Clare's Pov

Once I had gotten up. I got ready for school. Brushed my teeth, combed my hair. I picked out a black crop top with white flowered pattern, and A white skirt and silver ballet flats. I applied some light makeup. Ate breakfast and headed out the door. Alli was waiting for me. We always walked to school together.

"Hey Alli"

"Hey Clare! Feeling better?"

"Yeah" I smiled "so much better"

"well thats good ClareBear"

I laughed, I despised that nickname

we walked to school. I opened my locker and there was a piece of paper. It was folded so I unfolded it, it read "So?"

Thats all. I was wondering who this could be from and remembered Eli. What he did yesterday. I got my books and headed to media mersion(1)

The day went along slowly. Finally It was english class. I sat down and waited for Eli. he sat down. He was completely silent.

Eli walked out the door. I grabbed his arm

"ELI!"

"oh. Hi Clare"

he looked sad.

"Eli whats wrong?"

"You hate me Clare."

I was confused, how could I hate him? He was so sweet writing that for me.

"I do NOT hate you Eli"

"You dont?"

I pulled him into a hug

"I never could"

I leaned in to kiss her
