Author's Note: part 2 up! Well, I've really got nothing special to say here so, Enjoy! = )

"Aww, did I ruin your little moment?" Fitz started walking down the hallway.

"What do you want?" Eli said stepping in front of me.

"I want Clare. And I'm going to get her. All of her." He wanted all of me? There was no way that was going to happen. I kept staring at the knife in his hands, and as much as I wanted to run away, I knew that if I did, Eli might get hurt.

"Well, she's mine, got it?" Wow, I'm Eli's.

"Not after I'm done with you, pretty boy."

Fitz was now within five feet of Eli, and I was still worried about the knife in his hands. I grabbed Eli's arm, "Can you please just ignore him? I can't stop worrying about that knife in his hand. Who knows what he's going to use it for?"

"Clare, I'm not going to let him use it for anything." With that said, he turned and faced Fitz.

I was so scared that a fight was about to start, but to my surprise nothing happened. Or so I thought.

"Come on Eli, don't want to fight now?" Fitz was cornering Eli. He wasn't doing anything in his power to stop it.

"Don't do it." I heard Eli say. His gaze was at the knife now. For once, it actually looked like he was scared to death.

Memories suddenly started raiding my brain, every time I was with Eli. I always felt so happy, like I could be myself. No one else could make me feel that way. I can't begin to explain how I felt about him, and to other people it was love. Wasn't love supposed to be something incredible? Something you just know when it happens? Well, this time I know what love is. I'm in love with Eli.

"Eli, I love you!" I suddenly blurted out.

Both teens turned to face me, and Eli must have taken that chance to do something because he snatched the knife out of Fitz's hand and slammed him into the lockers. Then, he grabbed my arm and led me outside.

"Clare," he began, "I love you, too." He kissed me over and over again. I was so happy to be there with him. With Eli, the one I love.

We're both looking for something,

We've been afraid to find,

It's easier to be broken,

It's easier to hide.

Nothing in the world could ruin this moment. Not even Fitz. Memories were still flooding back, everything that we had gone through, everything that happened, now I had nothing to worry about.

Looking at you, holding my breath

For once in my life, I'm scared to death

I'm taking a chance, letting you inside.

"I can't believe what just happened." I said, staring into those bright emerald green eyes of his.

"Neither can I. All I know, is that you're here with me and that's all that matters."

I'm feeling alive all over again, as deep as a scar under my skin,

Like being in love she says for the first time,

Maybe I'm wrong; I'm feeling right, wherever I belong with you tonight,

Like being in love to feel for the first time.

We never did go back inside, just enjoying each other's company by his hearse. I couldn't help asking, "Why in the world did you ever buy a hearse in the first place?"

"Well, Clare, I don't really know myself. I guess I just like being different." I laughed at that.

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing, it's just that you really are something different. Not for owning a hearse either."

"Then what?"

"For being you" I couldn't help smiling as I kissed him once more. That time, the kiss brought us to the back of Morty.

"God, Eli, I love you so much."

"I love you too, Clare. I always will."

The kiss was about to turn into something bigger, but Eli stopped it. I was glad he did because I didn't want to lose my purity just yet, though I did trust him.

We're crashing

Into the unknown,

We're lost in this,

But it feels like home.

I'm feeling alive all over again, as deep as a scar under my skin,

Like being in love she says for the first time,

Maybe I'm wrong; I'm feeling right, wherever I belong, with you tonight,

Like being in love to feel for the first time.

Like being in love, she says for the first time.

Like being in love to feel for the first time.

Author's Note: Ok, so this chapter didn't exactly go as I had planned it in my head it just kind of came to me, but I like this version better for some reason. Sorry I didn't post yesterday I was busy with a few things. I will not be able to post today either because I'm going to the mall and then a movie. Last Exorcism here I come! Ha-ha. = )

If you want to know the song, its call First time by Lifehouse. I thought it fit the moment perfectly and it's also my favorite song. Tell me what you think and this is definitely not the end of Eclare in my story.
