Hey guys! Delilah here with my new story! This is my first Degrassi fanfiction. And in this story, it takes place after Vegas Night. It doesn't follow the show though. And Clare isn't in this. All of the other characters, for the most part are. Sorry if some of them are OOC. I think I covered everything? Well. Tell me what you guys think!
Disclaimer: I've been forgetting to do these. So, here goes. I don't own anything! Unfortunately. :/
Anyway. On with the story! (:
Hi, my name's Destiny. And today is my first day at my new school Degrassi. I just moved here because my mom got a new job out here. I don't know anybody and I'm going into my junior year of high school. Well, hopefully this isn't as bad as I think it's going to be. Oh, and did I mention it's like, the middle of the semester? Well, isn't this just lovely.
I wake up, I straighten my hair, put on some eyeliner and lipgloss. I put on this red polo shirt with tan khakis. Apparently this school has a dress code. Something about some "crackdown" because a whole bunch of shit happened at their school dance? I have no idea. But either way, dress codes suck. Ah well. No sense in complaining about it. With that, I make my way to my car. I'm 17, so I have my license and a car. Thankfully. My parents got me a cute little black car. It's nothing special. But it works. I get out my keys open the car door and throw my bag in the passenger's side. I sit, put my seatbelt on and drive to school.
It was easier then I expected to find a parking spot. After getting out of my car and locking it, I make my way to the front of the school. I'm almost at the front steps when I notice some kid bullying another kid.
"You better shut your mouth unless you want me to kick your ass, you little shit." I hear the bully say. 'Oh hell no.' I think to myself as I make my way over to them.
"Hey dickface. I suggest you back the fuck off, unless you want my fist to meet your face." I say.
He turns around and raises his eyebrows when he sees me.
"And who exactly are you, little girl?" He says with a smirk on his face.
"Well my name is Destiny. I'm new here. Bullying doesn't sit well with me so I highly suggest you leave," I pause to look over at the kid getting bullied, "I'm sorry, what's your name?"
"My name's Eli." He says with a shy smile.
"Well, hello Eli. Anyway. As I was saying. I highly suggest you leave Eli alone, unless you want me to beat your ass." I say with a smirk of my own on my face.
"May I ask why you care so much about Eli?" He asks.
"He seems like a nice kid. I don't particularly like seeing nice kids get bullied. And I don't like it when assholes like you think it's okay to pick on nice kids for your own amusement."
"You think he seems like a nice kid? Well, I guess you didn't hear. How he killed his ex-girlfriend Julia. And how his other ex-girlfriend Clare moved because she couldn't deal with him."
"Everyone has baggage. His past isn't any of my buisness. He seems like a nice kid. So I'm going to defend him no matter what you say. So, as I said before, back off or get a punch in the face by yours truly." I say with a smile.
"Whatever. Just be careful. Wouldn't want him to kill a cute girl like you. By the way, the name's Fitz. If you're ever interesting in having a good time, give me a call." He replies as you walks over to me and hands me his number with a smile.
"Don't make me vomit. Like I would ever want to waste my time with a guy like you." I say as I rip the paper his number is on and throw it on the ground. "Come on, Eli. Let's get away from this asshole." I say with a smile.
Eli doesn't say anything and just walks up to me. "I didn't...actually kill Julia.." He says.
"Hey, you don't have to explain anything to me." I say.
"Are you afraid of me?"
"Why would I be afraid of you?"
"Because of what Fitz told you..." He said and averted his eyes to the ground.
"Like I said. Everyone has baggage. Everyone makes mistakes. That doesn't mean you're a bag person."
"...Thanks."
"No problem. Hey, I have to get to schedule. See you later?" I say.
"Yeah sure." He says with a smile.
I walk to what I think is the main office and walk up to the main desk.
"Can I help you?" A nice elderly woman asks me.
"Yes, uhm. I'm new here and so I need my schedule." I say.
"Oh sure. What's your name?"
"Destiny."
"Oh yes. Here it is." She answers and hands me my schedule.
"Thank you." I say as I walk out of the school and try to find my class. I guess I wasn't paying very well attention to where I was going because I ended up bumping into someone.
