Hey guys!:) Sorry I haven't updated, busy again! Busy, busy me! Hahaha anyway, I am wrapping this story up so this is probably my second to last chapter, but I have a very romantic and cute idea for this chapter. I am looking forward to starting my next story!:) The idea for this chapter reminds me of one of my favorite movies….;)
Disclamer: I don't own degrassi, but oh lord I wish!
Eli POV-
Thinking of the night coming to an end made me hurt inside. I want to be with Clare everyday, every minute. Something inside me just screams for Clare. I had one last thing planned for Clare, and this is going to be my favorite. It is not the biggest thing, but this is something that came straight out of my heart. Clare makes me want to become a better person, and I love her for it. I looked down at Clare and brushed a piece of hair out of her face. The moonlight was reflecting on her face making her look angelic, wait…she always looks like that. I shook her lightly, her blue eyes shyly opened and she let out a loud yawn. She looked so cute when she yawned. I chuckled lightly and said "Wake up sleeping beauty." I felt bad for waking her up but I was so excited to do this one last thing. She stood up and lifted up her arms and arched back stretching.
Clare- "Geez Eli, couldn't let me sleep a little longer?" a light smile stretched across her face.
Eli- "Well I have one more thing that I want to do, so come on. I don't mean to sound rude but I am really excited."
Clare- "Ok, just give me a second to fully wake up."
I stood up and looked down at the lake, the cool breeze felt amazing and it was very soothing. Clare came behind me and hugged me from behind. I turned around and kissed her on the forehead, and I wrapped my arms around her. I wanted to stay like this forever, but I knew that this night would have to come to an end just like everything else.
Eli- "Awake yet, Edwards?"
Clare- "Uh-huh" She let out another yawn, and I grabbed her hand. I squeezed her hand again to the words 'I love you'. She looked up me with calm eyes and was smiling and blushing.
I helped her off of the boat and onto the dock. We walked up the rocky hill, and I led her to the dam that was just a few minutes away. We could see Toronto city lights across the lake. We were on the dam that was on the other side of Lake Ontario. This was the perfect moment. Clare looked down at the water and then back up at all the bright lights of the city. I took her hand and walked her to the middle of the dam.
Eli- "Clare Edwards, would you care to dance with me?"
Clare- "Sure." A gigantic smile grew upon her face.
I grabbed her back and she set her hand up on my shoulder so we were in a ballroom pose. We swayed slowly back and forth contently. Even though this wasn't the most upbeat thing that we have done all night, this was the best thing for me. This was the sweetest moment and I felt a special connection, and all I could do was smile. She said that there was no music, and so I started to hum I Want to Hold your Hand by The Beatles. That was the only song I could think of on the spot. She smiled and put her head on my shoulder and we continued to dance.
We stayed on the dam swaying in the breeze for I don't know how long. All I could think about was how amazing Clare was.
Eli- "I love you, Clare."
Clare- "I love you too, Eli."
