Clare's POV
I felt his hot breath traveling down my back, his plump lips hovering over my shoulder. I maneuvered my neck to the left to give him a better angle, already feeling him place butterfly kisses down my neck, giving me a burning sensation in the pit of my stomach. I try to contain my moans, although they slip from my lips unconsciously, moaning out his name. I could already feel his smirk radiating off his lips onto my skin.
"If you want me to stop Clare, all you have to do is say so." He whispered huskily, sending shivers down my spine.
"No, don't stop." I whispered, enjoying his sweet kisses.
"What's that, Clare? I didn't hear you." He said teasingly.
Ugh! I could pretty hear the eagerness in my voice, "Please, Eli. Don't stop!"
"Are you sure, Blue Eyes?" He questioned while placing gentle kisses across my shoulder.
"Yesssss!" I slurred as Eli slowly placed me down on his couch, him on top of me.
He looked down at me, his eyes filled with lust. He swooped down, his lips engulfing mine in a swift motion. His tongue licking my lips, begging for entrance. "Mmmm…" I moaned, allowing him full entrance to my mouth. He tasted so sweet.
"Eliiiii….."
Buzzz…..
Buzzz…..
I shot straight up from bed all sweaty. WOW! A good girl shouldn't be having these types of dreams, leaving me all hot and bothered. No!
Buzzz…..
Buzzz…..
I grabbed my cell phone from my nightstand, realizing someone was calling me.
"Hello!" I answered/screamed angry to the recipient without actually glancing at the caller I.D. I have the right to be angry with this person; they just woke me up from the best dream of my life!
"Clare?"
Eli! Oh, no! What do I do! What do I do! Think Clare!
"Ummm…no. This is her father. Who is calling?" I answered now in a more muscular voice.
I can already hear Eli chuckling in the other line. Why is he chuckling?
"Clare, I know that's you."
Damn it! How did he know?
"How did you know?" I asked returning once again to my regular voice.
"Well, first of all, why would your dad answer your cell phone, or even remotely have it? Second, you do a horrible impression of a guy. Hahaha." He chuckled.
"Ohh…" I replied, now totally embarrassed.
"So, Clare, I'm kind of curious. Why did you pretend to act like a guy, more specifically your father?"
"Umm…well, you see, when I answered the first time, I answered you in an annoyed and throaty voice. I didn't want you to think that I'm like that every morning, it's just that you woke me up from a very intense dream."
"Well Clare, would you mind telling what was so wonderful about this dream, hmmm?"
Ugh, I was hoping he wouldn't ask.
"Ummm…..is there a reason why you called?"
"Avoiding the question Edwards? All right I'll get it out of you sooner or later. Anyways, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out today?"
I didn't have to think twice to answer that question.
"Sure! Pick me up in an hour?"
"Of course, see you soon blue eyes."
"Bye."
"Bye."
I jumped out of bed and headed to the shower. After I got out, I blow dried my hair and combed it, a fatal attempt to tame my curls. I looked through my closet, finding my baby blue flowy blouse with a small black belt right below my breasts. I put on my black skinny jeans and placed on my navy blue flats. I went to my vanity mirror and added a light touch of silver eye shadow with a hint of eyeliner. Not to sound self centered, but I looked good!
I looked down at my wristwatch, noticing I still had half an hour till Eli shows up. Hmm, might as well watch a movie till then.
Click…
Click…
Click…
Ugh!
30 minutes later…..
Eli's POV
Okay, right now I'm parked in front of Clare's driveway, but there's still ten minutes left for it to be a full hour! I f I go right now, It'll seem as if I'm desperate. But, if I'm late, I'll look like a jerk. Although if I'm on time, it'll look like I was waiting outside her front door till the clock hit exactly 10:00a.m. for me to knock on her door. What do I do! Decisions, decisions. No girl has ever made me think so much about knocking on a door! Could I be any more pathetic?
Oh no! I'm late! It took me fifteen minutes just to think if I should knock or not. Guess we're going with jerk then. I hopped out of Morty and sprinted to Clare's front door. I composed myself to make it appear as if I wasn't just outside my soon to be girlfriend's house and ran my way here, to her front door. Even though I was. I don't want her to think like I was.
