Chapter 1: Promnight part 1

Eli's POV

"Hurry, hurry", Imogen said.

"What's the rush?", I asked her. We were almost running through the building of the prom that night.

"Fiones wants the menu by twelve o'clock and it's 11:59."

"If were a few minutes late big deal", I said

Humongous deal, Fiona's made for months to make this prom perfect, and I, Imogen Moreno, won't disappoint."

Imogen stumbled and fell down.

"Are you okay?", I asked.

"Yeah, sorry."

"You don't have to be sorry."

Then my eyes fell on the closed envelop. "you still haven't opened your report card?!" I asked.

"Yeah, it must have slipped my mind." "Is that your final answer?", I said back. That envelop of doom for all the seniors.

"The content of this envelop seals my faith. If I pass I can go to designing school with Fiona, if I fail I have to spend another year on Degrassi, alone."

"Just open it", I said and I gave her the envelop. I could see she failed by the look on her face.

"You know, you're not the only one", I said and I smiled towards her. I failed, but just. It sucked but at least now I knew I wasn't the only one.

I heard heels ticking on the floor and saw Fiona coming towards us.

"There you are. Do you have the menus?", she asked.

Imogen put down her envelop and said: "I don't want to worry her on prom night."

"Don't tell me the printer got it wrong", Fiona said.

"Don't be such a worrywart", Imogen said. She was a pretty good actress, I guess because Fiona didn't seem to sense Imogen's disappointment.

"You're right", she said, "Okay, time for the great reveal". The three of us walked into the room. It looked better than the year before. But I guess the year before had bad memories for everyone. The shooting at the party wasn't really a highlight of the night.

"Is it too much?", Fiona asked.

"Fiones, it's like, it's like a movie", Imogen replied. Meanwhile I was walking away. I still had a lot to take care of.

"And we are the stars", Fiona said. I rolled my eyes when they started kissing and grabbed my phone.

"Hello, with Eli Goldsworthy, I was wondering at what time I could get the carriage I arranged for today.""A mister Goldsworthy, you can come around 5.30 pm to pick up your carriage." "Thank you, I will be there", I replied and hung up. Now I only needed to get dressed for tonight. The night of the fairytale.

Clare's POV

"Ooh lala, what about this one?" Alli said while holding out a purple dress with some black details. We weren't seniors yet, but Jenna and Alli already wanted to go to the prom. We also went last year, the year everything went terribly wrong with Adam. We were so shocked when he was shocked. He was so lucky he's survived it.

"Alli, I told you I'm not going to prom.", I said back.

Jenna started: "But what about-". "Don't say that name", I interrupted, but Alli continued: "Eli."

I looked mad and Alli sighed: "But hasn't he send you like a dozen voice mails?"

"Yeah, well he wanted space, so I gave him a lot", I replied. Eli had hurt me a lot in the past, but the last time when we tried to talk and he broke up with me, was the most horrible one. He was showering in the ladies dress room, and undressed him while all the girls were watching. He even run through school naked. I knew it was drugs, but it was terrible.

"Well, you know what they say, looking good is the best revenge."

I sighed and continued looking through some clothes.

"She is right you know", I heard and I looked up. "Sorry, have we met?", I asked. I couldn't remember seeing him before.

He reached out his hand and said: "Cliff Jacobs, I'm in you history class." We shook hands.

I felt a little bit embarrassed and remembered him. "o right, sorry", I smiled at him.

Some guys walked towards Cliff signing they were leaving. "See you around", he said and started leaving. "Okay", I replied, while he was walking away.

"What about all the people who want you two together?" Jenna said all of a sudden.

"What people?", I said a bit annoyed.

"You guys are finalists for prom king and queen", Jenna said back.

"Okay, for the last time, Eli and I are done", I said.

"And for the last time, I don't buy it", Ali replied.

I looked at them and came up with an idea. I walked towards Cliff who still didn't really leave. "Hey, uh, Cliff. Do you have a date for prom?", I asked. "No, why?", he replied.

"Well, I don't have either so maybe we can go together."

"Uh, sure I pick you up around 7", he said and walked away.

Now I didn't have to hear about Eli anymore. I bought the dress Alli showed me and we went to my house together.

We started getting ready. Alli was doing my make up and Jenna was doing hers. I knew this would be perfect. Prom with my best friends. We partied a bit while getting ready already getting in the mood for prom. Of course we didn't do as much effort as we would do next year, since it wasn't our prom. I was glad this was the last evening I'd have to see Eli. I could finally end the chapter of Mr. Goldsworthy.

We put on our dresses and while Alli was doing her own make up, I walked up to her. "Do you think Cliff is short for Clifford or Clifton?", I asked.

"Uhm, Heahtclif", she replied. I know she was referring to the main character of Wuthering Heights. "No! No, torture romantic heroes. Tonight is about fun, new people and new experiences."

"And making Eli jealous", Jenna said. It hit me, since I knew it was right, but I denied it. "How Eli feels is irrelevant." I tried to get rid of the Eli subject. "Cliff is really cute, isn't he?", I said quickly.

"Total dreambo", Jenna said. We looked at her questioning she knew that she just said. After a few seconds she did and said: "Don't tell connor I said that." We laughed.

"Clare, your prom date is here", I heard Glen yell.

"Alli, could you zip me up?", I said. "Yeah sure."

"Be careful, maybe he's a murderer", Jenna joked. "Well, at least if I die, I don't have to hear Eli's name again."

After she'd zipped me up I sprinted downstairs.

Eli's POV

There I was, right before the door of my beloved. I was dressed like some Disney prince, even included with a cute little fake sword. I was nervous and couldn't place my sword anywhere. Because of my nervous behavior I didn't hear that she'd opened the door. I turned around finally able to fit the sword and tried to take a prince pose, which was pretty hard in the carriage. I had to catch my breath for a second when I saw her, but then started talking.

"You said we weren't a fairytale", I paused for a second, "I'm gonna prove you wrong." I could hear Jenna and Alli giggle from the balcony. Clare looked annoyed to the girls.

All of a sudden there walked in another guy and he looked at me and Clare.

"Who are you", I asked him.

"Cliff, her, uh, date", he answered, "who are you?"

"Eli, her, uh, soul mate." I was surprised Clare had found a new date in this short amount of time.

Clare looked nervous and didn't know what to do. I tried to talk to her, but she had already decided.

It was hard to do, but I let her go with Cliff. I knew I had the entire dance to win her over. I knew with the help of Fiona it would work. I went to the prom by myself, and I felt terrible. I waited for a while so the rejection wouldn't look so bad. By the time I arrived, Alli and Jenna already were there which meant Clare probably also was there. After a while I spotted her and that guy, Cliff, on the dance floor. I sat down at my table, alone. The place next to me was reserved for Clare. I started playing a bit with the silverware.