"Ow!" I hear them say as we fall to the floor. Me on top of them.
"Shit. I'm sorry." I say as I stand up and help the person up.
"It's fine. Hey, are you new here? I haven't seen you around." The boy asks.
"Yeah. I'm new. I just transfered here. My name's Destiny." I say.
"Oh cool. I'm Adam. Do you need any help finding your class? You look sorta lost..." Adam says.
"That'd be great actually. Thanks." I give him my schedule and find out that we actually have some of the same classes. I walk to our history class with him while we chat about random things. What the school is like. Why they got this whole "crackdown". And many other things. He seems really nice. And he's cute too. Hm. Maybe today isn't going to be so bad.
We get to our class and I take a seat next to him. The class goes by rather quickly, thankfully, I was never really a fan of history. We walk to our next class today, Algebra. The next few periods go by rather quickly, since Adam and I talked pretty much the entire time. Finally it's 10th period and lunch. I tell Adam that I'll meet him in the cafeteria because I just have to drop a few books off at my locker. I walk to my locker and put my books away and head to the cafeteria.
Eli Point Of View.
"Eli, you have to meet this girl. She seems like just your type. She's nothing like Clare. She's awesome. She's really nice. She's got a killer body and she's got a gorgeous face. She's got black hair and blue eyes. She's so nice too. She's new here. Her name is Destiny. She's in your grade. Have you seen her around?" Adam says.
"Yeah...I'm pretty sure I know who you're talking about..She's the girl that defended my ass when Fitz was about to deck me in the face. She probably thinks I'm a pansy. Fuck." I say and shake my head.
"Oh come on dude. She doesn't seem like that type of girl. I'm sure she doesn't think that. Hey, want me to talk to her for you?" He asks with a hopeful look on his face.
"Uhm. Sure. But don't make me seem to desperate or anything. I mean. I don't even know her. I don't want her to think I'm creepy or anything." I say.
"Relax man. It'll be fine. She's cool." He says and we continue to walk to the cafeteria in a comfortable silence.
'God. I hope I didn't fuck up my chances with her. I don't even deserve her so who cares? I fuck up every relationship I'm in. Maybe this is a sign.' I think to myself with a sigh as we sit down at our normal lunch table.
Destiny Point Of View.
'Shit...How am I supposed to find Adam in a cafeteria this big?' I think to myself with a sigh.
"DESTINY! Over here!" I turn around and see Adam waving at me.
I walk over to him and sit down.
"Destiny, you know Eli right?" Adam says and gestures to his friend.
"Oh yeah. I met him this morning. Hey, has that kid said or done anything to you?" I say.
"Nah. After this morning he backed off." Eli replies.
"Oh okay. Good. I'm glad. That guy is an ass." I say with a laugh.
"Yeah. Thanks for this morning. But listen. I'm not normally such a pansy. I don't know what happened. I don't want you getting the wrong impression of me. I'm no coward."
"No problem. Hey. It's fine. I didn't think you were a coward or a pansy. That Fitz guy is like, twice your size. I don't blame you for freezing up." I say with a smile.
"But you didn't. Just about every girl I know would have run away screaming if they got into a confrontation with a guy like Fitz. Why is that?" He says.
"I'm not like other girls. It's as simple as that." I say with a shrug.
A few minutes pass without any convorsation. The silence wasn't awkward, it was nice.
"So, Destiny. What are you doing later?" Adam asks.
"Unpacking all my shit probably. Why?" I say with a laugh.
"Maybe me and Eli could come over and help you?" He says.
"Oh sure. That'd be great. Thanks. Maybe after we're done, we could do something not-so-boring. Say...a movie or something?" I say.
"Sure. A movie sounds great." Adam says.
"What kind of movie?" Eli says.
"What kind do you want to watch?" I say.
"A horror? Say...The Unborn?" Eli says.
"Uhm...Sure. But I must warn you. I'm a baby when it comes to scary movies. So, I'll probably scream. A lot. Just for the heads up." I say with a shy smile.
