A/N sorry it took so long to post again, my choir was honor choir for Disney so I was extremely busy; also including the school choir, the Disney choir, the church choir, and the Tri-M society….so I had a busy schedule, but thank you for being patient.
So last time I left on this story Clare and Alli were going over to Adam's to have a movie night with him and Eli so here it is…..enjoy
Clare's POV:
"Come on Darcy lets go!" I looked over at the clock on my nightstand and than back at my sister, "we still need to pick up Alli and it's already 7:45!"
Darcy turned around and smiled at me "Don't worry Clare I'm done anyways; text Alli and tell her we are on our way" she turned and walks out the door.
Alli we are on our way to pick you up
-Clare
Okay I'm ready see you than : )
-Alli
I grabbed my coat and walked out of my room; I can't wait to see Eli.
He has been in my thoughts since I saw him earlier that day. His eyes, his hair, his heart-melting smirk, the kiss we shared just moments before I left was just…"Clare!"
My thoughts were interrupted when Darcy called my name; "Let's go!"
I rushed downstairs and gave my mom a quick kiss on the cheek before walking out the door after Darcy.
"Does mom know where I'm going tonight?" I turned and looked at my sister as she began to pull out the driveway; she looked back at me with a devious smile, "Umm Darcy?"
"Well she knows your going to a movie night; to whose house I said Adam's, she didn't mind because his mom is on the school board committee right?" she spared me a quick glance to see me nod than continued, " I told her his friend would be over and you would have Alli; and as for the staying late at Adam's house I told her that you and I were going out to eat later; so she wouldn't get suspicious."
When she finished she had a wide smile across her face; my sister had thought of everything! From the boys, to the time! I looked over at Darcy and smiled as we reached Alli's house.
Eli's POV:
"Adam do you have everything ready yet?" I looked towards the kitchen where Adam was preparing snacks; minutes later he walked out with a huge bowl of popcorn, and an equally huge bowl of chips. He set down the stuff and than walked back in the kitchen to retrieve the soda.
"Yep, that should be everything." he wiped his forehead with the back of his hand and than plopped down on his couch; he looked up at me and smiled " so what movie did you pick"
I gave him my signature smirk and pulled out the movie Adam and I have watched a million times. Mirrors was such a perfect movie to watch! Why? Because it means Clare will need someone to comfort her. Adam caught on to my intentions; he smiled and than bowed his head down and laughed.
"Did you bring both parts?" I nodded and took out Mirrors 2. Adam sat up on the couch and looked at the time on his watch. " It's 7:50 they should be here soon; are you ready?"
Of course I was ready! All day all I could think about was her, Clare Edwards, her marvelous blue eyes, her intoxicating smell, her beautiful short curls, and our kiss was just…. "Hello earth to Eli!" Adam pulled me out of my thoughts has he waved his hand vigorously in front my face. "Still day dreaming about Clare" a smile crept up to his lips as I turned around and began to put the movie in.
*Ding Dong*
The doorbell rang and I instantly turned around to look at the door. Adam laughed at my excited expression; he got up off the coach and walked over to answer the door.
" Well come in girls…" Adam began as he ushered in Clare and Alli; "…welcome to my home." Both girls walked over to the coach and sat; my attention was fully on Clare.
I long to kiss her again…her plump pink lips. " Umm Eli?" I focused my attention back on my friends than on my thoughts; I looked over to see who had said my name and surely enough it was Clare.
" Oh sorry….um what did you say Clare" she looked down and blushed. I looked over at Adam and he began laughing.
"She asked what movie we're watching?" he answered for her. Wow Eli good move! So busy thinking about her that you completely ignored her!
"Oh we're watching Mirrors" the girls nodded; I knew they wouldn't bother to argue because they wouldn't win.
I put the movie in and we all sat. Adam and Alli sat on the far end of the coach; while I sat in the middle next to Alli with Clare on my right, at the edge of the couch.
The movie screen popped up and I pressed play. A couple minutes into the movie I could tell Clare was terrified; I leaned in and whispered in her ear "It's just a movie Clare" she looked up at me and smiled.
A scene came up that terrified Clare; she jumped closer to me that she was almost on my lap. The minute she noticed how close she was she began to pull away, but I grabbed a hold of her hand; I pulled her back next to me pressing her to my side. I wrapped one arm around her shoulder and let her lean into me; she looked up at me and I kissed her temple. A crimson blush rose to her cheeks and she looked down.
She looks so beautiful when she's is shy. I looked back down at her as she rested her head on my shoulder. I looked over at Adam and Alli who were both smiling. As the movie ended everyone began to get up.
"Well before we put the second part on; anyone who has to use the restroom or something do it now" Adam stated as he walked up the stairs to his room. Alli looked over at Clare and mouthed the words "do you need to go?" I could feel Clare shake her head no. Alli walked away into the hall to use the restroom.
Clare began to get up as if she felt awkward but I pulled her back down. She looked up into my eyes and blue clashed with green.
"What are you doing" she asked, but I didn't answer. I intertwined our fingers and pulled her closer to me. She looked confused, but as soon as I began to lean in she did too.
Our lips met hesitantly, but as soon as the kiss began it didn't end. We only pulled away to take slight breaths; I glided my tongue across her lower lip begging for entrance, she excepted and I slipped my tongue in. I explored every inch of her mouth and than she searched mine; our tongues fought for dominance as we sat there for what felt like forever.
We didn't want to pull away, but we were interrupted "Umm Eli, Clare" we pulled apart short on breath and looked up at a smiling Adam. Clare's cheeks returned to a bright red as she pulled away from me and looked down.
"So are we ready to start the next movie?" Alli came in oblivious to what had just happened. Clare and I both nodded while Adam sat back down next to Alli and laughed. I heard Alli whisper "what'd I miss?" Adam leaned in and whispered in her ear; she turned back and looked at me with a smile wide across her face; I gave her my signature smirk and than started the movie
I interlocked my fingers with Clare's and pulled her next to me. She still didn't look up at me. Sigh. I touched the tip of her chin lightly with my fingers and pulled her face up to look at me.
"Clare are you embarrassed?" our eyes never pulled apart as she nodded her head yes. I leaned down and planted a sweet kiss on her lips. "Don't be" she smiled up at me and laid her head on my shoulder.
I felt my phone vibrate so I pulled it out as I received a text from Adam.
Are you guys a couple now?
-Adam
Are me and Clare a couple? Did she even want to be a couple?
I looked down at Clare and thought; she noticed me staring so she looked up and met my gaze, "What's wrong?" she asked, I thought for a minute as I wondered what to say.
"Clare are we a couple?" I whispered to her; she looked as confused as I did when she answered back, "I don't know? Are we?" I pondered for a moment; does that mean she wants to be a couple?
"Well Clare…." I looked straight into her eyes; with my thumb I lightly touched the tip of her chin, "…..do you want to be my girlfriend?" Clare smiled and leaned into press a short kiss on my lips. "Yes" she answered back, I smiled and gave her another sweet kiss.
I took my phone back out and replied to Adam.
Yes we are : )
-Eli
I know this will be a great year now that I have Clare as mine. I thought to myself I returned my eyes to the movie.
So I tried to make it long. I hope you liked it please R&R. this is not the end of the story….now that Eli and Clare are a couple it will just continue as Eli and Clare fluff. This story is far from done : ) thank you!
