Clare POV
I was in my living room watching TV and texting with Eli. I heard the phone ring so I went over to pick it up.
"Hello"
"Clare? This is Henry, is your father home?" The man spoke
"Dad?...DAD? DAD!" Clare walked around the house screaming for him.
"Yeah, let me get him for you" Clare ran up the stairs and knocked on his door…. no answer.
"Dad?...DAD? DAD!" Clare walked around the house screaming for him.
"DAD! Phone!" Yelled Clare while getting inpatient since she left her phone
Downstairs and Eli was texting her.
Mr. Edward POV
I was taking out the garbage when I heard Clare screaming my name. "Teenage girls" I said to myself then walked in looking for her. It wasn't hard to find her; she was upstairs running around opening all the doors and yelling for me. She turned around and saw me.
"DAD! Phone!" She yelled.
"Clare I'm right here, no need to yell" I spoke calmly
she giggled "sorry dad, its just that I left my phone down stairs…" she said while handing me the phone.
I laughed and said "You wouldn't want to keep Elijah waiting"
She rolled her eyes and laughed then said "I love you dad" then gave me a kiss on the cheek and ran downstairs.
I stood there and laughed, I love Clare she never seizes to surprise me. One minute we're shopping for back to school clothes with her and Darcy and she's refusing to buy anything saying "I don't need new clothes, I'm wearing my uniform to school" the next she's crying over a broken heart then she's completely smitten over her new boyfriend…I will never understand teenage girls I guess.
I answered the phone "Hello"
"Randall! Buddy! How are you?" spoke an un-familiar voice
"this is he, may I ask who's speaking" I spoke a bit confused.
He laughed then spoke "It's me Henry, i got my tonsils removed"
I laughed "Henry how are you! What a surprise, how's the business in Chicago?"
He laughed then spoke a bit more serious "That's why I'm calling actually, the business is great! But me…not so much. I've been getting tests done and the doctor wants' me to leave work for a few weeks to rest"
"Are you ok, Henry? I hope it's nothing serious" I spoke with concern
"I'm not sure, they are still doing test's…I was wondering if you could cover my position over here in Chicago for a few weeks, maybe a month. " He spoke
"Gee, I don't know Henry….ever since the divorce me and Helen spend every other week with Clare…..And Helen left to care for her mother in Alberta 2 days ago, she wont be back for a couple months…...And I can't take Clare with me, she has school" I spoke a little bummed that I couldn't help him out.
"Randall, Clare's a responsible young lady she'll be ok for a few weeks at home" he spoke
I thought about it then spoke "You're right Henry, I just still see her as my littler girl I guess" I paused for a bit "I'm sure Clare will be fine, I'll do it….when should I leave?"
He laughed then said "Great! I'll arrange a flight for you over here for 5pm today"
"Woah! That's pretty fast….well I better start packing, see you soon Henry"
"Thank you so much Randy! I owe you one!, bye!"
"Goodbye"
I hung up and went to look for Clare. I saw her sitting on the couch pressing keys on her phone and smiling, I waited for her to finish and then spoke.
"Clare sweetie, a friend of mine is sick and needs me to cover for him at the Chicago office in the US, You think you'll be ok for a month alone?" I asked a little hesitant.
Clare POV
I looked at him and smiled "Don't worry dad, I'll be fine. I hope everything is ok" I said sincerely.
He smiled "Me too Clare-Bear" he paused for a moment then spoke "Listen, my flight leaves at 5pm today" he walked towards the computer and sat down then began to speak again "I'm transferring some money into your bank account to cover the expenses, if you need anymore don't hesitate to call"
He went upstairs to go pack and I walked over to the computer, curious as to how much money he was leaving me. "WOW!" I said out loud. Dad transferred $6000…..i think it's a bit too much…..but I'm not going to complain. I sat on the computer checking my facerange profile when my dad rushed down the stairs with bags in hands.
"Well, Clare-Bear my taxi is outside. Call me if you need more money" he paced around a little then spoke again "You should invite Alli to stay with you, or Adam"
"Adam can stay with me? Can Eli?"
"Well sweetie, umm…."
I cut him off "Dad! Adam is a boy! What are you trying to insinuate!"
He looked nervous and spoke "I know he's a boy sweetie…..but….."
I glared at him
He sighed "You're right, Adam is a boy….so if he can stay, I guess Eli can too…BUT NO FUNNY BUSINESS!"
I smiled and flashed him my purity ring then ran over to hug him "Thanks dad! You're the best"
He hugged me and smiled "I'll see you in a few weeks Clare-Bear"
"Bye Daddy!" I waved at him as he got into the taxi.