"Have no fear! Eli and I will protect you from the monsters! Right Eli?" Adam says cheerfully.
"Yeah..Of course." Eli says with a smile.
"Haha. Thanks guys." I reply with a giggle.
"Hey Eli. You wanna go get Destiny your sweatshirt? She looks cold." Adam says.
"I...Uh. I'm fine. Really. You don't have too." I answer with a blush.
"No really. It's fine. I'll be right back." Eli says with a smile.
"So Destiny...What do you think of Eli?" Adam says as he arches his eyebrows suggestively.
"I uhm. I don't know. " I say.
"Well...Do you think he's hot? He's single you know." Adam says.
"I..Yeah...I mean...He is...Really...Hot..But don't tell him I said that! That'd be reaally embarassing. And that'd make after school really akward.." I say.
"What if I told you he thinks you're sorta..oh I don't know...gorgeous?" Adam says with a smile.
"Really?"
"Yupp."
"Wow."
"Mhm. So. Do you think he's a pansy? Or were you just being nice when you told him you didn't?"
"Ha. No. I really don't think he's a pansy. "
"Oh. That's good. He was freaking out before because he was all worried that you thought he was a pussy..."
"Awe. But why does he care what I think of him?"
"Well. I was telling him how cool and awesome you were before, and I think he might have a little crush on you."
"Awe. He's adorable." I reply with a smile.
"Who's adorable?" Eli says as he sits back down at our table and hands me his sweatshirt. I smile and say "Thanks" and put it on. He smiles back at me and says "You're welcome."
"So now, who's adorable?" Eli says.
"This dog that I saw at the petstore. I was just telling Destiny about him." Adam says.
"Oh yeah? What was his name then?" Eli says.
"His name? Uhm. It was uhm...Spot. Yeah. His name was Spot." Adam says.
"Right. Adam you're lying skills haven't improved. Now what were you guys really talking about?" Eli says.
"I was just telling Destiny how you have a crush on her, and you think she's gorgeous. Oh and that you were worried about her thinking you were a pansy before. And she said that you were adorable." Adam says with a smirk.
"...Are you serious?" Eli says with a dumbfounded expression on his face.
"100%." Adam says with a huge smile.
"Adam. I'm going to kill you." Eli says.
"Oh come on Eli. Don't you think you're over reacting?" Adam says.
"No. Not at all. Because of you Destiny probably thinks I'm the biggest creep in the entire world! So thank you so much for that!" Eli says and rolls his eyes.
"Uhm. Did you guys forget I was here...?" I say.
"Uh..." They both say.
Then the bell rings. I grab my bag and get up and walk over to Eli and lean down to whisper in his ear.
"For what it's worth, I don't think you're a creep. And, I think hot, and maybe I have a crush on you too." I walk away and once I'm at the cafeteria doors leading back into the hallway I look over my shoulder and smile and wink at Eli before I proceed to my next class. English.
I get there just before the bell, finding this classroom was suprisingly difficult, and I sit in one of the only empty desks. I sit there for a few minutes until I feel someone tap on my shoulder.
"Hey Destiny. Looks like you, me, and Eli are all in the same English class! How cool is that!" Adam says from the seat next to me.
I turn around and see Eli sitting in the desk behind me, smiling at me. I return his smile and turn back around just as the teacher starts talking.
English class went by rather fast, thankfully. I walked to my locker to put my books away after telling Adam and Eli to meet me at my locker after they went to theirs.
After a few minutes I saw them walk up to my locker.
"Hey. You ready to go?" Adam said.
"Yupp." I said as I closed my locker.
"Well. Eli can't just leave his car here..So. Do you want to follow him to his house so he can change and whatever, then we'll stop at my house so I can change and stuff, then Eli will follow you to your house?" Adam said.
"Yeah sure." I said as we started walking towards the parking lot.
I saw Eli head over to a herse. 'Does he seriously drive a hearse? Well. That's different. Haha.' I thought to myself.
"This is Morty. My hearse." Eli said gesturing to his car.
"Wow. You seriously drive a hearse? That's so cool! Does it ever freak you out? Yaknow, since there were dead bodies in there and everything?" I say, curious.
