Author's Note: Hello Everyone!(:

So here is another little one-shot... I was actually thinking on whether or not to turn this into a two-shot?

Hmmm, well enjoy reading!(:

"It's Saturday night, friends are over, and there is an equal amount of people here. C'mon Jenna, have some fun!" KC said, pulling her down on the ground next to him. Jenna, KC, Eli, Alli, Clare, and I were having a small get together and Alli came up with the idea to play spin-the-bottle. Oh joy, I thought sarcastically.

"Who's going to spin first?" Alli said looking around at everyone while she put the bottle in the middle. No one spoke up, so Alli closed her eyes and played eenie-meenie. Her finger landed on Eli, who just shrugged and reached down to spin in. Seconds past and the bottle came to a slow, creeping to a complete stop; right on Jenna. Eli looked at Jenna, whose mouth was dangling open, obviously not believing what she saw. Eli, wanting to be the funny one, spoke in a deep voice like Elvis, when he said, "Pucker up sweet thang." While everyone laughed, including me, Eli and Jenna shared their moment and a new spinner was chosen.

"Adam! You spin!" Jenna said smiling at me. I sighed and spun the bottle as hard as I could, wanting it to be a while before it stopped; no one in this group was someone that I was actually interested in, except for…

"Clare?" I said looking at her in amazement. She looked down, blushing. I looked at Eli, who was staring at me with a puzzled look on his face that seemed to scream, why-haven't-you-kissed-her-already? I gulped, and Clare looked up at me. I moved closer to Clare, who had done the same; we paused inches away from each other, our foreheads almost touching.

"Clare, you don't have to," I was cut off by her gentle lips crashing against mine. The kiss was so innocent, so sincere, so, well, Clare; yet, there was something there. Longing? No, excitement? Nah, what was it? Well, whatever it was, it was defiantly there. It felt like minutes had passed, not seconds, before I finally broke off the kiss and pulled away. "Whoa." I whispered quietly to where I knew only I could hear it. Clare giggled and I looked at her. Did Clare and I just really….? She smiled when she looked at me, and I quickly looked down. "I'll be right back." I muttered, quickly getting up from my spot and racing out of the room and towards the stairs. The last thing I had heard was Clare telling KC to spin. I walked up the stairs and to the bathroom, just staring at the door after I walked in. I hope that the whole thing down stairs hadn't had blown it with Clare; I mean, I like her. Kind of even more then a—my thoughts were cut off by three rapid knocks on the door.

"Yeah?" I called, just waking out of my daze.

"Dude open up, it's Eli." I unlocked the door and Eli stepped in, shutting it behind him. He smiled when he shoved his hands into his coat's pockets, and just stared at me for a moment. He cocked his head; a maniac style grin crept its way over his face.

"You like her, don't you." He said and I studied myself in the mirror, fixing my bangs that fell to the side and replaced my hat.

"Who, Jenna? Oh alright man, what are you on?" I laughed nervously, knowing that's not at all who he meant. Eli shook his head, and laughed also.

"You know who I meant; Jenna shouldn't even be able to count as single, with her always making out with KC and whatnot."

"True." I nodded and turned to him. "But she's a total bimbo—any fool she got with is just as much of an idiot as she is. No offence towards her…." I trailed off walking towards the door and placing my hand lightly on the knob. "So, should we get back to the party thing?" I asked, looking back at him.

"Not until you answer my question; do you like Clare." I sighed.

"Of course I do; she's one of my closest friends. How could I not?"

"Adam." Eli said sternly. Seriously, would he just let it go? He'll probably make fun of my actual answer anyways…

"Yes." I whispered just low enough to where he had to ask 'what?'

"I said y-yes." I stuttered on the last word afraid for him to here it, than looked down.

"Sweet." He said, and I snapped my head up. Had I heard him right? Did he just say sweet? No way.

"Urh, why?" I asked totally confused.

"Don't tell her I told you this, alright?" I nodded and hung onto every word that he said.

"She likes you; she told me herself when we were hanging out the other day." My mouth shot to the ground, this night was completely unbelievable.

"Yeah right; thanks for yanking my chain. I can't believe you actually had me fooled!" I pulled the door open, and rushed out into the hall before I felt a hand on my shoulder pulling me back.

"I'm not joking. You want to know how it's true?" I nodded, folding my arms. "Go down stairs, and ask her to go outside with you; when she says yes, and trust me she will, go to the field and ask her if she liked what you two did. After that, everything is up to you two." Without another word, I turned around and went to go get Clare.

Clare's POV~

~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!

"Adam, will you please tell me why we're standing in the middle of my field at ten o'clock at night?" I laughed, and looked at his beautiful face that glistened under the moon light. He was silent, just looking at the ground while my laughs drifted through the night and calmed down. Minutes could have passed while I was just staring at him, waiting for an answer; the only movement from him was when he placed his hands on his hips and hung his head down. "Adam." I whispered walking closer to him, wrapping my hands around his wrists. "What's wrong?" He looked up taken by surprise at how close I was.

"Clare…." He started, looking at me. "I um… I don't know how to say…." He choked on his words, and shook his head looking down once again.

"Say what?" I asked confused, what was so big?

"I don't know how to say it in words; every time I try, I suffocate. Like a big lump is stuck in my throat." Hmmm, I thought about another way that he could tell me… Or show me.

"Adam, show me."

"What?" He asked slightly moving his head upward.

"Show me what you can't say. You know, what you keep choking up on." He shook his head and looked me straight in the eyes.

"You wouldn't like it; you'd probably freak out and never talk to me again."

"I promise I won't. Please, please, ple-'' Adam's lips crashed against mine, before I could even finish my sentence. I was defiantly surprised, but after a few seconds my eyes fluttered shut. His hands had left mine and found their way to the small of my back; while mine traveled up to his face gently cupping it. He pulled away first just like he had done when we had been playing the game, but kept his face next to mine. I slid my hands down to the collar of his shirt pulling him closer to me, and I smiled.

"I like you Clare; and the only way I could have even begun to show you was that; that kiss." I nodded, smiling as thoughts of Adam and me as a couple danced through my head.

"Then I have something for you to do for me." I said, not wanting to open my eyes.

"What?" He said, by the tone of his voice confused.

"If you don't want to go out, leave and don't say a word to me; just leave me standing here by myself. But if you do…" I started. "Then kiss me."

~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!

DUN-DUN-DUN.

Cliff hanger!

Alright, so I know the idea or Adam and Clare getting together probably isn't that appealing to some of you?

But there is going to be a MAJOR twist so don't worry!

Then again, if you like the thought of Adam and Clare together, you should tell me in a review?

Please no bashing(:

Thanks for reading!
