Hi! It's finally here, I'm so excited. I've been working on thoughts and ideas for this story for months so I can't wait to share it with you guys.

P.S: HAVE YOU HEARD MAROON 5's NEW SONG "It was Always You"? IF YOU HAVENT YOU BETTER BECAUSE IT GIVES ME SO MUCH CRELLIE FEELS I JUST-

Ok, I'll stop before I go on a long rant about songs I think are specifically made for crellie. So here it is people of fanfiction, I present to you: Summer Secrets.

Ellie's Pov:

"Ok El, Panic! At the Disco or Green Day?" Craig asked, rasing his eyebrow slightly. Hmmm, this was a tough one.

"Really Craig? You know I love both of them."

"Exactly. I'm an evil genius, Mwahaha!" Craig tapped his fingers together as if he were conspiring to destroy the planet. I laughed shaking my head.

"You are such a dork."

"Hey, you have no room to talk Ms. Flash animation!"

"One: I'm don't even have a job doing that, it's a hobby, and two: what do you have against smart technical people?"

"One: It's probably worse that you do it for fun, and two: shall I say NERD ALERT, NERD ALERT! Eleanor Nash is secretly a nerd." Craig smirked as I glared hard at him.

"Whatever, I am so not a nerd. And don't call me Eleanor."

"Oh you so are Eleanor." I picked up a pillow and smacked his face, making him fall off the couch smacking his head against his guitar.

"Ow, Ellie." He whined while rubbing the back of his head.

"That's what you get." I shrugged smirking. He playfully rolled his eyes and sat up grabbing his guitar. I sat back watching him as he started strumming random tunes. I smiled slightly, it was moments like these were I enjoyed myself the most, just hanging out with Craig. It all started the summer after junior year.

Ashley had left for London, Marco was in Africa, and with Sean out of the picture, there wasn't much of a selection of friends to choose from to hang out with. Craig and I had been going to group together for a few months, learning more and more about the other, so I guess it was just natural that we would want to hang out together.

He walked up to me one day after group as I was about to walk home.

"Hi Ellie." I stopped as he stood in front of me. For me it was a bit weird because while we had hung out with our friends during school, we hadn't really hung out alone together and I didn't really consider us friends.

"Hey. Is something wrong? Do you need anything?"

"No no, nothing's wrong, nor do I need something. I just wanted to talk." My eyebrow rose and I glared slightly.

"Why?" I asked slowly. It was just a weird situation for me.

"Well, I heard what you said in group today, about still being upset that Sean left. I know that when Ash left I was heartbroken so I just wanted to see how you are. Honestly I still miss Ashley more than I should. I don't really know were we stand relationship wise so...I feel your pain." I was about to shoot off that he doesn't really feel my pain because at least he still has a chance at a relationship, while I know Sean and I are over. But looking at his hopeful face I couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Thanks Craig, it means a lot, it really does." He smiled back and I suddenly felt my cheeks heat up. What was going on with me?!

"Well I'll see ya around Craig." I turned back around and started walking again.

"Wait!" He called out. I looked over my shoulder.

"Are you doing anything tomorrow?" Was he really about to ask me out? A mixture of feelings fluttered into my stomach.

"Uh no...why?"

"Well we should hang out...or something." The slight awkwardness made it all the more reason for me to chuckle at him.

"I think that sounds...good." I nodded. I swear I could see his eyes light up slightly, but it was probably just from the sun.

"Good, that's...good. I'll see you tomorrow Ellie."

"Ok." I finished, turning back around, knowing that when I got home why mom would be curious as to why I had the biggest smile on my face.

After that day Craig and I were inseparable. We found out we had way more in common than just issues with ourselves and peers. We had hung out every single day, even the day I had strangely gotten sick. He came over and we ate soup and watched That 70's Show until Joey called him home.

And through all of this, I had developed something terrible. Such a horribly betraying and scary feeling and I just couldn't figure out what it was. I had found this out while watching Craig play guitar. How smooth his hands moved across the strings, how he bit his lip slightly while consecrating on the song, how chills overtook my entire body when his eyes closed gently as his vocal chords sang out softly. I had been in a trance, complete awe of how flawless he seemed in these moments. And finally I realized what that feeling was.

It was love.

So, what do you think? The next chapter will be longer and way more dramatic ;)
