Ok hi guys I thought I'd put up another chapter today so.
Disclaimer: I don't own Degrassi or its characters.
Clare's POV
I got up at 6:00 and took a quick shower before putting on a pair of jeans, with a blue tank top, and black flats. I then went dowastairs and had a bowl of cereal before Alli came. Once she got to the door I told her to go change which she did, then she came out in white skinny jeans, and a green tank top.
"So, what happened once you got home yesterday?" Alli asked walking out the door. We decided we'd leave early and alone again today.
"Well Eli came over and I said maybe we should give eachother some space, and he agreed." I said looking down.
"Oh Clare, I'm sorry, but that was the dumbest thing you could have done. Just because you aren't going to the dance with him, do not and I repeat do not go with Fitz." She told me.
"I'm not even gonna go to the dance." I said shrugging and walking up the school steps.
"What you have to." She said grabbing my arm.
"No, I don't and I'm not." I said walking in and going to my locker. Once I got to homeroom Alli, wasn't there yet so I sat in the back and waited for her. She walked in a few minutes later and sat next to me.
"Hey." She said grinning. "Clare, you know what I realized?"
"What?" I asked smiling at her happy mood.
"You've already bought a dress and shoes, you should just go to the dance, for me please." She said dragging out the please.
"Alli-" I said but she cut me off.
"Clare, I don't have a date either why not go together?" She suggested, putting her hands together and pouting.
"Alli, I just don't want to go." I told her shrugging.
"Clare, please." She begged getting out of her desk and on her knees.
"Alli, people are staring." I told her looking around the room.
"So, I don't care." She said leaning closer.
"Alli."
"Clare."
"Fine, just get up." I told her laughing.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you. You're a saint." She said getting back in her seat as the bell rang signaling first period. I walked into English and sat behind Eli and waited for the teacher to come in. For the first time Eli didn't turn to talk to me, and to be honest I didn't like it. Once our teacher came in she just talked the whole time about grammer. Once class was over I went to my locker and I ran into Fitz, again.
"Stalking me I see." I said rolling my eyes and opening my locker.
"I hear you and Emo boy aren't going to the dance together anymore." He said walking closer to me.
"No we aren't." I said closing my locker and turned around. Once I turned I saw Jake round the corner and I gave him a look of 'help me'.
"Clare, Adam is looking for you, let's go." Jake said taking my arm and leading me away from Fitz and to the cafe.
"We were having a conversation!" Fitz called after us.
"Not anymore!" Jake called back.
"Thanks Jake." I said before hugging him and walking in the cafe.
"Ok who were you talking to this time?" Alli asked chuckling.
"Fitz, I swear he is stalking me. Jake came to the rescue though." I said putting my head on the table.
"Clare, Jake will probably tel-" Adam started but I already knew what he was gonna say.
"I know Adam, Eli will find out and will get annoyed, again, but I delt with it." I told him. Adam put his hands up in defence but dropped it and Alli just went back to her lunch.
Jake's POV
I got to History a few minutes late but the teacher let it slide.
"Where were you?" Drew whispered poking me in the shoulder.
"Talking to Clare." I whispered back, causing Eli's head to shoot up and give me a questioning look. I rolled my eyes and mouthed,
"Fitz." He took a deep breath and went back to his work. I knew this whole space thing he told me about this morning was gonna be hard on him, but honestly I think it's best for him right now. He's acting as if he own's Clare or somthing and it's not good for either of them. I also knew as soon as class was over Eli would be asking questions. I was right because as soon as class got out Eli waited for me and once we got in the hall he asked,
"What happened?" He said sounding worried.
"Eli, look I walked around the corner and Clare gave me a look asking to help her out so I said Adam was looking for her and walked her to lunch. No big deal." I told him shrugging and rolling my eyes when he wasn't looking. We kept walking down the hall until Adam came running up to us.
"I talked to Alli, she convinced Clare to go to the dance." He said giving Eli a thumbs up. I knew what he was talking about, Eli decided that if Clare still went to the dance he'd tell her everything and I mean everything.
