Eli's POV:

Clare has been acting really weird today. We went out to dinner and all she did was push food around her plate. She went back to work yesterday, so maybe that was why she was acting like this. I know her kids at school could stress her out.

We were lying around at home, and Clare looked so tense. She was curled up in a little ball, rocking back in forth, "Clare? Are you okay?"

She snapped her head up, "What? Oh ummm yeah, sorry."

Something was wrong. Clare never acts like this. "Clare, what's wrong?"

She shakes a little bit, "Nothings wrong. Not at all."

How can I help if she doesn't talk to me! "Clare, talk to me. I need to know what's wrong."

She sighs, "Eli. Nothing is wrong. And that's what's wrong."

What? "Huh?" I ask.

"Eli I took a pregnancy test last night." She whispers.

Oh my God, I look in her eyes, "Clare, are you pregnant?"

She shakes her head, "No."

I take a breath of relief, but Clare doesn't, "Baby, did you want to be pregnant?" I ask her nervously.

"I don't know. I never thought of it as a possibility, but when it became one, I guess I thought about it a lot and I thought maybe it could be fun to have a baby around. I don't know. I know it's stupid…" She trails off.

I take her shaking self in my arms. Dammit, she's crying. I hate when Clare cries, "Clare it's not stupid. One day we will have a baby, I promise. But I couldn't have one, not now. Clare I know how much you wanted to wait until you got married to have sex, much less is pregnant before marriage. When we have a baby, I want to do it right. Is that okay?"

She nods, "Of course Eli. I know now wouldn't be a good time, and I know I should be relived, but I don't know. I'm sorry."

I shake my head, "Don't apologize honey. We will have a baby some day, I promise."

She smiles, "Good."

"Clare?" I ask.

She looks up, "Yeah?"

"Well you see, to have a baby after we get married, we should probably get married huh?" I ask.

"I guess that would help…" She jokes.

I smile, "So when are we getting married?" I ask her.

She shrugs, "Soon."

"Weddings take lots of planning Clare." I remind her.

She shakes her head, "I don't want a big wedding."

I raise an eyebrow, "Really?"

She nods, "Too cliché. Honestly, the smaller and sooner, the better."

Is she serious? "Really?"

"I'm serious Eli. Weddings are too over done. I mean if I love you, and you love me, why should we spend the day putting on a show? If we want to get married, we should do it. Everyone else be damned. I mean darned." She blushes.

I chuckle. In high school I always thought Clare was joking when she said she hated weddings. I believe she quoted them as "people who feel the need to display their love in order to receive money and gifts." She was too cute.

"Clare what would you do if I asked you to marry me right now?" I ask.

She thinks for a second, "When do we leave?"

"Are you serious?" I ask her.

She smirks, "Are you?"

I nod, "Completely."

"Then answer my question." She demands.

Damn, she would do this, "Get dressed, we leave in five."
