Chapter 2.
Clare's POV-
I entered the class room and turned around.
"Ah, Miss Edwards. You're late..." She looked me up and down
"I-I Know... I'm sorry Ma'am. I promise it won't happen again" I said all in one breath
"Alright, I'll let it slide this time, Edwards." She looked over at a boy dressed in all black with black silky like hair and he had peircing green eyes that sparked. Along with a smirk that fit him well. He's cute...I mentally noted to myself.
"As for you, Clare. You and here will be writing partners. You guys have to write about your personal life." She ended with a cheerful smile and turned back to the board as I took my seat behind . My thoughts weren't on the writing at all. I was thinking about my parents...And Darcy...And if we'll ever be a family again..
"So partner what will you be writing about?" The boy turned around and gave me a lopsided smirk and I slightly smiled.
"Um... Well I don't like being personal since my personal life has many problems at the moment..." I muttered. Not looking up at him.
"Same here. I'll tell my story, if you tell me yours" His smirk turned into a sad smile and I looked at him questioningly.
"Alright... But, it has to be no where near here or near anyone. I don't want people to see me crying.." I added and looked up at him and he nodded
"My names Eli, and you're Clare."
"Really?! I never knew my name was Clare.." I smirked smugly.
"HaHaHa, So funny!" He rolled his eyes playfully and chuckled.
I only smiled in return as the bell rung and everyone started to leave.
"Wanna skip?" He asked. "We could trade our personal stories..." He looked into my blue eyes with his green eyes.
I nodded, "Let's." I hopped up, grabing my stuff as we walked out of the school and to his car.
Eli's POV-
"You drive a hearse?!" Clare's eyes were big and wide.
I chuckled lightly, "Yes I do, scared?"
She gulped and shook her head, "But, who died?"
I laughed at her remark, "No one. And his name is Morty."
"Who names a damn hearse?" She raised a brow and opened the passanger side, getting in as I got into the driver side and started the car.
"I do" I smirked at her and she raised a brow.
"Weird, Goldsworthy..." She muttered under her breath.
I chuckled and pulled out of Degrassi Parkinglot and headed to a place no one ever went...
"Nice." Clare said, getting out of the car and walking to a hammock I had hung the summer before.
"So, who goes first? Me or you...?" I asked, obviously talking about our 'personal' stories.
She thought for a moment, "Call it.." She said, taking out a quarter.
"Tails." I said and she flipped the coin, as it landed on heads and her eyes saddened.
"Well...I guess, I'll go first." She said and took in a deep breath.
"It all started during the summer..." She said, trying to stop her voice from shaking. "My mom and dad were fighting... That night my mom came into my room, crying. She had told me she caught my dad in bed with another women." tears started forming in her eyes and I understood why she wanted to be away from the school. "She slept in my room that night.. Then in the morning they talked it out. He told her it was a mistake. But, they argued everyday. I got worse... to the point were I heard glass breaking." She was crying now, heavy tears, it hurt to see such a nice person this way.. "I went downstairs, my mom made my dad leave.. I asked what happened and she said she found nude pictures of Kathy, from our church. Then here they are... getting divorced and my dad has a girlfriend..." I wraped my arms around her and pulled her into a tight hug. "I-It went on for the whole three months and I-I...I just don't understand why God is putting my family though this.."
"Clare, I'm so sorry..." I sighed out and held her closely..
I guess I have to tell her my story...
