Eli's Girl
Adam and Eli are close as brothers. But Adam hides a secret crush;he is in love a certain Miss Clare Edwards, only problem? She is Eli's girlfriend. A ONEXSHOT Adam's POV.
When I told Eli that I was transgender he took it better than my own family. He didn't look at me like a freak and treated me like I was a guy. He is the first true friend I ever had. We hung out, jammed, read comics, watch wrestling and boxing. For the first time I felt like I was fitting in somewhere. Like I found someone who accepted me as Adam, and not Gracie.
Clare Edwards reacted the same way. She was incredible cool about it. Actual she found out kinda in a funny way. I was at my locker getting tampons and she accidentally bumped into me. I panicked. The Fitz and Owen came up form behind and asked if they were mine. I was scared so I said that they were Clare's. Most people would have been like "These aren't mine." Or would have said something like that. But not Clare. She smiled a weird smile and said "Silly me, I am always dropping my feminine hygiene products." When I told her she seemed to understand. Unlike Bianca (the girl I had a huge crush on.) she was well a bitch. Clare was sweet. I decided to go back to Gracie to please my mom. I was depressed so I did what I always did when I was upset. I took my ugly barrette and heated up the metal part and burned my self. Clare saw in and ran over in horror. She grabbed my arm and with her cool hands she touched my burns. It was so simple, yet it meant so much. She told me that I didn't have to change who I was, everyone else needed to change to the way they saw me.
Clare was the sweetest person I ever met.
I knew Eli liked Clare. I mean anyone who spent 5 seconds talking to Eli knew he liked Clare. It was clear Clare liked him too. I often felt sick whenever I saw them flirting. Not only was I becoming a third wheel, but also because I kinda liked Clare.
OK I do like her a lot. Is that so weird? She is very cute, and smart and kinda and she has honey colored hair and baby blue eyes. The kind of eyes you could lost in. Believe me I have.
But Clare would never date me. Clare was in love with Eli. And Eli was in love with her. It was done. Still, at night I let my mind drift to a alternate universe, where a girl like Clare could like a guy like me. Where she would look at em with those big blue eyes the way she looked at Eli and I could hold her in my arms and kiss her sweet lips. But then I wake up and realize it was just a fantasy. Want to know what's sick? About this whole thing?
My best friend is in love with a girl I am in love with and...and I am happy for her. And Eli. So maybe I don't get this girl, I hold on to this hope. If after all the crap Eli has done, he can find a girl like Clare, maybe there was hope for me. And that is what I hold on to the most.
Authors Note: This kinda sucks... so feel free to rip this apart. I am not happy with it but whatever. Maybe someone will like it! I love Eclare but I cant help but get the feeling that Adam has a thing for Clare... just the way he looks at her. And acts when Eli and Clare were flirting in Still Fighting It. Oh and this was based on the Song Jessie's Girl by Rick Springfield.