I walked back over to my laptop and signed back into Facerange. I updated my status -Home alone for a whole month! Woo!- I then got a notification.
Alli Bhandari, Eli Goldsworthy, Drew Torres, Fiona Coyne & Adam Torres like your status.
I giggled then my chat window popped up.
Eli-gold49: Hey Edwards! What's this I hear about you being home alone :D
Clare-e23: well you know how my mom is in Alberta? Well my dad had to leave on a business trip he wont be back for a month, so yes I will be home alone….ALONE! and I intend to keep it that way :p
Eli-gold49: OUCH!
Eli-gold49: And here I am you're sweet amazing and caring Boyfriend worried about his girlfriend being all alone for such a long time.
Clare-e23: I'll be fine, I can take care of myself ;)
Eli-gold49: Well…me being as concerned as I am, I guess I'll just have to camp outside of your house in the cold…alone…protecting you.
I laughed and continued to torture him.
Clare-e23: Fine by me Eli. :p
Eli-gold49: CLARE! xD
Clare-e23: Fiiiine Eli, you can stay. :)
Eli-gold49: I'll be there at 7:30
Eli-gold49 signed off at 5:45pm
Ugh! He always does that to me, never lets me answer…..but I love it. I walked over to the kitchen and decided to make us something to eat…..i looked and realized dad forgot to go shopping….I guess I'll just order take-out.
"Hellooooo tank yu fo callin wongs, how may I hel yu" they answered
"What are you're specials?" I replied
"Aw specills we got 務業的食品處理人員必須在雇傭日後"
I had no idea what they had just said to me ,I just replied "Thank you I'll have that"
"Tank yuu! Yo oda will bee there soon"
I hung up and said out-loud "what in the world, did I just order"
I walked upstairs and decided to take a shower and get ready, for Eli of course.
Eli POV
Eli-gold49 signed off at 5:45pm
I love bugging Clare, she hates it when I don't give her the chance to answer. I got off of the computer then decided I needed to get ready. I went over to my closet and pulled out some clothes then hopped in the shower. I got out and got dressed and packed up everything I would need to spend a few days over there. It was only 6:12 pm, I decided to surprise Clare a bit earlier. I got into Morty and drove to her house. I pulled up to her driveway and noticed it was barely 6:23pm "She's gonna kill me" I said to myself.
I turned the knob and realized it was open, so I let myself in. I heard her coming downstairs so I quickly hid behind a bookshelf. I put my phone on silence and decided to text her.
Eli: Clare I'm on my way :)
Clare: I thought you weren't coming until 7:30?
Eli: I decided to go sooner, I'll be there asap!
Clare: Eliiiii! Ugh fine.
I walked up behind her and grabbed her around the waist and said
"I thought you would be happy to see me sooner"
she screamed "Eliiii!, you scared me!"
I laughed then gave her a hug "I'm sorry Clare, I just couldn't wait to see you."
She returned the hug then said "I forgive you" Then gave me a kiss on the cheek.
"Sooo, where should I put my bags?" I smirked while pulling out my bags
she laughed "wow Eli, did you pack your whole closet"
I laughed
"You can put them up here in my room" She walked upstairs and I followed. We got into her room and I set my things in a corner then sat next to her on the bed.
"Soooo Eli, what should we do?"
"What do you wanna do clare?"
"Well, I ordered Chinese food…..dont ask what I got because I don't even know" She laughed "it should be here soon"
As soon as she finished speaking the door rang. We ran down stairs to get the food.
Clare POV
I opened the door, and there stood 3 delivery boys with holding huge bags of Chinese food. Me and Eli looked at each other then I spoke.
"Excuse me sir, what exactly did I order"
He looked at me confused then spoke "You ordered the family special which feeds 12 people
I laughed "wow, that's a huge family…..ok how much do I owe you?"
He looked at me confused then spoke "it's gonna be $87.98"
I handed him my card and he charged it then we walked inside carrying the food. Eli had to make 2 trips to get all of it.
"Clare, this is a lot of food…..what are we gonna do with it all?"
"Maybe we should invite some friends over to celebrate my first day alone. I spoke enthusiastically
Eli nodded then said, "I'll go call Adam and Drew, You can call Alli and Fiona"
I nodded then went to call them. I called Alli first.
Ring…..ring….ring…
"Hi Clare! What's up!"
"Alli! Hey! Listen, I'm having a little party to celebrate my first day at home a lone, I was wondering if you wanna come"
She stayed quiet a bit then answered
"Clare! I would love to!...but, can I take Jenna? She's kinda here…..and um…."
I cut her off and spoke "It's ok Alli, you can bring her"
She squealed then I hung up. I decided to Call Fiona Next.
Ring….ring….ring…..ring….
