She was lying in her bed staring at the ceiling when a sharp pain intrupted her thoughts. She rubbed her knee to try and ease the pain that was growing."Ow seriously I can't have my own thoughts without you intrupting me." She muttered under her reached over to her nightstand and grabbed the bottle that was sitting on top of it's smooth wooden surface. She took the amount she needed and swallowed hard with a gulp of hated taking them because they always left the most vile taste in her put the bottle back on her nightstand and tried to get comfortable She heard a knock on her door."It's open mom come in." She heard the doorknob turn and saw her mom come in with a worried look on her face.
"Clare sweetie, How are you feeling?" Her mother said as she sat down on the bed. Clare rolled her eyes at her worried mother."Mom I'm fine just a little bit of pain in my knee no big deal I took my meds I'll be fine." She tried to give her mom a reassurring didn't know whether or not to believe her but she knows it's a day at a time kind of thing with her."Okay sweetheart sweet dreams call me if you need anything." She smiled at clare and Kissed her forehead before leaving to go to her own room. "Night mom will do." Clare smiled through the pain and she watched her mother shut her door again.
She felt her eyes slowly getting heavy and she knew she needed to get some sleep she had to go back to school got under her warm comforter and turned off her lamp she slowly drifted off to got an intense throbbing pain in front just above her eye and it radiated from there to the back of her head. She sat up in her bed holding her head rocking back and forth trying to make it didn't want to call for her mom she didn't want her to worry."Stop please I need to sleep I have school." She whispered to no one really. She looked at her alarm clock it blinded her in the dark room it read 3:00 A.M. She didn't want to take anything for her headache hoping it would disappear on it's own and an hour later it did and she went back to sleep.
The Next day [in the morning]
Clare woke up when her alarm went off she rubbed her blue eyes free of let out a yawn she got out of her bed a little shaky at first but she got her ground and walked to her dresser to get out a light pink tunic and a pair of dark washed skinny carried them into the bathroom with turned on the hot water and just let the water run down her body for a while before actually washing got out and dried herself off and got she was done she went downstairs to the kitchen where she was greeted by her mother making pancakes."Morning Mom." She smiled as she took a seat at the table. "Morning did you sleep?" Her mother smiled as she flipped the pancake. "Okay I woke up with a headache around 3 though." Helen turned her attention to her daughter and gave her a Why-didn't -you-wake-me-look. "I didn't want you to worry mom." She said reading her moms' thoughts."Clare your my daughter it's my job to worry about you especially with your condition." Clare rolled her eyes."Mom I'm fine I know my body. Okay?" Helen looked at her but nodded once and gave her the two pancakes she had fixed for breakfast."Okay eat up and take your meds young lady then off to school." Clare nodded and cut up her pancakes and put syrup on them before taking a bite."Yes mother." she smiled sarcastically. Helen didn't catch on. When Clare had finished eating she took all of her meds she needed at the time she then kissed her mom goodbye on her cheek."Bye mom see you after school." She smiled and walked to the front door."You took all of your meds? You have everything you need during the day?" Clare smiled."Yes and check Mom I'll be fine stop worrying the school knows everything." And with that she walked out the door and headed towards the bus stop.
Clare looked up at the sky as she walked it was a beautiful sunny day in Toronto which was rare for the time of felt good today which made her happy she didn't need anything to get in the way of her first day back since she got reached the bus stop and waited for the bus which arrived a few short minutes after she did. She got on and enjoyed the ride to Degrassi it was a short ride so she arrived quickly and got off the waited outside for Alli and waved when she saw them coming towards her."CLARE! " Squealed Alli as she ran over in her pink heels to give Clare a big hug."Hey Clare." Said Adam in a normal voice."Hi guys I missed seeing your faces." Clare smiled as she looked at her friends. Alli was still hugging her in a side hug now she must have missed Clare just as much as Clare missed her if not giggled at the sight of her friends she was happy to be back."So how you feeling?" Adam said looking at the two girls hugging."I'm feeling okay I'll let you know if I need anything Adam I promise." She smiled but bites the inside of her cheek."Lets get going we don't need to be late for period one." Adam linked his arm with hers to make sure she was steady he didn't need her to fall down in front of everyone."Adam is this really nessacary?" Clare said looking down at their arms. "I don't want you to fall." Clare shakes her head lightly but doesn't disagree with made it to first period on time and she took her usal seat beside bell rang and the teacher started talking when Clare felt sleepy she laid her head down on the desk listening to the teacher felt her eyes close but she couldn't help it she was just so tired She felt someone shaking her she woke up with a start."Clare?" Clare looked at who woke her up it was Adam."Did I fall asleep?" She looked around the classroom it was empty except for her and her friend."Yeah you sure your feeling okay? Do I need to take you to the nurse?" He looked at her with his blue eyes meeting hers."No I-I'm fine Adam just a little tired." He raised his eyebrow at her."What? I'm fine stop worrying so much please I just want to be normal." She looked at him."Help me up please?" He put out his hand for her to grab she grabs his hand and gets up slowly."You need to take things easy Clare." She gives him a death glare."Yes Mom." She says sarcastically as they walk to their next period.