"Thanks. And no, it doesn't because Morty's new. No dead bodies have ever been in him before. Thankfully." Eli says with a slight smile.
"Alright. Well. I don't know about you two but I really wanna get out of these clothes, so how about we get going?" Adam says.
Eli and I both nod and walk to our cars. Adam walks over to my car and hops in. He tells me he already told Eli he was going to ride with me just to make sure I don't get 'lost'. Because I could really get lost following someone right? 'Boys.' I think to myself with a sigh.
It only took a few minutes for us to get to Eli's house and Adam's house and for them to change. And before I know it, we're driving to my house. (Eli was wearing black skinny jeans and a Dead Hands band t-shirt. Adam had on normal jeans and a dark plue sweatshirt.)
We pull into my driveway, get out, and head towards the front door. Before we go inside I say, "I'm just warning you guys. My family is...strange." Then I proceed to open the door with a laugh.
"Wow. You're house is huge!" Adam says.
"Yeah. Wow." Eli says.
"Ha. Thanks guys. " I reply.
"What? Am I chop liver over here? No hello or anything?" I hear and turn around to see...
"JEREMY!" I say and run and jump into his arms. He wraps his arms around me and spins me around. He puts me down a moment later. He glances behind us and leans in to whisper in my ear, "I think you should tell your friends about us. The one in black seems to be getting jealous."
I turn around and look at Eli and Adam. 'Jeremy's right. Eli does look jealous..Hm..'
"Eli, Adam, this is my brother Jeremy. Jeremy, these are my friends, Adam and Eli." I say and gesture to each of them as I introduce them.
They all exchange 'hellos' and handshakes.
"Well...I'm gonna go put on some regular clothes. Because I really can't wait to take this freaking uniform off. So. You guys go ahead and make yourself at home. I'll be down in a minute." I say with a smile as I head for the stairs and up to my bedroom. 'Hm. What to wear?'
Meanwhile. Downstairs. Eli Point Of View.
Uh. I think Destiny forgot to mention she had a huge terrifying brother. I mean come on! He's gotta be at least 6'2! And not to mention 200 pounds of raw muscle! Holy shit!
About 15 minutes pass of the 3 of us just akwardly sitting on the couch, not saying anything. 'What is taking Destiny so long?' I think to myself with a sigh.
"Why don't you guys go see what Destiny's doing? She's taking an awful long time." Jeremy says with a laugh.
Adam and I just nod and walk upstairs. We hear singing coming from one of the bedrooms so we follow that. We come up to a bedroom door that's slightly opened and we push it open since we hear Destiny singing.
We walk in the find her, her back facing us, singing into a brush and dancing to something playing from her Ipod Dock, in her bra and panties. She had black and purple zebra striped boy shorts on. And as she turned around to face us, I noticed she had a matching bra with a cute little ribbon in the middle.
I don't think she even notices we came in. She's too lost in her singing. And as she started dancing along with her singing, I couldn't help but notice the way he boobs bounced up and down, and the way she seductively swayed her hips. If she keeps this up, she's gonna end up giving me a hard without even knowing it.
After a few moments, I hear Adam pretend to clear his throat to try and get her attention. She hears it, and opens her eyes and smiles brightly at us.
"Hey guys! Sorry I'm taking so long. I always put on music whenever I get dressed and what not. And I get side tracked..A lot. And I just love this song." She replies with a laugh. (After a few seconds I realized the song is Walk Through Hell by Say Anything.) Totally oblivious to the fact that she's in her bra and panties. Not that I'm complaining.
"Uh. Destiny..? Uhm. You're...uh." Adam says and gestures to her clothes, or lack there of.
"Huh?" She says before looking down. Her eyes widen and her head shoots back up. "Why didn't you guys tell me I was practically naked for the past like, few minutes you were here?" She says and tries to cover herself, much to my dismay.
"Uh. We...didn't notice?" Adam says.
"Because that's a believable story." Destiny says and walks toward her dresser.
"Want us to get out...?" Adam says.
