Chapter Four!

Clare's POV

I was already up and downstairs. Today I honestly felt like sweat pants and a tank top but that wasn't gonna fly because my WHOLE dad's family was coming over right after school.

When I say whole family I kind of really mean it. Uncle Nathan and Aunt Karen, cousin Boston and Sidney. Mannn, I couldn't stand Aunt Karen… she was so uptight about what her kids wore and ate.

I mean Aunty dearest…. You're kids aren't going to be athletes and super models…let them eat what they want! My Grandma Phillis and Grandpa Phillis. Man, was I looking forward to eating Grandma Phil's cookies.

Aunt Barbra and Uncle Keith, and cousin grace. Aunt Lee and Uncle Kris, Cousin Olivia and their dog Kaymen! I saw Darcy and darted up the stairs with my mug of green tea.

I hopped into a skinny slouch jeans with a Lucca couture bustier. I put on a jean in furs vest. I did my smoky eyes and then stepped into Dolce Vita harness heel boots. I slid on my Sabina pocket bag and put on my contrast cat eye sunglasses.

My hair was curled and I was downstairs. I looked for everyone but they weren't in the house. I went to the back yard and saw my mom and dad playing games and rushing the kids to clean and round up all the mess.

"Good morning!" I yelled waving. No one paid a lick of attention so I decided I would just leave, "Good Bye!" I said walking to my car. I got in the car and saw Eli's leather jacket. I picked it up and all the thoughts of last night rushed to my brain.

I hadn't turned him down, neither had I told him yes. I figured I'd tell him what I thought of him. I really did like him, not because he is one of the populars but because when I actually spent time with him…it's different.

Eli's POV

I woke up and didn't bother with taking a shower or getting dressed. I was already in clothes, the night before I had felt so terribly miserable I just fell asleep. I got into my car, and opened the consol.

I saw I had some Axe sitting in there with just enough left in the bottle that I could make myself smell….smellable. I was the kind of guy who needed a shower everyday. I saw a mini stick of deodorant in there too.

Okay, I was really upset but I didn't want to gross people out. My raven black hair was clinging to my forehead, my eyes were dilated a dark emerald green and my breath smelled like….morning.

I pulled out a packet of wisps. I brushed and spit rubbed on deodorant and sprayed myself with Axe. I really didn't feel like school today, but I had a really big test I had to take. I rolled into the school parking lot and saw Clare getting out of her red car with her pals Ali and Bianca.

I got out too and walked far behind them listening to their conversation that was oddly about me.

"Clare, why the hell did you tell him you don't like him?" Bianca asked flailing her arms around.

"B's right I mean this is the first guy you've liked since K.C last year. I mean Jenna and him are such ass's. You deserve better. Better like a certain green eyed dark haired E-" Ali said before Clare cut her off.

"Because, I don't want to get hurt ever again. I mean honestly if we ever happen to date then… I know he wouldn't want to stay around. That's WHY K.C said. He said that I was way too much to handle and that Jenna was way easier going." Clare said.

Huh… I can't believe she actually likes me. I know what I'm going to do.

I raced to fifth period just before the bell rung. I bumped into a chubby blonde walking with a big guitar hanging on her back. "Sorry." I said trying to help her up. "Don't touch me. Do you know who I am?" She yelled at me.

"No?" I said confused. "Jenna Middleton! Co captain on the cheer leading team! Excuse you." She said pushing past me shaking it off. Ahh, Jenna. Easy going. Ha, I don't think so.

I slid through the door way and I took a seat in my chair next to my friend Fiona. After it was over I saw Clare walk towards her locker. Perfect. She opened her locker, and I watched as Clare's eyes met with a light blue rose.

She reached out a bony hand and picked up the white card rested in the middle shelf in her locker and read it.

Dear Clare,

Look I know you think I want absolutely nothing to do with you but you're absolutely wrong. I want everything about you. I love everything about you. I love you're family. As big and crazy as it is…there is nothing more I could ask you for.

She closed the note and placed it in her locker with her pale red chapped fingers. She picked up the rose and turned around. I was standing right behind her with my hands in my jeans with a smirk planted on my sideways lips.

"Why blue?" She asked tilting her head. I looked down still smirking. I walked closer to her and placed my large hands on her waist pulling her to my torso. "Because of you're insanely gorgeous eyes." I said.

She smiled and looked down at my hands. "Eli, are you sure… I mean, I am a lot to handle. I don't know if it's more than Jenna but I definitely am a hand full." She said giggling.

"What if I want you in my hands?" I asked. She giggled and said "Then I'd be crazy to say I don't want to be in them." She said. I smirked back at her and swooped down to capture her lips in a fight for tongue dominance.

She began to kiss back threaded in her delicate hands into my dark hair pulling at the strands. We began to feel a crowd for around us to cheer on the kiss, but we didn't come up for air long enough to notice.

After I got home I got a text from Clare.

Hey baby just letting you know my parents want to meet you Saturday night. Is that okay? My whole family will be here, their visiting so I figure what better time than to meet them when they are here?

-Clare3

I smirked at the heart and texted back agreeing and sending her love and a good night. I closed my phone and rested my head on a pillow before I heard a knock on my door. My mom walked in with my baby brother asleep on her hip.

"Hey, baby boy. You're father and I are going to catch a movie, can you watch Thomas? He's already sleeping" She said grasping my chin kissing my head. I guess she noticed my smile because she asked me why. "Why are you smiling like… a goof ball?"

"Because, Clare…is my girl." I said proudly resting my arms behind my head and closing my eyes.

I hope you guys liked it; it took me a while to write this one because I had to think of how Eli would tell Clare he wanted to put up the nonsense and drama. I don't personally like it… yeah it's terrible but right now I really think you guys deserve this chapter! Next one will be up soon.

Whoop am I excited also my family is going to visit our family in New York for Christmas, we are already packing because…yeah we get a little side tracked and we REALLY do have a lot to pack…And we also have to visit Cape Cod for my dad's side of the family.

Anyways….I'm telling you this because I don't know what to get my cousins, One of them is a 14 year old girl name Natalee who is on a swim team and loves to read, the other is a 10 year old girl named Valentina who ice skates and likes gymnastics.

Then the boy is named Michael Paul who likes Star Wars and plays base ball. My mom has two twin brothers so the other brother's kids are Bella who is 6 years old and loves Ballet and princesses. The boy is Michael Joseph who likes Indiana Jones and base ball.

Also I'm telling you this because I'm supposed to be going to the city and going shopping with my 17 year old sister Sarah and I'm going to be making a November Story for Eli and Clare. Also a December Story.

I am going to tell you all the interesting things going on in New York too. They December story is going to be called Mischief under the Mistletoe. The November on will be called Not just stuffed Turkey's. I might do an October one because…..you know Eli :) I might call it either, Seduction and Candy Halloween Horror or Sour Cherries.

I know the last one sounds funny but trust me…it's going to sexy.

Anyways, if you guys think you know what they'd like for Christmas then let me know!
