To Be With You
Disclaimer: I don't own nuttin! Just the idea, and the characters you don't recognize. I don't own any songs I use either! Don't sue me! I have nothing!
Summary: The title pretty much sums it all up, it's an Eli/Grace fic. This is my first one so please, pretty pretty please, R&R! I'll update faster if you do!
Chapter Seven: I'll make you see
Everyone was downstairs eating breakfast in a hurry, everyone except Eli. "Hey, Jessie. Have you seen your brother?" Rick asked. Jessie shook her head no and glared at Grace. Rick got up and went out to the garage. "Eli? Are you up?" "Yea dad. I'm just getting dressed!" Eli replied. "Ok, just making sure. Hurry up ok? We only have about 2 hours until I go to work. Then your on your own." Eli opened the door, "Done!" he smiled and walked into the house after Rick.
"Morning Eli!" Lily said cheerfully. Eli smiled, "Morning Lily, Jessie, Zoƫ......Grace." Grace looked up and caught his eye but turned away just as quickly. "Momma I have to go get my bookbag then I'll be ready!" Lily nodded, "Ok." Eli looked at Jessie who just shook her head and frowned.
*Why won't she even look at me? I can't stand it, this has to stop now, I'm going to go talk to her!* Eli made his way around to the stairs. Jessie stared at him and mouthed 'what are you doing?!?!?!' Eli just smiled and started up the stairs.
"Uh, Jess? Where did Eli go?" Jessie was on the spot. *Oh think of an excuse comon' think, think, think!* "Um, he uh-----he went upstairs to borrow something from Grace." Rick looked confused but shrugged it off as nothing. *Probably a CD or something.*
"Grace?" Eli opened her door cautiously. Grace turned around quickly staring at him. "Eli-----uh, um----do you need something?" *God! Why am I so stupid? Just tell him that the date (which never happened) was nothing, and the kiss did mean something! I am just scared, why can't I just say it to him?* Grace fidgeted nervously and sat down on the bed. Eli sat facing her, "I think we need to talk about what happened. We can't just pretend it never did and avoid each other forever Grace." Grace nodded in agreement. *I know he's right. But why is it so hard?*
Grace began to say something but the sound of Lily's voice made her stop, "Grace we are leaving now! Eli if your still up there Rick is ready to go!!!!!" Eli looked at Grace pleading with her to say something, anything. Grace just got up, grabbed her backpack and went to the door. "Grace.." Eli started. But he was too late, she was out the door and down the stairs. He sighed and finished what he was going to say, "why are you afraid of me?" *I don't care how long you avoid me Grace Manning. You will listen to me, I'll make you see.*
A/N: I know you guys are going to kill me right!?!?!?! Heehee, that's' ok thought because the next chapter should be longer (it's kinda a continuation of what this chapter should have been), I just got stuck on this one and didn't want to drag it out too far. Sorry!
