If I Mean A Lot to You.
An EClare Story
Okay, third chapter, here it goes!
Disclaimer: I do not own Degrassi, or anything in here.
Eli's POV:
Why would she make out with him like that? She never used to act like that with me. I just had to calm down. Do what Dr. Nash tells me to do. I wasn't going to throw my progress down the toilet. I mean, I just got released to seeing her once a week. She thought I was doing great, I wasn't going to ruin it. Then I heard a familiar voice "Eli! Wait up!" It was Clare. "I thought you were busy making out with your boyfriend." I said with complete and utter anger, but I suddenly felt bad. She looked at me in disappointment and said "Sorry. He.. I. I don't know. Did you need something from me when you went to our table?" I realized I did. I managed to sound completely desperate when I said "We need to work on our English project, and I wanted to know if you wanted to work on it at The Dot or something..?" surprisingly she..looked happy, and said "Yes!" and looked down and then looked back up and said "Oh, of course. Today after school?" I happily agreed. I went back to my table and Tori asked "You love her, don't you?" I wanted to breakdown, but I swallowed my sadness up, and said "Always."
Clare's POV:
I wanted to know why it took Eli so long to get here. I've been waiting for 20 minutes. I felt my phone buzz and it was Eli.
Eli:
Hey, I know I'm running late, but I rushed out of my house, and forgot my laptop, I need to go back and get it. Sorry, blue eyes. Be there in a sec.
I smiled at the fact he called me Blue eyes. He knew I loved when he did. I waited 5 more minutes, and there he was. Sweating. I laughed at his expense, and he smirked and said "Hey, don't laugh at me. I've been scatterbrained lately, alright, blue eyes." I giggled and said "Alright, alright Goldsworthy, so, you and…Tori, or you and Imogen again what's going on there?" he laughed, but I wasn't, I was serious, he just didn't know it. He then said "Tori and Adam like each other, and I set them up, although, I didn't have to do much. And Imogen? Imogen is dating Fiona now. Imogen and Fiona bonded after the play, and well, let's say Imogen liked Fiona way more than me." I felt so embarrassed and all I could say was "Oh. Cool." After that little catch up, I felt better. I couldn't picture him with anyone. It made me angry just thinking about it. After that, ee worked for about two hours, and we got almost everything done. Then all of a sudden Jake came in. He came in with a girl, not just any girl…Marisol.. one of the biggest…floozies in schoo. Maybe this was my chance to break up with him..
Jakes POV:
Man, Marisol is just as easy as Clare. Easier even. I wasn't going to quit it with Clare just yet since we already booked rooms at the Blue Mountain Ski resort for the end of the semester party. I would probably get in her pants then, break up with her, and hooking up with Marisol. Easy, right? "So, Marisol, how are you with my boyfriend? Or soon to be my ex-boyfriend." Shit. Clare. But she was with fucking Eli. I looked at her up and down and said "Clare, Marisol and I were just working. The same as you and Eli, I guess? Stop being insecure."
Clare's POV:
Insecure. Insecure. Inse-fucking-cure. I rarely cursed, or ever thought of it, but he was right, I have been insecure. And it was all his fault. I looked at Eli, and I said "I've got to go, Eli. Tomorrow, and we can finish this up." He laughed and said "Yeah, sure Edwards. Bye." And he stormed out. I felt horrible. Jake said "C'mon Edwards, let's go home." And we did just that.
****3 months later****
Eli's POV:
Well, one semester down, one more to go.. and what great way to end it, going to a fucking ski resort to be a third wheel. Ex-fucking-citing. Clare and I finished our work in one day every time we had it, but oddly enough she'd been closer to Jake then ever, but not in a happy way. If anything, he was…suffocating her. As I biked my way home, my parents waiting outside happily, but why? I looked at them and I couldn't help but ask "Okay, what's the big deal? I have a to pack, and I have a bus to catch, guys. The yscreamed in unison and said "Eli, we're getting you a new car! Or truck! Your choice!" I couldn't be anymore happy. My parents drove us to a dealership, and there it was. A Black Ford Raptor. I had money saved from my job at Barnes and Noble last summer, and I was waiting for college to get my dream truck besides my beloved morty which I missed so much, but hell.. My parents knew what truck I wanted, and they bought it for me. It had a lot of room in the back too, like they though I was going to fool around with some girl there. I drove home, and I looked at the time. Shit, I haven't even packed, and the bus was going to leave in an hour. Then I felt my phone vibrate, it was a text from Adam.
Adam:
"bro, where r u? We came early and I thought u agreed to meet us to catch the bus? BTW I saw Clare and Jake here. Well, see u?"
I texted him back saying
"hey, bro, sorry, I just got a new truck, my DREAM truck, black ford raptor ;) I think I'll just drive up there, give u and tori some alone time. And that's just great. It's whatever. See u at Blue Resort, or whatever. Save me a bed, lol. Laters."
I went downstairs and told my parents I missed the bus, and they said I can just drive, which I planned on doing anyways. I liked driving, especially long drives. I wish I could drive Clare over to the Blue whatever resort. I missed talking with her. I mean, we were english partners, but it never meant we could talk about anything other than English, according to Clare.
****6 hours later****
Man, a 6 hour drive did me well, I checked in, and went up to my room, and what do I walk in to see? Adam and Tori Making out on the bed. everything got really awkward, really fast. I apologized, threw my bag in there, and walked out. I was going to chill by the pool tonight.
Clare's POV:
I haven't been skiing since my Dad, Darcy, and I went to that trip when I was smaller, I mean, I wasn't too great at it, but hell, It's been a while. Jake tought me the basics, but I was tired, so I requested we go to the room, our hotel room. He happily accepted. Oddly. We went up to our room, but there was only one bed. I was angry and I asked "Jake, why is there only one bed?" and he looked angry and said "Clare, baby, I thought we could, I don't know, sleep in each other's arms tonight?" I just went to the bathroom to change into some pjs, and not argue. I changed into short pajama shorts and a blue tank top, and when I walked out, he was sitting out the bed, and said "Baby, you look gorgeous, kiss?" I smiled exceptionally and kissed him. He didn't want to break it, and he forced me onto the bed he was on top, holding my arms down. I was scared, and I finally broke the kiss, and muttered out "What the hell are you doing, Jake?" he looked mad but he smiled and said "Baby, I want to take it to the next level, and he touched my chest. I slapped him. He didn't take it harsh at all though he said "Ooh, babe, like it rough? Then that's how I'm going to give it to you!" He started touching my butt, and tried to make his way towards my..center. I finally got too pressured and pushed him off the bed and yelled "Get out of this room, and don't bother coming back in!" Jake went to go get some stuff in the bathroom, and he had my suitcase, and through it out in the hallway. He yelled at me and said "You can get the fuck out of this room, I paid for it, and we're through. You're just a fucking tease, Clare. See ya when we go home, bitch!" I was crying, and he just shut the door. I couldn't get it through my head why I was stupid about this. About all of this. I left my stuff there, and ran to the closest place, the pool.
