Once upon a time, there was a place, this place joined many different kinds of teenagers together. Whether you were colored, had different beliefs, or different personalities. This one place joined them all together as one big happy family (kinda). Most people referred to this place as "High School."
In this Canadian high school, was a 161/2 year old girl, Clare Edwards. She had subtle auburn hair, and stunning blue eyes. She had a slim build, and she was 5'2". Now, Clare was smarter and brighter then the typical teenager. She got straight A's, was really shy, and she only had one friends that meant the world to her. Her name was Alli, Clare met Alli the first day at Degrassi.
Though she was the new girl, one boy (Eli) noticed her subtle beauty. You might be wondering what happened? Well, one day while walking down the hallway, she clumsily bumped into Eli. Clare wouldn't stop apologizing, but Eli just snickered at her. Eli and Clare got up oh so slowly, and looked at each other, and right then they were both speechless. "Wow, you have beautiful blue eyes…um..." Eli paused. "C-cclare" She stuttered out. "Clare Edwards." "Awe, Clare, Beautiful name to match those beautiful eyes, huh?" Eli indicated. "Nice to meet you Clare, my name is Eli, Eli Goldsworthy." As you know, Clare was shy, so she just looked at him, trying to speak, but it felt like her vocal cords had been removed. But she did get a smile to slowly inch onto her face. Eli smiled, noticing that she wasn't going to say anything anytime soon. "Okay, well, I guess I will see you around." Clare smiled, thinking too herself "Yea, hopefully." As she watched Eli disappear into the crowd of people.
"Now Eli was 17, and very mysterious. Though he had a darker appearance, he had a personality that shined like a star in the Milky Way galaxy, but of course no one knew this. Here I will tell you more about Eli; his favorite color is black, he loves heavy metal and rap, he's very sensitive, and he has a fear of deep water.
Clare couldn't help but notice Eli, and his mysterious ways. And she secretly wanted to figure him out, every inch of that gorgeous body. Now Clare didn't take Elis compliment lightly. She was never the girl that got compliments, so she observed herself in the mirror day and night. She never saw why Eli thought so highly of her! Personally, she thought he was plain and boring girl, at least compared to all the barbies' of her grade.
3 Months later…..
Now by this time, Eli and Clare were good friends, wait, scratch that; they were great friends. Clare could feel a bond growing between them, like vines on the side of an old abandoned house. They would tell each other everything, and for the most part people thought they were going out. But sadly they weren't, well at least not yet. Clare really liked Eli, though they had different personalities. And quite frankly, she was tired of being just friends. So she decided to change that, because she couldn't stand this feeling any longer.
One blustery winter day, at school, Clare decided to wait for Eli at his locker. She waited patiently for three minutes, until he finally showed up. "Hai Eli." Clare said, feeling butterflies swarm in her stomach. "Yola blue eyes, how's it going?" Eli replied with that smirk, that made Clare's knees weak. "Um, well, um, you see, I just wanted to ask you something." Clare said, feeling her insides turn. "Um okay? Shoot!" He said in his sexy voice. But apparently Eli couldn't wait any longer. "Clare, I-I can't just be friends with you." Eli looked down at the ground. "I-I like you too much. And it's killing me inside." Clare smiled, "Awe, Eli. I feel the same way." Eli glanced over in shock at what she had just said. He definitely didn't want to miss this great opportunity.
He pulled her into a passionate hug, and as they pulled away from each others grip. He crashed his lips over hers. Clare was shocked, but loved the butterfly action happening throughout her whole body. The kiss lasted for what seemed an eternity. And boy, Eli a great kisser. As they pulled away Clare asked nervously, "So…. does that mean were-were.. going out now?" "Well, I don't know…." Eli said, pulling her in for another passionate kiss. Eli pulled away and smiled, "Does that answer your question?" Clare blushed, turning her ivory skin into a pinkish color, "Yes, I think it does." And they walked hand in hand out of the school.