"No. It's fine. You've already seen me in my bra and panties. I don't think you seeing me put clothes on is going to make you uncomfortable. I mean, unless it does. Then you don't have to stay and watch me get dressed. But I'm not uncomfortable. You guys can take a seat on my bed over there if you want." She says and digs through her droors.
Adam and I walk over to her bed and sit down. Adam proceeds to look at anything but her, her TV, laptop, ipod, bookcase, ect. While me, I can't keep my eyes off of her. As she pulls her black skinny jeans up to her thighs, without covering her nice ass, and bends over to pull them over her feet, then proceeds to pull them up and zip them. She also puts on a black and white checker board belt. For her shirt, she grabs a simple black v-neck shirt. All in all, she looked hot.
"Okay guys. How do I look?" She says and as she turns around and runs her hand through her black hair. Then she proceeds to put her hands on her hips and shoots us one of her beautiful smiles.
"You look...great." Adam says.
"That's an understatement." I say quietly. Apparently Destiny heard me because I saw her blush a little.

Destiny Point Of View.
"Thanks guys. So what do you guys wanna do now?" I say as I walks over and sits on the bed with Adam and Eli.
"I dunno. " Adam and Eli both say.
"Are you guys hungry...?" I say.
"I could eat." Adam says.
I nod and jump off the bed and go downstairs with the guys following behind me. I walk into the kitchen.
I walk into the kitchen and find my mom cooking. "Hey mom, what's for dinner tonight?"
"Spaghetti." She says and turns around. "Oh? And who are these gentlemen?" She says and gestures toward Adam and Eli.
"Mom, this is Adam and Eli. Adam and Eli, this is my mom." I say and gesture to each of them.
They exchange 'nice to meet you's' and then I say, "Mom, do you mind if the guys have dinner with us?"
"Nah. It'll be nice to have some company." She said.
"Okay thanks mom." I say and head towards the living room and sit down on the couch.
"So, do you guys like spaghetti?" I say.
"YUM. I LOVE spaghetti." Adam says.
"Yeah. I like it too." Eli says.
I nod my head and we sit in silence for a few minutes. Then Eli says, "Shouldn't we be helping you unpack?"
"OH! Riiiiiight! I totally forgot. I mean, we don't have too. I pretty much have everything unpacked and put away. So, I can do it on my own later tonight if you guys wanna do something else." I say.
"No really. We wanna help." Adam says.
"Okaay." I say and head towards my room, with the guys following close behind. I go over to the corner of my room and grab a box I have there. "Could you guys grab those 2 boxes over there? These 3 boxes are all I have left, thankfully. So it shouldn't take too long." I say.
They get the boxes and set them at the foot of my bed and we sit down on the ground. Taking random things out and start putting them in piles, depending on where I'm going to put them.
"What is this...?" I hear Eli say. I look over and see him holding up a small black piece of material.
"Let me see it." I say and he tosses it over to me. Upon closer expection I realize that it's my Halloween costume from last year. I was a Playboy Bunny.
"OH! This is my Halloween costume from last year! I was a Playboy Bunny." I say with a blush as I hold it up for them to see. "I had tights, heels, ears and everything." I add with a smile.
"I bet Eli would love to see that on." Adam says.
"Shut up!" Eli says in a hushed whisper and elbows Adam in the ribs.
"Maybe if you're lucky." I say and wink at Eli, causing him to blush.
About 20 minutes later we had sorted through everything and had everything, for the most part, put away.
"Guysssssss! Dinner's ready!" I hear my mom yell from downstairs.
"Hungry?" I say as I head towards the stairs, knowing they were following me.
Dinner was uneventful, suprisingly. Now we were all just sitting there talking. Me, my mom, my brother, Adam, and Eli. We were talking about everything. From football, to school, to tattooes and piercings, to music. Everything.
As my brother told a joke I took a sip of my water. My brother walked over to me as he said, "You know what's funnier than that joke..? This." And he tipped my cup, causing me to spill it all over me.
