HEY GUYS! So someone said that I shouldn't tell you guys any hints on the next chapters do you guys want me to continue doing that or not? Also let me just say that this chapter is going to SHOCK all of you so much. BE PREPAIRED. HAHA well let's get on with it.
Clare's POV
After the rest of the dance last night Trent drove me home. He got out of his car and walked me up to my door.
"Clare, I really like you… And I had a lot of fun tonight…" Trent said. He was nervous I could tell.
"I like you too Trent… I had fun too…" Trent then leaned down and kissed me.
"Goodnight Clare." He said then walking away. Oh god not again…
Trent is going to be different than the others. That's what I keep telling myself.
I went to school the next day in my usual new attire. Some ripped red skinny jeans and a black tee shirt with a skull on the front of it. My black eye liner and blood red lip stick. But today I straightened out my curls.
I walked out the door and Trent was standing in front of me!
"Trent what are you doing here?" I asked him.
"I'm taking you to school; I figured it would be a nice thing to do." He said blushing and looking away.
When we got into his car I knew it was time to talk about that kiss.
"So Trent… that kiss last night…" I started off.
"Well, I was kind of hoping that you might want to be my girl… what do you say Clare?" Trent asked me.
"I would love to Trent… but wait a week. I just got over a breakup so…" I said to him.
"Ok, I guess I could wait a week, but until then friends ok?" Trent said.
"Of course." I said. By now we were at the school. When we walked in Trent walked me to my locker. I can tell that were going to be very good friends for the next week…
He walked me to class too…
"Trent, you don't have to come everywhere with me you know" He sighed.
"PLEASE. I want to so nobody takes you while you're not mine yet." He pleads.
"Alright fine, but I doubt anyone would want me as there girlfriend anyways." I say to him.
"Of course they all do, Clare you're amazingly beautiful but your taken next week!" Trent says.
I head into class and Trent goes to his. This is going to be a LONG week.
Eli's POV
By morning some blood was still coming out of my cut but not much. I had to put some gauze around it. I guess I need to skip school today I can't let anyone see this cut. Honestly I don't feel living anymore. I don't what I'm going to do. I can't live like this anymore.
I ran outside and got in Morty. I was just going to drive. Drive anywhere all day long. But first I need to check the park. I drove there and stopped Morty. I got out and sat over by the tree. I was running my hand over me and Clare's names. Then my phone started to buzz in my pocket.
It was Declan. I completely forgot we had exchanged numbers that night of the accident.
The text said.
Hey man. My sis is having a party at my place tonight want to come?
Great People… but Declan is a pretty decent guy so… ok.
Sure man
Then I got one more text from him.
Ok, meet outside Degrassi at the end of the day and we can go somewhere else before the party, see u then
Yippee… This ought to be fun… I guess I can't really drive too far today. I need to be back by 240 so I guess I won't go anywhere.
I sat there at this tree all day long. But at 200 I went home to get this gauze off and clean up a bit.
I tore off the gauze and stared at the cut on my skin. It was now covered in dry blood. I went to the sink and cleaned off my arm. I put on a long sleeve black shirt and a gray blazer, some gray and black jeans and of course my black combat boots. Then brushed through my hair and I was done. I got into Morty and drove to the school to meet Declan. I waited on the school steps until everyone started coming out of the building. I stood up and found Declan.
"Hey Eli, want to go to the Dot?" He asked when he found me.
"Sure, ill drive." I say leading him to Morty, I knew he didn't drive himself to school he got his driver to do it… I just hope he isn't too freaked out, everyone but Adam and Clare thought Morty was a crazy car to be driving.
"Dude you drive a hearse! Cool." Declan said. WOW. Ok this is going better than I thought.
We got into Morty and drove off to the Dot. We went in grabbed some coffee and talked until it was time to go to the party. We started to drive to Declan house when one of my favorite songs came on… It was Pain by Hollywood Undead. I didn't think it would be Declan's type of music but me and him instantly both started to sing along with it…
The necks of this youth
With their necks through this noose
Were told lies like its truth
And we suspect that it's you
So you strap them with the AK
Its mother fucking may day
They swear I'm fucking crazy
Aint nothing going to save me
"Dude you like this song too?" I ask Declan.
"Yea man, Hollywood Undead is like one of my favorite Bands." He said.
"Cool." Soon we pulled up to his huge house and you could already see lights blinking and hear the music that was filling the house.
We walked in and he walked me over to his sister.
"FI, this is Eli, show him around please." Declan said going to greet some of the others that came to this party too.
Fiona showed me where the drinks and snacks were, she showed me the dance floor and where everyone was hanging out.