"I got to go to the bathroom be right back." He lets go of my hand and I walk to the girls room.I didn't really need to go I just needed a breather.I walk to the mirrors and look at myself." You are okay no matter what they say." I whisper to myself out loud. I take a deep breath and look one more time and turn to leave the restroom.I wasn't paying attention walking I bumped into someone."S-sorry I'm so sorry I wasn't paying attention." I look at the person."You have pretty eyes." That's all he said and I felt a blush creep onto my left and I stood there for a minute before going to find Adam. He must of noticed my face was red."Clare what happened?" I look at him with a confused smile."I bumped into some guy and all he said was"you have pretty eyes" to me." He looks at me as we reach our next class."Wow that's so weird." He says as we take our seats. I see the boy I bumped into come in the classroom I blush deep looks over at me."Is that the guy?" I nod with a smile on my face."That's the new kid I think his name is Eli Goldsworthy." He looks at me staring at the boy. The teacher tells him to introduce himself. "Hi I'm Eli Goldsworthy." He says with a smirk on his face."Mr. Goldsworthy take a seat beside Clare raise your hand please." I put my left hand in the air as he comes to sit on my right side. Adam shoots me a look and I shoot him one back and mouth "You were right about his name." Eli finally sits down and he leans over to me."It's okay your forgiven about bumping into me Edwards." I look at him with a shy smile."uh thanks I think Goldsworthy." I sit my attention to the teacher. The bell rang for Lunch I get up to leave the classroom but I feel a hand grab my arm. I turn around to see Eli holding my arm."Can I help you?" I asked him with a raised eyebrow."sit with me at Lunch Edwards." He smirks at me and I see his strikingly green eyes for the first time."Only if my friends can too." I look at him with my eyes narrowed." not?" He then proceeds to leave the classroom and I go to find Adam and Alli. "Adam!" I yell through the crowded hallway I see him standing by his locker with Alli beside usally stood there so if we got spilt up I could find him."Clare over here!" He shouted at me.I finally reached his side."we have been invited to sit with that Goldsworthy kid for lunch." He looks at me a little unsure of my statement." You sure you want to?" I nod and smile at him."Besides I'll have you two with me incase anything happens." Alli smiles and shurgs her shoulders."Sure why not Adam? What could it hurt?" She looks at me then at exchanges his glances between me and her."Okay I guess let's go I'm starving." The two girls laugh at him and Link arms as they head to the lunch room."You sit Clare I'll go get your lunch." Adam smiled as he made her sit once they found Eli sitting at a table."Thanks Adam." Once Adam left earshot Eli looked at Clare."What's that all about?" Clare blushed lightly."Nothing he just likes to do things for me." She smiles."Why did you ask me to eat lunch with you?" He looks up at her and shrugs."Why not?" He smirks with sarcasitsm She shakes her and Alli come to the table Adam gives Clare her food and sits down beside her."So Eli is it?" He looks at looks up and acknowledges Adam's question."Yeah Adam It's Eli."Alli just sat there staring between bites she could tell Clare kinda had feelings for Eli."Wow guys it's just lunch chill out."

She smiles and gets up to walk with Clare."Thanks Adam. Eli it was nice to meeting you. See you around?" She looks at Eli with a Smile standing up at the table."Guess you will Edwards."
