Chapter Three

Several days into her trip, Claire was ready to go home. She missed every aspect of Asheville and she couldn't wait to get out of this town and head home. Today, she was spending the entire day with her mother. They were going to get out of the house and go shopping, get pedicures. Most importantly, Claire was going to speak to her mother about leaving Waverly. It just made sense to her and her brother. She had tried to convince her brother to at least join them for lunch but he didn't budge. Tucker claimed that Ellie's cousins were in town and that he needed to meet them. She called bullshit and he flipped her off and that was the end of their loving conversation.

As Claire and her mother walked down the Main Street of Waverly, it reminded her of when she was younger, there were many days where the two found themselves wandering through the downtown area and shopping. Occasionally, they would make the journey to a bigger city to go to the mall, but for the most part Waverly had everything that they needed. Her and her mother spoke of what had been new in town, as usual her mother knew all of the town gossip. She always had and she always would. What Claire found most entertaining was the fact that her mother and her fellow gossipers never knew about her and Clint. They must have done a damn good job of hiding it. Claire would constantly worry about them being caught, not as if there was anything wrong with it. She just worried that it would ruin Tucker and his friendship, which she didn't want to do. Clint was the one who constantly told her to not panic and if she worried too much, to tell Tucker. That would snap her out of her panic.

"You're pretty quiet over there, Savannah." Her mother informed her, smoothing out the sides of the dress that she wore. She shook her head and looked at her mother who smiled. Claire gave her mother a smile and did her best to ignore her daze. So far they had gotten their pedicure, and now it was time to choose for a dress for her mother. When Claire had found out this tiny detail, she was in shock. Her mother simply argued that she wanted her opinion before purchasing the dress. Thankfully she had narrowed down the dress to two options. The one that he wore at the moment was a tighter dark grey lace dress that was tea length. Savannah scrunched her face to the side and shrugged her shoulders.

"I like it, but how comfortable will you be in that?" She stated, her mother turned around and looked at herself in the mirror. She knew that her mother loved the dress, but she didn't want her to purchase it if she was uncomfortable.

"And where did you learn to be so wise?" She asked, and walked over to her daughter before kissing her head. She turned and walked towards the dressing room to put on another dress. Claire glanced towards the rows of wedding dresses that were near her. She wanted to walk over and at least glance at them, but she knew she shouldn't. Claire knew that she wasn't getting married anytime soon so why would she torture herself by even looking at them. The next dress that her mother walked out in was a similar dark grey color. The top was the same lace from the other dress and the bottom flared out. Claire nodded her head.

"Now that is your dress." She said to her mother, "You're gonna look great." Rebecca nodded her head.

"I suppose you are right." She said, "This a perfect dress, and I'll just have to top it for your wedding." She informed her daughter who laughed. Claire truly did miss her mother, and she knew that she would have to talk to her sooner or later about moving to North Carolina with her and her brother. At the moment, Claire wasn't even sure if Tucker had told their mother about his and Ellie's move. Claire stood up from her seat and made her way towards the counter. It wasn't long until her mother joined her and paid for the dress. "Now that i've bought this nice dress lets go eat." She said and Claire nodded. They left the store and made their way towards her favorite restaurant.

The Waterside Grill was Claire's favorite place in town. It was on the river which she always loved to look at when they went out for family dinners. In addition, there were several places where you could get into the river and just float around for a while. Claire loved to kayak down the river on hot days in the summer. Upon arriving at Waterside Grill, they sat in their usual booth that overlooked the river, and more specifically Claire's favorite spot.

It was the spot where her and Clint had their first date.

Savannah sat in her bedroom reading her history textbook, her hands were twirling her long hair into two ringlets on either side of her head. Her eyes had been glancing over the same material that she had been for the past several hours. In wanting to be a teacher, she had to take several classes for early childhood development. She knew the material, but Savannah always panicked before a test. Glancing up at the white clock in her room, she knew that the time hadn't changed since the last time she looked up thirty seconds ago, it still read 11:30. Rolling her eyes, Savannah looked back towards her text book, before hearing a thud on the window of her bedroom. Her head shot up, there was no blood it couldn't have been a bird. Savannah went back to her reading before hearing another thud. Groaning, she got up off of her bed and walked over to the window just in enough time to hear a thud and see who was the cause of all of this.

She should have known it was Clint Barton.

Opening the window she shook her head."What in god's name are you doing?" She asked loud enough for him to hear her. He shrugged his shoulders in the dark lighting.

