Chapter 2
Eli's POV
Beep!...Beep!...Beep!
My eyes fluttered open to a man in a mask.
"He's awake!" I heard him yell.
"He is?" I heard a familiar voice say.
"What happened and how did I get here?"
The man took of his mask. He had glasses on and a fine line of facial hair. He had a scar on the side of his face that I couldn't stop looking at.
"You got into an accident. A car hit your side of your car."
My memory started to come back. I had just finished my fight with Clare. I looked to my side and I saw her sitting there with her head down.
"How's Morty?" The doctor looked at me confused. "My car. How is he?"
"Oh. Well the impact was pretty bad considering the other car was going 50 miles per hour. He was a criminal running from the cops and the cops saw the accident. They called an ambulance and the man got arrested."
"Where are my parents?"
"They went to a radio fair they said. The funniest thing happened. I called the number on your contact list under your mothers name and Bullfrog answered. Is bullfrog your uncle, cousin?"
"He's my dad." I muttered.
"THE bullfrog is your father? Oh my gosh! It is an honor to be your doctor Mr. frog or do you hate it when people call you that Mr. uh…"
"Eli. It's just Eli."
"Yes sorry Mr. Eli."
"No mister. just Eli."
"Yes sorry Eli. Usually, my patients are really fond of me because I like to tell them a little about myself so they don't feel uneasy with me." I nodded. "My name is Dr. Kamar James. I am married with a son named Andrew. He's about your age, how old are you?"
"Im 17."
"Yes. He's around your age. I recently graduated from Medical School which means I am quite young. I am 35 years old. I listen to rock music hence my love and passion for your father. With all due respect Eli, you probably hate it when people ask you this but may I know, how is life like living with Mr. Bullfrog."
I rolled my eyes. Really?
"Its same old. Same old. He's just a regular old guy that looks after his kids."
He nodded.
"Is there any questions you'd like to ask me?"
"Yes. Actually there is. I don't mean to sound rude but how did you get that scar on your face?"
"Eli?" I heard Clare say. I glared at her.
"It's okay sweetums. I have no problem with it. Sister?" he asked.
"EX girlfriend." I said putting emphasis on ex.
"Ouch. Anyways, I was recently divorced to a who I thought was a wonderful woman. We had a son together but things got bad and we divorced. The day before me and her had agreed to get divorced we had a fight and she threw a knife at me. It almost cut my head off but luckily, it just cut the side of my face off. After that she told me that every time I look in the mirror, I'll always remember her. I told her then I guess I'll never look in a mirror again. The next day we signed the papers and I lost custody to my son. He was a great kid Adam." I head shot up.
"Adam?"
"Yes that's my son's name."
"Adam Torres?"
"Yes! How do you know him?"
"He's my best friend. We go to the same school."
"Oh my gosh. How is he?"
"He's great. Just same old Adam."
"Does he still read comics? Him and I would reserve Sundays just to read comics together."
"Yeah, he still does. He reads them with me now."
"Oh. So you're into comics?"
"Of course. Only an idiot wouldn't be." We laughed and smiled. I actually like my doctor. He's pretty cool. I wish he was my dad."
"Well I have another patient to take care of so I better get going. The remote next to you is there if you need anything. Nurse Helen will be coming in to check on you shortly."
"Thank you." I said. He put the clipboard in the bin at the end of my bed and walked out.
"BULLFROG'S SON IS IN THERE AND I'M HIS DOCTOR!" I heard him yell. I heard an applause come after and soon died down. I looked up at Clare.
"What are you doing here?" I asked coldly. She looked up at me
"What do you mean? I'm not allowed to be here?"
"I didn't think you'd come after our fight."
"Of course not. You think I'm gonna stand there and watch my boyfriend get lifted into an ambulance and just turn around and go home?"
"That's what you should've done."
"I'm sorry i care so much."
"Yeah, well me too." i looked up at her. she brought her chair closer to me.
