i know these updates are coming quick. but i'm bored (: IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM AM I BASHING HOMESCHOOLED KIDS- I AM ONE MYSELF! just wanted to clear that up (: Review! Need 5 reviews for next update!

After talking to Eli friday at the Dot,I couldn't stop thinking about him. I couldn't wait to see him tomorrow at school. I'd have to wait till her English class, but it was worth it. This is crazy, I barely know the guy, yet can't wait to see him. Am I rushing? I've never had a relationship before, let alone a boyfriend. I don't know how these things work...

When I woke up the next morning, I made sure to look my best for him. With form fitting jeans that showed off my curves, but no too much. I am still waiting till marriage to have sex, so I didn't want ot give off the wrong idea. I paired them with a plain white tee and a nice jacket. Simple, yet cute.

Alli and I met at her house, and then walked to Degrassi. I went to my first 3 classes, then to lunch with Alli. I looked around for Eli to invite him to sit with us, but I didn't see him. The bell rang, so I made my way to my English class. I sat next to Adam, Eli's best friend and waited for him. He never showed. After class I asked Adam if he knew where Eli was. All he said was he was sick. I believed him and went on to my other classes.

It was the same thing the next day, and the next day. I guess Eli really is sick. I tried to get a phone number from a few of his friends, but none would give it. So, I asked Adam if he knew what was wrong.

"Eli... he's just sick. I think it's the flu." He said.

"Well, what's his address? I wanna take him some soup." I replied.

"I don't think he wants any visitors." Adam said, looking into his locker.

"Please Adam... I really need to see him." I begged.

Adam was silent for a moment until finally caving. "Fine.. but you didn't hear it from me."

"Thank you." I smiled before heading home. Once I got there, I did my homework and made Eli some chicken noodle soup. I then headed to his house. I knocked on the door to be greated by Eli.

"Clare? What are you doing here?" He asked, with a slightly confused look on his face.

"A-Adam told me you were sick and I wanted to bring you some soup." I replied, with a small grin, hoping he wasn't made.

"Uhm... Come.. come on in." He said, stepping away from the door. I followed him in, as he closed the door behind me.

"So this is your place?" I asked, trying to make converstion.

"Yup" He said, popping the P, faking a cough.

"Your not really sick are you?" I turned to look at him, bumping his chest, knocking the hot soup all over myself.

"Oh my God. I'm so sorry. Let me get you some dry clothes." He replied before running upstairs to his room. A few seconds later he came back with some sweat pants and a Dead Hand Shirt.

"T- thanks." I replied before running into the bathroom, changing. I came out, feeling a little self-conscious wearing a guys clothes.

"Here, let me take those." Eli said, reaching for my clothes. I handed them to him, he then disapeared into the laundry room.

I took a seat on the couch, as he returned. He took one look at me then said,

"Damn. You look good in my clothes." He smirked.

I blushed, "Thanks."

"are you sure your okay?" He asked, sitting next to me.

"Ya, I'm fine." I looked up at him, smiling.

"Okay.." He paused, "Wanna watch some tv?"

"Sure" With that, he turned the tv and began flipping through the channels. We were sitting on seperate sides of the couch, but he still managed to notice the goose-bumps on my arm.

He got up and returned with a blanket, handing it to me. I smiled, thanking him, as he sat down, returning to his tv. I tried relaxed into the couch, being sure not to touch him.

"I don't bite." He said, smirking at me. I guess he could tell I was a bit uncomfortable. I moved a little bit closer to him, as he put his arm around me, pulling me to him. He pulled the blanket over us, being sure to keep me warm.

Once I got a little move comfortable, I evenutally dosed off. I quickly woke from my nap when I heard the door open. Jumping to the other side of the couch, not knowing who was coming in.

"It's just CeCe and Bullfrog... my parents" He said, motioning me to come back over.

Very quietly, I moved back over, as they came in.

"Hey Eli, we're home." A deeper voice said. That must have been Bullfrog.

"Babyboy, who is this?" A higher voice said, Cece. She made her way to the front of the couch, seeing my face.

"This is Clare. She's a new student at Degrassi." He replied, focusing on the TV.

"Hi Mrs. Goldsworthy." I said, being polite.

"Please dear call me Cece." She said before exiting to the kitchen.

"They seem nice," I whispered to him. He just smiled before kissing my forehead.

"Clare?" He said, looking down at me.

"ya?" I said, focusing on the tv.

"I... I think I'm falling for you."

another cliff hanger? what ya think?
