"Have you even made an effort to contact her?" I shouted which made him jump back a little. "Eli, calm down." he replied grabbing my arm so I didn't go into rage. I pushed him away extremely mad now.

"Adam-" I started but he cut me off. "You need to talk to her don't you." a devilish grin formed on his face. "How'd you know?" I asked sharply. "Seriously Eli? We've been best friends for almost 6 years. I've memorized you." he laughed.

Before I could even reply to that, he yelled, "Alli! Where is Clare's number?" "Its in my phone!" she called from the kitchen. Adam walked over and started messing with Alli's blackberry. My heart skipped a beat as he picked up the phone and put it too his ear.

I heard the faint ring as he waited for her to answer. A smile formed on his face then he looked at me.

Adam- "Hey Clare"

Clare - "Hey.. Um"

Adam - "Its Adam on Alli's phone."

Clare - "Oh. Hey Adam. Nice to talk to you."

Adam - "Its nice to hear from you too Clare"

I motioned for him to give me the phone. I wanted to hear her sweet soft voice again. Of course he ignored me. But then he replied to something that made me almost stop breathing.

Adam - "Oh. So you and your boyfriend just broke up?" He winked at me.

Clare - "..Yea. Kinda."

Adam - "I'm sorry Clare."

Clare - "Its fine. It wasn't your fault. We were just too different."

Adam - "Well I hope you get better. But hey I was wondering.. Do you remember a guy named Eli? Adam asked her slowly.

Clare - "Eli? It kinda sounds familiar.. But no. Sorry."

Adam - "Oh." He sighed trying to avoid eye contact with me.

Clare - "Why?"

Adam- "Just wondering."

Clare - "Oh. Well Adam I have to leave for class. I'll talk to you later?"

Adam - "Yea ok Clare. It was nice talking to you. Miss you" "Tell her I miss her too!" Alli called from the kitchen.

Adam - "Alli misses you too" he laughed.

Clare - "Tell her I miss her and we need to get together. Soon. I miss you too Adam! Bye!"

Adam - "Bye." he whispered then hung up. He turned and set Alli's phone back down on the counter. "Eli.. I'm sorry." he looked up at me.

I was suddenly mad at myself. For not being there when she was in the hospital. Not being there when she woke up. I wish I had known right away. But I don't think anyone knew until she'd been in there for a while.

It stung me to know that she didn't remember me. None the less love me anymore. I felt bad that she just broke up with her boyfriend.. But I wish I had been in the position. So her heart would never have been broken again.

I know she probably wouldn't want to see me even if she remembered me.. But I want too see her. After all these years.

"Well.." Adam started. "Do you still want to go to the bar?" I looked up and smirked. "How could I not want to go drinking with my best friend? ..Its not like Clare not remembering me is gonna ruin my night.." I looked down then back up forcing a smile.

"Ok then." he turned and walked to the kitchen to tell Alli where he was going. I turned around and started outside and waited for him.

Adam's POV

I made think that I was going to tell Alli where I was going. I wasn't. I walked into the kitchen behind Alli and I heard the front door shut as Eli went outside to wait. She turned to me. Searching my face for why I was in there. She found it. "We need to set them up.. Without them finding out each others names." she smiled.

"How though? Its almost impossible.. What about a masquerade? They wouldn't be able to see each others faces.. But would probably mention their names in the introduction." I sighed. "A anonymous blind-date?" Alli suggested quietly.

"Alli that's brilliant!" I exclaimed kissing her on the cheek and running towards the door. I walked out and got in Morty with Eli. We drove to the bar and got wasted.

It was about 3 am when I called Alli asking her to pick us up. Because clearly we couldn't. She drove down and picked us up leaving Morty in the parking lot until morning. I let Eli sleep in the guest bed room and Alli and I went to bed.

When I woke up I nauseous with a splitting headache. I sat up and swung my legs over the side of the bed. Rubbing my forehead with the palm of my hand. Alli came over with a glass of water and handed it too me. Laying her head on my shoulder as I took and chugged it.

"How are we going to set them up on an anonymous blind date? They cant really talk without mentioning their names.." she started. "Alli. If we tell them that they cant say there names.. Then I'm sure Eli would keep his promise and not mention his name. Besides Clare doesn't remember him.. Its just Clare we have to keep from saying her name." I cut her off. She looked up at me and smiled. "Then it's a go?"

"Yes. Plan anonymous blind date is a go." I smiled and kissed her head.