"Good." He said walking into Science with Drew.
"I'm worried about him." I told Adam walking with him until we reached his classroom. We said bye and I walked to Math, once I got there I sat with Bianca in the back.
"Hey." She said facing me.
"Hey." I said sighing. She gave me a quizzical look but didn't say anything. We finally got through math and I was able to go to the Science room and wait for Drew,Jake,Eli, and Imogen. Once they all came out we went to the cafe, where we were mostly silent.
"So, Eli what exactly are you gonna say to Clare?" Drew asked trying to make conversation.
"I'll just tell her I'm sorry and that I really really like her." He said looking down.
"What do you like about her?" Bianca asked.
"Why?"
"It would be sweeter if you told her what you like about her." Bianca said shrugging and taking a bite of her apple.
"Maybe." Eli said taking a sip of his water.
"Anyone wanna make a bet?" Drew asked randomly causing us all to lean in.
"What is the bet?" Imogen asked sounding interested.
"I bet 5 bucks Adam will ask Alli to go to the dance with him, at the dance." He said laughing, we all chuckled and agreed.
"I bet he asks her during the first slow song." Imogen said as Drew wrote it down on a peice of paper from his binder. It was more of a pool, we agreed that if we had the money now we'd give it to Drew to keep in his locker and if we didn't have it, we'd give it to him tomorrow.
"I bet tomorrow on the walk home from school." Bianca said after thinking about it for a few minutes.
"During the last slow dance." I said chuckling.
"Eli." Drew said looking at him.
"Tomorrow during school." He said pulling 5 bucks out from his wallet.
"Ok, nobody can tamper with this, we have to keep our mouths shut. Whoever is closest wins. Got it?" Drew asked putting the money from him,Eli,and Bianca in his binder.
"Deal." We all agreed laughing. After lunch we all went to our 4th period class which meant Imogen and I had Science. Once we got there we just listened to the teacher go on and on about the metric system until the bell rang.
Adam's POV
Finally the end of the day came, so I met up with Alli outside and waited for everyone else. Once Clare came over to us she and Alli, decided to leave so she and Eli didn't have to interact. I waited a few more minutes before Drew and Bianca walked out, Drew kissed her and said goodbye as her mom came to pick her up. Jake,Eli,and Imogen walked out after and said goodbye to Imogen before her dad got her. We then proceeded to walk home in silence, it wasn't the same without the girls around.
"Eli, you need to fix this Clare thing fast." I told him turning to walk backwards.
"Why is that?" He scoffed.
"It's not the same without the girls around and Clare doesn't want to be around so Alli, can't be around." I told him pointing at him, while Drew and Jake chuckled.
"Well I'll plan that for tomorrow night." He said shrugging. "So is Alli still gonna come to movie night then, 'cause Clare probably won't." He told me, I completely forgot about movie night because of the dance.
"I'll talk to her, and who knows if tomorrow goes well, Clare might come." I told him as we reached Drew and I's neighborhood.
"Oh wait did you guys here they are gonna mix the lunch periods up, because they don't have much time inbetween lunch periods?" Jake asked out of the blue.
"Uh, what?" Drew asked.
"Yeah they are gonna mix the 7th and 8th grade lunches, the 9th and 10th, and the 11th and 12th grade lunches." He said, I didn't know that but I couldn't wait.
"What about the 6th graders." Eli asked confused.
"I don't know." Jake said shrugging.
"Oh well, we will all have lunch together." Eli said smiling and fist bumping me.
"Ok then see you tomorrow." Drew said pulling me toward home. Once we got home I decided to go to Alli's and ask about movie night. I told Drew where I'd be and grabbed my beanie and was out the door. I walked down the street and knocked twice on the door before Sav opened it.
"Hey man." He said fist bumping me. Sav and I weren't exactly friends, but he knew I liked Alli and because Alli and I are close he was cool with me.
"Is Alli home yet?" I asked anxiously.
"Yeah, didn't you walk home with her though?" He asked confused.