"What else do you want me to say? i've apologized so many times. I'm sorry for going to see him. I didnt think it'd effect you so much."
"Obviously you did if you kept it from me for three months."
"I didn't know how to tell you."
"You lied to me. I trusted you and you lied to me."
"I know and I'm really sorry!" she said. she had tears in her eyes.
"Why Clare? Why'd you go to see him?"
"I wanted to find out the truth."
"What else is there to know? May I remind you, he put a gun to my head!" I was yelling now and tears were coming out my eyes to. I tried to fight them off but they wouldn't stop.
"I think there's more to it. I just wanted to know what really happened."
"You were there."
"In my head the pieces just don't fit."There was a long pause between us.
"I told you about my past. My troubles, heartaches, everything and you turn around and do this?"
"Look, I know what I did was wrong and im sorry but im not gonna stand here and apologize so many times for it to not go anywhere. Im sorry that you haven't had such an easy life but I don't think you're the only person in this world that has gone through life struggles. You have a dead girlfriend, some people have dead wives! You've been bullied when you were younger, everyone was. Some people commit suicide. I sound like a heartless monster right now but you sound just like one when you can't accept the fact that im not visiting KC for me but I'm doing it for you!."
"Did I ask you to go see him?"
"You don't get it do you?"
"No. I don't."
"And I guess you never will. "
A nurse came in. I guess she was nurse helen.
"Hello, uh..." she said picking up the clipboard. "Eli. How are you?" she asked. She had blonde hair and was wearing the typical nurse outfit. She looked fairly young, probably 25 ish."
"I'm feeling okay, I guess."
"Are you hungry?"
"Not really. Thank you for asking though."
"It's nothing. It's just the standard procedure." she smiled a dimpled smile and I couldn't help but smile back. "Your heart rate is regular, and you dont seem in pain. Are any of your body parts hurting?"
"No, I feel just fine Ms..."
"Helen. Just call me Helen. No Miss or Misses. It makes me feel old."
"Same here."
"Well I guess I'm done here. Just press that button if you need anything."
"Thanks Helen."
"You're welcome Eli." she said. She marked something on the clipboard and but it back at the end of my bed. She walked out of the room and I sighed.
"I think I should go." Clare said gathering her things. I looked up at her. She looked up at me for a last time and walked away. I watched her as she left and jst remembered my things were at her house. I pressed the button and Helen came back in.
"Yes Eli?"
"Can you go get that girl that just walked out please?" i pleaded. She walked out and I heard her call Clare's name. She didn't return but Clare did.
"Um...my things are kind of at your house." I said. she looked at me with a confused look.
"That's what you...never mind. I'll drop them off sometime today."
"Thanks. How are you getting home by the way?"
"Why do you care? I'm not your girlfriend anymore right?" she said but whispered the last part. I saw the sadness in her eyes. She sighed. "Well, I'm gonna go now." She said. She turned around and left the room. I wanted to call her back and work things out but I couldn't bring myself to do it. It's only been 1 minuete and i already missed her. I let the tears fall freely since no one was in the room with me. My heart rate kept decreasing and i closed my eyes and watched my tears fall onto the pillow. The best think that probably happened to me is now gone.
...
Clare's POV
It's been three weeks since me and Eli's fight and we haven't talked yet. I went over to give him his things and that was the last time I saw him. I guess he had to stay in the hospital for a little longer. I got off the bus and entered the Juvenile Facility.
"Hey Clare."
"Hey John. How are you today?"
"Same old same old. And yourself?"
"Same here."
"Well you already know the way so i don't have to escort you anymore."
"No but thank you." I walked down the hallway and into the main room. The guys were there working out and I saw one of the few friends I made walk up to me.
"Hi Clare." he said.
"Hey Clinton. How are you?"
"I'm good. Visiting KC again?"
"As always."
"Oh okay. Well bye."
"Bye" I said. i walked into KC's room and saw him getting dressed and saw his thing. "OH MY GOSH!" I yelled. I closed the door and saw all the guys look at me. i smiled sheepishly. i knocked on the door.