"You're such an ass!" I say and playfully smack him. I walk over to the sink to put my cup in there and grab the kitchen towel to somewhat dry myself off, when I got an idea. Without my brother noticing, I grabbed the kitchen hose and walked over to him. "Hey Jeremy!" I say and as he turns around I spray him right in the face.
"You little!" He says and starts to chase after me.
I throw the hose into the sink and run away. Since I was still drenched, I tried to run away on our hardwood floors without eating shit. More difficult then it sounds. I turned around to see that Jeremy was gaining on me so I tried to speed up my pace. Bad idea. I turn a corner and lost my footing and slipped. "FUCK!" I yell and then everything went black.

Eli Point Of View.
As me, Adam, and Destiny's mom waited for Jeremy and Destiny to stop chasing each other we just sat in silence and laughed at their crazy chase. After a few minutes we heard Destiny yell, "FUCK!" then we heard a loud bang. We all rushed in to the living room where we saw Jeremy walking Destiny over to the couch. 'Omg. What's happened? Holy shit. Holy shit.' I think to myself.
"What happened?" Destiny's mom says, panicked.
"I..was chasing her and she took a turn to fast and slipped and hit her head. It knocked her unconcious. And her head is bleeding a little." Jeremy says, frightened.
"Should we take her to the hospital?" Destiny's mom says.
"I don't know. Wait. She's starting to come around." Jeremy says, slightly relieved.

Destiny Point Of View.
The next thing I know, I wake up on my couch in the living room. With Eli, Adam, Jeremy, and my mom all surrounding me.
"Uh...What are you guys staring at?" I say as I try to get up. "OW. OW. Ow. Ow." I say and sit back down on the couch and hold the back of my head.
"What's wrong?" Eli says.
"My...head hurts... Shit...What happened?" I say and try to stand up again. "Wait. No don't tell me. I fell and ate shit. I remember now. Uh.. Oops." I say with a laugh. I start to walk towards the kitchen.
"Where are you going?" My mom says.
"To get some water...?" I say and proceed to walk over and, of course, I slip on the water Jeremy spilled on me before and fall backwards. On my head and back. Lovely.
"Ugh." I say and try to get up.
"Wait. Here. Let me help you." Eli says and tries to pick me up.
"No no no no no no no!" I say and start to squirm.
"What's wrong?" Eli says, worried.
"Destiny isn't really a fan of being picked up." Jeremy says with a laugh.
"Oh come on. Let me just carry you up to your room. Please? You're freaking me out. I don't want you to fall again. Your head is already bleeding..." Eli says.
"Oh jeez. My head is bleeding? Seriously?" I say and rub the back of my head to feel that it's wet. I bring it up to my face and see that it is, in fact, covered in blood. "Lovely. I bring over new friends and this is what happens." I say and shake my head.
"Come on. Let me bring you to your room." Eli says and moves toward me. I sighed and let him pick me up, bridal style. I don't know what it was about him, but Eli made me feel safe.
Before we headed upstairs, Adam said he had to go home to do homework or something. I think he had an alterior motive though. Since he was asking me about Eli and what not before. I think he's trying to give us 'alone time'. Ohboy.
Eli heads toward the stairs with me in his arms and I burry my face in the crook of his neck. I could hear his heavy breathing, since we were so close. "I'm not too..heavy for you am I? You seem to be out of breath..." I say, curious.
"Are you kidding? You're like a feather! Uh...You just...Make me nervous. That's all." He says with a blush and looks away. 'He's adorable.' I think to myself.
We get to my room and he sets me down on my bed. He walks over and closes my door the walks over and sits in the chair by my desk a few feet away. "Come sit." I say with a smile and pat the seat on my bed next to me. He walks over and sits on it.
"Are you alright?" I say.
"Oh. Y-Yeah. I'm fine. Just..nervous." He says while he lets out a deep breath.
"Here. Come here. I'll help you relax a little." I say, with an innocent smile. And he turns so that his back is facing me. I run my fingers up and down his back, in a soothing way. After a few minutes I hear him let out a relaxed sigh. "Better?" I say as I continue with my semi-back massage.
"Much." He says. "But if you keep this up. I might fall asleep on you. So. Why don't we do something else? How's your head?" He says as he turns around to face me.
