Sinking Slowly
This is basically a fan fiction about Eli.
In the beginning few chapters, it'll be Clare and Eli….but based off of the recent promo, they will end.
And Eli will loose himself, but maybe someone can save him. Say, someone just like him?
If you're a complete EClare fan. You may not like this.
Sorry if you don't.
*Main theme based off of the song "Swallow" by the lovely and talented, Emilie Autumn. (:
Summary:
He was somewhat repaired, but became broken again. Never would he love another, that is, until he met somebody just as broken as himself.
Chapter One
Eli's POV
Everything's perfect. I never thought I'd smile again, but Clare's changed that. She's been there for me, she's helped me get rid of the past that consumed me. And for that I can't thank her enough. I love her. She's pretty much my life.
"What are you thinking about?" I asked her, as we sat on my living room couch. She was staring into space, I knew when she was thinking.
"Nothing really, I'm just thinking about us." She said with a smile, I smirked and leaned in and kissed her.
"Elaborate?" I asked her, she shrugged, "We've come along way since we first met. It's crazy how much we have." She said, I smiled. "It's pretty intense." I agreed, she nodded. "I'm happy about it all though. It's been a long road, but well worth it." She said, I smirked, "It has been. But together, we can do anything." I said, as I leaned in closer to her, "Clare, I love you." I said, "with all my heart." I added, as I waited for her to reply. "I love you too, Eli." She smiled, as she wasn't as serious about it as me. We told each other we loved one another before, but this time I wanted it to be different, I wanted her to know that she was my life.
"No, Clare, I mean, I really love you. Without you, I probably wouldn't even still be living right now. You're the only thing in my life that matters." I said, as her happy expression turned into a frown. I waited for her to reply, it seemed like hours, but it was only minutes. "Eli…I, uh, am glad that you feel that way." She stuttered, as she looked at her watch, she began to stand up, I watched as she checked her phone for messages or missed calls. Before I could even move she spoke up, "It's getting late. I should get home before my parents worry." She said, and headed to the door, I followed her quickly.
"Did I do something wrong?" I asked her, she turned to me and paused for a moment, her nervous expression went to a small smile. "…No, Eli. Of course not. I just don't want to get in trouble for being late or anything." She said, I nodded, pretending to buy it, but I didn't. "Well okay. I can drive you home." I suggested, normally she jumped at that request. She loved Morty.
"You don't have to. I can walk, thanks though." She smiled, and pecked me on the lips, before I could even say goodbye she ran off. I watched as she practically ran home. Dammit Goldsworthy.
Later that night I sat in my room, on my bed. Just looking at the picture on my nightstand. It was a photo of Clare and I, she had her beautiful pure smile on, and I had my signature smirk. It was how we were. Complete opposites, which were perfect for the other.
Clare was constantly on my mind, no matter what. I always thought of her, I always wanted to be with her.
I thought about what just happened though. I told Clare everything, and I meant every word. And all she could say was she was glad I felt that way.
I knew I did something wrong, I knew somehow maybe Clare wasn't ready to know that she was my everything. But it was true, I can't change the way I feel.
…Or maybe I'm just being paranoid. Yeah, maybe that's it. I'm sure by tomorrow, when I see her again, everything will be back to the way it always has been.
I hope.
So, love it? Hate it?
Come on, I can take it. :P
It'll be interesting. The next chapter's very sad, if you love Eli and Clare together.
Now don't think I don't. I like EClare. But I wanted to try something different.
Work with me, okay?
I DON'T OWN DEGRASSI. Trust me, if I did, you would know. xD
But yeah. I hope you all liked it.
It'll get better. (:
Review please? They make me smile. And I like to smile.