"Come in. I'm dressed. Unless you don't me to be?" i heard him say. I opened the door and rolled my eyes at him.
"Sorry about that. I should have knocked first."
"Yeah." he said.
"So how have you been?"
"Same old, same old. I almost got caught texting you again." I laughed. This was probably the hundreth time he told me that.
"Be careful next time."
"So how are things with you and Eli?"
"He still hasn't talked to me. I was gonna stop by the hospital but i figured he probably didn't want me there."
"Don't say that. He's probably thinking about you this second."
"Or flirting with Helen." He looked at me confused. "His nurse." he mouthed an O.
"He um... came to see me today." he said sheepishly. My head shot up.
"He did?
"Yeah."
"What happened?"
"We just talked.."
"Why'd he come?"
"I guess to talk about you. He asked me how you've been and have you been visiting me. I said you were okay and yes you have but not as much as before. He vented to me a little too. You should here what he says about you. He loves you, a lot." I smiled a little. He did miss me.
"What else? What he vent to you about?"
"He was just telling me about how he really wants to go back to you and work things out but he can't bring himself to do it because he's just scared."
"Scared of what?"
"That things won't go down as he planned and mess eveything up. He told me that he loves you too much and it scares him. He wants everything to be perfect for you. He even told me he forgave me. He said that even though he should want to kill me, he's learning to forgive and forget."
"That's it?"
"Yeah."
"Can I ask you something though?"
"Sure."
"You trust me right?"
"Yeah."
"So can you tell me why Vegas night happened or how?" he sighed.
"It all started with Fitz. He found out me and you last year and said he had a job for me. He was gonna pay me and my family really needed the money and plus with the baby and all, I really needed the money. He offered $500. He knew how much I liked you and wanted to help me get you back. He knew you had a boyfriend so he set up this plan. He told me to get you to go the dance with me and he'd finish the job. I said what do I have to do and he said just get her to go to the dance with me and he'll handle the rest and you'll be all mine. No Eli to bother us. . I told him that wasn't gonna happen. That you were all too wrapped up with him. He said to trust him and I did because Fitz wasn't such a bad guy and I felt as if I could trust him after all he was helping me get you back. When I told him that Eli sent him our conversation to you and that you wouldn't go the dance with me, he said I could "do the honors." I asked well what are the honors and he told me to go the dance and shoot Eli. I knew this was a horrible idea so I tried to back down but he wouldn't let me. He kept reminding me of you and how much I wanted you so I gave in but little did he know that had I had my own plan. I did put the gun to his head but I didn't load the gun. I wasn't gonna shoot a dude. especially the guy you care about the most. I wasn't that stupid. I just went through with the whole putting the gun to his head because I was a little mad that you weren't going to the dance with me. That part, I actually wanted to happen."
"What about the whole trying to become a better person?"
"Part of the plan but right now, after all of that went down, I REALLY want to become a better person."
"What about your conversation with Fitz?"
"Also part of the plan. I said that to keep him stalling until the dance. I knew about your purity ring."
"I bet Fitz was pretty mad that you didn't go through with the plan 100%?"
"Yeah. Beyond. If you didn't guess, he didn't give me the money so out of all of that I got 6 months of Juvie and no money. I told him off and said to never talk to me again and we parted ways. I'm actually glad he's not in my life anymore because when I get out of here, I don't wanna return and if we were still friends, I would be right here again."
"That's really good KC."
"Thanks."
"And look, like I say all the time, I'm really sorry for what happened." I just nodded. I looked on my phone and realized it was kind of late.
"I better get going. I still didn't get started on my homework."
"Oh. Okay." He said. I looked up at him and hesitantly hugged him. He hugged me back and I actually smiled. I think a good friendship is being formed. we let go and stood there awkwardly. I don't know why but it was weird after the hug.
"Well, I'm gonna go. I'll text you." i said whispering the last part.
