ELI'S POV

She drove him crazy. They way she walked was perfect. The way she talked was perfect. Her beautiful Blue Eyes were perfect. Everything about her was perfect. He wanted to tell her that, but he couldn't. She wasn't speaking to him and he could only remember the last time she did.

*Flashback*

At The Dot

"Eli, you haven't touched your food."

He had spaced out.

"Huh, Clare had you said something."

"Yeah I said I was just leaving."

Clare got up. He was confused. He didn't know why she wanted to leave. He didn't want her to leave.

"Why are you leaving. I thought you were having a great time."

"No Eli, you were having a great time, lost in your thoughts."

She stormed out crying. It had been raining hard, and she was going to walk home.

Eli followed her. "Clare, at least let me drive you home."

Clare kept walking. She had hoped that he would just leave her alone.

He cared too much for her. He pulled her by the wrists and turned her around, just like he did when they skipped English class.

"Eli I need some time to think. I'll call you, k."

He was hopeless, he just let the girl he loved walk away without a word.

*End of Flashback*

She never did call back. Eli saw her in English and tried to talk to her. He tried to talk to her at lunch, and no words were said. He sent texts, emails, and IM'S she never responded. He wondered how something so perfect could just slip right through hi hands.

CLARE'S POV

I knew she meant a lot to him, but he said that I did too. Julia would always be apart of him, but she felt he should have remembered their five month anniversary I wasn't going to talk to him, I'm not even sure if he knew why I wasn't talking to him. I never gave him the chance. I remember that day that I had last spoken to him, and I don't think I could forget.

*Flashback*

I took Eli out to dinner. I wore my pearl dress with my black belt around my waist. I even wore my heels that I only wore for special occasions. I had done my make-up perfectly to match my outfit and to frame my beautiful face.

Eli wore a tie and black skinny jeans, the same attire he had worn on our first date. There were roses in the middle of the table to make the evening special.

I hoped Eli knew why I had been happy, and I dressed beautiful. He had seemed out in some sort of a daze.

"Eli, you haven't touched your food." I asked him.

He wasn't paying attention. "Huh, Clare had you said something."

I was now upset." Yeah I said I was just leaving."

Clare got up. She was angry. She had to leave.

"Why are you leaving. I thought you were having a great time."

"No Eli, you were having a great time, lost in your thoughts." She yelled, surprising herself

Then I felt tears in my eyes. It had been raining hard, but I just needed to get out of there.

Eli followed her. "Clare, at least let me drive you home."

I kept walking. I had hoped would just leave.

He pulled me by the wrists, but I just tried not to make eye contact.

"Eli I need some time to think. I'll call you, k."

She was hopeless. The boy she loved didn't love her back.

*End of Flashback*

They were both left with distance hearts.
