Chapter 7 - Date

Eli's POV

"No! No way am I getting in that!" Clare shrieked.

"Come on Clare, it's just a car."

"Can you even call that a car?"

"Him. Can you call him a car."

"What?"

"Him. It is a him. Name's Morty."

"You named your car Morty? Like mortician?" I nodded my head. "That makes this even more creepy!" She exclaimed.

"Come on Clare, he's not going to hurt you." She looked a me skeptically. "Don't you trust me?"

She looked me in the eyes and grumbled fine. I opened the door for and she sat down.

"Okay," I started as I got in the car. "Hoe do you get to the Dot?"

"You know, sometimes I forget you're new. Anyways, you go down this street, make a left at the light, then make a right at the stop sign and it's on your right."

"Thanks." She nodded her head as if she was saying no problem. When 1 parked the car, I got out and opened Clare's door for her.

"Didn't know you were such a gentlemen Goldsworthy."

"Only for you Edwards, only for you." I said that in a serious tone. I seriously doubt that I would this for anybody else, but she doesn't need to know that. it might creep her out considering the fact that we just met. She led me to a table in the back and waved the waiter over.

"Hey Peter."

"Baby Edwards! How's it going?"

"Good, you?" I couldn't help but feel a little jealous, I mean I was being completely ignored.

"You know, the same. How's Darcy?"

"She's good, missing you though."

"Tell her I say hey. So, what can I get you guys?"

"The usual." Clare answered.

"I'll have a black coffee." I told him.

He flipped his shaggy hair and said "Coming right up."

"So, who was that?" I asked her.

"Peter, my sister's boyfriend. Well, ex-boyfried. Actually, I don't know what they are now, but yeah you get the point." She tambled.

"Oh."

"So I don't know anything about you, why did you move to Toronto?" Clare asked. "Not to be nosy or anything." She added nervously.

I chuckled. I was considering telling her the truth, but I knew I couldn't do that. Maybe one day though. "Oh you know, the usual with a twist. Parents got transferred. Didn't want me to move here without a friend, so my best friend Adam and his brother moved up here too."

"That's cool. My parents would never do that." She laughed, then sighed. I guess her family is a sensitive subject for her.

"So, now tell me something about you." I said to her.

"Are you sure you wanna know about me?" She asked.

"Everything."

"Okay, it might take a while." She added, trying to persuade me to drop the subject.

"We've got time." I countered.

"Fine. Well, let's start with my sister..."

AN - Don't kill me guys! I know I haven't posted in forever after I promised that I would, but I had a good excuse. I was grounded and my computer got taken away. It sucked. But, I'm back and I should be for a while. Hopefully, I won't get into anymore trouble, but you never know. So anyways, tell me what you think about this chapter...REVIEW!