"Okay." he whispered back. I laughed and walked out of the his room.
"Bye John!" I yelled.
"Bye Clare."I left the building and stood at the bus stop. I took my phone out of my pocket and looked to see of I missed anything. I had two missed calls from Alli and one from my mom. I decided to call my mom back. Alli could wait.
"Hello?" she answered.
"Hi mommy."
"Oh Clare. Hi. How are you?"
"I'm okay. Just regular old Toronto. How are you?"
"I'm okay. Just regular old Florida." We laughed. I missed hearing her voice. "Oh, I've got some great news."
"What?" I said excited. The bus came and I got on and sat down.
"Darcy called me. She said her unit gives her breaks and she's using this one to visit. I told her about everything, The divorce, the moving to Florida, the family part 2 and she said she'd come and stay with you for a day and come down to Florida to see me and go back to Africa." I smiled. Darcy was coming over!
"Really? Yay!" I said. I couldn't lie, I really missed her.
"Yup. So get ready. She'll probably be home in two days."
"Okay."
"So ho you been holding up?"
"I've been holding up good."
"Has your father tried to get in contact?"
"No. Last time I saw him was the day before you told me about his second family."
"I know it's hard for you nd I'm sorry to say, it'll only get harder."
"It's okay. I don't really mind him being gone."
"That's good to hear honey. Well I gotta go. I'll be sure to stack up on these phone calls more often."
"I hope you do. I miss you."
"Aw honey, I miss you too. I don't know how long I'll be here but I'm not missing your graduation that's for sure."
"That's a while from now. You should be back even before then."
"Um...I guess you didn't hear my message from a while ago."
"What do you mean?" I got off the bus and started walking home.
"I left you a message saying that I'll be here for a while longer. Grandma got sick and I need to stay with her. Plus, with the whole divorce case, I just don't want all that to pile up on you."
"So you mean I'll be living on my own for more then a year?" I asked a little to happy
"Yes but consider this a privilege. I trust you Clare. If I hear one complaint, I will get Uncle Will to come live with you."
"Okay mom."
"Alright babe. I Love you."
"I love you too!." I said.
"Bye."
"Bye." I closed my phone and ironically reached in front of my house. I took out my keys and opened the door. I went inside and closed the door behind me. I turned on the Kitchen light that illuminated the living room. I looked over at the Living room and saw Eli sitting there with his head down. "Eli?" He looked up.
"I'm sorry. I should've called but I knew you wouldn't answer so I took my copy of my key and came here and waited patiently for you to come home." He kept looking at me and I didn't respond. I didn't know what to say. All my feelings came rushing back. I looked into his eyes and I could see we were thinking the same thing. I ran up to him and threw my arms around him. He hugged me back but even tighter. I started crying and I heard him silently sobbing.
"I've missed you soo much." I said leaning back to look at his face. I was on his lap now.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know what I was gonna say to get you back. I jut knew I couldn't wait any longer and I had to make things right. I'm sorry that I overreacted. After analyzing the whole situation I realized that what you did wasn't that bad. Being the amazing person I fell in love with, you went to see if there was a good side to it and I'm sorry for not listening. I guess all I could think about was you being so close to a person so dangerous."
"And I'm sorry for lying to you. I know i shouldn't have went to him and kept this away from you. You were right."
"I Love you Clare.
"I Love you to Eli." I leaned down and kissed his lips. I missed this feeling. I missed kissing him, being in his arms and feeling the whole world stop when it was just me and him. I missed feeling his lips on top of mine. I opened my mouth and felt his tongue roam my mouth. Our tongues met and wouldn't let go. This kiss was both Passionate and hungry. I pulled away and looked into his eyes. I smiled at him and smiled back. This was how it was suppose to be. Just me and him and nothing in our way.
"So, May i come back to live with you?" he asked.
"Of course you can. You didn't even have to ask." I said.
I finally had my boyfriend back.

"Aren't you having a child with that delinquent?"
"No. I had a miscarriage."
