Eternally Yours
Chapter Two
„But I hate that it seems you were never enough
We were broken and bleeding but never gave up
And I hate that I made you the enemy
And I hate that your heart was the casualty
Now, I hate that I need you" – Another Life – Motionless In White

Friday. Another boring lesson. The only thing what Claire did, was staying in wonderland. Almost sleep during the lesson, but it was okay, somehow, everyone got used to it. But kindda felt strange that one of the top student got down less than two month. This is a thing what love does to a people. She kept looking down to her notebook, and tryied to write down what her teacher was trying to teach but she didn't really care about it. She let out a little sigh, then turned to look outside. She was dreaming about him. In the first weeks it really hit her stomach and tryied to make her guilty about thinking in the wrong way, but in the end, her stomach got used to it, and even made her feel butterflies. Nobody knew about it, but her friend, Kelly guessed that she's totally in love, and felt that if Claire won't open about it, it's not the time, to confront. But Kelly felt that, this love could lead to something totally wrong. But she trusted in her friend.
„So… about my New Year's Eve party…" Kelly turned to Claire.
„What about it?" Claire asked while she yawned.
„You commin'?" Kelly asked with a smile on her face.
„Of course." Claire answered with a little smile on her face. „Oh about that. Could it be possible to bring someone along with me?"
„Your boyfriend? About time." Kelly answered, then she stood up and left the classroom, without letting Claire to answer.
I wish… Claire thought. She wanted that to be true. So bad that it made her feel guilty again. But this wasn't the day to feel guilty, she thought. She packed her books and notebooks together, then she went out to her locker. There was her little old notebook what she wrote every single day, to express her feelings towards him. Whenever she read back a page or two, it made her feel better, almost making it to believe, that it happened. But sadly, no. And could never happen, possibly. As she checked on her phone again the date, she couldn't believe that the last day of the year is comming soon. This was the last day of school, christmas is comming soon, and so does New Year's Eve. As she walked out of school, on her way to her bike, she tried to pull herself together. Before every happenable conversation with Chris, she has to learn what will she say. There were a lot of conversation when she fall out of her character and almost blushed so deep, that it would hurt everyone.
Take it easy… Claire said to herself. But she was so sure that it won't happen. When she parked her bike, she was suprised that her brother was home. She took a long breath then walked inside.
„I'm home!" Claire yelled as she took a step into their home.
„How was school?" Chris asked, as he walked towards her.
He was still wearing his uniform. So that means he could possibly just got home. And it made Claire really happy. She thought he looks way too hot in that uniform. She almost let her mind wander where she could just tear apart that damn uniform and explore what does that uniform hides away from her…
„Boring, as usually." Claire sighed, as she turned away to take off her jacket, and tried to cover her little face, what was about to blush, from her deep thoughts of trying to having sex with him. Not the first time, but still makes her feel embaressed.
„Since this was your last day in school, during January, I thought we could go out. I have the night free." Chris said.
„What an amazing idea." Claire smiled.
„Alright, get yourself together, then we can go." Chris said.
Claire walked upstairs to her home. Throwed her bag to the bag, and sat down on her desk. She pushed a little more foundation to her red face, to cover up what happened, but it didn't really work, so she grabbed her blush and made it even worse. But she can say it to the make up now. Kelly gave all these make up stuff to her, because Claire wasn't really into make up, until she saw all the woman collegue to Chris, and they all wore beautiful in-piece makeup. So she tryied to learn all her way up to impress him a little. About collegue's, no one seemed to be intrested in Chris, as she knew. He didn't really talked about it to her. It was all a misery. But she knew, if he would have someone more, than a friend, she would be the first one to know about it, so she didn't worry about anything at all.
After she had done with the „painting" on her face, she walked downstairs. Chris was no where to be found, so she sat ont he couch, and waited for him. And it didn't really take a long time, he showed up.
„You ready?" Chris asked.
„Ready as I ever was." Claire answered.
„What's that on your face?" Chris asked.
„Did you mean my make up?" Claire asked back, while she laughed a bit.
„I didn't know you're into that thing. You never did that, back in time." Chris answered. „Trying to impress someone?"
„Maybe." Claire said. It's you afterall, duh! Claire thought.
It wasn't that big ride to the restaurant. It wasn't even that awkward like a month ago when they've went out to grocery shopping and Kelly immediatly wanted a box of condom, to get to her. The blush on those two face. Oh god. It was weird after all, but never forgotten.
While their food was in the kitchen, Claire finally got her thoughts together, and spoke up.
„So, do you got any plans for New Year's Eve?" Claire asked.
„I have to work on New Year's Eve, in the morning. Sucks to be a police officer in this way." Chris answered.
„I thought, maybe you could come with me to Kelly's house. You know, how we do New Year's Eve at them. Fireworks, champagne, and rock music, as she likes it." Claire said.
„Only if you come with me to the closing for the year dinner on Sunday. We can have a deal then." Chris added.
„A deal is deal, indeed." Claire smiled.
Now they have two place to go. But she didn't really realize, how that day would broke her for a lifetime. But at this moment, the only thing she could admire, was Chris's eyes. And how she fallen for him that deep…