I knocked on her door and waited patiently, soon enough the door opened and Clare came out, beautiful as ever. I sucked in all her rare beauty with my eyes, from head to toe. She looks gorgeous! I guess she notice me starring since I could already see the blush creeping up her rosy red cheeks. Focus, Eli! Back to reality!
I cleared my throat, "Hi, blue eyes, sorry I'm late."
"It's ok, shall we go?
"We shall."
I led her to Morty, opening the passenger door for her.
"Thanks Eli, I see chivalry isn't completely dead."
I smirked, "Yup, I intend to bring it back".
"Hahaha." She giggled while hopping into Morty. I love her laugh!
"Buckle up, blue eyes".
She buckled up as so did I and I started the engine, backing out of her drive way and onto the main street.
"Where are we going, Eli?"
"If I tell you, it wouldn't be a surprise, would it?"
15 minutes later
"Are we at the park, Eli?" Clare questioned.
"Yeah, why? You don't want to hang out here?" I asked disappointment etched in my voice. Before I could hear a reply from her, I saw her jump out of Morty, heading towards the swings. I'll take that as a yes, I chuckled to myself.
I jumped out of Morty, chasing her to the swings. I finally reached her and grabbed her by the waist. I twirled her around in the air like in those cheesy movies, but I don't care. The sun hit her face just perfectly, giving her an angelic glow, she looked gorgeous. Her blue eyes shining with joy. Her cute giggle erupting into a fit of laughter. She just looks so cute. Soon enough, I found myself laughing with her.
I placed her gently back on the ground, giving her a small peck on her forehead. She looked up at me with a small blush on her adorable face and a sheepish grin. I couldn't help myself, I smiled back at her. No one has ever made me smile as much as Clare has in one day, making her even more special to me.
I swooped down, gently grabbing her hand and leading her towards the swings. I soon felt her entwine our fingers together, sending a smirk to my face. I led her to a swing, gesturing her to sit. She sat and I started pushing her, the gentle breeze hitting her face, sending those beautiful curls of hers flying all over her face. Her smile spreading from cheek to cheek. It's been about twenty minutes of me pushing her and my arms are starting to cramp. You know what, though? It's worth it, if it means having Clare smile.
She's worth it.
"Eliiiii! Not to high!" She shrieked.
"Hahaha, oh, blue eyes, live a little."
"Eli, seriously, if I fall, I'm not afraid to go and kick your but!" She giggled.
I chuckled at her threat and teased her, "Feisty aren't we? Alright, alright, blue eyes."
I stopped her from swinging and next thing you know, she tackled me on the ground! Her curls flying onto my face. I inhaled her sweet scent, she smelled like vanilla, mmm. Her scent left me in a daze, that I didn't realize her starring.
"What's got you so happy?" She asked innocently, admiring me with her baby blues.
"You."
She ducked her head in an attempt to hide her cute blush, but I lifted her head making her stare into my eyes, no way was I going to miss out on her adorable blush. I let out a small chuckle escape my lips.
"Thank you, Eli. No one has ever made me feel so special before like you."
"It's my pleasure, Clare-Bear." I smirked.
"Don't call me that!" She whined.
"What? Isn't that what they call you?"
"Yes, but I like it when you call me blue eyes. I feel special."
"Alright then, I'll only call you blue eyes."
"Thank you."
"Oh, and Clare?"
"Yes?"
"You are special." I smirked at her and once again that little blush of hers reappeared. It seems like I can never stop this girl from blushing.
I leaned towards her and so did she. Her sweet lips teasing me, craving for her warmth. Our lips finally connected and the feeling was overwhelming. A good kind of overwhelming, all our emotions combined, hitting me like a ton of bricks. Filled with as much passion as we can muster. The kiss is perfect, it's slow, sweet and all out, innocent. It wasn't all sloppy and desperate which made it all the better. Our lips moving perfectly in sync with each other. I licked her bottom lip, begging for entrance to that lovely mouth of hers , without hesitation, she complied and opened her mouth for me to explore. Our tongues danced together earning me a gentle moan coming from her mouth, leaving me in a haze . She tastes so sweet. Our kiss can only be described with one word: perfect!
We parted in need for air. Both of us having a dizzy sensation overwhelming us and on cue we both awed at the same time, "Wow!"
"Definitely." I countered.
