Recap: "Clare" "Yeah?" "Why did you lie to me?" I turned to face him. Oh fuck!

Clare's POV

How the fuck did he know? I thought for sure he wasn't paying that close attention. Maybe I could play this off.

"Lie to you about what?" I said trying to be a cute. "I know your not a virgin" when he said those words I knew for a fact then and there that was the end of me and Eli.

"….. I umm I'm soo sorry Eli." I started to break down crying.

"its not like I didn't want my first time to be with you, its just we broke up and then I met Jake he didn't stop me like you did so I did it. But it was horrible, not like imagined, not like this was, and it was only once.."

I kept rambling on but he soon hushed me, by placing a kiss on my lips. When he pulled away I didn't know what else to expect. He turned to me and said "listen I don't care what happened when we weren't together, all that matters is we are together now and that is that, I just wish you hadn't lied to me, that's the one thing that bothers me the most." I could feel the sincerity in his eyes as he looked down into my watery blue eyes.

"I'm soooo sorry, seriously it tears me apart." I was still crying

"Why didn't you just tell me, I hated to find out that way." he asked me and he looked really hurt.

I sat up still crying my eyes out "I thought you wouldn't want me anymore, I thought you'd think of me as a salvaged title, a slut, a whore, someone you didn't want, someone who betrayed you."

He sat up with me and put his arm around me "I could never think that of you, even though I wished your first time was with me, it doesn't change my view on you, I love you "

"I love you too" he then kissed me on the forehead and we lied back down. I lifted my hand and started looking at my ring.

I slipped it off, grabbed Eli's hand and placed it in his palm "This belongs to you, always have and always will" he smiled and put it on his pinky. I laid my head on his chest and fell into a deep sleep, I didn't want to be anywhere but here.

Eli's POV

Sure I was pissed, I was furious, but I didn't want her to feel any worst than she already did. Plus we had just got back together did I really want to ruin our relationship for a second time, no I think not.

When Clare fell asleep after giving me her ring, I couldn't stop but think how Jake took the one thing Clare had been throwing at me the entire time we were together. To be frank it was heart breaking.

I honestly hated Jake, I thought at first he was a cool guy because of the way he acted when he found out about Clare and me, but now I feel like he had a hidden motive.

It just hurts me that she thought I could think so low of her. I love her and I will except her for all her flaws. When you love someone, you love all of them... you gotta love everything about them, not just the good things but the bad things too. The things that you find lovable and the things you don't.

But regardless of how I felt about Clare I needed to talk to Jake because I had a feeling he had a hidden plan to being so supportive.
