CLARE'S POV

His smirk. His hair. His Green Eyes. He was just so charming. When I saw him my heart jumped out of my chest. We flirted, but we 'danced around each other' like Adam had said. Adam was tired of me talking about Eli, so he convinced me to say something.

I didn't know how I was going to do this. I knew I had to do this soon because I couldn't hold it in any more. We were at my house doing an assignment, and I just had to speak up.

"Eli."

He turned his head toward me, and looked up at me. "Yes, Blue Eyes."

"I like you."

He smirked. "I like you too, you're a really good friend."

I sighed. "No, Eli you don't get it. I like you. I mean I actually like you."

"Oh." Then he left.
