Hey everyone! Thank you so much for continuing to read my story! For those of you who follow me on Twitter I said I wouldn't update until Friday but I couldn't wait! Also There was some confusion on the last chapter so I wanted to answer a few questions!

Munroloverx1 –Isn't Degrassi on MuchMusic? Yes it is on MuchMusic but because I was making a play off of MTV's Laguna Beach I thought it would be funny if it was on CTV :)

xCuckooBananas- It was kinda weird that Alli took a shower the night and then in the morning again?- You know I didn't even realize I did that! Oops! But if anything its Alli and she's prissy anyways LOL :p

I would also like to thank DegrassiCat for following me on twitter and loving my story so much! She also helped me with a lead for this chapter so thank you once again! OK so time to read! I really love this chapter and hope you enjoy it! Don't forget to REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! :)

The short black haired girl turned slightly and I got a glance at who she was. Julia; his long time girlfriend and personally I think she's a real hoe bag! Why was he kissing her! After all the flirting and getting to know me bull crap he still has a girlfriend? Eli looked uncomfortable and calmly said something to her. I couldn't hear what he said but she looked surprised. Eli turned away from her and that's when he noticed me standing there dumbfounded. I can't figure out if I have a reason to be angry with him or not. It's not like he is my boyfriend or anything but if felt like maybe that was where it was leading. I feel like I was led-on and I don't like that feeling.

"Clare no, that wasn't what you think." Eli said walking up to me. He then turned to Drew and Alli and gave them the look that meant "Get the hell out of here."

"Clare I'll see you in class." Alli said walking off with Drew.

"Clare I'm sorry." Eli said turning back to me

"So it's not what I think?" I paused when he shook his head. "Oh goodie because what I was thinking was that you are a pathetic jerk who likes to play good boyfriend with one girl and then lead another girl on. But since you said it's not what I think then no worries" I said super sarcastically while I started walking around him and into the school.

"Clare please; seriously, it's not like that. I broke up with Julia yesterday and she thinks I was just pissed and blowing off steam. I just told her to stop and that it really is over." He said in his defense.

"That looked like a hard break up. She seemed real upset about it." Why was I doing this?

"I'm sorry. Honestly! I don't want anything to do with her. She's a slut. Besides I have my eyes looking somewhere else. Please don't be mad." He pleaded

"Me? Mad? Oh no don't worry I'm not mad!" I said smiling but making it clear that I was irritated. "I'm fine. Anyways, It's my first day and I really don't want to be late so see you later."

"Wait, I thought I could maybe walk you to class."

"Thanks but no. Bye Eli." I said with a small smile.

I had decided that if he really was worth it and really wanted to get to know me more than I was going to make him work for it. For the first time I felt like I was slowly changing and coming out of my shell. Saint Clare was no longer here, now it was the Clare who was actually trying to make reality TV star and sexy teen sensation Elijah Goldsworthy work for what he wanted. I just pray he really wants me to or else this was going to be difficult.

Eli POV

I watched as she walked up the steps and into school. I felt horrible for her having seen that. I didn't want Julia to kiss me, hell I didn't want her near me. She only ever caused hurt and pain. She just pranced her happy ass up to me and planted one on me. I didn't expect it but I told her we were done and to leave me the Hell alone. I think she finally got the message, but now I think Clare was pissed. She should be! It looked as if I had led her on and I didn't! Clare was something special and the kind of girl that I would do anything for. She was different; she was the exact opposite of me but I loved that. I didn't even really know her but felt like somehow she was mine and I didn't want to disappoint her or cause her anything but happiness.

I can't tell what she is thinking and its driving me nuts! She said she wasn't mad but it kind of seemed like there was a hidden message somewhere. Why are girls so difficult! I need to find out what she is thinking.

So I grabbed my phone as I walked to my first class and sent her a text.

"I really am sorry. I didn't want her to kiss me. Forgive me?"

I set my phone on my desk as the teacher walked in. Class started and finished and yet no reply from her! God she must be mad.

As I walked to my next class I saw Clare walk into the same one. This was my chance so I ran in and found where she was sitting and sat down right next to her.

"So are you ignoring me now?" I asked with a sly smile

"I don't know are you stalking me now?" She asked in return.

I turned to her with a confused look on my face

"Eli, really its fine. I'm not mad."

"It sure doesn't look like it. Can I make it up to you? Can I take you on a date?" I asked sweetly

"Hmm, I'm pretty busy you know with starting a new school and all. Not to mention that my sister and I have auditions tomorrow to be on the schools show so sorry no" she replied sarcastically. I am going to have to beg aren't I? She is playing hard to get.

"Clare I don't get it. You say you're not mad but you're acting like you don't ever want to see me. Is it enough for me to say that I like you and I want to spend time with you, Blue eyes?" I saw something in her facials change. She turned towards me and her face had softened. I did it! I made her crack! It was just a matter of time until she wants me to.

"That's very sweet of you Eli but the thing is I'm not that easy. Sorry" She shrugged her shoulders and turned back to the English teacher who was now starting her lecture.