"No, she went with Clare." I told him shrugging. He nodded and went to the stairs and called for Alli. She came down a few minutes later and walked over to the door. Once she saw me she smiled.
"Hey Adam." She said, I also just remembered I'm running out of time to ask her to the dance.
"I was just wondering, if Clare isn't going to movie night, are you?"
"Sure, I'll still go." She said giggling. I looked into her eyes and saw somthing in them, maybe it was disappointment. "Is that all?" She asked quietly.
"Yeah." I said turning and walking away but the voice inside my head was yelling to turn and ask her so I did. "Wait." I said before she closed the door, she opened it and walked outside with me this time.
"Yes?" She asked eagerly.
"Alli, do you wanna go to the dance with me tomorrow night?" I asked praying she'd say yes. She smiled and pulled me into a hug.
"Adam, I've been waiting for you to ask me." She told me once we pulled away. I smiled and could feel myself blush.
"I've been nervous." I told her laughing.
"It wasn't that hard right?" She giggled.
"Acctually no." I said taking her hand.
"So I'll see you tomorrow." She said smiling.
"Definitely." I smirked kissing her cheek and turning to walk away. "Oh." I said turning one last time. "Where should I pick you up?" I asked, she smiled.
"I'll be at Clare's with Bianca and Imogen to get ready, so you,Drew,Jake, and even Eli should meet us at Clare's at say 6:45ish." She said walking inside. I nodded even though she was already inside and turned to walk home. Well I acctually sprinted home as fast as I could. Once I got through the door I ran into the living room and saw Drew on the couch watching TV. Instead of walking around to sit on the couch I ran and jumped over the couch rolling over Drew in the process and onto the floor.
"Uh, dude?" Drew asked rubbing the back of his head where I hit him.
"Oh sorry, guess what?" I said jumping up and jumping on the couch.
"Um Alli is coming to movie night?" He said eyeing me amused.
"And?" I said dragging it out.
"I give up." He said laughing.
"She's going to the dance with me tomorrow night, man!" I exclaimed flailing my arms around.
"That's great man!" Drew said high fiving me. "When are you gonna get her?" He asked once I calmed down enough to acctually pay attention.
"She said her and the other girls are all getting ready at Clare's so we should all go there at like 6:45ish" I told him jumping up again. "Oh god, what should I wear?" I asked.
"Dude, you need to calm down you're sounding like a girl." Drew said laughing. "We'll find somthing but for now, just watch TV and take deep breaths." He chuckled.
"Ok." I said laughing and sitting to watch TV.
Alli's POV
As soon as Adam left I ran to the living room and rolled over the couch to get to the phone.
"Woah, what happened?" Sav asked as he took a break from playing guitar.
"Adam, asked me to the dance." I said dialing Clare's number.
"Finally, I've been waiting for you to run in and scream that." Sav said picking his guitar back up and strumming a note. I ignored him and dialed Clare's number.
"Hello?"
"Hi, is Clare there?" I asked whoever it was, I think it was Mrs. Edwards, maybe Darcy, I don't know.
"Yes, here she is."
"Hello?" Clare asked.
"Oh my god, guess who asked me to the dance?" I shreiked.
"Adam!" Clare yelled.
"Yes!" I screamed. Sav rolled his eyes and played louder, I ran upstairs and into my room so I could hear her.
"That's great Alli." She told me, I could tell I was blushing and Clare was probably smiling on the other end of the phone.
"I know, so I'll be over at maybe 5:45ish." I told her.
"Sure, and Bianca will get Imogen and bring her over at 6:00ish." She told me.
"Good, and Adam,Drew,Jake,and Eli will be over at 6:45ish." I told her.
"Right." She said, I could tell she was a little nervous about Eli.
"Clare I am so doing your make up." I told her.
"Fine, I have to go." She said laughing.
"Bye." I said hanging up the phone. All I know is I can't wait for tomorrow.
So Adam finally asked her yay. I had fun writing that part I don't know what. I also wanna say it is Munro and Thomas Chambers 21st Birthday! YAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Just had to get that out of the way.
