Eli's POV:
I'm happy with my life right now. After Adam got shot at prom, he was released two days after and ever since he was, he and I would hang out more than before when I was struggling with my bipolar disorder. Sometimes, Clare would also hang out with us. Even though Clare is with Jake now, I still can't get her out of my head and heart. I know I told Fiona before I was over it but to be honest; I could never get over Clare Edwards. After Julia's death during my sophomore year, I never thought I can love someone else like how I loved Julia but Clare proved me wrong. She was the first girl I dated after Julia and I was happy. After our break up, I finally realized that Clare was right about me being manipulated. I'm really glad I got help after our break up, but Imogen sort of ruined that. With her taking my pills away from me, it did help me write me Love Roulette but during that dark time, I hurt everyone and I felt so bad after. But that's all in the past now since everyone forgave me. School started again last week and currently, me and Adam are outside eating our lunches. We were starting to talk about Dead Hand when we noticed Fiona running towards us. "Hey guys, have either of you seen Clare?"
"Uhh…no, why?" asked Adam.
"Didn't you hear?"
"Hear what?" I asked with confusion.
"Clare and Jake broke up this morning."
"What?" I said with some shock. I thought they were getting along ever since the week before school at Jake's cabin.
"Yeah. I guess Clare wanted to take their relationship to the next level as in sex but Jake rejected her. She got so pissed at him and she ended their relationship this morning."
"Wow", was all I said. I mean I remember when Clare threw herself at me during her parents divorce, I wanted to but I know how much she's saving herself so that's why I rejected. Anyways, I can't believe she almost did it again. "Wait how do you know this, Fiona?" asked Adam.
"Well, I was walking to my locker when I passed by Clare and I noticed that her eyes were red. So I went up to her and asked what's wrong with her then she told me what happened between her and Jake. I was about to sorry when the bell ringed and she walked away from me. Now I can't find her anywhere."
"I might have an idea", I said towards Fiona. I know where exactly Clare goes when she's upset about something. "Follow me." Both Fiona and Adam looked at me like I was crazy but they stilled followed me. "Where are we going?" asked Fiona.
"The church."
"What church?" I forgot that Fiona never went to the secret party Adam threw for her.
"The church I threw a party for you but you never came", Adam replied clamed. I looked over my shoulder and saw Adam with his head down while Fiona had a guilty look. We stayed silent the entire walk to the church. As we walked up to the fence, I could easily see Clare sitting on the broken walls with her head in her hands. It hurts to see her like this knowing she is sensitive. All three of us walked towards Clare when Fiona said, "Clare?"
Clare looked up at us with bloodshot eyes and wiped away the tears coming down with the back of her hand. "Adam? Fiona? Eli? What are you guys doing here?"
"Fiona told us what happened between you and Jake", I replied while looking at her, "we wanted to see how you're holding up."
She sniffled before responding to me, "I guess I've been better. But I guess I was stupid enough to try and make a relationship work with my step-brother." She laughed a little and I was happy to see her laugh. Fiona walked over to her and sat next to her while putting an arm around her shoulder. "You don't need Jake anyways. Just remember you've got Adam, me, and Eli." Clare looked up at Fiona and gave her a smile, "Thanks, Fiona." They got up and walked towards me and Adam. "So, is there any chance that you guys want to skip the rest of the day with me since lunch is over?" Clare asked us with hope hanging at the end of her question. "Sure", answered Adam. Clare smiled and said, "Where do you guys want to go?"
"How about we go back to me apartment and watch a movie?" asked Fiona.
"That sounds good", I replied when Adam and Clare both said 'sure'. As we walked to Fiona's apartment, which wasn't far from the school, Clare and I started talking. "So Eli, how are you?"
"I'm good. I've been busy."
"Busy?"
"Yeah, my therapist told me I should be more active so I've been jogging everyday since summer."
"Cool. Can I ask you something?" she sounded hesitant.
"Sure."
"Are you going out with…..Imogen?" I looked over at her before replying.
"Yeah, we started going out three days ago." After Imogen forgave me for hurting her feelings during Love Roulette, we became friends along with her and Fiona became friends also. Then last week while she and Fiona were working on a project, Imogen told Fiona she still had feelings for me. Later, Fiona and I talked about my feelings for Imogen and before I knew it, Fiona tried setting us up on date but that ended badly since Imogen didn't know. After that happened, the next day me and Imogen talked it over and decided we should go out since we have feelings for each other. I'm still confused about the way Fiona reacted when we told her we were going on a date.
"Oh. I'm happy for you. I heard Imogen was a nice person."
"Yeah, she's a kind and creative person." I smiled towards and when I looked up, I then realized that we finally arrived at Fiona's apartment. "Shall we?" I asked Clare while opening the door for her. "Yes." Then she walked in
So...what did you think? Did I do a good a comeback or a bad one? Please review and be honest^-^ 10 reviews before chapter 2 is up and have you guys been watching Degrassi? I can't believe Imogen and Eli are going out and although they look cute, Imogen still creeps me out espically in the begining of Need You Now pt.1 Although I'm still an Eclare fan3 anyways until chapter 2-NamilovesDegrassi98
