Clare's POV

Eli and I were upstairs in his room sitting on his bean bag listening to his iPod, with me sitting in his lap. His arms encircled me and I snuggled against his chest. I inhaled deeply, smelling his sweet, but masculine, scent. I guessed that he decided to use Ocean Spray today instead of Day Old Trout. I smiled, remembering the story about the Dead Hand tickets from Eli.

"Having a good time smelling me?" Eli asked, whispering in my ear. His breath was hot against my neck and I could the blush rising to my cheeks.

"I was not smelling you," I protested. Eli smirked.

"Have I ever told you that you're a really bad liar?"

"I'm not lying!"

"Clare."

"Okay fine."

"So you were smelling me?"

"Eli, you already know the answer to that," I said exasperatedly. Eli laughed.

"What's so funny," I asked him, frowning.

"You're so cute when you blush," he said to me, his lips grazing my ear. This caused me to blush even more and gained a smirk from Eli.

"What song is this?" I asked Eli when another song started.

"The Kill by 30 Seconds to Mars. Listen to the lyrics." Eli and I sat there and I listened closely to the song, smiling as I felt Eli bob his head to the beat.

What if I wanted to break?

Laugh it off all in your face.

What would you do?

What if I fell to the floor?

Couldn't take this anymore…

What would you do? Do? Do?

Come break me down.

Bury me, bury me.

I am finished with you.

Look in my eyes.

You're killing me, killing me!

All I wanted was you!

I stopped staring at the ceiling and glanced at Eli. He had closed his eyes and his head was slowly swaying to the music.

I tried to be someone else.

But nothing seemed to change.

I know now, this is who I really am inside.

I found myself.

Fighting for a chance.

I know now. This is who I really am!

Come break me down.

Bury me, bury me.

I am finished with you.

Look in my eyes.

You're killing me, killing me.

All I wanted was you.

Come break me down.

Break me down.

Break me down, down down!

What if I wanted to break?

What if I?

What if I?

The music faded off and the song ended. I looked at Eli again, and he opened his eyes and smiled at me.

"Wow," I said to him as I took the ear buds out of my ears. He had a connector for his iPod, so he used his headphones and I used my ear buds. "That was a good song."

"And you thought you wouldn't like my music," Eli said with a smirk.

"I didn't say that!"

"Of course you didn't," Eli responded, a twinkle in his eyes. His arms pulled me closer to him and he whispered in my ear.

Eli's POV

"All I wanted was you," I whispered to her. She started to blush again and I smiled. I kissed her cheek and her head turned, her lips meeting mine. She kissed me sweetly, and I pulled her closer, deepening the kiss. My tongue grazed her bottom lip, and she granted me entrance. I explored her mouth and our tongues met in a graceful dance. She suddenly pulled away.

"Eli, what time is it?"

"Don't know, don't care." I tried to kiss her again, but she dodged my lips. I sighed. I moved Clare off of my lap and got out of my bean bag. Picking up my phone from my nightstand, I flipped it open. 10:57 pm.

"It's almost 11 I said to Clare." A worried look appeared on her face and she chewed her bottom lip nervously.

"Oh, I should've been home a long time ago."

"Did you really want to go home?" I asked her, curious. She looked at me, and then smiled.

"No." I smiled back at her.

"So then…do you…want to stay the night?" Clare gave me a strange look. I threw my hands up in my own defense. "I promise not to try anything. I can even sleep on the couch if you want me to!" I said. She laughed.

"It's fine Eli. I trust you."
