Hi! Thanks To Lazy To Log In for reviewing 3 times, and The Cliffhanger Girl! Ok, ready to start updating alot more often...I'm super tired so enjoy! :p
Clare's POV
Accident prone. Mental. Disabled. Loser. Shy. Freak. Slut. Hoar. Bitch. Liar. Weirdo. Ass. Lesbo. Outsider. Crazy. Insane. Incapable. Different. Different.
There are so many words out there, and just one perfectly describes me, different. Eli's always said I was different, special. It's been 2 months after the incident, and my past won't let go of me. I almost died, drowning but Eli saved me, by putting me on a boogie board, then a life guard took me to safety. To look at my life, it's pathetic. A sixteen year old girl in love with a perfectly normal, well voluntarily different guy, and I said my first word at 16. How pathetic?
Jake went to jail, and fined, though I feel more lost than ever. Eli went away to CeCe's family reunion, Jake's gone, Adam's too lost in love to care, Alli and Jenna are the best of friends, and Mom and Glen have been arguing. Life, sucks.
Glen and Mom in their room, yelling at each other. Please, stop fighting. I think, praying that it'll work. It didn't. "Your son is a rapist!" Mom says angrily to Glen. "Your daughter's a disabled bitch!" Glen snaps back. It hurt, hearing that. I've always thought that Glen is kind, but I was plain wrong. "Send her away! We can start a family, disown those two brats, live together, with more kids." Glen whispers. "Ok, Glen!" Helen moans, as she hears the bed.
No POV
"CeCe, I get it. Aunt Mary's sick, we're staying here for another week. But Clare needs me, please, I'll be right back." Eli tells CeCe, and goes out the hotel door. Driving to the airport, Eli smirked as he saw a tall, tan female with auburn, straight hair, who goes by the name of Darcy Edwards. "Darcy?" Eli asks, and she smiles. "Damn! You're hot!" Darcy gasps. Eli giggles, and opens Morty's door. "Thanks." Eli replies, and starts the drive. "You're seriously driving me to Toronto?" Darcy asks. "Yes." Eli answers.
"So Eli, tell me about yourself." Darcy starts. "Well, I'm Elijah or Eli Goldsworthy and I'm a senior at Degrassi." Eli starts. "Oooo, older men….for Clare." Darcy teases. "You can say I'm different. I like to listen to punk rock, I wear mostly gothic and emo clothing, and I drive a vintage hearse named Morty. I have a reputation of being a schemer, and can be unpredictable at times. I love this guitar pick necklace, gothic style, and my lopsided smirk. I'm bipolar takes medication for it. I'm best friends with Adam Torres, Fiona Coyne and Imogen Moreno. Oh! And I'm dating your sister." Eli introduces.
"Wow, you're…different." Darcy gaps. " Yeah…Clare's different, I'm different…we're different." Eli replies, looking into the road. "So, Darce, what made you want to go home?" Eli asks. "So many things, and I've been gone long enough, leaving Clare through all of this. Is our parents still fighting?" Darcy asks, and Eli gasps. All of this time, Darcy's been gone, not having a clue what's been going on in her family's life. "Well, they got a divorce." Eli started, waiting for a 'What?' or 'Oh my god' but instead, he gets Darcy sighing. "You ok?" Eli says. "I've always known they were going to split." Darcy answers. "Oh, your Mom got remarried, you have a step-brother." Eli informs her. "WHAT? Any they never told me?" Darcy gasps.
After a few moments of silence, Eli turned to Darcy. She was crying, and Eli sighed. "Eli, can I tell you something?" Darcy asks, sniffling. "Sure, of course." Eli agrees. Darcy exhales, and wipes off her tears. "Thanks, thank you for everything you've done with Clare. I was ashamed, and tired. Mom and Dad's fighting, the fact poor Clare was disabled and it's just was only one year left of high school. One year, and I could've got my diploma…but seriously. Thank you. You've made Clare's life better." Darcy thanks, and Eli smirks. "Hey, you know me…well you don't….but I love your sister, so much." Eli replies, and Darcy smiles. Maybe life can get better.
