Chapter 2:
Fitz's Pov:
She just stood there speechless. Well, after I almost stabbed her boyfriend, then admit I love her, I understand why she isn't talking. My change is a lot to take in.
"So you became Christian and learned the teachings of Jesus for me?" Clare asked.
"Yup. Also because I needed something to hold on to after I was in juvie to prevent me from coming back. I needed a huge motivation, so I made it you. Every time I see you with Eli, I get jealous because I know you will never love me and continue loving Eli."
"Is that also why you tried to stab Eli? So that you could get me?"
"Kind of. I wanted to show you I was strong and that I can protect you."
"So you try to kill my boyfriend?"
"Yes."
"Wow…."
Her phone rang. It was none other than Eli, the man of her dreams.
Clare's POV:
"Hello?" I said into the phone.
"Hey. I'm coming to pick you up now. You have spent WAY too much time with Fitz today," Eli replied.
"Ok, see you soon. Love you!"
"Love you too."
"Bye."
I hung up and turned to Fitz.
"I have to go, Eli's coming."
"OK, be safe. I care about you," Fitz replied.
I looked out the window and noticed Eli parking. I ran towards Morty without saying "bye" to Fitz or turning back.