"Hey Clare, whats up?"
"Hey Fi! I'm having a little party to celebrate my first day home alone, would you like to join us?"
"Im so there! See you in a bit Clare!"
I laughed then walked over to the couch and Eli asked me if drew could bring his friend that was already spending the knight at his house and I nodded.
Eli POV
I picked up my phone and dialed Adam
Ring…
"Hey there emo boy! What's up!"
I laughed
"The usual you know, cutting wrists ect…"
He laughed then I said
"Were having a little kick-back at Clares house, you in?"
He answered immediately
"I'm in!
"Ask Drew if he's in"
"Ok give me a minute"
He came back and spoke
"He wants to know if he can bring his friend, because he was already gonna sleep over"
"Hmm Let me as Clare"
I asked, and she seemed ok with it.
"Yeah it's totally cool! See you guys in a bit!"
I hung up and walked over to the kitchen and helped Clare set up a bit around. We laid the food out on the table, and connected my ipod to some speakers then moved the table out of the way. As soon as we finished setting up the door bell rang. We walked over and Clare opened it.
"Hi Clare!" Alli Fiona and some blond girl squealed and hugged her. Then they turned to me and waved.
The blond girl looked at me and put out her hand and said
"Nice to meet you, I'm Jenna" She was giving me a big creepy smile
I smiled then shook her hand and said "Eli"
She then continued as we walked into the living room "Is that short for anything, what's your last name?"
I turned to her smiled awkwardly. I was about to answer when the bell rang and I went to get it.
"Be right back" I said as I rushed to the door to get away from that girl as fast as I could.
"Hey Eli!" then made his way into the living room
"Eli! My man what's up!" drew spoke as we pounded fists.
He pointed to the guy next to him and said "This is my friend, KC. Were on the football team together"
KC looked at me and smile shyly then said "hey"
I pounded his fist then said "nice to meet you man" then we made our way into the living room.
As soon as we walked in there was some silence in the room, and if I didn't know any better a bit of tension. I ignored it and pointed at the food and said "Dig in guys!"
Clare POV
I can't believe the guy Drew invited was KC! I have never told Eli about KC or Adam…..so I'm sure Drew had no idea. We all got food and ate in silence. I felt so awkward being in the same room with My Boyfriend, my ex boyfriend, and the girl who took my ex boyfriend. We finished eating then we all went back into the living room and sat on the floor.
Alli broke the silence and started speaking "OK GUYS! Wake up!...lets play a game or something!"
"Like what" We all said in unison.
She grinned then spoke "How about Never have I ever?"
All the guys high fived each other, and agreed. Us girls just laughed.
I was a little nervous, playing a game such as this but I agreed anyways.
"I'll start!" Alli spoke
"Never have I ever smoked Pot"
Eli took off his jacket and I looked at him.
He looked at us and raised his hands and said "I used to smoke, I stopped"
I decided to question him later and continued the game.
It was my turn. "Never have I ever drank liquor"
Fiona, Eli, Alli and KC all took off something.
Eli's turn "Never have I ever cheated on someone"
Drew, Jenna and KC all took something off.
Adams turn "Never have I ever French Kissed anybody"
Me, Eli, Alli, Drew, Fiona, Jenna and KC all took something off.
Adam blushed then KC spoke
"Wait! Clare, Who have you French kissed!"
Adam, Eli and Drew all looked at him confused.'
I just spoke "None of your business, lets continue"
Fiona's turn "Never have I ever sexted"
Alli and Jenna took something off.
Drews turn "Never have I ever been on a roadtrip"
Nobody took anything off.
Jenna's turn "Never have I ever wanted someone in this room so bad"
She took off her Hair clip seductively looking directly at Eli! I can't believe she was going after another one of my boyfriends!
Eli then took off his necklace paying no attention to her and I took off my purity ring and KC smiled at me as he took off his shirt leaving him only in a muscle shirt. Fiona and Adam also took off something.
It was now KC's turn "Never have I ever been so exited to be here" He then looked at me and grinned
He then took off his Muscle shirt, Drew And Eli also took off their shirts leaving all 3 boys chests exposed me Alli Fiona and Jenna all took off our shirts leaving us in tank tops and Adam took off his beanie.
Eli POV
"Ok! Lets not stop here! Let's keep it going! Lets play…Truth or dare!" alli suggested.
We all nodded
She then began "Eli! Truth or dare!"
"Truth" I smirked
she looked as if she was thinking then spoke "Are you a Virgin?"
"No" I spoke calmly
Jenna smiled at me and winked….i just looked away and turned to adam
"Truth or dare machismo"
Adam hesitated and looked at me and said "D-Dare?"
