Clare's POV
I walked out of the class to go to my next period, when I saw "Eli" obviously looking for his next class.
"Need any help?"
"Uh… yeah I'm looking for Mr. Perinos room?"
"Oh well, you go right down the hall and to the left."
"Sweet, thanks."
I couldn't just let him go without getting to know him a little bit… I mean there was still 4 minutes before the bell rang. As he started to walk to his next class, I realized that if I was going to approach him, it would have to be now.
"Hey, uh, so you're Eli.. Is that correct?"
"Why, yes I am."
"Oh, right, well cool…"
"And you're Clare. Is that correct?"
He was mocking the way I asked my question. I'm gonna mock his response.
"Why, yes I am."
It was completely stupid for me to start the conversation, we sat there in awkward silence for about.. 2 minutes.
"Well, I gotta get to class. So, see you around?"
"I guess you will, Blue Eyes."
I started to blush tremendously.
It may sound cheesy but dammit I can be cheesy once in a while… but… when he said Blue Eyes, my stomach got into a tight knot. I think I genuinely like him.
Eli's POV
Wow, first period was sooo fun. I mean isn't all school supposed to be fun..? But seeing Clare and actually having a class with her is pretty awesome. I felt like an idiot looking for my class, like a lost dog. When Clare decided to come and help. This was completely fine with me. As I started to walk away she started to talk.
"Well, I gotta get to class. So, see you around?"
"I guess you will, Blue eyes."
I walked away as I looked back and she was blushing so hard her cheeks were the shade of a rose. I was glad I had this effect on her. I walked away pleased with myself.