I knew it was too good to be true! I need to do something and something good but I have no idea what. I needed help. So I sent a quick text to someone I knew I could trust with anything.

"Adam, she's making me beg what do I do?"

Clare POV

"Clare how long are going to make him try so hard?" Alli asked as we sat down in the courtyard for lunch.

"I don't know maybe another day or so. Believe me it's not that easy. He is so freaking sexy and its driving me insane but I was so angry when I seen Julia kiss him."

"But even Adam said that he truly had broken up with her and that she's just a major psycho!"

"I know and I believe him. I guess I am just having some fun. I didn't move here to jump into a relationship unlike some people" I eyed her and she put her hands up in defense and then just laughed at me.

"Hey ladies" Drew said while kissing Alli on the cheek.

"Hey" I said nicely. I really did like Drew. He was a good guy and treated Alli like a queen.

"Clare I have to say I don't know how you are doing it but you are driving Eli insane." Adam said when he sat down next to me at our table.

"Oh really?" I said with a big goofy grin plastered on my face.

"Yes! He has been asking me all morning what he is doing wrong and if you like him. You do like him right?"

I shrugged my shoulders trying to play it off but Alli thought she could butt in. "Of course she likes him!" I kicked Alli under the table.

"Good because he's walking over here right now."

I turned to see a very anxious looking Eli. He had a single red rose in his hand and a gorgeous smirk on his face.

"Clare." he stated as a hello.

"Eli" I retorted

"I honestly feel bad about you thinkins that I led you on. That was never my intention. I want to ask you again; can I please take you on date?" he asked me while putting his hand in front of him trying to hand me the rose.

I looked up at him and with the sweetest of smiles I took the flower and stood up. "Thank you so much. The rose is beautiful."

"So is that a yes?"

I looked at him from underneath my eye lashes and said "Sorry Goldsworthy but I told you I'm not that easy." and with that I walked away smiling at the look on his face. It was a look of pure astonishment. I had to admit that although this was fun playing hard to get it was also very difficult. I just wanted to melt under his gaze but I have been hurt in my life enough to know that if someone truly cares they will do anything and everything for you.

The rest of the day went by smoothly. I finished with all my classes and met some great new people. I was really getting the hang of Degrassi and so was Alli. By the end of the day I met up with Alli to go home but on our way to the car I noticed some one standing beside it. With that handsome smirk on his face Eli looked at me and I thought I was going to faint at how gorgeous he was. It was like every time I seen him it kept getting better.

"So I was thinking. If you won't let me take you on a date then can I at least walk you home? It will take ten minutes of your time. I just want to talk to you. Please?" Eli asked me and I knew I couldn't resist.

"Ok fine but just a walk home. None of your fancy handing out rose's thing you pulled earlier."

"Deal!" He said smiling so wide I thought he was going to burst.

I waved bye to Alli who was also grinning from ear to ear. She was way to obvious with what she was hoping would happen.

We started walking in the direction of my house. It was a gorgeous day outside. The leaves were turning colors and the slight breeze was making them shake in the trees as if they were dancing. I turned to a very happy Eli and couldn't help but smile.

"Ok so you want to talk? About what?"

"Everything; I want to know what goes on in that beautiful little head of yours."

"Beautiful?" I asked shyly "You must be on something" I laughed

"Hmm last time I checked I wasn't." he chuckled "Clare if I'm being honest with you, I think your gorgeous and sexy as hell." Oh my God did he just say that? My cheeks felt hot.

"And you're really cute when you blush like that too." Oops he caught me. I giggled and looked away.

"Thanks." I muttered.

"Clare, I really feel like I need to be honest with you. I don't know why but I feel like I owe it to you. I have known you for like three days and I already like you so much. You drive me crazy but in a good way. Is that weird?"

Was he kidding? Hell No it wasn't wierd! "No it's not weird I think it's sweet." I smiled

"Ok good. Look I'm so sorry about this morning. Julia and I are definitely not together. I broke up with her last night. I have broken up with her before but we always got back together and she thought this was another one of those times. But it wasn't."

"Am I the reason you broke up with her? I don't want to be." I said honestly

"No, she had it coming. You were just an added bonus." He laughed. "I just don't want you thinking I'm some kind of creep because I have known you for three days and am trying to win you over."

"I don't think that, it's just exactly what I told you. I'm not that easy. If you haven't noticed, I'm kind of a very reserved person. I don't rush things; so don't take it personal."

"Do you like me at all?" He was being sneaky but I wasn't going to let him win that easily so I just shrugged my shoulders and smiled.

"See you are so confusing!"

"But you keep coming back though don't you?" I paused and he nodded. "Only time will tell."

We were arriving at my house and he walked me to my door.

"Time huh? How about this, by the end of the week you will say yes. By Friday I will make you fall for me."

I arched my eyebrows curiously. "And just how to you do you plan on doing that?"

"Oh but you see that is a secret." He walked a little closer to me and my heart started beating really fast. He then placed a small and tender kiss on my cheek and said "Have a good night my Blue eyes. I will keep trying until I have you in my arms." With that he walked back the direction we just came from and I stood there silently at my front door to shocked to move.

