Chapter 4

Eli's pov

Clare walked off and left me wondering what had happened to her. I mean that I would never hurt her intentionally but what was so bad that could have made her reluctant to go out with me.
Well I guess I would have to do a little background research. Ok so her friend was Alli she would know and if she didn't then I don't know what I'd do from there. I saw Alli walk towards the door here we go.


Alli's pov

I was looking for my lip-gloss in my bag when Eli came up to me.
"Hey Alli, right, I have a question" ok then what, I nodded
"um what happened to Clare in her last relationship cause she mentioned it earlier" oh K.C. well it wasn't a secret, here we go.
"to make a long story short Clare's ex k.c. dumped her for a cheerleader then he came back acted all friendly then got her to cheat on school stuff for him, cuz Jenna who was the cheerleader convinced him to do it. Clare was pretty upset for a while but I think she's over it" I took a breath it wasn't so short after all.
"well I guess she's not over the whole heartbreak thing" Eli responded
"oh yeah we're kind of fuzzy on the whole timeline thing but k.c. might have cheated, most likely actually" well I was done talking to him
"well bye, wait why did you want to know" I asked
"no reason"
"k then bye" I walked off.


Eli's pov

Oh well that defiantly explained the whole trust thing. So I just had to prove that that would never happen with me. I saw Clare talking with Alli and Fitz walked over to them stopped then walked away. What was his deal?


Clare's pov

I walked into English and the only seat available was right in front of Eli. Great. I walked over trying not to make a big deal about it. I didn't even look at him. I know what your thinking-cold teenage girl, but I was not ever going to let this happen. I really, really wanted to but couldn't because of the past. It wasn't totally behind me. Dang my untrustworthy side. Class went by and I was waiting for Eli to get up and out of the way but he didn't budge. Ok then I would have to be the mature one. I stood up and he immediately did. Wonderful so he wanted to talk.
"Clare I really like you and I promise that you can trust me"
"First of all I don't think you know what your talking about and..."
"yes I do Alli told me I get it Clare you..."
"look Eli it's rude to cut me off and I'm sensitive to this sort of thing"
"what sort of thing"
"liking someone ok, then getting stabbed in the back by my friend and boyfriend leaving me there empty and alone" now I was onto a sticky subject. Honestly it was nice to let it all out but I think I was a little loud.

"liking someone ok, then getting stabbed in the back by my friend and boyfriend leaving me there empty and alone" ok I got it now so Jenna was her friend. Ouch.
"But I'm not K.C. and I won't leave you heartbroken and alone." ok now I was sounding mushy, what was this affect she had on me?
"How do you know, one day a pretty blond cheerleader might show up and you'll fall for her and forget all about me" oh god I get the point so shut up already.
"listen to me I am not ever going to do that to you, I'm different" couldn't she get it. I made my last desperate playbook attempt. I kissed her right in front of everyone. I must say she looked like she liked that alot. She pulled back and said:
"look I really like you, but..."
"Clare get over it the past is the past you need to live your life right now" her frown turned into a better expression so I guessed that she had agreed.
