Eli picked me up at my house to drive me to school, we pulled into the parking lot of Degrassi, found a parking spot, and Fitz walked over to Eli's hearse as we got out and ripped his hood ornament right off.
"Give it back" Eli stated
"Or what"
Eli got up in Fitz's face.
"Fitz give me the skull now" I stated
"For a price"
I took out my wallet.
"Name it"
Eli was about to say something to me
"Your virginity" Fitz said before Eli could even open his mouth
Eli turned around and punched Fitz right in the face.
"Eli!" I shrieked
"What?" Eli asked as he walked over to me leaving Fitz on the ground
"I can't believe you hit Fitz"
"Well he deserved it for hitting on my girlfriend" Eli said as he grabbed my hand
"Girlfriend?"
"Well I know I didn't ask you out and yesterday with KC you said we're together"
"We are I just like it when I'm asked"
Eli looked at me and rolled his eyes
"Clare would you go out with me?"
"Of course just don't expect me to change much"
"I wouldn't so the Dot after school?"
"I might go swimming."
"So wait we're dating and yet you don't want to hang out"
"I like you, you're cute and all, but I don't like getting hurt no offense"
"I don't understand you"
"Good because I'm not one who's easily understood I'm me take me or leave me"
I skipped off inside leaving Eli way behind. When I got to my locker Alli was there.
"So how's your new boyfriend?"
I shot her the death glare.
"So Clare what's up with shooting Alli the death glare?" Adam asked as he walked to his locker
"Nothing just that she dared me to kiss Eli and then KC came over and Eli left a mark on my neck when I told him not to so I'm dating him now and it's all Alli's fault" I said is a whisper so no one but Adam could hear.
"Well did he ask you out?" Adam whispered
"Yes" I replied back
"You didn't have to say yes" Adam whispered back
"Well I didn't want to lose my reputation of being a badass and gain one of being a slut" I said pointing to the hickie Eli left
"Oh" Adam mumbled
"I blame you" I said to Alli coldly
I threw my books in my locker, shut it, then leaned against it.
"Ready for class Adam?" I asked
"Sure so are you going to the dance with Eli now?"
"Yea of course" I said
"You know you have to dance with him right?" Adam asked
"I know, but that doesn't mean I'm going to fully open up to him."
"Oh Clare did you see Fitz today?"
"Yea Eli kicked his ass because Fitz mentioned wanting to take my virginity."
"If that doesn't tell you how much Eli likes you I don't know what does and what about your virginity and Fitz wanting it please explain"
"Ok well long story short Fitz broke Eli's skull off his car and wouldn't give it back so I asked Fitz what he wanted for it and pulled out my wallet Fitz said my virginity Eli decked him"
"See Clare he does like you"
"I know that Adam, but I can't trust him, hell you're the only guy I can fully trust"
We walked into Mrs. Dawes class and took our seats Eli was already there sitting in front of me.
I sat down and started to play with my necklace. I decided to put a necklace on this morning I have so many from my dad I don't normally wear them. The bell rang breaking me of my thoughts
"Your necklace is almost as gorgeous as your eyes" Eli said as he turned around and passed back papers I took them and smiled as he turned around. I took one and passed the rest back.
I looked at my necklace and remembered it's the one the bought me for my fourteenth birthday. It's a flower with an opal center and crystal blue leaves I guess or the blue gems are the flowers it's rather confusing.
"Ok class you will work on this questioneer with your partners" Mrs. Dawes stated
"You know Eli you're sweeter than you are badass"
"I know I try"
I laughed.
"So Clare after school what are you doing?" Adam asked
"Swimming with some juice possibly"
"You know you're not supposed to drink in the pool"
"I know, but it's fun" I stated
Eli laughed.
"Well I'll send Alli over or I'll stop by with Fi, or your wonderful boyfriend can stop by"
"I'll stop by around 5pm?"
"Ok that works"
Eli and I finished the assignment and turned in our papers. Eli, Adam, and I ate lunch together at the Dot. The guys are mainly talking and I'm glad to find out Adam and Eli have a lot in common, Adam now has a guy friend to hang out with and they're hanging out on Saturday which leaves me home alone to do my "Clare" things within the rules.
"So Clare what are your house rules?" Eli asked as he sipped on some cola
"No setting the house on fire-"
"Again" Adam said
"Again?" Eli choked
"I was watching Coyote Ugly and decided to dance on my bar with a candle lighter and I blew some Jack on to the fire and you probably know what happened"
Eli laughed
"No sleeping on the roof since I almost fell off, no blaring the radio or TV, no prank phone calling people, no renting rated R movies"
"Wait Clare I didn't know you rented a rater R movie!" Adam said shocked
"I didn't know Law Abided Citizen was rated R" I stated 'Oh and I'm not allowed to sell my mom online"
Eli choked on his cola "You tried to sell your mom online?"
"She was pissing me off I got grounded for like 5 months with no TV, no music, no Adam, no Alli, no human contact other than my mom, and I was home schooled for those five months"
"Clare hugged the ground when she went outside then jumped on me and picked up Alli" Adam stated
"Wait you were stuck inside too?"
I nodded "Total torture."
Eli and Adam laughed.
"Oh and I'm also not allowed to turn my basement into a swimming pool"
Eli looked at me and raised an eyebrow.
"The whole five months I was grounded for I couldn't go swimming so I filled up the basement with water."
Eli rolled his eyes. "You really are the rebellious and feisty type aren't you?"
I smiled, then we went to school. After school I went home opened a bottle of Vodka, changed into my swim suit and went swimming in my pool.
"Oh sweet vodka and swimming how I love thee." I mumbled to myself as I floated on my inner tube.
I ordered pizza before I got totally wasted and went back to my pool and continued to drink and float around until I heard the doorbell. I put my bottle of vodka by the pool and went to the door.
I looked out the window to see Eli.
"Hi" I said as I opened the door.
"You're soaked" Eli stated
"I just go out of the pool wanna join?" I said letting Eli inside
"Na I'll sit this swim out"
"Suit yourself"
I walked up to my room and threw a towel over the balcony, went back in my room, climbed out my mom's window since it faced the back yard, and walked out on the roof.
"Eli" I sang as he sat on a lounge chair.
"Clare you're drunk get down"
"Ok I'll get down" I yelled back
I dove off the roof and into the pool.
"You could've hurt yourself" Eli yelled once I surfaced
"Yea so it's not like I haven't hospitalized myself before from doing one of my stupid stunts"
"Then why keep doing them?"
I shrugged my shoulders.
"Where's my bottle of Vodka?" I asked as I looked for it
"In the trash" Eli said
"That's ok I have more in the basement" I stated
"Yea well I'm not letting you drink as long as I'm here" Eli stated
"And when you leave-"
"We'll be going to school" Eli stated
"Right who said you can stay the night?"
"I did, someone needs to make sure you don't kill yourself"
"So I guess I can't object"
"Nope you can't"
Eli leaned over into the pool, tried to kiss me, I pulled back, tugged on his collar, and bought him with me.
"You're lucky I took my shoes off while you were in your room" Eli stated when he surfaced
I splashed him, shortly later the pizza came and I started to lose my buzz.
Eli and I watched movies for the rest of the night and we ended up sleeping in my room.