I eventually got a hold of myself and went inside. Alli of course was waiting for every detail and I had to spill every detail. She was so nosy at times but I loved her.

The rest of the week went by really fast. Alli and I had our auditions on Tuesday with the producers of the show and since our new friends were starring members of all of it, it looked like we were a shoe in. The cameras had started following me around which was kind of weird but cool at the same time.

As far as Eli was concerned in his "You're going to fall for me thing"; Every morning until Friday I would walk up to my locker and a single red rose would be attached to it with a note that asked me out on a date and every day I kept saying No. It was more of a game now than really playing hard to get and he knew this. He would just laugh when I would say No and then tell me that Friday wasn't here yet.

When Friday morning came I expected to walk in a find the same thing on my locker but I didn't. It was just a plain Orange ugly locker. I opened it up half expecting a note to fall out but there was nothing. It was strange realizing that I was really disappointed in this. I went to my first class, sat down, and got my cell phone out to text Eli.

"Did you finally decide to give up :p?" but I never got a reply. This was strange.

When my first class ended I was anxious to get to my second period English class to see if he was there. I expected him not to be there but when I walked in he was sitting in his seat right next to mine. I walked in and sat down and he didn't look at me or speak to me at all.

"Eli, are you ok?"

"Yep" was all I got out of the him.

"Did I do something wrong?"

"Nope."

Was he seriously doing this? I racked my brain to think of anything I did wrong. I couldn't think of anything except that he probably grew tired of this game and was into someone else. Why had I been so stupid? He seemed fine this week; like he was enjoying the challenge. Oh no, what if I truly lost him? I was really starting to like him. He was so sweet and caring. Every night before I would go to bed I would get a text message from him saying "Goodnight, Blue Eyes. I can't wait for Friday when I will finally have you." I thought it was cute and just let him play with it. But now it was truly over. He had lost interest and it was all because I had to get pissed that Julia had kissed him and then play hard to get. Way to go Clare!

He ignored me throughout the rest of English class and I didn't see him anymore. When lunch came I was so pissed that he didn't even have the decency to tell me straight up that he had lost interest. A warning would have been nice.

"Clare, are you ok? You seem really tense." Alli asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine, just a little mad is all."

"Why? Is it because you didn't get a rose today?"

"Not just that but Eli has been ignoring me all day. He wouldn't talk to me at all during English or answer any of my texts! He is acting really mad at me. I think I blew it Alli. He doesn't want anything to do with me." I said as I rested my head down on my arms.

"Are you sure? Because from where I'm sitting it sure doesn't look that way." She said

I looked at her in confusion and as I did I started hearing music. It was a beautiful melody that was carefully written and being played with a guitar. I noticed everyone had stopped what they were doing and were facing the direction behind me. I slowly turned around and my mouth dropped.

I then noticed what everyone else was staring at. I saw Eli with a guitar strapped around him at the top of the steps in the school lunch courtyard. Cameras were all around him trying to catch the moment but he just ignored them. He was focused on playing this beautiful and delicate music. He was staring right at me as he was slowly making his way towards me. Everyone was silent and all eyes were on him. He then did something I would have never expected in my life. He started singing. Not just singing to himself or just some random person; he was singing to me. With the most deep, husky, sexy and angelic voice I have ever heard. It put anyone with a record deal to shame. But it wasn't the voice that made my eyes start to flood with tears. It was the words that he was singing for me.

"Your beautiful eyes, stare right into my eyes. And sometimes, I think of you late at night, I don't know why.

I want to be somewhere where you are. I want to be where,"

"You're here your eyes are looking into mine so baby, make me fly .My heart has never felt this way before. I'm looking through your, I'm looking through your eyes.

"I wake up, I'm alive in only a little while I'll cry, 'cause you're my lullaby. So baby come hold me tight, 'Cause I; I want to be everything you need, I want to be where."

"You're here your eyes are looking into mine, so baby make me fly. My heart has never felt this way before; I'm looking through your, I'm looking through your eyes."

"Just as long as your mine I'll be your everything tonight.

Let me love you, kiss you, baby let me miss you. Let me dream about, dream about, dream about your eyes."

"Eyes, Eyes, your Beautiful Eyes."

By the time he had finished I was standing up with tears in my eyes and staring straight into his. We were only inches apart.

He smiled and looked and gazed at me. "Clare, will you let me look into your Beautiful Eyes and know every day that you are mine? Will you let me have you?"

I knew right when he started singing and when he just asked me this that my life would never be the same. That I was going to someday fall madly and deeply in love with him; and I knew I was ready for that.

"Yes." Was all I could say but that was all he needed. He then cupped my face into his hands and leaned down and placed the most gentle and sweet but yet passionate kiss on my lips. In that moment Eli had won, he had been right; by Friday I had fallen for Elijah Goldsworthy.

Yay!They are finally together! So now it's time to tell me what you think! Review time! :) BTW I didn't write that song! It's by Taylor Swift! Love her!