"Come down here." He asked her. She raised her eyebrows and saw him smirk ever so slightly. She shook her head before closing her window. Walking over to her closet, Savannah placed on a pair of grey tennis shoes and made her way out of her room. She was careful walking past her parent's room, even though she knew they had long been asleep. She walked down the stairs and walked out of her home, carefully shutting the door behind her. Clint stood at the end of the porch, his head nodding in the 'come here' motion. Savannah raised an eyebrow and walked towards him. He placed an arm around her and began walking away from the house.

"Where are we going, you know I always knew you were the serial murder type." She joked, though she could barely see him, she knew he was shaking his head.

"It must be the carny in me huh."

"I always knew the circus people were bad news. I mean anyone with clowns is bad news."

"They were some of the nicest people I met."

"That's a bullshit lie, Clinton." She spoke and a laugh escaped his lips.

"Yeah it is. They were a bunch of freaks, myself included." He spoke, she shook her head.

"You're not a freak." She said to him, but he ignored her comment, leading her towards his car.

"Get in, were going for a little ride." He told her, waking over to the passenger side of the car and holding the door open for her. She gave him a smile before getting into the car. He walked around to the other side and got in the car. Clint started the engine before driving off. She glanced over at him, raising an eyebrow.

"Now can you tell me where we are going?" Savannah asked and he shrugged his shoulders.

"Nope." She rolled her eyes and looked at the road ahead of her. The car became silent as they drove to the end of her street, he made a left turn which would lead them down to the downtown area. Clint reached over and grabbed her hand, lacing them together and giving her hand a squeeze. A smile appeared on her face. He drove to the far end of town and came to a stop near the river. He placed the car into park and glanced towards her. "Come on."

"Alright, now i'm convinced you're going to kill me for sure." She joked.

"Come on, Savannah." He informed her. She unbuckled herself from the seat and got out of the car, shutting the door behind her. As the wind blew past her, an involuntary shudder ran through her body. She knew that she should have grabbed a jacket before leaving her house. Clint walked over to her and placed his arms around her and led her to a bench under a tall lamp post. She sat down on the cool bench and he sat next to her. Savannah snuggled herself closer to him and he placed his arms around her pulling her legs to rest on his thighs. She placed her head on his shoulder.

Now this is something Savannah knew she could do forever, she felt more relaxed just being in his company. "Thank you, I needed this."

Clint nodded his head, "Of course, I hadn't heard from you in a while so I thought I would stop by." Savannah placed a kiss on the underside of his jaw. He smiled before reaching into his pocket. "I got you something, I was going to wait until after your test tomorrow but," His voice trailed off as he pulled out a long black velvet box, handing it to her. Savannah's face softened.

"Clint, you didn't have to get me anything." She spoke to him, he shook his head.

"I saw it and I thought you would like it." He explained, she opened the box that revealed the necklace. As she glanced at the arrow necklace she knew that the dim lighting was not doing it justice.

"Clint," She simply sighed and he shrugged his shoulders.

"Its beautiful, thank you." Savannah gathered the necklace and took it out to put it on. "Can you see enough to help?" She asked.

"I'm deaf, not blind." She rolled her eyes ad he let out a soft chuckle, helping her place the necklace on. As soon as the necklace was clasped on. She felt his rough hands running down her bare arms, she could feel a fire running through her. Savannah leaned closer to him and closed the gap that had once been between them. Her lips landed on his and his arms went to her back, pulling her closer to him.

"Alright, Savannah Claire, you best tell me whats on your mind." Rebecca said looking over her menu at the spacing Claire. She shook her head to try and get out of the dazed memory that she was in. This time, she couldn't blame it on nothing, and her mother was giving her that hard look that always intimidated her. She knew that she was going to have to speak quickly, or she would chicken out once again.

"Well mom, you know that Tucker and Ellie aren't gonna stay here forever." She stumbled through her words and tried her best to phrase what she was trying to say. Claire knew that even she could not figure out an easier way to ask her mother what she needed too.

Claire needed a drink.

"Well, out with it." Her mom said.

"I think you should move to North Carolina with me." She blurted out before she could think twice.

"Are you pregnant?" Her mother asked, a dead serious look crossed her face. Claire's green eyes widened to several times their normal size.

"What? Mom, no!"

"Then i'm not coming." Her mother said with her all knowing attitude, Claire knew that this was the end of the conversation.

For now.