I feel the bad of my head and feel a small, but slightly deep, cut. "There's a cut, it's not very big, but it seems semi-deep. But, it's not bleeding anymore. So, that's good." I reply.
"Good. Does it still hurt?"
"Nah. I'm usually good with pain. Just the initial pain hurt. Not much after that. And after I woke up. But that's about it."
He didn't reply. He just nodded his head.
The next thing I know, Jeremy comes barging through my door. "What are you guys doing in here? With the door closed?" He exclaims.
"Jeremy. Shush. Nothing's going on. We're just hanging out. And if I want to have my door closed, I can!" I say.
"And is that any way to talk to your loving older brother? By the way. Mom said that it's time for Eli to go home. She said 'It's getting late.'" He says and shakes his head.
"Alright alright. Goodbye Jeremy." I say and hop off my bed and proceed to attempt to push him out of my room.
"Oh come on, Destiny. You and I both know you can't push me out. I'll admit you're strong. But you've got nothing on me, lil sis. Oh and. Just thought I should mention I am now able to bench press 350 pounds. Herego, I can snap any of your little friends if half, if need be." He says and I can see him eye Eli.
"JEREMY. I just met Eli this morning. He probably already thinks I'm crazy. I don't need you threatening him!" I say as Jeremy picks me up and places me on my bed next to Eli.
"I'm just stating the facts, sis. I don't wanna see you get hurt...Again." He says and I can see his eyes soften.
"I can handle myself, thank you very much." I say as he heads for the door.
"That's what you said last time." He says, quietly. Though, since I could her him, I'm sure Eli could too.
"GET OUT." I say and throw a pillow at him as he closes the door.
"Sorry about that. My brother..Is an idiot." I say and shake my head. Unable to meet his eyes out of nervousness. Now he's probably the one that thinks I'm a weakling.
"He cares about you..a lot. It's good though. I think it's...nice. Even though he scares me." Eli says with a shy smile.
After a few minutes we both glance at the clock and see that it reads 10:30.
"I should probably head home now." He says and gets up.
"Oh. Yeah. I guess. Here. Let me walk you out." I say and follow him down the stairs.
Once we got to the front door we walked outside and I closed the door behind us. We proceeded to walk towards Morty. Once we got to him, Eli stopped and turned around to look at me.
"I had a really good time tonight." He says with a smile.
"I'm glad. I did too." I say, smiling back.
For a few moments we just stood there, gazing into each others eyes. When, all of a sudden, he reaches out and takes a lose piece of hair and tucks it behind my ear. He doesn't move his hand away though. He places it on my neck and slowly and gently, guides me towards him as he leans forward. He's not forceful though, he does it slow enough that I could pull away if I wanted too. But I don't, because I want this. As we get closer I close my eyes and our lips meet. His lips are warm and soft. Just as I thought they would be. We kissed for a few minutes and I placed my hands against his chest and ran my finger up and down his t-shirt. Our kiss was innocent and sweet. We broke apart after a few moments and gaze into each others eyes. I move my hand away from his chest and he moves his hand back to his side and we just smile at eachother for a little while longer.
Then he says, "Goodnight, Destiny." And then he leans in and kisses me one more time. It was chaste, but still just as sweet. And he walks over to Morty. "Goodnight, Eli." As he opens his car door I yell, "Wait! Eli! Do you want your sweatshirt? I forgot to give it back."
He smiles and says, "No, you can borrow it." And gets into his car and I watch him drive away.
I walk back inside with a huge smile on my face and run upstairs and shut my bedroom door before anyone can ask me what happened. I change into my pajama pants and a lose band-tshirt. Then climb into bed. I plug my phone in and I'm close my eyes and drift off to sleep, with a smile still plastered on my face. 'I guess the first day of school wasn't so bad after all.' I think to myself right before I fall over the edge of unconciousness.
And that's it! How did you guys like it? That was only chapter 1 though. I'll be updating this, hopefully quite often. I'm not sure if I'm happy with this. Hm.. I don't know. Tell me your thoughts!
_Love Delilah.
