Long time no update, i know. I've had a lot on my mind lately (school and stuff, they decided that i should drop a 'level'. I'm not repeating this grade, but i'm going to do something else next year. I am really going to try to go back to my own classmates, just, no one can replace them. So i'm going to stop being lazy next schoolyear, and i'm also going to write more, because i feel bad for leaving everyone en then comming back months later. Anyway, i sorta figured it out and decided to pick up writing. So here i am. Enjoy the chapter! :D

Reviews are appriciated.

Disclaimer: I don't/have never/never will own Degrassi. If i did, Eli would've never cheated on Clare and Adam would still be allive.

Clare's POV

I layed down on my bed and looked at the alarm clock. 3:54 am.
I just couldn't sleep. No matter how much i turned my pillow around, changed position, i just couldn't.

I turned and turned, but i couldn't. I wanted to see the boy again so badly..

It was like a drug. I needed more. If i didn't get to see him i felt irritated and sort of empty.

Jake felt more like a friend. If he would kiss me, i didn't feel anything. No feelings, no spark, nothing at all.

I first needed to go to work. Finally, some space from Jake.

Eli's POV

I was at my house, with Adam. I called him and he came over to hang out.
We were just sort of catching up, until..

'I'm hungry..' Adam said out of the sudden.

'Yeah, me too.. You wanna order something?'' An idea plopped in my head.

'Let's order pizza.' I said, standing up.

It was crazy, but there was a little chance me and the cute girl would meet again.. It's a guess, but still. It was worth it, and we wanted food anyway.

'Allright, the usual?" I said, remebering what he always used to take.

'You know it.' Adam said with a grin.

I ordered the pizza and went back to sit on the couch. Minutes went by and I waited, my heart beating a little faster then usual.

Every few minutes I looked out of the window, to see if pizza was there already.

Then, finally, the bell rang.

'I'll get it.' Adam said, getting up.

I jumped up. 'No!'

Adam looked at me weird.

'You are the guest.. so I'll get it.. be right back.'' I said, almost running to the front door.

'Hello' I said, swinging the door open.

I looked at the deliverer, no petite auburn curled beauty..

Not were I was hoping for.

I payed him, dissapointed, took the pizza and closed the door.

Dammit. Not her. It was a stupid idea anyway..

I shook it of and walked, with the pizzabox in my hand, back to the living room.

Clare's POV

I was done working, but i didn't want to go straight to home. I decided to get some cofee at the Dot, maybe Adam was working.

It would be fun to see him again, he's one of my best friends. In high school, he was always there for me, but i havent hung out with him in a few weeks. He was probably busy.

Five minutes later, i stepped into the Dot. I looked around, but Adam was not here. I sat down and ordered some coffee anyway.

While the order was on it's way, i pulled my phone out of my pocketand dialed Adam's number. Maybe he wanted to hang out.

Eli's POV

'And like, a week la-' Adam's story was interrupted by his phone.

He looked at me with his phone in his hand. 'You mind?'

I smirked. 'I can wait.'

'Hello'

...

'Hey Clare! What's up?'

...

'Hang out? Now? Hold on..'

'Eli you want to go to the Dot? Meet my friend Clare?'

I raised an eyebrow.

'She's really nice. And besides, when was the last time you've met some new people?'

He had a point there. 'Let me get my jacket.'

He grinned and turned back to his phone.

'Yeah Clare, i'm still here. Yes i'm coming. I'm bringing my friend Eli with me, that's okay right?'

..

'Cool, see you there!'

He putted his phone back in his pocket and followed me to my car.

'She's also a journalist for the Toronto Interperter.' Adam told me. The whole ride to the Dot he has been telling me everything about Clare.

'Are you trying to pair me up with her or something?' I asked with a smirk.

'No. Too bad for you, but she already has a boyfriend.'

I parked the car and we stepped out.

'There she is.' Adam said, pointing over to a small table by the window after we entered.

That's when i froze. That was her!

I followed Adam to the table. Was this a dream?

We sat down and Adam introduced me to her.

Was this really happening?

Clare's POV

Adam was introducing me, but i was too busy staring at the boy to hear him. It was him. I couldn't stop thinking about him and then, here he is.. '..And that is Eli.' Adam said.

So he had a name. Eli. Eli..

Adam looked from him to me and shook his head. 'I need to go to the bathroom.'

While he was gone, Eli broke the silence.

'So Blue Eyes.. We meet again.'

'W-we do..' I stuttered, getting nervous.

He layed his hand on mine on the table.

'Your beautifull.'

I blushed. 'Thanks.. Eli' It felt so good to say his name out loud.

'Your welcome.. Clare.' He said with a smirk, his eyes never leaving mine.

We looked at each other, he with a smirk plastered on his face, and i with a smile.

'Nice to see you guys are getting along so wel.' I heard Adam's voice say from behind.

I mentally cursed. Why did he had to ruin the moment?

Adam looked weirdly at our hands, so i pulled my hand back.

'Did i miss something?' He asked, looking from me to Eli.

'Nope.' Eli replied, looking at me.

'Oh, allright then. I'm so happy that my two best friends are finally meeting each other.' He said.

I nodded. 'Yeah, me too.' I said, smiling softly at Eli, which he smirked at as response.

Eli's POV

Clare's kinda cute. Really cute. She's adorable.. I think i might like her. I mean.. that spark when our hands touched. And that was just a little spark. What would happen if we would kiss..?

'So how is Jake, Clare?' Adam asked her.

Damn, i almost forgot. She had a boyfriend. But.. that never stopped me before i guess..'

'He's doing good.. Very busy. That bothers me sometimes. It's like he doesn't notice me somtimes.' Clare said.

Not notice her? How could someone not notice her? She's gorgeous.. I really felt like pulling her out of the chair and kiss her right now..

An hour passed. Adam's phone went of. He pulled it out and looked at the text he just got. 'Sorry guys, i need to go.' He said, slipping in his jacket.

'Where are you going?' Clare asked.

'I'm going to meet Becky's parents. I promise i'll hang out with you guys soon again.' He walked out of the Dot and before i knew it, it was just Clare and me...

Hope you liked it. Review and i'll update :D Happy summer vacation by the way :D
