, panic, and sadness all at once. Then at the very last minute, there was a smirk plastered on his face. One that might have well said, 'Yeah that's right, I found someone to replace you with; hope you're jealous.'
He can be so hard to figure out sometimes, and it was getting on my nerves. I wanted to know what he was thinking, however from what Adam told me over the summer; Eli's been becoming a lot more arrogant since he met this new girl. He said that Eli was constantly rubbing in his face how this girl was all over him and how lucky he was to find her after me. The part about me was mean but what ticked me off the most was how he bragged about it to Adam. Eli knows well enough the trouble Adam's been in the past year with relationships.
After that, I waited by the door and thought about approaching him, but rethought it over. I didn't want to start a commotion, so instead I kept my head held high with confidence, and walked straight past them; showing Eli I was just as much over him as he was of me. Noticing Eli's surprised gaze on me, I took an available seat toward the side of the classroom.
Glancing back again, I saw him laughing…with her. I made an angry yet disgusted face at their direction, even though they couldn't see me.
"So I'm assuming he's a jerk," an unfamiliar boy who sat on my right stated. Turning toward me, he had light brown hair with matching eyes, and must have been a jock based on his muscular built body. Overall he could've been named one of the hottest guys at Degrassi.
"You could say that," I replied as he smiled at his correct assumption. Wow, was that smile breathtaking. He had perfectly straight, sparkling, white teeth. Then my eyes dropped, thinking of Eli's smile.
"What's the story?" Apparently he noticed based on the sincerity in his voice.
"Its kind of long…and boring…and complicated. I doubt you'll be interested," I answered when Mrs. Dawes walked into the room.
"Guess you'll have to tell me at lunch," he stated, not questioned. As he turned in his seat to face the front of the class room, the teacher began her lecture and writing on the board.
I smiled to myself. Maybe things would finally be looking up for me.
