This will be a series I promise. Written for my best friend Sam: MY SOUL TWIN! Now, I want you all to know that I should be doing my English assignment, but I wrote this because I got the idea and didn't want to lose it. I hope you all enjoy this and ALERT me because THERE WILL BE MORE! ENJOY!

I don't own Degrassi...but I do own my mind, which is a wonderful thing.

"What do you want to do today?" Clare asked Eli. He shrugged. She sighed. "Come on. We are two able-bodied teenagers with access to a car and the entire day ahead of us! Let's do something!"

Eli looked down at the girl lying in his arms and smiled. "Well I know what I want to do today…" he began, trailing off suggestively. She scoffed and sat up, retreating from his body to stand up.

"Think, Eli. Is there something you want to do that you've never done before?"

He looked mildly thoughtful for a moment before smirking. "I want to ride a rollercoaster."

Clare had to admit she'd been caught off guard. "Rollercoaster?"

He nodded. "I've never ridden a roller coaster before."

Her eyes opened wide and a large smile captured her lips. "So you're a rollercoaster virgin?"

Eli searched for a way to make her re-phrase that. "Well—I, uh…"

Clare cracked up laughing, excited. "Oh my God, it would figure. The man I very well may love is a rollercoaster virgin." Her expression sobered and she regarded him with solemn eyes. "Eli, I cannot be with a man who has never ridden a rollercoaster. I'm sorry."

She turned to leave, a hidden smile on her face, when she was stopped by a hand on her arm. Eli turned her to him and, before she had time to think, pressed his lips to hers, pushing her back against the closed door to his room, her body hitting the Vampire Weekend poster and crumpling it slightly. Her arms instinctively pressed against the wall by her head, the product of fifteen years with no intimate contact. She didn't know what she was supposed to do when Eli kissed her. She always felt inexperienced and young.

He pulled back and licked his bottom lip slowly, sensually, making Clare go weak at the knees, her eyes closing half-way as she watched him. He grabbed her arm and pulled her to him, slamming the door open and dragging her out of the house, down the stairs, and to his car, hell-bent on loosing this rollercoaster "virginity."


As they rode to the theme park Eli ranted, partially under his breath, partially to Clare, about the ridiculousness of what she'd said. "I haven't been a virgin since I turned thirteen, THIRTEEN! This is ridiculous. What the hell. I've never even heard of "rollercoaster virginity." Who made that up? You? Good job, Clare. We need to get to this theme park soon so that I can lose my "virginity." HA! Haven't been a virgin for three years…" He trailed off, talking so low Clare couldn't hear a word he said. But she had to admit, the reaction he had to her made her laugh so incredibly hard it made her eyes water.

They got to the theme park, paid their ticket, and walked inside. Eli, wanting to "lose his virginity quickly," his words, not Clare's, charged forward to the first rollercoaster he saw. Clare shook her head and protested, grabbing his arm and pulling him in the opposite direction. "If you're going to do this, you're going to do it right. Let's make your first time mind-blowing." Somehow, the way she said that made Eli hot with desire.

As he stood there, staring up at the tall metal structure above him, he grabbed Clare's hand tightly. She laughed. "Relax Eli, it's perfectly safe, Final Destination is just a fallacy."

Eli laughed and tilted his head to look at Clare. "If I die I'm going to haunt you until you admit that Final Destination is partially truth."

She shook her head. "Whatever."


They were at the top of the first hill in the first seat of the car. Eli mirrored Clare and threw his hands in the air. "Are you ready?" Clare shouted at him.

Just as they were tipping over the edge Eli called back, "I think SOOOOOOO!"

What followed was a series of laughs, girlish screams, and bruises from one person whacking another. When they stepped off of the ride Clare had to sit down from laughing so hard. Eli stood over her, glaring, but the glare quickly softened into a smirk held only for Clare. "Come on, get up, it wasn't that funny."

Clare took Eli's hand and, with thirty pairs of eyes watching, led Eli down the ramp and to a bench outside the entrance to the attraction. "So how does it feel to be de-rollercoaster-virginized?"

Eli laughed and shook his head. "It feels great; better than I thought it would." As they sat there, Eli got an idea. "Say, Clare, if you could do any one thing today that you've never done before what would it be?"

Clare, suspicious, narrowed her eyes at Eli. "Why…?"

"Well…I lost some "virginity" today, and I think it's only fair that you lose something too."

Clare thought. "Well…I've always wanted to ride on a Ferris wheel."

Eli started. "You've never ridden on a Ferris wheel? Clare, I don't know if I could be with a woman who has never ridden a—"

"Alright, alright, I get your point: to the Ferris wheel we go."


She sat across from, holding onto the cage that surrounded the car. Eli smirked at her all the way to the top, inching closer and closer to the edge of his seat. When they reached the very top Eli pulled Clare to him and kissed her softly, pulling her across the aisle to sit on his lap. She felt shy and awkward, pressed against him in a new way, but he didn't seem to mind. One of his hands wrapped around her waist, anchoring her in place. The other twinned in her hair, pulling her mind upwards to the attention Eli was giving her mouth and neck.

"Eli," she squeaked out when he bit her neck. His teeth grazed her heated skin and she squirmed against his legs, unused to the contact. He pulled back and increased the pressure in his hands against her body, holding her still. "Clare, you don't want to squirm like that," he said, his eyes black with desire.

She pulled back and retreated to the other side of the car, wanting to be out and on the ground so she didn't have to feel so awkward, so embarrassed.


They hadn't stayed very long after the Ferris wheel fiasco. Eli drove back to his house, cooked dinner, and watched Clare as she ate in silence. When the two were finished with their grilled cheese sandwiches Clare retreated up the stairs to his bedroom, curling up in his sheets and closing her eyes, trying to pretend the second part of that day hadn't happened.

She heard him walk in but ignored him. When she felt him sit on the bed behind her she didn't look up at him. "Clare," he said, trying to get her to look at him, but to no avail. He sighed and shrugged, leaning down and pulling her exposed ear between his teeth. Clare moaned loudly into the sheets and turned to stare up at Eli through half-lidded eyes. "There you are," he said, smiling.

She smiled. "Here I am."

He bent down and pressed his lips to hers, pinning her to the bed and forcing her into submission. Clare, as was her custom, followed Eli, completely ignorant to anything he was doing with his body, anything he was silently asking her to do with her body.

She pulled back and looked at him. "What's the matter?" he asked.

She looked away from his face. "I feel so awkward when I kiss you. I'm so inexperienced that I feel so young when we're intimate, so innocent."

"Well, why is that a bad thing?"

Clare threw her hands in the ear, nearly taking one of Eli's eyes out. "Because it reminds me of my miserable life before you! It reminds me that I don't know anything about intimacy! And it scares me, not knowing, makes me feel sub-par, insufficient, like you'll up and leave me because I can't fulfill your needs."

Eli forced her arms onto the bed and stared into her eyes. "If you're so desperate to lose your innocence, I'm more than willing to help with that, but slowly. I'm not going to take you right here, right now."

He pressed his lips to hers again. "And I'll teach you. Slowly you'll lose your "innocent" virginity. I'll take every first from you, until all that's left is the most important first of all. And when I'm done with you, you'll be begging me to take you."

A chill ran up Clare's spine at his promises. He leaned down and hovered above her lips. "Lesson One."

YOU ALL HATE ME BUT THAT'S ALRIGHT CAUSE I'M EXCITED! The ensuing story will be pleasantly Eclare filled...ALERT and find out what happens next!

Good? Bad? A bit rocky in the middle but recovered at the end? LET ME KNOW PLEASE!