I noticed the sun was setting, even though I dreaded this moment, I told Clare, "Clare, I hate to be the bier of bad news, but it's getting late and I don't want you to get in trouble with you parents."
She scoffed, "Like they would care, I don't think they even notice I'm gone."
What? Is she having problems with her parents?
"Why would you say that, Clare?"
"Because, ever since my parents are filing their divorce, they're using all the time they have left with each other to get under each other's skin. Forgetting all about me." She replied with a hint of sadness in her voice. Her eyes glazed with unshed tears.
I moved myself over to Clare, giving her a hug, while she hid her face in the crook of my neck. I wrapped my arms around her, patting her back and soothing her with my words, "Don't worry, Clare, You'll see, everything will turn out for the better."
"No, Eli! It won't My OWN parents don't care about me! I have no one!" She screamed now crying.
"You have me blue eyes. I'm not going anywhere."
"Really?" She whispered.
I showed her one of my rarest smiles and said, "Of course, Clare. You're stuck with me, like it or not."
Her face broke out into a smile and I kissed away those unwanted tears of her, earning me a giggle from her.
"I like your smile, Eli. You should smile more often."
This, of course, earned her a smile from my part.
"You know blue eyes? I don't smile very often, not at all even. But somehow, you are the only one who actually makes me smile genuinely. Proving that you're more special to me than I could ever imagine."
"Thanks, Eli. In such a long time, you've actually made me feel as if there is something worth living for..and that's you . I like you a lot, Eli. You know that?" Her smile never fading.
"I like you to, Clare. More than I ever thought possible." I smiled her way.
"C'mon, Clare. Let's get you home before it's too late." I said, reaching out for her hand.
We entwined our hands together, walking towards Morty.
Clare's POV
We reached my house and Eli, came around to the other side of the hearse, opening my door for me. Such a gentle man. He walked me to my door, hand in hand. Once we reached my front door, I turned towards him, embracing him with a hug.
"Clare?"
"Yes, Eli?"
"did you break up with K.C., yet?"
Ugh! I still have to deal with him.
"Actually, I haven't. I wanted to break up with him in person, actually. Breaking up with him over the phone or a text, seems rude."
"It's ok, Clare. I understand, but you're still going to break up with him, right?" He asked nervously.
Of course! No way am I going to lose you!
"Of, course, Eli. I promise! I would much rather prefer you than K.C. any day!"
"I'm glad to hear that, blue eyes." He said while leaning over, engulfing my lips with his. His kisses, sending shivers all the way to my toes. Leaving a tingly sensation on my lips every time. His soft lips dancing with mine. This feeling caused by his kisses, is something I'd never get tired of. It makes me wonder how I could have lived so long without out his kisses. And I never want to spend the rest of my days without them anymore.
This kiss was shorter than the one in the park, but still perfect.
We separated, with a gentle suction sound coming from our lips.
He looked deeply into my blue eyes and I could feel the small blush coming back to my cheeks.
"Thanks again for today, Eli. It's been one of my best." I smiled.
"Mine too, Clare. Thank you. I'll call you tomorrow?"
"Yeah."
"Bye, baby blue."
"New nickname?"
"Yeah, you don't like it?"
"Of course, I do. Bye, Eli."
"Bye, Clare." With that, he kissed me on the cheek and went into Morty.
I gave him one last wave as he left to the main street.
I went into my house and got ready for bed. That night Eli, filled my dreams.
The Next Day
I woke up with a smile on my face, remember my day with Eli, yesterday. I haven't felt this way for someone, since…well, with nobody, actually. I'm kind of scared for my fast and strong feelings I have for Eli, but I know he's worth it.
I got out of bed, took a shower, changed into my clothes. I ran downstairs and ate some yummy french toast and I noticed a note from my parents: 'Clare, your father and I will be gone for the rest of the day, finalizing our divorce. We'll see you at dinner, honey. Love, your father and I. Of course another day alone in the house! Great parents, they are!
When I was putting the dishes away, I hear the doorbell ring. Hmmm? I wonder who that could be? Eli said he would call, I didn't expect him to show up. Ah, who cares? The important thing is that he came. I walked up to the door all happy and smiley. Once I opened the door, my smile vanished completely.
"K.C.?"
