Chapter 2 - surprise!

Eli's pov

I sighed lightly as I signed off the computer and wandered up to my bedroom sitting on the edge of desk. I still hadn't figured out why I had said I'd forgive Fitz, I guess I just wanted to please Clare. In the end though I didn't know if I really honestly bring myself to forgive him, I mean if he had of slipped a quarter of an inch then he would of stabbed me in the arm. Part of me was pretty pissed at Clare for forgiving him so easily, I wanted with all my heart for our relationship to work, but this was one thing that I couldn't tolerate.

Clare's pov

I walked up Eli's front steps and knocked on his door a few times, no reply, I sighed and then rang the doorbell. Eli opened the door a minute later and seemed as I had expected surprised to see me there. He looked angrier than I had imaged though and I didn't understand why, because he had given in and said he would forgive Fitz. Just when I thought he was trying to get me to go away he gestured with his left hand for me to come inside and closed the door behind me. " Eli, are you ok?" I asked with a confused expression that he returned back " Yeah... fine, why?" he asked trying to sound indifferent but he didn't fool me by now I knew something was up it was just a matter of figuring out what that something was.
