Chapter 10: Questions

Eli's point of view:

It was tow days after mine and Fitz's argument and me and him were trying to impress her as much as possible. It was now Wednesday and I was sitting in first period English. Because it was the beginning of the year the homework was still light. The teacher Mrs. Dawes, assigned us to do a paper about our partner can you guess who my partner was? Ding ding din! Clare Edwards was my partner. Thank you Mrs. Dawes! She then excused us to work and Clare turned to me.

"It's kind of loud in here want to maybe work out in the hall?" she asked. Was I dreaming was she asking ME to go somewhere alone? I know it was just for school but still.

"Umm… s-s-sure" I replied stuttering.

"Okay I'll go ask the teacher." She smiled and hopped off her desk. I felt like someone was watching me and sure enough was Fitz glaring at me like I just killed his dog. Like seriously, who peed in his cheerios?

I turned back around when Clare was walking back with a smile on her face.

"What did she say?" I asked.

"She said it was fine as long as we don't skip class and leave our things here."

"Great. Ladies first." I said to her while making a motion for her to go first.

"Thanks." She said and blushed. She led the way over to some lockers and slid down till she was sitting down. I plopped down next to her.

"Soooo… want to play 20 questions?" she asked

"Okay but I get to go first." I smirked which made her blush. SCORE! ELI 1. CLARE 0.

'Okay ask away." She said

"What's your favorite color?" I asked. She sat and thought for a while then made up her mind.

"Turquoise. Yours? Oh wait let me guess is it… black?" I love it when she tries to be all feisty.

"No it's blue." I said.

"Since when I thought I would be black." She said astounded.

"Since the day I met you." That got her to turn scarlet.

"Anyway, it's my turn." I said with a devilish smirk and she swallowed. "Are you a virgin?" haha I got her now.

"Damn it! Why is that always one of the first questions? And yes I am a virgin." She said avoiding eye contact.

"I don't mean to pry but why?" I asked genuinely curious.

"I just haven't found the right person to share it with you know?" she said. That just made me feel down right dirty. Like I was a piece of scum or a low life.

"Okay it's my turn and I want to get off this awkward topic so…What is your favorite band?" she should know this by now my favorite band is All American Rejects.

"Jeeze Edwards I thought you would know this by now from two weeks of friendship. But it's All American Rejects."

"Who said I was your friend and they're my favorite band too." She liked them as well? I never would have thought.

"Really? I thought you were all in to that Bieber crap and Miley Cyrus shit." I said smirking. She playfully smacked my arm.

"Hey! I don't hate Justin Bieber because he has that cuteness of a twelve year old that makes you want to pinch his cheeks but that girl Miley Cyrus is a slut. I mean seriously put some pants on." She said while flailing her hands in the air. That just cracked me up. "Your turn." She said snapping me out of my laughter.

"What's your favorite animal?" I asked

"Easy my favorite animal is a giraffe." Then she put on an evil smile.

"My turn I'm only asking this one as revenge got it?" she asked and I nodded.

"Boxers or briefs?" oh my god this girl had an evil mind.

"Eager to get in my pants miss Edwards?" I asked.

"Shut your damn mouth and answer the dam question." she said.

"Niether" I said.

"So you go commando?" she asked confused. I really wanted to laugh at her expression.

"No I wear boxer briefs. If I were to go commando I might get raped in the locker room." I said joking. Then it was her turn to laugh. I cleared my throat and she stopped.

"Favorite movie?" I asked.

"Hmmmmm….I'd have to say step brothers is my favorite movie." She said. "Yours?" she asked me.

"Mine is Paranormal Activity….2." I said.

"Yours would be." She said under her breath but I still heard it.

"Well partner, I think it's time to make some final observations." I said

"Okay me first" she said like she was five.

"You are Elijah Goldsworthy. Your favorite color is blue, your favorite band is All American Rejects, you wear boxer briefs, your favorite movie is Paranormal Activity 2, and lastly but not least you think I'm your friend." She said with a smirk.

"Nice. You are Clare Edwards you like the color turquoise, you are a virgin, your favorite band is All American Rejects but you like Justin Bieber, you think Miley Cyrus is a slut, your favorite animal is a giraffe, your favorite movie is step brothers, and you know your my friend." I said back.

Then the bell rang.

"Not bad Eli. Not bad. Anyway I'll see you at Play auditions." She said with a smile before walking off.
