Chapter 1
Clare's POV
"You have to, know you have to!"
I kept playing it over and over again in my head. Each time it got more and more embarrassing. How close we had been, with me unconsciously leaning on him while he was backed up against a telephone pole. But, God. His eyes. They were a color green I had never seen before. Not Jade, no it was closer to an emerald shade. But so, so deep. Like I could look into them forever. But he let go, so I couldn't. I sat back on the bench with my head in my hands. I could only imagine the color red my face was; I probably looked like a tomato I was so embarrassed. But Eli, he just wore that damn smirk like he always does. UGH!
"So, you ready to go because the bell is going to ring in like fifteen minutes?"
"Yeah, let's go…" I said still not looking at him. I walked a bit quicker than I would have under different circumstances.
"Whoa, tryna' win a race there, Edwards?"
"No I just want to get back at the school before we get into more trouble then we probably already are, maybe you should, I don't know…walk a little faster?" I said sarcastically. My face felt cool enough so I turned to look at him. "Ugh you and your damn smirk…"
"Excuse me?" Eli asked
I stopped in my tracks. Did I say that out loud? 'Stupid, stupid Clare!' I began to rant in my head. I mentally slapped myself.
"Would you mind telling me, what's wrong with my smirk?" He asked with more then enough joy and curiosity in his eyes and in his tone.
"Well…." I began. And once I started, I couldn't stop. "It's…annoying. That's the closest thing to emotion you have show. Especially when you're being…well you! It makes me want to strangle you! And other times it makes me wan to-" I stopped myself not wanting to know what I was going to say next.
"Oh, c'mon Blue Eyes. You can't stop there. I really wanted to hear what you were going to say next." He wagged his eyebrows at me.
"Oh, shut up." I said, avoiding his eyes just filled with uber excitement.
"Well, if you can't tell me what it is about my smirk that annoys you so much, I guess I'll just have to keep on wearing' it 'till I figure it out."
"You do that, let your face hurt." I said as I rolled my eyes.
"Wow, someone's feeling feisty this morning…" I looked back and glared at him. At least we were almost at the school.
I turned around and began, "So – OOF!" Eli slammed into me knocking me to the ground. He was lying on top of me, covering my mouth, and we were both hiding in the bushes. "Teacher" he mouthed silently. I rolled me eyes and he smirked. We saw Mr. Wells get in his car and drive to God knows where. When he was out of site, Eli uncovered my mouth.
"Um, Eli?"
"Yeah Edwards?"
"Could, I…get up?" He still had me pinned to the ground.
He smirked, "Aw, but I was having so much fun." He said with mock disappointment.
"Eli…" I said not finishing my threat. He laughed and stood up. He offered me his hand. Just then the end of third period bell rang, so we ran inside. Still hand in hand. We came in laughing because I had grass stains on my back and he had grass in his hair.
"Clare! Where were y—" Ali started but then like a hawk she zeroed in on mine and Eli's hands still intertwined. Noticing, we both let go and stepped away from each other.
"Umm, Clare? Can I talk to you for a second?" 'Sure' wasn't even able to register in my mind before she had me tugged away from Eli. I looked back and shot him an apologetic look. He just nodded and mouthed "Later.".
She shoved me into the girl's washroom. "SPILL!" She squealed.
"What do you mean?" I said acting as if I had no idea what she was talking about.
"On how you're an ugly old hag who can't get a date to save her life." Jenna scoffed as she butt into mine and Ali's conversation.
"First of all, you're the ugly, fake, blonde, bimbo slut of Degrassi! And you have to stoop so low to get a boyfriend you'd steal him from your best friend!" Ali yelled at her.
"You wanna say that to my face Bhandari?" Jenna yelled.
"Oh, that's right. I forgot STUPID! Because I just did you bimbo!" I had grabbed Ali's arm.
"Let's just go Ali. That slut's not worth it." I said pulling her out on the verge of tears. What K.C. and Jenna did to me still hurt so much. But I'm completely over him. As we walked out we ran into Adam, and he saw I was about to cry.
"Aw, Clare Bear. What's wrong?"
"Stupid blonde bimbo is what's wrong…" Ali muttered. Adam shook his head in understanding. Then Ali saw someone walking down the hall. I figured it was Drew. "Umm, Clare, we'll finish our conversation later, I need to talk to someone. Adam, you got this one?"
"Yeah, I got it." I think they were referring to me. Either way, Ali walked in the other direction, and Adam put his arm around me and tugged me to the cafeteria.
