So I'm thinking I lost a lot of my readers on this story and I don't know why. Are you still interested? I don't know how I get a ton of reviews on my other two stories and get about 4 on this one. Do you have any ideas for me to get more reviews? Tell some people or something. But I will NOT discontinue this story because I do have some readers. The 50th reviewer will still get a sneak peek if they want. Okay chapter 12.

Clare's POV

It has been two weeks since Eli left and I haven't talked to him since the night that he left. I know that he must busy with school and stuff but not even a text that says I love you or I miss you? Really? The worst part was he started school two weeks before me. So I don't even have homework to distract me like he does. At least I start this Monday. All I have to do is get through the rest of today and all day tomorrow. I really need a distraction from Eli right now so I decided to call Alli and Adam and ask if they wanted to hang out. Of course they both said yes. My parents weren't home so we decided to just stay at my house and chill.

DING DONG! DING DONG!

They must be here. I get up from the couch and approach the door. I open it to see my two very best friends.

"Hey Clare!" Alli squealed while giving me a hug. Adam let out a laugh and shook his head at Alli's behavior.

"Hey Alli, Adam! Come in!" I say as I open the door to let them in. We go to the living room and sit on the couch.

"So how are you doing? Have you heard from Eli yet?" Adam asked.

"Adam!" Alli yelled while hitting his stomach….hard.

"Sorry." Adam muttered to me.

"No. It's okay. I've honestly been better and no. No, I haven't heard from him." They sighed.

"It's okay though. I know he is busy and doesn't have much time." I said as I twirled my engagement ring around my finger.

"Well let's have some fun!" Alli screamed. We all smiled at one another.

"Okay. How?" I asked.

"Honey, I'm Alli. Who doesn't have fun when they're with Alli?" She replied. Adam laughed loudly. So did I.

"As conceited as that is. I agree with you. And also who wouldn't have fun with little ol' me?" Adam said. We all just laughed again. It felt good to laugh this much. It had been a while. Over two weeks in fact. Once our laughter had stopped I said,

"I want to make a pact." They give me questionable looks.

"Okay. What kind of pact?" Adam asked.

"Let's make a pact, that this is going to be the best year ever! We are seniors this year. We should have the time of our lives! And of course we need no, we HAVE, to stick together. Is it a pact?" I put my hand in the middle of the three of us. They nodded their heads as they piled their hands on top of mine. We then all said at the same time,

"Pact!" After that, our night was filled with silly games and laughter. Even though Eli, my fiancé, isn't here. I have some pretty freaking amazing friends to make up for it.

Eli's POV

I haven't talked to Clare in two weeks. I really need me a Clare fix but I can't have it. College life has been crazy. I'm talking always in class. And if I'm not in class, I'm at work and if I'm not at work, I'm doing homework. But when I'm doing none of those things I squeeze in the important stuff. You know sleeping and eating. I miss my girl everyday! It really bites that I have absolutely zero time. Except tonight. It is 11:00pm on a Saturday night and I'm for once not doing anything. Tonight is the first time since I've been here that I'm getting a break.

"Hey, dude! There is a party going on downstairs. You want to come?" Dylan asked. I shook my head no.

"Now way! This is the first time I have had nothing to do. I'm going to enjoy it." I tell him. He chuckles and says,

"Okay. Say hi to your lover for me!" He walks out of our dorm room then. Of course he knew that I was going to call Clare. Dylan and I have become pretty close which is nice since we live in the same room. I grabbed my phone and dialed the only number I know by heart.

"Eli!" She squealed.

"Hey, love! Listen I'm so so sorry that I haven't contacted you in forever. I have just been so crazy busy." I say in my most apologetic voice.

"Don't worry about it. I figured just as much." She replied. Gosh, I love her.

"So what are you doing?" I asked her.

"Well, Adam and Alli just left. We had a little friends night at my house. What about you?" She responds.

"Tonight is my first time off since I've been here. There is a party going on here and Dylan, my roommate, invited me. He told me to tell you hi by the way." I say.

"Tell him hi back. Eli just try to call me sooner, okay? I love you and I hope you are having a great time there which it sounds like you are so," She states.

"Clare, don't hang up!" I yell.

"But you said there was a party." She replies.

"No, no. Well yeah but I declined his offer. I wanted to talk to you." I tell her.

"Eli. You're in college! I don't want to be the one who is holding you back from the experiences you should be having." She says raising her voice.

"Clare, there will be other parties and you are not holding me back. I am at this place every day! You, my fiancée, I haven't seen or talked to in two weeks!" I replied while raising my voice as well.

"And whose fault is that?" She yelled.

"I'm so sorry for trying to get good grades!" I screamed back at her.

"You know what, Eli! Go to that stupid party and get your good grades! And don't even think about calling me! Because I certainly don't care!" She said still screaming. That one stung a little but I was too mad to care about that.

"You know what, I will! And I'll have the time of my life at that party!" I yelled.

"Good!" She hung up after that. All I could think about for the rest of the night was: What just happened?

So there is the next chapter. I don't have much to say except please review and give me ideas to get more readers! Thanks.
