Answer ilovetaylorswift13: YES TOTALLY ECLARE STORY AND THEY WILL.
Soon Clare and Lydia were making their way to the restaurant. It was nice out so they decided to walk. Eli was standing in front of the restaurant looking at around like a lost dog. Clare went up to up to him and scared him.
"I'm gonna hurt you." He said.
She smiled and gave him a quick kiss. "Eli, that's Lydia. Lydia, that's Eli." She introduced.
"Nice to meet you." Lydia gave him a hug.
"You too." He responded.
They walked in and got seats for three. Lydia sat next to Clare, Eli across from her.
"So what part of Florida are you from?" Eli asked Lydia.
"Orlando."
"That's such a long flight."
"Yeah it was torture, but I haven't seen Clare in so long so it was worth it." Clare smiled at her friend.
Soon the waitress came and asked for what they wanted. They all ordered their food. Clare and Lydia continued to catch up. Suddenly, Eli began inching his foot up Clare's leg.
She looked at him and glaring telling him to stop but he didn't. Clare bit her inner lip.
"Clare, you alright?" Lydia asked.
"Uhh yea, Eli's being stupid and playing footsies." She teased. Eli playfully glared and pulled his leg away.
"So Eli, when did you ask Clare out?"Lydia asked.
"She asked me out." He smirked smugly.
Lydia turned to Clare, "You said he did."
"Yea...well." Clare began to blush.
"Why'd you tell her that?" Eli asked.
"I wanted it to seem like you were just desperate to have me." She said sarcastically.
"I mean but I was."
"Okay guys, save the love making for later please." Lydia interrupted.
They look at each other, glaring as in 'I love you so much but I still want to kill you'. The waiter soon returned with their drinks and food.
"Back to your question, Clare basically asked do I wanna lay low with her after she asked me to the dance."
"Jeez Clare, you have guts now?"
She looked at Lydia with a full mouth and nodded and they both laughed at her. Soon they finished, Eli paid for them all and they made their way to Morty. Eli drove to Clare's house and soon they arrived. Eli walked them to the door and all three just stood there awkwardly.
"Um so I guess I'll go inside and leave you guys to make out." Lyd said raising her eyebrows at Clare.
"I'll see you later?" She asked Eli looking up at him, puppy dog eyes.
"Uh—yea, sure."He weakly smiled. Lydia smiled and made her way in the house.
"What are you guys gonna do tomorrow?" Eli asked.
"No idea yet."
"You should let me know."
"Why?"
"If it's not too girly, I wanna come. She's cool."
"Oh that's great. You want to come to flirt with my best friend and not your girlfriend. You're sweet." She said sarcastically.
"Oh but of course." He smirked.
"Text me in the morning?" He asked and she nodded in response. He leaned in and brushed his fingers along her cheek.
He smashed his lips to hers and she kissed back. Her tongue glided his bottom lip and he opened his mouth as her tongue dove in and he returned it. Breathless, she pulled back.
"I'll talk to you later."
"Alright, I love you."
"I love you too." She gave him on last kiss before walking in the door. Lydia was standing right before Clare, smiling at her.
"What?" Clare asked.
"I saw you guys swapping spit."
Clare blushed, "You creep."
They both laughed and made their way up to Clare's bedroom.
"What are we gonna do tomorrow?" Clare asked as they both changed into their pajamas.
"No idea, you know this place better than I do."
Clare giggled, "Wanna go to the pool?"
"Yeah, sure."
They both jumped in the bed getting comfortable. She hesitated before asking, "Is it okay if Eli comes?"
"Is he gonna come with us everywhere?" She asked.
"No please. He said he likes you and thinks you're cool so please can he come?" She pouted.
"He said he likes me?" She asked more curious.
"Yea whatever so is that a yes?"
"Fine, as long as you guys aren't sucking each other's faces off in front of me."
"Deal."
"Day after tomorrow, spa day? Just you and me, Okay?" Clare suggested.
"Yes." Lydia smiled.
Clare's phone vibrated and she grabbed it off the nightstand.
Goodnight beautiful, I love you
Eli
She couldn't help but blush.
"Eli again?" Lyd asked.
"I'm sorry, I'll stop." She put her phone back on the nightstand.
"I'm fine, just please don't make me the third wheel tomorrow."
"You felt like the 3rd wheel today?" Clare asked.
"No, but I feel since we'll be in the pool, you guys will be too tempted to kiss making me awkward."
"It won't happen, I promise. Goodnight." Clare said turning to her back to her, sneakily grabbing her phone and texting Eli back.
I know you guys wanted the dinner to be awkward but I felt they needed a good start so it gets more awkward when she makes the move. And next chapter will be where she gets, yea ya know. REVIEW TO MAKE ME HAPPPY!
