I couldn't wait till tomorrow to write so here it is.
Chapter 2
Clare's POV
Walking up the Degrassi steps felt so weird it like you aren't supposed to be there.
"Clare, is that you?" I heard an excited voice say.
I turned around to see Ali in a short sparkly pink dress running towards me.
"Ali?" I asked in the same excited tone. I gave her a hug and she returned it.
"How are you? I haven't seen you in such a long time. What are you doing for a job?"
"Ali." I interrupted her. "Slow down one question at a time. Okay, first off I'm doing good. Great actually. I got a job as a Journalist, and I'm doing very well." I said smiling. We started to walk into the building, and we just sat down at a table continued to catch up.
I found out that Ali was a fashion designer (no surprise there), and that she has a serious boyfriend back in Detroit.
"So. Do you have anyone special in your life right know ?" She pressed.
"Yeah, but he isn't that serious we've only been dating for a couple of weeks." I told her.
"Well, what's his name?"
"Ryan Welsh. He's cute, and very smart. He works at a law firm."
" Ooo. A lawyer." She gushed.
I laughed lightly. "Yeah a lawyer. "
Suddenly 'We R Who We R' by Kesha came on.
"Oh, I love this song. Come on Clare let's dance." Ali said while pulling me onto my feet.
"Okay, okay." I said giggling. We danced until the song was over and I decided to get something to drink. I went over to the refreshment table to get some punch. I then walked over to the table me and Ali had been before to see someone familiar standing there.
"Eli?" I asked surprised. I wasn't really expecting him to come to something like this.
His eyes widened. He must of recognized me. "Clare?" He asked just as surprised as me.
"Hi. I didn't expect to see you here." I said all excited. I walked closer to him and he hugged.
"It's good to see you, Blue eyes." He replied as we stopped hugging.
" It's good to see you, too. We have a lot of catching up to do." I said
"That we do." He agreed smiling. I missed his smile it's beautiful and very rare to see.
We sat down across from each other at the table.
"So what are you doing for a living?" I asked him.
"Actually I am unemployed at the moment." He said. "How about you. What do you do?" He asked.
"I'm a Journalist, and part time writer." I said.
"Cool. What are you writing about?"
"I don't know It's complicated." I replied.
Eli got up from his chair and stuck his hand out towards me. "Edwards, would you care to dance?" He asked me smirking. "It would be my pleasure." I said taking his hand. We made our way to the dance floor, the song 'I'll Be' by Edwin McCain started to play. Eli put his hands on my waist and I put mine on his shoulders. It felt great being In Eli's arms again. Like it was supposed to be like that. The song was halfway through when I heard someone clear there throat. Eli and I stopped dancing and turned to look in the direction it came from. It was Ryan. I couldn't believe it. What was he doing here?