I was surprised when I saw Adam here. Me and him of course started to hang out and talk then two girls walked over to us, ones name was Hayley and the other Jamie. Hayley had on a pink and black dress that was sleeveless and Jamie had on a green and black dress just the same as Hayley but different colored. Hayley started to talk with Adam and Jamie started to talk to me. She led me into one of the empty bedrooms so we could try and hear what each other was saying.
"So, Eli maybe we should go out sometime." Jamie said to me. Oh no…
"I'm sorry Jamie I would love to but I can't…" I said to her.
"Oh, ok…" She looked a little disappointed.
"Listen the only reason is there is this girl… I was completely in love with her but her parents died and she was sent to her aunts… her aunt didn't approve of me and we couldn't be together… I was in love with her for years and we had a lot of complications… I promised her I would always be there for her and I would wait for her forever in case she ever needed me and if that day ever comes I'm going to be here for her and her only…" I say to her.
"Oh my god… well this girl has an excellent person looking out for her… don't worry Eli I'm sure she will come back to you someday. Don't lose hope ok?" Jamie said.
"Thanks… your pretty cool Jamie." I said to her.
"Thanks… we should probably get out of here before people get the wrong idea." I nodded and we went back out to meet up with Adam and Hayley. When we found them they were talking with Declan and Fiona. The party was almost over so I decided to leave early. I said goodbye to everyone I had been talking too and got into Morty. This wasn't a bad night…
Clare's POV
So a week had went by and it was Monday. As soon as I walked into school in my ripped up black skinny jeans and red tee shirt that had a broken black heart on it I saw Trent waiting for me at my locker.
"So, Clare will you be mine?" He asked holding out a black rose for me.
"of course." I took the rose and he kissed me on the lips. Something tells me he has been waiting to do that.
3 months later…
Trent is so sweet, it's been at least 3 months of dating now and he is so amazing… well except for one little flaw… he cuts himself A LOT. I mean I'm constantly checking his wrists and I see at least three new ones every three days… so it's like everyday… I keep telling him to stop and that I'm worried about him but nothing seems to work.
I walk into school and Trent comes up to me and wraps his arms around me tightly.
I give him a small peck on the lips then I ask to see his wrists. I almost cry at what I see… 13 CUTS!
11 are all going down in a row and then two diagonal ones right threw them all! Also these are deeper then he usually does. I couldn't help it a tear escaped my eyes and he pulled me into him again letting me soak him shirt.
"Clare, please don't cry. Im sorry I cut but my parents were having some issues and I told them to stop fighting and got punched really hard so I got super upset and I cut." Trent explained.
"Trent, I worry so much about you…" I say hardly getting the words to come out of my mouth.
"I know Clare, but don't worry about me, I promise I wont get hurt…" He says.
"Trent, cutting yourself is getting hurt!" I say still sobbing.
"I mean, it isn't going to harm me. I promise." I nod and hug him tightly.
The school day went by pretty fast and Trent gave me a ride home from school. I went home did homework and then I figured that I would just listen to some music for a while.
I laid there on my bed listening to my favorite songs and thinking. Then I heard my phone go off.
"Hello?" I said answering it.
"Clare, this is Trent's mother." Trent's mom said.
"Oh hello." I say worried. Why is she calling me…
"Honey, Trent's in the hospital… I think you should come down so I can explain." She said. OH MY GOD.
"Alright ill be there soon, what room is he in?" I say worried.
"201 on the second floor." She says.
"Bye." I say hanging up. I take my Aunts car and drive to the hospital. I only have my learners permit but I guess this is all I can do.
When I get there I run up to Trent's room and he isn't awake.
"Oh Clare, you're here." Trents mom said. She was crying. She came up and hugged me.
"What happened?" I questioned her.
"Trent's gone… imp so sorry… He cut too deep into his wrist and lost to much blood before we found him…" I didn't know what to say. He promised me he wouldn't get hurt! He said that he would have no harm come to him and now he is dead!
I ran out of the hospital in tears. ANOTHER FUCKING HEARTBREAK! I JUST CANT WIN!
I drove home hardly seeing anything because I was crying so much.
I ran up to my room and I knew what had to be done. I need to go. I need to go see Eli. Even if he doesn't love me anymore… I know he will never stop caring.
I take out the last letter and I am about to open it when I look at the time and my Aunts going to be home in a few minutes! I need to leave now if I want to get out of here!
I take the letter and I pack a bunch of my stuff into a few bags. I load up the car and I hit the road. Off to good old Toronto I go…
DID YOU ENJOY IT? I did… haha! Anyways I think that if you really want to know what happenes next with Clare and Eli you might want to REVIEW. I think 80 will do the trick :)
HAPPY READING! (told you it was shocking)
