Clare' POV
I ran towards Eli.
"Where are you going?" I asked. "At 2 in the morning..." Eli started "Here and there,then maybe to breakfast"
I looked up at him.."Don't you ever sleep?" "Edwards by now you should know I'm nocturnal."
Against my better judgment ..."Do you want some company?"
"Just call me misery." He said. He was so ugh!
He opened the door of his car. "My mom is going to ground me forever." I thought.
I went along with it...hitting the open road,barely no cars on the highway.
"So where is here and there?" I asked. "You'll see." He said. It was soo hard to read him,he was too mysterious.
We stopped at an old drivein. It was secluded ,covered by trees. Old black and white movies were playing out in the distance.
'Gentlemen prefer blondes?' I asked. "Say what you want ,but Marilyn is hot.' He said sarcastically. I playfully punched his shoulder,and he playfully pretended to be hurt. "Ouch edwards you have quite the arm." He reached in his glove department..
"Swedish fish,or juju beans?" I smiled,biting my lip. 'you pick' I said. "Juju beans it is..." I couldn't believe what I had gotten myself into.
'Don't choke edwards." He said. Then he faked a yawn,putting his arm around me. 'Classic move' I said. The movie was pretty short only about 45 minutes,it was a double feature though...so another movie came on,a horror movie. 'You would take me to a horror film."
"Did you really think I was going to sit through an old chick flick,if there wasn't blood and guts to look forward to." "Are you scared?" He scooted closer to me.
"No I perfer vampire flicks though." He could tell I was brushed a stray hair out of my face. I bit my lip hard. We were completely alone. He could take complete advantage of me. Luckily all he did was leave his arm around me. Then the movie finished and we drove off.
I recognized the dirt path,he made a sharp turn down the road,making the whole car feel like turbulance on an airplane. Finally the car came to a hault.
"I'm beginning to think I make you nervous." He turned to face me. "No.. I'm not nervous,I'm the furthest thing from Nervousness fears me." I started to ramble,he could tell when I was lying. "Clare your a terrible liar."
"I'm not lying."I said defensively. "Then prove it." he retaliated. "How?" I asked. "by looking me in the eyes,and saying that again." Eli smirked. I think he knew I couldn't do that, I tried,failing miserbly.
"Fine" he took his hands off the steering wheel. "I'm going to have to lock us in this car, until you tell me what's bothering you." I reached for the keys. "You are not going to lock us in a herse,in the middle of nowhere!" We struggled and argued. Then he threw the car keys out the window. "Oops" He said. I flashed back to when he accidentally put the name of a convicted arsonist on Fitz's fake id. I could not believe he just did that. "Please tell me you have a spair set of keys." Eli shook his head. "damn it." He said sarcastically. "Well go get them!" I shouted. "Uh uh I'm not going into the woods at this hour that's dangerous ." His sarcasm hits once again. "Now do you want to talk edwards?" He asked. "There really is nothing to tell." I said. "Then you wouldn't mind if I took my jacket off,cause it's going to get hot in here." My heart was racing a mile a minute. I was terrified about what I got myself into. "No" I said. Then he took his shirt,shirt off.
"Please put your shirt back on."I said. What was he planning,maybe I was right he was going to take full advantage of me. I'm stupid,stupid for going out at 2 in the morning in a herse,in the middle of no where. It was like a horror movie. "If you need to squeal edwards,go in the back cause I soundproofed it." Correction a soundproof herse. "Eli your scareing me." "No I'm tempting you,and you like it...that's whats scareing you." He said. I suddenly remembered my vampire fanfic...Count Elijah locked Clarmein in the tower,until she told him what was wrong...then he... "oh no" I thought,as my eyes widdened. "He read my vampire fiction." I knew what happened next. I was not going to let him seduce me. "You wish Goldsworthy." I said. "I've seen plenty of guys without their shirts on,so you don't bother me." I shrugged my shoulders,and looked out the dark window. There was really nothing to look at,it was pretty dark outside. "Does this bother you?"He unbuckled his belt... "you said it yourself Clare,where in the middle of nowhere." He was sounding really sexy at that moment. My inner good girl told me not to fall for it. The other darker side that Eli brought out in me,told me to go for it...but I was Clare Edwards,not Clairmein Edwardian...and It was about time I gave Count Elijah a rewrite.
Eli's POV So yesterday I stole Clare's vampire story..and early this morning when I snuck through Clares window,I kind of put it back...the Count Elijah story...I was too curious,and It was eating me alive that I didn't know what was in it,or why she didn't want me to read it. So I'm reinacting this story. It is fun. I'd never do anything to pressure Clare in any way. I just wanted to mess with her. I loved to see her nervous. I loved to see her squirm. "You smell intoxicating." I put on a really sexy voice,my seducing voice,though I've never actually seduced anyone before... "I do" Clare said. Finally she was playing along. I was going to kiss her neck. "But I can't Count Elijah." She sounded like a theater major. "Damn" She knew now that I read it. I brushed my lips against her neck anyway. This made her giggle 'that tickles' she said. "Clare,your ruining the moment." "I"m sorry,I'm tickleish." She kept giggling. I didn't think she was going to let me touch her. "Stop it." she said." laughing. Then we broke out into a tickle war. "This was not my plan." She looked down at the ground. "Then what was your plan Eli?" I didn't know what to say. "This." I said and I started to kiss her. She kissed me back and we fell to the back,hitting the ground hard,laughing.
"You really need to put your shirt back on." Clare said. "Your going to catch a cold." She stuttered,but I knew that she was enjoying it.
"You didn't tell me what was bothering you" I finally dropped the act. "The question is,what's not bothering me." She said. "No fair,you can't just turn the question on me." She didn't say a thing. "I"m tired." She changed the subject,laying down with her arm behind her head. "You can't fall a sleep in hopes of avoiding my question. She was soo cute when she slept. I grabbed my black army jacket,and layed it over her. Then I layed down ,and yawned falling asleep next to her.
I woke up to find us locked in a herse. I texted Adam. "Hey Adam,I locked myself in my car again,same place actually." "Aww man!" He texted back "I'll be right there." It took him 20 minutes,20 minutes that I watched Clare sleeping.
My phone buzzed,another text. "Where are they man?" I texted back somewhere outside the car. I could hear adam stepping on twigs,and going deep into the woods to find the keys. "Aww man!" He shouted. "That's one big ass spider!" Clare woke up. "Where's there a spider?" She ruffled my jacket. "Not here,Clare,calm down." Adam finally got the keys and opened the door. "Man put a shirt on!' Clare's eyes widdened as she saw me shirtless in the daylight. She quickly hid underneath my jacket. "I won't bite Clare." I put my shirt back on. "It's safe to come out now." Then we jumped to the front of the car. "You want breakfast?" I asked.
Suddenly Clare looked at me..."Eli I'm in the same clothes I had on yesterday. "I can't go out in the same clothes,or people will think we did something.
"Well then what do you want to do,do you want me to take you home?" I questioned. I really didn't want to take her home ever. "I don't want to go home." She said. "Here wear my jacket." I said,handing it back to her. "And what will you wear?" I didn't really now. "Guys we could just go to walmart or something." Adam said. "my tank top or my blouse?" I said looking at Eli in a flirty way. "Fine,but were going to KMart." What did I just agree too?
