A Bit Uncomfortable.

Clare's cheeks were red and I smirked as she grabbed her drink.

"Thanks again, Eli." She smiled at me and I shrugged.

"No problem." Clare leaned against the counter and Fitz approached her. I raised my eyebrows.

"You know, you're pretty hot." Hell no. My fists clenched. I looked at Clare's reaction and her eyes were wide. She wasn't blushing and she looked a bit uncomfortable.

"Uh, thanks.. Do you think you could back up a bit..?" Fitz's body was inches from Clare and my face grew hot.

"What if I like this position?" He pushed up against her, even more, and I stomped forward. I grabbed his shoulder and pulled him off of Clare.

"Back off. In case you didn't hear her, she asked for you to back up." Fitz's nostrils flared and he glared daggers at me. If looks could kill, I would probably be out cold on the floor. But, I didn't let that stop me.

"And what are you gonna do?" Oh, he should not have asked that question.

"I could show you."

"Feel free." Before I could lift my fist up, Clare had grabbed my wrists.

"Eli." She whispered in my ear. "He's not worth it." I looked at Fitz and watched as Bianca slapped him in the arm.

"If he ever comes near you again, give me a call." Clare nodded.

"Gladly." I grabbed Clare's hand and left Bianca and Fitz, sitting at a nearby table. Bianca and Fitz walked over to us. I held up my hand.

"You two are on your own from now on." Bianca put her hands on her hips and Fitz glared at me. Something he had been doing frequently.

"What are we supposed to do? Walk home?" Bianca still had the gum in her mouth and she started playing with it. I cringed.

"Seriously. Just throw the freaking gum away!" I yelled. Bianca looked taken aback but she quickly regained her composure.

"Whatever. I am not walking home." Clare held my hand under the table and gave it a reasurring squeeze.

"Eli, lets just take them home." I sighed.

"Fine. That's it. And if you do anything else to break my car, Ape, I might just call the police. Wouldn't want a criminal record, now would you?" Before he could respond, I got up and started walking towards the door. Clare followed close behind.

"Why do you have to be nice?" Clare looked at me strangely. "We could've easily left them here."

"But would that be the right thing to do?" I shook my head at her, slightly smiling.

"You're too nice."

"It's just a special quality." I grabbed her hand. She looked slightly surprised but she intertwined her fingers through mine.

"Ugh, you two are disgusting." Bianca said from behind us. I shrugged, not even turning around.

"So are you. And before you get in my car, spit out the gum."

"Sure." I heard her spit and I felt something hit my back. I turned around, letting go of Clare's hand and looked at what had hit me. There was a piece of gum right where I was standing and I glared at her.

"You're charming." I breathed, sarcasm dripping from my voice.

"And you're not." I clenched my fists and walked up to Morty, unlocking my door. Everyone else followed suit and I drove out of the parking lot.

"Where do you guys live?" I smirked after asking the question.

This was going to be a great advantage.