I smirked then said "I dare you too talk in your best Beavis From and Butthead impersonation for the rest of the game"
"awww really Eli!" he whined
I laughed and spoke "I don't hear Beavis"
"Fine haha haha haha" He replied in the voice
We all laughed
"truth or dare Drew" hard to keep a straight face with his silly voice
"Dare" Drew Spoke
He then turned to Drew and said (still in his Beavis voice) "Drew haha I dare you too haha pretend you're a flirty girl for the rest of the game haha haha"
Drew cracked up then said in a girl voice and exaggerated hand movements "ok then…KC you hottie truth or Dare" he said as he sat closer to KC
KC laughed and said "Truth"
"Ok then hot stuff ummmm who is your Crush? It better be me" Drew smile in what he thought was a flirty smile…..it was more creepy.
KC looked around nervously then spoke "I umm….i actually have a thing…well more like I umm…" He paused then the next words rushed out of his mouth "I like Clare"
Everybody looked at him wide eyed then he said
"Ok well let's continue, Clare truth or dare"
Clare smiled and said "T-Truth"
"Do you have feelings for me?"
I looked over at Clare and she quickly spoke "No"
Then she looked at Jenna and said "Truth or Dare"
Jenna smiled big and said "Dare"
Clare smiled big and said "I dare you to slap yourself every time somebody says i for the rest of the game"
Everyone laughed and she nodded
She Then looked over at me and said "Eli Truth or Dare"
I look at her and say "Dare"
She smiled big and said " I (Slaps Herself) dare you to make-out with any girl you want right now" She then winked at me
I immediately said "I will accept you're dare" (She slapped herself)
I then turned to Clare cupped her face in my hands and gave her a long and passionate kiss. When I pulled apart I noticed Jenna's and KC's shocked faces.
KC then glared at me and turned to Clare.
"Clare! Don't let him kiss you!" He yelled
Clare looked at him and said "You can't tell me who to kiss!"
I quickly spoke "It's none of your business who she kisses anyways"
He glared ad me and said "it is my business!"
"Oh yeah, enlighten us" I spoke coldly
He looked over at Clare and said "She happens to be my Ex-Girlfriend…..and I (Jenna slaps herself) was a fool for letting her leave…..I (Jenna slaps herself) want another chance"
I laughed hysterically and he just glared "Well, I happen to be her BOYFRIEND! And unlike you, I wont let her slip"
Clare finally Spoke "Guys! Stop!...Listen KC you had your chance you really hurt me…..i'm with Eli now, and I (Jenna slaps herself) really like him, Please just….Just move on don't bring this up anymore let's all enjoy the rest of the night"
The game ended and everyone was silent….it was awkward silence until Adam saved the day.
"Guys!" Adam Spoke up enthusiastically
"I have a great idea! You know how when we played earlier and Drew said he has never been on a road trip and no one took anything off….Well…..Maybe, we should all go on a mini Road trip! What do you guys say"
Alli squealed then said "OMG ADAM! That's a great idea!"
"Who's in!" Adam asked
Everyone cheered and nodded except me and Clare. Adam Then looked at me and said.
"Come on guys! Let's have an adventure!"
I looked at Clare and she nodded then I said "Well, I'm the only one that drives so….i guess it's up to me…." I gave a dramatic paused and everyone looked at me anxiously. "Alright I'm in" I spoke then everyone cheered
We all started throwing in ideas about where we should go and what adventures we should do, to be honest I was very exited to go on this road trip….but I was a little ticked off that Jenna and KC were coming a long. Not to long after KC, Jenna, Alli, Fiona, Adam & Drew all left home. Me and Clare went up stairs she walked into the restroom and came out in pj's and got under her covers and patted the spot in the bed next to her. I realized I left my bag with my PJs in Morty so I went outside to get it.
"I'll be right back Clare, I Forgot my Pj bag in Morty"
She smiled and nodded.
I went outside and went into Morty to look for my bag. i spotted it and just as I was about to pick it up I heard voices.
"Hey guys come on leave me alone" A shaky but familiar voice spoke
"We're bored and the gym is closed, so we need to use you as a punching bag" a deep voice spoke.
I then hear the shaky voice " OW! AHHH! HELP! STOP! AHH!" I walked around I walked to the side walk and I saw two guys beating up…..Fitz? yup it was definitely Fitz. I then saw them throw him in the alley. I could hear Fitz pleading for them to stop.
I contemplated with myself…."should I help him…..he deserves it after what he pulled in vegas night!…..but he's getting hurt…..ugh! I hope I don't regret this"
I ran to Morty pulled something out from under the seat and ran towards the alley…..
I cant believe I'm about to help Fitz.
